That had no knowledge of the impression made on His Excellency's mind by the statement of Mr Grimes, the despatch of the 29th April 1879, which was first published on the 31st July 1880.

The point that was bearing was the freedom of Ex-prisoners from control by the Police after the execution of a conditional pardon.

As regards their destination, confining myself now to Australia, it is remembered to the best of my belief.

I did not intend my general statement to be accepted as proof that the government's aid was such as if the passage had been paid by the Treasury.

I can only repeat that my answer was a perfectly general one given in response to a general question.

14. Six days after the receipt of the above enquiry, I received another general question in an official letter from the Colonial Secretary on the 20 October 1879.

I am directed by the Governor to request you to furnish information that some time back - possibly in 1876 - P. Davis had gone to Australia, his passage being paid by a friend on his release on conditional pardon.

Please furnish a short report explaining what is done by the Police with a prisoner after His Excellency has signed an order under Ord: 9 of 1857 or 4 of 1871; and when he is pardoned under Ord: 10/18/0.
