Letter III. Extent for a single Building

most instances, to make one story of the Lodge serve for two stories of the Cells: especially
in any situation where ground is valuable, the number of persons to be inspected
large, the room necessary for each person not very considerable, and frugality
and necessity more attended to than appearance.
For this purpose, the floor of the ground story of the Lodge is elevated
to within about 4 1/2 feet of the floor of the first story of the Cells. By this
means the Inspector's eye, when he stands up, will be on, or a little above, the level
of the floor of the above mentioned upper story of the Cells: and, at any rate, he
will command both that and the ground story of the Cells, without difficulty,
and without change of posture.
As to the Intermediate Area, the floor of it is upon a level, not
with the floor of the Lodge, but with that of the lower story of the Cells. But,
at the upper story of the Cells, its place, as I have already mentioned, is supplied
by the above mentioned Gallery: so that the altitude of this Area from
the floor to the Ceiling, is equal to that of both stories of the Cells put together.
