Sir,
me and to the welfare of the Prison service, it therefore cannot be denied but that I am more interested than any other person in its result and to have deprived me of the opportunity of being present at your enquiry appears to me unnecessarily harsh. I beg to protest against the injustice of this decision and to respectfully request that you will be kind enough to append this letter to your proceedings.
I have to (sign) Geo. L. Tomlin, Superintendent.
