Last leaf blank. 8vo. 23.5 cm x 14 cm. <br/><br/>This an interesting factual account regarding the early days of the prison an era when it wasn't quite impregnable edifice that now stands; in 1854 75 of 520 incarcerated individuals had escaped without recapture. This situation caused Governor John Bigler to write: "Gentlemen: Having learned from various reliable sources that quite a number of escapes have recently occurred from the State Prison which to some extent is in your charge I deem it my duty respectfully to invite your attention to the section of the law regulating your duties. These escapes permit me here to remark give great force to allegations daily and publicly made that the prison building is insecure and that its management is not such as to fully accomplish the object of its erection in prevention and punishment of crime." However since the place is still going strong one can be reasonably confident the governor's concerns were addressed. Rare; Not in Cowan Greenwood nor Rocq. Not in the LoC on-line catalogue.
