Panopticon as large as
convenient, others also

59 or 7.

J.B.'s defence of the open
mode good as to other
matters, it will not
be rendered inapplicable
by the above two
objections. p.3.

§13 60 or 8 V. 7

1. Expence of conveyance
being paid for
once for all is small
in comparison of the
difference between
maintenance and construction
together
upon a large and do
upon a small scale
as above. (In 44, 49 46.) p.3.

61 or 9 V. 8

On the contract plan

Country Panopticon, say
3: viz. for East, West,

68 IV. 3 10

In all times & places
forced labour has been
a source of wealth:
viz even in families
