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 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 of</del. setting aside it the
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.
