Love Creek Penitentiary

Dear Mr. Cardinal,

I am an enormus fan of your colum, and I Was
extreamely excited when someone told me you had written
an artacle about me in the Sunday Record. I have to
admit, tho, after reading it I was very disappointed
upset me that you made so many factual errors. Normally
you seem so much more on-the-ball!!


Other information:
This is what Joe has to say about it on the old Joe Hill forum:

“The Lady Rests” and “Collaborators” aren’t mentioned on my website, mainly because they’re lousy stories and I usually try to pretend they don’t exist. The fact that they were published at all only tells you that the editors at those particular magazines were kind and merciful people who also desperately had to fill some space.
