In the event no lodging facilities are available for any per-
son so transferred to the custody of the Department, he shall
be returned to the county jail for lodging overnight. In any
event, the Department may return any person to the county
jail at any time and it shall always return any such person
not later than the day preceding that on which his sentence
terminates. It shall be the duty of the warden or other person
in charge of the county jail to transfer to the custody of the
Department any prisoners designated by the Sheriff of Anne
Arundel County pursuant to this section and to accept custody
of prisoners returned by the Department at any time. Any
prisoner escaping or attempting to escape from the custody
of the Department shall be subject to the same penalties which
may be by law provided for prisoners escaping or attempting
to escape from the county jail to which he had been sentenced.

permitted by the Sheriff or Warden to be performed for the
benefit of any private person or persons but the same shall be
performed only with respect to property used, or persons
engaged, in the lawful activities of the County Jail.
