Prison Governor

Famous quotes containing the words prison and/or governor:

    Oh who is that young sinner with the handcuffs on his wrists?
    And what has he been after that they groan and shake their fists?

    Oh they’re taking him to prison for the colour of his hair.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
