Photograph used for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "Above is the picture story of the kidnaping and slaying of Jess F. Dunn, warden of the state prison at McAlester. Inside the gate, upper x, four desperate convicts seized him and with prison made knives forced him to the east prison gate. There the warden was forced to order guards to throw down their guns. Outside the gate the convicts seized a car and went north. Finding a bridge out, they turned back southeast on a diagonal road. Accosted a block east, they again turned north until they were stopped by another missing bridge, marked by an "X." There the fatal gunfight took place. This picture was taken from an airplane flown by Carl Winstead of Oklahoma City just after the break."
