1288 Patriot to be Released AP  11/21/2060 11/21/2010

Under an historic agreement with the Imperial Chinese governnment, dozens of US citizens in Chinese jails are to be exchange for Chinese prisoners.

Among those to be released is James Lockwood, a.k.a. the superhero Patriot, who was imprisoned by the Old Regime for espionage and terrorism in 2041. "I can't believe it's finally over!" said tearful wife Martha, 53.

President Illom expressed his hope that, while the cultural and political differences between the USA and China present difficulties, this will be the beginning of increased cooperation between the two nations.

Among the prisoners to be exchanged is Wild Bull, who damaged much of the Port of Colonial Bay and sank a ship in 2058.

Patriot Street was named after James Lockwood following his trial. Plans are being laid to hold a street party there in celebration of the hero's return.
