The Board of Inspectors of tlie Provincial Peniten- tiary, near Kingston, in submitting herewith for the in- formation of His Excellency the Lieutenant Governor, the annual returns of its proceedings during the fiscal year, ending October, 1838, and which many unavoida- "ble circumstances have heretofore delayed, would most Tespectfully beg leave to observe, that the various Docu- ments marked from A to K, together with the Warden's Report, and those of the Chaplain and Surgeon, embrace 80 ample a statement in detail of the several matters connected with its management, as to need but little comment at their hands. There are, however, some questions bearing on its Finances that require something more than a passing remark, as the Board have had some difficulty in n.eeting the demands, from the cir- cumstance of the last annual grant falling so far short of the amount estimated for its support. It may seem from Document G, that the estimate for the support of the Establishment for the present year is unusually largej but when the present state of the Institution is duly con- sidered with reference to Documents L and M, it will be at once seen that the gain to tlie Province, in the actual value of the Buildings now in course of erection, and absolutely necessary to its success, does not fall far short of the several grants made bv the Legislature for B2 / its support, uiid the Inspectors are of opinion thut if the like work had been done by contract it would have cost a much greater sum ; it is moreover essentially necessa- ry that whilst so large u portion of the available labour of the Convicts is applied in the erection of the Buildings required by the improved system of arrangement that the annual appropriations should at least be commensu- rate with the unavoidable expenses of Materials and Superintendence, with the salaries of the officers of the Institution. The erection of an outer wall around the establish- ment is also an object of the greatest importance, and which the events of the last twelve months have brought prominently forward, shewing that it must not only em- brace security against tho escape of the Convict from within, but sufficient to repel danger from without — tho Inspectors having reason to believe that the liberation of the Convicts formed a part of the plans of the distur- bers of the peace of the country. The fear of this has been a cause of the greatest anxiety to the officers in the immediato charge of the Penitentiary calling for their utmost vigilance •, increatjiiiii; very materially their ordinary duties, and tho relief afi'orded by extra night guards haa added coiisidirably to the general expense ; an especial appropriation would appear to be required to meet this emergency, seeing by the Warden's Report that by Convict labor it could not be effected under a period of two years at least. The Inspectors, keeping in view the spirit of the Re- solution of the Honorable the House of Assembly, that in the employment of the Convicts, their labor might not be brought into injurious competition with the Artizan and Tradesman, have had under their consideration the t if the k'e cost ^cessa- labour ildings it that lensu- s and of the iblish- , and ought y em- from —the 'ation istur- is has 3rs in \g for their night nse ', uired sport ler a Re- that tnot tizan 1 the ij, I t ' prophetj of establitihing a*Uope wurk and Duck factory ^ manufacture! which they conceive can be carried on to an advantage by Convict labor, — would interfere with no present vested interests, and might be made subser- vient to the Agriculturist, > y promoting the cultivation of Hemp in the country. The Board would most respectfully ask the attention of His Excellency to that part of the Warden's Report soliciting a supply of the printed documents of the pro> ceedings of the Institution, to enable them by an ex change with similar establishments in other countries to ask for the results of their experience, in the manage- ment of the great objects sought to be obtained by Penitentiary discipline. All of which is most respectfully submitted, JAMES NICKALLS, President of the Board of Iiupecton. Kingston. March 15, 1839. 1 \ To the Inspectors of the Provincial Penitentiary : Gentlemen, Since my last annual Report 105 male and ^ female Convicts have been received into the Peniten- tiary, being an increase of 40 above the number of pri- soners received in the preceding year. Of these, seven male convicts are under second convictions, whose pre- vious sentences did not average more than seventeen months, a term that has been found by experience too short on which to effect any lasting improvement in the habits of men who have lived in the commission of crime. The return marked A, will shew the number of con- victs received into the establishment from the several 1 1 6 Districts during the lust fiscal yonr, together with n state- ment of the crimes of which they have been found guilty, and the terms uf their respective sentences. The number of prisoners discharged from the Peni- tentiary during the preceding year is 80, of whom Sixty-six were by expiration of Sentence, Ten " *' Pardon, Four " " Death, A statement of which is given in the Return marked B, containing a full descriplion of their persons, the Dis- tricts in which they were tried, the crimes for which they were convicted, and the terms of time for which they were severally committed. In my lust Report I stated