All of these matters We're taken up
in the investigation and probed as
thoroughly as the time and circum-
stances would permit.
The prisoners who had made the
complaints to Inspector Fitzgerald re-
iterated most of them before the
board. Other evidence, both by prig-

a part of the complaints, but refuted
others.
