on the tith April List, after having been nearly a month
In the Infirmary. From the evidence it appeared that he ,
eras receited into the Prison in August last, under a I
sentence of 1
penal servitude. His character had I
0 years'
been very good for a convict, and he had only been
punished once, in October last, when be had three days'

that time int' to the thnl of April he wasoffand onamongst '
the ~,,, pla:ning rick, and in the month of March he coin-
