Keeper Ho Wakefield
To Receive the foregoing and Keep them 18 Mons. &c.
[The next entry is dated 10 August 1849]
NB - Despite the different spelling of Foster, I am fairly sure this is our Michael, as the name following his, Geo Benjn Cowell, was that of his accomplice in the 1849 burglary!
NB - The block of names for HS. York is preceded on the same page by blocks of names headed "Lancaster Contd.", "Mayor of Liverpool", and "HS Lincoln". I have not looked at the pages before this, but they appear to record a large movement of prisoners from other jails, to that at Wakefield.
