no effect on him and he continued pacing his cell all night long. He eats almost nothing, although he is allowed to have food sent to him from the
outside. Another prisoner cleans his cell. He is not allowed to smoke and is allowed to receive only a single visitor daily.
Further startling revelations in connection with the Wilde case are hinted at. It is said that Alfred Taylor has determined to drag
down with him all he can if he is prosecuted, and that this will involve one of the most prominent men in England whose name has been freely whispered
about in connection with the scandals which have just become public.
