Letter 7
Letter VII. Penitentiary - Houses - Safe - custody.
163
Decomposing the plan, I will now take the liberty
of offering you a few separate considerations, applicable to the different
purposes, to which it appears capable of being applied.
A Penitentiary-house more particularly is, (I am sorry I
must correct myself and say was to have been) what every prison might,
and in some degree at least ought to be, designed at once as a place of
safe-custody, and a place of labour. Every such place must necessarily be,
whither designed or not, an Hospital: a place where sickness will
be found at least, whither provision be or be not made for its relief. I will
consider this plan in its application to these three distinguished purposes.