that the prisoners on their liberation were subjected to certain questions in order to ascertain from them (so far as dependence can be placed in their statement) the advantages derived from the system of Penitentiary discipline in the punishment and reformation of convicts. This practice has been continued and with the like results. In the return marked C, will be found a statement of the convicts in confinement on the 30th September last, with an account of their crimes, date of sentence, term of imprisonment, and the District from which they were sent. From this it appears there has been an increase of 36 convicts above the number stated in my last Re- port, of whom 19 were for the crime of High Treason. The average number of Prisoners for the last year was 105, and that during the present is 153, being an in- crease of rather more than 45 per cent over the year preceding. The total number of prisoners received in- to the Institution since the prison was opened, in the ye( cor ! ' '^,., [ Rtat«- guilty, ) Peni- n rked B, he Dis- r which which >n their n order can be ed from ishmcnt the like ment of ler last, {e, term ly were [crcase last Re- 'reason. ar was an in- e year ived in- in the year 1835, is 2^0, of which Ban; under sentence of se- cond convictions. During the past year tiio conduct of the prisoners has been generally good, and notwithstanding the great increase in the nunibur of convicts received, tho punish- ment which it has been necessary to inllict has not ex- ceeded the average proportion of last year, when tiie number of prisoners received was far loss, u sulficient proof that the discipline of the Institution is still in a state of improvement, as it is generally found that a greater share of punishment is unavoidably inflicted upon those recently received into confinement than up- on convicts who have been longer in prison. '1 here have been some few attempts to escape, the idea of which has no doubt been suggested by the apparent in- security of the fence, the scaling of which would be of easy accomplislimont, wore there not other precautions taken, as well for their safe keeping, as for discovering their absence. The labor of tlie Convicts since last spring has been principally devoted to the erection of tlic East Wing, and the completion of the Roof and Front of the North Wing. The walls of the former, which were only commenced in the month of Mav last, are now carried to their proper height, with the exception of the Cor- nice, which it is intended to complete next year, the stone for which will be prepared during the present fall and ensuing vinter. As the number of cells in the South Wing will, in a very short time become too limit- ed for the reception of the Convicts who may be sent here, it was absolutely necessary that the building of the East Wing should be commenced, for had it been long- er delayed it would have been impossible with the small "I ! \ h i f f i 11 n f! tauniber of prisoners whose labor could be appropriated to this purpose, to complete it before it would be requir- ed for the receptiou of Convicts. In the statements of work done by the Convicts since my last Report, it will be seen that as much as possible has been devoted to the support of the Institution, al- though but a small amount in proportion to the annual expenditure of the establishment. The building opera- tions and other works carried on at the Penitentiary during the present year have been performed altogether by the labor of the convicts, whose proficiency in their several trades is such that the work performed by them is of the best description. The Return marked D, contains an account of the value of the labor of the convicts during the past year, describing what amount has been devoted to the build- ing and support of the Prison, and how much has been earned by the convicts who have been employed in the manufacture of articles made for sale, From this state- ment it appears that the labor of the prisoners during the last year exceeds that of the preceding by 4 1-4 per cent, per man. The Board having directed that the labor of a certain number of convicts should be set apart for making shoes and boots for sale, a large quantity of these articles has been manufactured which will no doubt meet a ready demand during the ensuing winter, as they are of a de- scription more properly suited to that season. The principal work to be performed during the pre- sent fall, should the season continue long open, will be the excavation for and building of the main drain, a work which is much required as it is so essentially necessary to the health and cleanliness v( the prison. \.\i.