Lodging

S. 23. Wooden ambulatory
Houses one
or two as they chose
to have them

Attendance

Poor one's might be
taken in graces or
on low terms on
condition of waiting
on the rich ones.

Market

The Convict Butchery
and Garden

The Poor one's to
attend the Foundlings
and to wash
sew &c for the rich
ones.

Furniture

To be imported if or the
use paid for.

The Paramour to
have liberty to visit
and sleep there.
But dream whether
for decency it should
not be a rule that
none but Females
should be admitted?
He would then have to
come in Woman's Cloathes:
and the Porter
would be instructed
accordingly.

Querie. What if
Married women are
brought who have
eloped from their Husbands?

Garden

For walking — there
must be a common
one for the Establishment:
as they could
not be permitted to
walk in the General
one for fear of their
gathering the fruit,
mixing with the Convicts
&c.

They might have
their own children
so they were not in
a condition to make
legal proof of maternity
for
where legitimate
paternity. [+]

Maternity might
be ascertained by
a paper sealed up
containing name
of Mother and Father
so that if the child
turned out any thing
extraordinary its parentage
might be communicated
to the Parents.

In this case they
might be required
to pay extra and
they would probably
be willing to do it.

This particular
Garden would come
into the General
Garden Plan &
form a part of it
Guard J. B. be
having a key.

The Fee must
be the same, Child
or no Child, and
whether it lives or
dies — payable on admission — that there
may be no temptation
to destroy or
neglect it — on the part
of the Parents.

Inducements ostensible

1. Preservation of
their delicacy

A step in this case
will be a much less
strong objection to
marriage — as
besides that there
will be no temptation
for Prostitution;
that sensibility
will not have
been blunted by
the habit of ignominy.

Parents themselves
might in
this case be the
introductors, since
they could afford
the best cloke for
the disappearance
of the child

The pleasantness
of the place, and
character of the
Manager would
give this establishment
the advantage
over the advertising
private ones. N.B.

as nobody no women can complain
of them, without
betraying herself thus
are out of the reach of
the popular sanctions.

Especially as
the education of
the children would
be so public and
the success of it so
well known.

No reason why
Money should not
be taken, since
the benefit to the
individuals is not the
less, and the more
money is taken
the more the benefit
may be extended.
Foundling Hospital
a case in point.

Sumptuary Laws

To prevent jealousies
&c in the Society
Expensive articles
of dress to be either
prohibited or laxed

have a uniform?
This will the more
effectually prevent
there being known
but will be an extra
expence. It will be
picturesque for the chapel &c

Printed Book of
Rules to be given to
each.

This establishmt.
will help the circulation
of the Panopticon
money.

The advantage reaped
from them will naturally
dispose the
Institutor to give the
preference with regard
to Profession to those
who pay best, but
it must unavoidably
depend upon talent
and the matter must
be taken upon his
credit.

Mem. To go to the
advertising Women, to
inquire about their
hours.

Houses Side Walls

Inside instead of wainscoatin
dado high,
Laminated boards, the
laming crossing at right
angles. These on account
of their thinness will
not fly and crack like
common deal.

Could not they be prevented
from shrinking
and swelling by being
impregnated with Oil?
It should be the cheap
Coal Oil. Vegetable Oil
may grow mouldy Linseed
Weather

State that Apprentices though
of an age to earn their
keep are not so desirable
because on account of
their acquired habits
and connections they
can not be kept so economically.

If boiled in the Oil,
that is if the Oil be brought
to a heat greater than that
of boiling water, the moisture
i:e: water of the
lamina or board may be
got out entirely — the oil
taking its place.

Heat it then over with
chalk to diminish the
tend inflammability.

Two windows one in
each The door an ordinary
door not sashed
but the window glass continued
over it so that the whole
sash makes but one window.
