Out of Sing Sing and into a waiting limousine popped Richard Whitney, paroled after three years, four months of prison for grand larceny when his brokerage firm failed. His luggage: a Gladstone bag, a wicker hamper, a cardboard box, two sacks holding miscellaneous belongings. In his jeans: a check for $183, most of it his earnings at 15¢ a day as clerk in the Keeper's office. Immediate prospect: stewardship of 25 cows on a Cape Cod farm. The rules: don't change jobs without permission; keep regular hours; stay away from firearms, liquor, convicts, Wall Street.
