Panopt. Compensation Claim III Contract
§. 7. Other Rates

(6) 6 Observations

5. Observation the 5th. In the instance of these two last Rates
being the two Southwell Rates the smallness of the scale, in as compared with the largeness
of it in the Claimants case, is will be found found particularly observable.
In the Southwell Prison, in the abovementioned selected and the most favourable week, the
number of the Prisoners is not stated as more than 26,
of which Number 3 are un are stated as unemployed
leaving 23 for the number employed no more than 23.

as being the Year ending on the 24th day of June", but
no year mentioned, the average number in custody is stated
as no greater than 20, average number employed, no mor greater than 13 3/4.

Shoemakers, 3: weekly earnings 14s 6d; 10s 5d; and 8s: Frame-work-knitters,
4: weekly earnings, 11:3 1/2; 9s; 8s:10d, 8s.1d
T Put together, these make 7 out of the 23 workings hands:

the Claimants Prison might, as above, have been reasonably
expected to be the amount of daily earnings.