~ ropriatcd le requir- es since ition, al- : annual g opera- tentiary ogether in their t)y them of the St year, c build- as been ] in the s statc- during 1-4 per certain ^ shoes les has L ready f a de- le prc- viU be I work essary I if I J yes lov kit the be vie alTc IS f nex the the as t whi pris be I 1 wel son< buil( byt in it emp shor B able com in oi conv on. of a 9 & I Much of the labor of the convicts during the ensuing year will be required in fitting up tlie North Wing, the lower floor of which is particularly required for the kitchen and dining hall, the present use of the areas in the South Wing, for the latter purpose being found to be extremely inconvenient, and the positions of the con- victs at the dinner table, as at present arranged, do not afford that facility of oversight which is desirable. The Cells of the East Wing, the building for which it is proposed shall form part of the work of the convicts next year, will not probably be fit for occupation until the summer of the year after next, by which time, should the number of convicts increase in the same proportion as they have done during the past year, the South Wing, which at present is the only one fit for the reception of prisoners, will not be sufficient to contain those that may be sent to the Penitentiary. The gradual decay of the present wooden fence as well as the safe keeping of an increased number of pri- soners, will soon render it necessary to commence the building of the boundary wall work, which, if performed by the labor of convicts, will require at least two years in its performance, as the number of men who can be employed as masons will be too few to complete it in a shorter period. Before the labor of the convicts can be rendered avail- able for the maintenance of the Penitentiary, it will be- come necessary to build the shops as originally designed in order that the various branches of trade in which the convicts arc to be employed may be successfully carried on. The only buildings so used at present, exclusive of the stone shed, nro tlie carpentcrV, blacksmith's and C I I } 1 ■i i -^— "-r ■ 10 shoemaker's yliops, m liicii arc put up in u slight tctupo- rary manner, and the two latter will soon go to decay. Some proportion of the labor of the convicts is con- tinually required for the immediate purposes of the prison. Several are employed in sweeping and cleaning the buildings, and providing the daily meals, besides those who are engaged in making and washing the clo- thing. The occasional making and repainng of prison furniture and utensils, also requires the employment of several of the prisoners during the year. Until the buildings which are now in progress of com- pletion, and the shops which it is intended to be built, can be finished, no amount of the labor of the convicts of any consequence can be devoted to the support of the Institution. To accomplish so desirable an end it would require the constant labor of at least two hundred con- victs to be set apart for that purpose. The increased price of the necessaries of life has caused a corresponding advance on the cost at which the provisions are now furnished for the support of the con- victs. The rations arc divided into three classes, two of which supplied arc at the rate of 8* each, and the third at seven pence three farthings, making an average of seven and twenty-seven taienty-eighths of a penny per day. A diet table agreeable to the scale recently adopted by the Board, is hereunto appended. The disturbed state of the country during the last winter having recjuired cncreased watchfulness for the protection ol" the Penitentiary, every precaution was taken to put the cstabHshnicnt in as fit a state of defence as tlic means placed at my dispofful would admit. The duty on the part of the olFiccr.'s for several weeks was ';;i^ I "ij "^Zys^i... • u such as to require their services by night and by day, but this duty Ijccoming too burthensomo and of a nature to unfit them for the proper discha.ge of their more ap- propriate services during the day, it was deemed advisa- ble bp the Board to employ an extra guard for the spe- cial purpose of attending to the outward protection of the Penitentiary by night. The number of men em- ployed in this particular duty has been latterly reduced, and it would not perhaps be prudent to discontinue their services until a military guard be stationed in this neigh- borhood, which it is to be hoped will soon be the case, as a guard-house and barracks sufficient for the accom- modation of forty men have recently been erected on the Penitentiary ground by direction of the Commander of the Forces. The presence of the small detachment of Militia, which was for a short time placed here, was found to be particularly serviceable, and had it been continued from the time the guard-house was completed, it would have saved the expense necessarily incurred in continu- ing the extra night guard. By reference to the Inventory of Goods, materials, and other property on hand, it will be seen that the greater part of the tools and other articles in use at the Penitentiary, have been made by convict labor. The statement marked G, describes the particulars of the estimate of the sum required for the support of the Penetcntiary for the ensuing year- This amount appears larger than that of former years, but is not greater than is necessary to complete the buildings at present in an unfinished state as well as to maintain the convicts and pay the officers and others engaged in car- rying on the discipline of the Institution. The sum voted by the Leg^islature at its last Session was £1377 2.S. Id. less than the estimate laid before Parliament, i 12 This deficiency, togetlier with tlie udtlitionai e\pena«' of building the East Wing this year, for which no esti- mate was made, and the extra disbursements arising out of the disturbed state of the country have created a debt against the Institution amounting to £1794 Is. 7d. inchi- ding three months pay to the officers andguard of the establishment which at present there are no means of discharging as the funds of the Penitentiary are exhausted. By the Statute 4th Wm. 4, c 37, 1 am directed to pre- serve in the Penitentiary at least one