San Francisco Chronicle - Monday, June 17, 1895
LONDON, June 16. - All manner of stories are circulated about the prison life of Oscar Wilde, including persistent reports that he is in a state of mental and physical collapse. The fact is that he is perfectly sound in mind and body. At first he suffered acutely. While Taylor took his sentence as coolly as an old hand, Wilde was terribly cast down and was in a state of semi-collapse in his cell, prior to his transfer to Pentonville. There he rapidly recovered and something of the jaunty and rather defiant demeanor, which he displayed at his first trial, reappeared. He to all appearances is reconciled to his fate. His conduct is good, he gives little trouble and a[?]y the [?]es which become less irksome in consequence.
