But even the genial Dr. Zeller and his barless windows and lockless
prison proved in time to be enervating to such a restless being as
"Fainting Bertha." So, during June, 1908, she made no less than three
attempts to escape. She was, however, apprehended in each case before
she reached Peoria, and returned to the asylum. The authorities
declare that she was really playing for theatrical effect rather than
from any desire to get away from Bartonville. Be that as it may,
the fact remains that if she desires to get out of Bartonville she
probably will, as she is the most resourceful criminal of her sex
known to the authorities.
