site of the Penitentiary Establishment, will
not have to pass nearer than the distance above
mentioned, to either of those Houses. Persons going
from London to either of those Houses, can not, with
out going out of their way, set foot on any of
the four Roads by which the spot in question is
surrounded, — So much for bad company.

Bad company
may be kept off
how
Your Memorialist has moreover a receipt
for keeping off bad company: which is, to admitt
no man who will not enter his name and abode
in a book, and stand further examination, if
required: with penalties in case of falsehood.
Suspected persons might be known by correspondence
with the Police. Knowing the can not get admittance
without going through the test, they will hardly
frequent the spot, merely to put themselves in the
way of danger.
25.
The persons nearest
are, some indifferent,
some friendly to the
choice
So much for the remote neighbours: how is it
with near ones? Close to the spot, your Memorialist
observes one gentleman, to whom the inconvenience
apprehended must, if those apprehensions whatever
they be, were well grounded, must, if those
inconveniences were to be felt in any degree by
those other gentlemen, be absolutely intolerable. This
is Mr. Sewel, an eminent Bookseller in Cornhill.
