hour,
to do so; and he did avail himself of
of the offer, and left the
prison at nine o'clock in a cab,
d which
Craven-street, Strand, attended onlyby one or two near
relations and private friends. On leaving the prison gate he
shook hands warmly with the governor, and expressed his
deep gratitude and thanks to that gentleman for his cour-
tesy and kindness to him while under his care. The prison
authorities deemed it inexpedient to enforce the full rigour of
theirnn I,z
powers in his person, by thrusting the prison cress
ar-
nm, *it such a step might tend to produce violent
symptoms of the mental disorder under which, it is now
confidently believed he is labouring; neither has he been
confined to the strict limits
of the prison regimen, and in-
deed in all other respects he has been treated not only with
great consideration, but
great indulgence. However, his
personal appearance has undergone considerable change for
the worse;
his once florid complexion has entirely disap-
peared, and a sickly paler has supplanted it. Up to midday
on Friday he refused to take any breakfast, such as tea,
cocoa, acs., stating that that meal with him usually con-
sisted of cold meat and brandy and water which of course he
could not have is the prison, ,
