There had been a remand, then assurances on the part of a harassed father, and the young man had gone out to bear the White Man's Burden overseas. It had been so managed as to make a remand necessary in a town where I was a perfect stranger, and where I could not hope to get my liberty on bail. I know this is only a prison for criminals who are charged with grave offences, while they are awaiting their trial, or under remand, but the law here affords criminals many means of delay. |
