The Laundry

The Laundry is manned by convicts also. The clothing of all the prisoners is here thoroughly cleansed and dried. So clean is everything that not the slightest speck of dirt can be found upon any garment. The soap is also made in the laundry by a convict from materials left from the prison bill of fare. When I went through the prison, Joe Paul, the unfortunate prisoner spoken of in my last letter, was foreman, I think, but his health has so badly failed, I learn that he has been removed to other and lighter work.
