Description | Typescript letter to George Orwell from Wayne [Joseph] Husted, 25451, addressed from Michigan State Prison (and thus, perhaps, identical with George Santayana's correspondent, although the number is different) ackowledging a gift of a book, perhaps '<i>Down and Out in Paris and London</i> which is mentioned in connection with the similar problems which occur "each and every day in an institution of this kind," (1ff). Associated with the letter is an article on prison life by WH, '<i>Prisonitus</i>' by WH, sketching the life of inmates (4ff). |