set of copies of all official Reports made to the Legislature respecting the same, for which purpose a suitable number of such Re- ports when printed were to be supplied to me. These printed copies have never been furnished, and although copies of the same are carefully preserved in the Books of the Office, the want of a supply of the printed docu- ments has hitherto prevented me from obtaining much valuable information in regard to matters connected with prison discipline, as I am unable to exchange Re- ports with the officers of similar Institutions in other countries. An account of the various employments in which the convicts were engaged at the close of the last fiscal year will be seen in the Return marked H. I beg also to lay before the Board my yearly general Accounts of Receipts and Disbursements on account of the Penitentiary. The Documents accompanying this Report are as follow, and are severally marked as stated against each, VIZ Return of Convicts received into the Provin- cial Penitentiary in the year ending 1st of | October, 1838, MARKED, A. .„« , 13 Kelurn ot Convicts discharged from the Pen- ) marked, itentiary during the year ending 1st Oc- tober, 1838, of Conv B Return of Convicts now in imprisonment the Penitentiary, 1st October, 1838, J Hoturn shewing the value of the labor of the ^ Convicts at the Provincial Penitentiary, I from 1st October, 1837, to the 1st Octo- f ber, 1838, J Diet Table, 1st October, 1838, [• Return of the Property of the Province on > hand at the Penitentiary, 1st Oct. 1838, j Estimate of the sum required for the support > Slc. of the Penitentiary for the year 1839, ^ Return shewing the manner in which the Convicts are employed at the Penitentiary 1st October, 1838, General account of Disbursements during the } year ending 1st October, 1838, ^ General account of Receipts and Disburse- ments at the Provincial Penitentiary, du- ring the year ending 1st October, 1838, All which is respectfully submitted, H. SMITH, Provincial Penitentiary, Warden. 1st October, 1838- D E F G H I K CHAPLAIN'S REPORT. To the Inspectors of the Provincial Penitentivry : Gentlemen, The review of the past year is attended with mingled feelings of joy and sorrow j of joy, that the melioration of the Convict has been earnestly sought jifter •, of sorrow, that sorrow that so small a return has I 1 14 . l>eeii inudo ; still there in soino encouiiigemeut to pro- ceed in an undertaking accompanied by so many disap- pointments and difficulties •, for if even only one out of every fifty should be reclaimed, this would authorize the continuance of increased exertion in behalf of the rest. The fact, that several re-committals during the year now ended have been registered, may at first serve to call in question the utility of the Institution j but when the obduracy of the heart, enslaved for years, (and in many instances from childhood) is considered in con- nexion with the shortness of the term for which they were imprisoned, all doubts respecting the successful working of the establishment must vanish. Besides the very circumstance that .so very few have returned, out of the number discharged, is itself a decided proof, that some good has been effected. The experience of the last year has satisfactorily proved, that a short sentence tends only to harden the heart and produce a repetition of crime •, for how can it be otliorwi.so ? 'Die prospect of a speedy liberation, alleviates the punishment, banishes reflection, by bring- ing before the luind the scenes of riot, so gratifying to their nature, and even encourages them to form schemes which feed their passion, and render them, when releas- ed, a far more terrible scourge to society. If the evil habit, whether it be of drunkenness, theft or idleness be not entirely broken, no change of heart can take place. I do not mean to say, that long sentences will entirely break the habit, and prevent a recurrence of crime, but that if good is to arise from the Penitentiary system, the object is more likely to be attained by long rather than by short sentences. ; %* 15 'g 'i'liere exists a very serious evil, wliicli ought, if pos- sible, to be remedied-, an evil, which acts very unfavora- i)ly to the growth of those improved habits, which may have been accfuircd within the Penitentiary. It has happened frequently during the past year, that many convicts have been released, upon the expiration of their sentence, within a short time of each other, and Imivc remained in the town. Independently of the danger to which society may be exposed from the union of these men, it is evident that temptations will arise peculiar to their situation ; the well disposed become a prey to the designing through fear of exposure, and this is a very powerful instrument when wielded by a base mind. They are induced to yield to their invitations to frequent the public house, under the hope, and with the inward feeling that no further temptation awaits them-, but, when once the poisonous draught is tasted by those, who were previously addicted to intemperance, then the seeds of reformation are scattered to the winds, then the door is opened for a fresh commission of crime. It moreover seems natural for convicts, upon finding them- selves in possession of liberty, to celebrate their free- dom from confinement, in the first public house that lies in sheir path. There is a possibility, if not a pro- bility, that if one convict at a time were