-nation And Whereas
so long as none but offences of
the same mischief
are comprehended
under the same punishment
of guilt is kept sufficiently disated from the
of innocence And whereas Justice concurrs with
Mercy in requiring that delinquency should be
rather by previous warning than by ex-post
facto ad condemnation Be it enacted that at
the instance of the said Governor the Court of King's
Bench may from time to make rules and orders,
declaratory of such acts on the part of the prisoners
as in consideration of the local circumstances
of the said Panopticon Penitentiary House or
of any other place in which under the authority of the said Governor the said Prisoners
or any of them may come occasionally to be
employ'd shall be deemed Escapes, or Attempts
or Preparations towards escape: in which said

be contained a specification of the manner in which
the same shall be promulgated: [+]2 [+]2 of which acts
an example is
contained in the

that it the same would be deemed an an escape, or attempt or preparation
towards escape he or she shall be convicted deemed guilty
of such escape attempt or preparation as the case is although
