Dublin Daily Express - Tuesday, September 24, 1895

On Saturday a reporter ascertained that Oscar Wilde, who is in Wandsworth Prison, is employed in making mail bags, and that his demeanour since his removal there from Wormwood Scrubs has been in every way satisfactory. Wilde is accorded the special privilege of taking exercise by himself, and when in chapel he occupies what is known as the debtors’ pew, which is isolated from the other prisoners. The prisoner has lost considerably in weight, but has remarkably good health. Taylor, Wilde’s quondam friend, remains at Wormwood Scrubs.
