PRISON PORTRAITS.
RECOLLECTIONS OF CONVICT LIFE
IN NORFOLK ISLAND, Arc.
Editou Witness.— As you published in the Witness some time ago portion of the " Recollections of Prison Life," by Garrefct, alias House, seriously reflecting on the character of the late unfortunate Mr Price, I ask, in common fairness, that you will kindly publish the enclosed : Burgess' opinion of Garrett, with the addition also ot the report of a Special Commission appointed by the Victorian Government, which completely exonerates Mr Price irom the serious charges made against him. I send also a letter from Mr Duncan, late Inspector-general of Prisons in Victoria, who was an officer under Mr Price in Norfolk Island. I think, in justice to the memory of Mr Price, and to bis brother, Sir Rose Prico, Bart., Cornwall, you should publish the enclosed in the Witness. — Yours, &c, Oa'e Interested.
