probation. The Junker had charge of the corridors with two other officers, one of whom was at the time away at his breakfast. The prisoner was simply detained in Gaol, failing to find security for his good conduct, and was released yesterday by His Excellency, vide Memo. 100. Being a well-conducted man, he was, at his own request, permitted to do light work in the corridors instead of remaining in his cell.

I am sorry this should have occurred so soon after the former case, also after such a long immunity from such cases, and I think if Turnkey Teyan's case had been disposed of properly, the present case might not have happened.
