Q. What heed did you give to these complaints, and how soon after they were made to you? A. In regard to bedding, the defect was remedied the same day the complaint was made, and since that time I have heard no further complaints. Since the commencement of my term of office, I have purchased additional bedding, and have given particular attention to the bedding; that the quantity cf bedding is now sufficient and clean, and that every cell has been renovated and the bedding washed and cleaned. In regard to food, the remedy was made immediately. In one case I found that the complaint was unfounded, as the convict had thrown his meat under the table. I have never heard of any complaints in regard to clothing. Q. Do you personally purchase the provisions for the convicts? A. I do; and have done so in every case since I have been agent. Q.

Do you suppose these purchases have been made by you upon as f...
