The band practiced in the gun shed
all evening under the direction of Sgt.
! Harry Newell. It was a lot of noise
for such a confined space, bufc now
that we have the far end of the gun'
shed fenced off ithe cell block, we
call it) any member that misbehaves
from now on will be thrown into this
crow bar hotel, while the band plays
all evening. How is that for torture?
