common footing containing <add>untried criminals as yet untried
accomplices and confederates men of similar character can not be excluded
because before trial a no man can be precluded
from consisting his defence with whosoever may
present themselves in the character of his friends:
neither b can they be subjected to examination
in the way of questioning because such examination would be inconsistent
with the freedom of admission which is
deemed essential to that purpose. No: my
Lord: the last place in which a criminal felon
who does at large is to be found will think of trusting himself, will be my
house.
Allow me here to mention a circumstance, which
in this point of view will may perhaps be deemed
tolerably conclusive. If exclusive of setting aside it the contrivance
of the plan, one man more than another should
be supposed to have a just view of its probable
effects in this respect it should be Mr Nepean
who has had so much occasion to consider it. T'other
day in conversation, I want a little bit of ground
says he, in the country within reach of London, to
build a house upon: do you happen to know of any
such thing? Yes says I, I do: there is a board
up advertising of ground to be let on a building lease close to the premises, just on t'other side of
one of the roads that bounds them. Oh, is there
says he then I will go and look at it: that is just the spot for me; its vicinity to Panopticon
is the single
attraction would be a recommendation to me.
