The system of management pt 13

Two considerations are here stated as being those
with reference to which the system of management in question so
appointed approved and accepted of had been formed – viz. the personal character
of the appointed manager and the favourable opinion of
of the proposed construction of the building: one other as
being that one which with reference to which it had to which the appr acceptance bestowed upon it had
not had reference, viz. the principles upon which
Prisons have hitherto been conducted in this country.
