He tells me there was a tremendous row when your escape was discovered.

The warder, and every soldier who had been on duty that night, were arrested and questioned.

The warder was the one first suspected, on the ground that you must have had assistance from without.

He said that if you had, he knew nothing about it; and that, as you knew all the soldiers of the prison guard, and as he had heard many of them say it was very hard, after fighting as you did on their behalf, that you should be kept prisoner, any of them might have furnished you with tools for cutting the door and filing the bars.

This was so clear that he was released at once.
