FORE:��Had it not been for him, things would have had a bad look by this time.��Coarse brown clothes of plainest cut were furnished him. His flute was taken from him, and he was deprived of all books but the Bible and a few devotional treatises. He was allowed a daily sum, amounting to twelve cents of our money, for his food��eight cents for his dinner and four for his supper. His food was purchased at a cook-shop near by, and cut for him. He was not permitted the use of a knife. The door was opened three times a day for ventilation��morning, noon, and night��but not for more than four minutes each time. A single tallow-candle was allowed him; but that was to be extinguished at seven o��clock in the evening.
