Difference
It was originally determined by the gaol authorities to give Oscar Wilde six hours a day on the treadmill, but owing to his present weak
state of health the task has been changed to oakum-picking. It was believed that he would refuse to labor, but he performs the task as efficiently as his
health will permit, and the authorities are satisfied with his behavior. The governor of the gaol denies that Wilde has manifested any tendency to
insanity.
