such discharged Convict means of conveyance
to the place of his choice, whatever it be, should be
afforded at the public change, a mode beyond comparison
less expensive, than providing, though it

this purpose. But, as the ascertaining, upon any
satisfactory evidence, the spot really desired could
be plainly impossible, the spot most distant from the
Penitentiary House in question: for as that now

prison to be built and kept up on
purpose.
