Description

They were assembled in a large open mess shed, which forms one end of an oblong area having the officer's quarters at the opposite end, six Boxes on one side and the Military barracks on the other. In the rear of the Boxes are two cells for solitary confinement and a few other small slab huts, and there are small huts in the rear of the Military barracks for constables, messengers, &c. The whole place is remarkable for cleanliness and order very creditable to the officer in charge.'
