W. H. ALEXANDER,

Acting Colonial Secretary,

"20. Approach of Boats to the Convict Establishment.

"L is of great import that no secret communication or delivery of articles shall be made to the Convicts, it is therefore needful that a rigid rule, as rigidly carried out be established that no boat shall go alongside the Hulk, and that there be but one authorized landing place, for whatever purpose or by whatever person, at the Convict Establishment.

"With this view a shelter shed shall be erected at the extremity of the landing pier, and all persons coming from Victoria or other place shall land thereat, if required being conveyed therefrom to the Convict Hulk or the Floating Station by the boat attached to the Establishment. After persons have landed at the pier, if the boats bringing them are required to wait, the said boats shall withdraw to a buoy placed for this especial purpose; if not required they shall leave without delay.

"This rule is to be strictly maintained so that members of the Gaol Staff or Police detachment including the Water Police returning from Victoria, the Medical attendant, Visiting Justices, Visitors to the Gaol Staff or Police, or privileged Visitors to Convicts, all come within the regulation."
