"Royal Sasson" Convict Hulk
Stone Cutters Island
26th April, 1864.
Gentlemen,
As you were pleased to rule yesterday that I could not be present at the investigation you are making into the circumstances connected with the recent escape of Convicts from this Island, I beg to state that in my opinion your decision towards me as the Head of this Establishment, was unfair and at variance with the custom of the service. The subject of Enquiry is of the utmost importance to
The President and Members, Comparing Board of Enquiry.
