Description
Excerpt from Remarks on Prisons and Prison Discipline in the United States
I owe this to the high standing and intelligence of those who have honored me by the expression of confidence in my judg~ ment and impartiality and Sincerely regret that I have so little leisure to give to the illustration of these important subjects, upon which volumes might be written, showing the origin, pro gress, and prospects of a Reform so eminently affecting social order, and the Civil Institutions of our Republic.
Years of unintermitted labor and vigilance are necessary for producing practically beneficial results, through the in?uences Of these disciplinary institutions.
