1 Prisoner only

Mr

Mew

199

10. Crank can be made harder or easier.

2 men

are in

hard labor now

ordered by the Colonial Surgeon

to drill, instead of shot drill.

They were used

freely but it was

found that the Ordinance did not permit it

and I gave it up. The Chinese dislike it

very much as they are looked upon separately. I would keep this as female-

ment for Gaol officers, and not for hard labor. I do not recommend the Crank as a hard labor punishment

Firstly. It is costly, each crank costing £12

Secondly. The men using it

interfere with the sanitary arrangements

of the Gaol

One man at

a time

instead of the whole men. I think we can find labor.
