The date of my
Examination

for printing the
Report will
serve to shew the

My The great business/endeavour difficulty
was saying
but the truth
to avoid saying
the whole truth
and in short to
say as little as
could be said without
absolutely betraying my
own cause. Accordingly My
stud great care
throughout was
to impersonalize
and generalize
every thing. The
Committee seeing
that the business
would not altogether

amongst other things
that Battersea Rise
was promised to

after amusing me for
four months, informs
me that if I can

these I could find
means to secure

Temporary Penitentiary

was put up and
thus save them from
the contamination
of the Hulks.
