Summary:	The joy of Queen Victoria's golden jubilee is juxaposed with the pain of Erin's imprisonment inside "an imperial institute" (a prisoners' cell). Despite Erin's declaration of loyalty, she has been sent to cell number 87 by the governor (and Prime Minister), Lord Salisbury, who is depicted peering around the door of the cell. Erin points to the document that lies at the foot of the plinth on which Queen Victoria's bust rests, which has the following words printed on it - "Jubilee Coercion Bill/Evictions/Closure/Poverty".
