Evans Tries An O-Level
Will the injured McLeery be able to help the prison officers trace Evans?
The injured McLeery had the question paper in his hand. It had a photocopy pasted on the last blank paper of the question paper. It showed whole of the plan of the escape. It was instructed in the paper to go towards Newbury. So with the help of these instructions, McLeery would help the prison officers. They would spot Evans driving along Elsfield way, but would miss him at the Headington round about. “Make your way to Neugraben.” It was a code for Newbury. They got the clue and followed the route accordingly.
