'An answer to the letter I wrote to the Argus about Dunedin Gaol appeared to-day in the Argus signed “Robert Stout” the letter was ably written & I received in it a severe handling. Quantities of works performed & Prices charged for some were given & the correctness of the Gaoler’s report confirmed in a most satisfactory manner. Yet "A man convinced against his will" "Is of the same opinion still".'
