[convict] : [letters]

'A fine day. In the Gaol this morning a number of letters were found which were thrown over the wall for a prisoner who was discharged to take away. They were more serious than usual as they asked for articles to be supplied to facilitate escape of some well known vagabonds convicted last Sessions. I showed the letters to the Sheriff & called with the letters at the Detective office.'

Century: 1850-1899     Reader/Listener/Group: John Buckley Castieau      Manuscript: Letter
