Title	Henson, William n.d
Abstract	Note from Eugene V. Debs to Theodore Debs, n.d. Tells Theodore Debs that Henson had a ten year sentence in the Federal Penitentiary in Atlanta, Georgia until he assaulted a guard in an escape attempt and received another ten years. Writes that after Henson was captured he was kept in solitary confinement for eighteen months. Says that he first met Henson after he came out of solitary confinement.
