The station of Jailor is not in common account a very elevated one: the addition of Contractor
has not much tendency to raise it. He little dreamt, when he first launched into the subject,
that he was to become a suitor, and perhaps in vain, for such an office. But inventions unpracticed
might be in want of the inventor; :/ and a situation, thus clipped of emoluments,
while it was loaded with obligations, might be in want of candidates. Penetrated, therefore,
with the importance of the end, he would not suffer himself to see any thing unpleasant or
discreditable in the means.
