This was the kind of jail where we were to pass the rest of our life. The stout white man whom we had seen was the head of this establishment and had been in-charge of it from the time the new jail had been built. His name was Mr. Barry. He was a model jailor. He had spent the greater part of his life among the most notorious criminals of India, and had so much experience of their criminal tendencies that there was no place in his intellect for any of the ordinary human qualities.

Except the convicts, he could not mix with any other person, English or Indian; he did not like to go to them, nor did they like his society. The other petty officers selected from among the convicts — jamadars — cringed to him so much that he had come to regard himself almost as an emperor, and would say that within the jail he was the Great Lord. His twenty-five years’ life among the convicts had shaped his thoughts to resemble theirs. Day and night he would talk or crack jokes with them or hear their complaints about one another.

1
The jailor was a kind-hearted man.
2
He was a worshipper of the Great Lord.
3
This jail was built 25 years ago.
4
It was built on the top of a hill.