discharged, he might elude the temptation which might otherwise over- come him. I have seen the ill effects of this association and have the testimony of a convict, who left the prison with a thorough determination to walk uprightly, but being waylaid by others, whose hearts were only hard- ened by their temporary deprivation of " liberty," was unable, from the absence of a confirmed principle, to nithstand tlir jn is .uid seductions of }ii,=i roiupanionf! I ! f I P 10 To this sliort iiulul^^cncc ho attributed liis ilownfull j I need not say, thut now he is a drunkard. As regards the duties ef my ofiice, I have endeavored to impress upon the convicts tlio absohite necessity ot" an acknowledgment of their guilt, tlicjus/Zce of their pun- ishment, as well as an undeviating conformity to the rules of the Institution laid down for their observance. Many, who at first boldly denied their guilt, have, upon reflec- tion, made an ample confession, and acknowledged that punishment was not awarded according to their deserts. I cannot complain in the least of the want of attention given to the word preached, or to advice offered for their consideration J the chief cause of discouragement is, that so little profit has arisen. When in confinement, there seems to be something like enquiry, about the way, in which they should walk -, but so soon as all restraint is laid aside, and they become masters of their own actions, then vanishes speedily, in too many instances, the plea- surable prospect of a renewed spirit. The number ad- mitted during the last year was 110; 80 have been dis- missed, the re-committals have been seven, three of these under very aggravated circumstances. In the majority of cases, the commission of crime is to be assigned to the want of religious instruction in child- hood; in very many instances evil habits have been strengthened by the immoral conduct of parents and guardians ; some have been thrown upon the world without a friend to counsel, and have unfortunately fal len into company, the very hot-bed of sin ; some dislik- ing wholesome parental restraint have unhesitatingly yielded themselves up to licentious living ; some by in- dulging their lustful passions have attempted tlu; most brutal deeds sonic by suflerinu tuipsrr to ovorcoiiio rr hoped that circumstances will soon' allow the ro-opcniii"; of the School on a more secure uiid approved [)lan. Upon the whole, the friends of morality havn no cause for complaint or despondency, if the extent of reforma- tion meet not their utniosit wishes; the attempt has been made, the opportunity Ij.ts been afford^'d the mlprit to consider his wayts •, if he has net encouraged rcflec- n 19 lion, if he Una wilfully rejected tlie meuiis whereby a change might reasonably be expected, liis blood then rests upon his own head — a wide and daily extending Held lies before us, which will require on our part in- ^ren^sed exertion , disappointment after discourages a further cll'ort ; but the consideration, that it is not the will oi'Man, but of God, which bends the stubborn heart into subjection, bids n» proceed, with the assurance, that in due time we shall rcaji, if we faint not. W. M. HERCHMER. 16th October, 1838. SURGEON'S REPORT. Gentlemen, I have the honor to report that I have visited the Prison, either in person, or, when unavoidably absent, by the proxy of a qualified Medical Practitioner, daily, since my last annual report. Indeed, as I have noticed in my previous report to yoQ, the disposition to "malinger" amongst the Convicts is so great, that were not the visits of the Medical Officer known to be certain and daily, constant advantages would be taken of his non-attendance -, and the discipline officers of the esta* blishment would be constantly perplexed, as being liable to imposition by candidates for the sick list, who have often no other object but a temporary respite from labor. By the n^!!ance and discrimination of the Me- dical Officer of such an establishment Sf? this, much impo- I ^. 19 Nition may be prevontod. and a corresponding quantum of valuable labor serurod for the public. In my two former reports f submitted at some length my views of the duties of the otfict which I hold j since then I have seen no cuuse to aitor my opinions. I hereto subjoin two returns— one, of the Patients treated in Hospital, and another of those not so admit- ted- By the former, it will be observed that three deaths have taken place during the year. Their cases have been recorded, as well as those of all other Hospital patients, on the Register, together with ii post mortum report of each. In the latter return will be seen a list of 811 distinct applications for medical aid, by what are termed "cell" or "out" patients. In my last year's report, I stated ray reason for not admitting to Hospital, any but those laboring under affections of the more serious nature. Of the di'scases detailed in this return, manv arc of a species visible and demonstrable : while many others are of such a kind, that the assertion of the applicant is oftentimes the only evidence of their existence; and doubtless, successful deceit has frequently been practised on the Surgeon, while on the other hand it is confessed that more than once it has occurred, that applicants have been treated with suspicion, whose diseases in the sequel assumed a seriou.s aspect. 1 have the honor to be, Gentlemen; Your most ob't, servant, JAMES SAMPSON, SxirgeorC P.
