Letter from Frank 'Parky' Grace to Gloria Xifaras Clark
Description:
Now a resident of 10 Block after a vent found loose in his cell, charged with destroying state property and planning an escape. Since the Aug. 6 incident in 2 Block, many threats have been received. "I've resigned myself to the fact that there is a strong possibility I may die in here. I don't want to but there are these never ending contradictions. Myself and the others talking to the f.b.i., state police, and the D.O.C.'s agents didn't help matters." In ten block he has a window and can see the stars, rain, birds. 'There's peace up here, no t.v.s radios, etc... It's great. Something else, it's a lot cleaner than two block. We're locked in our cells 24 hrs a day."
