The March1922 official report lists Harry Drew in List1 of convicted prisoners or parolees. The government entry reports Conspiracy and violating the espionage act, etc. a term expiration or parole status in the named roster. Imposed terms, projected term-expiration dates, parole eligibility and intervals on bond are different measures; none is entered as a complete actual custody total. This attributed government entry is retained alongside the independently established individual chronology. [PDF7] The official report individually records June17,1921 release on bond or by court order. This is an accomplished physical-release event, distinct from parole eligibility and projected expiry. The sentence date is not automatically treated as original arrest or complete continuous prison admission. [PDF7]
