At Portland lie came iii contact with convicts from all

convicts talked very little ld their past doings ; their

nor would they indulge in Imsne talk; but they would be
pleased to talk about what they had learnt in school, and
what they had rind in books, and they went about their
work cheerfully and willitrey. Ile lii not mean to say
that some did not get punishaml for breach of the prison
regulations, but in general their c bet was good, and
very far from what William Rowe would make one
