"To His Majestys Justices of the Peace

in

"The Report of Thomas Collins< no role >
and Nathaniel
"Conant Esqrs
. appointed to visit the House of Correction
"at Clerkenwell
in the said County.
"The said Thomas Collins< no role >
and Nathaniel Conant Report That
"they have visited the House of Correction divers times since the last Sessions
"and at all times found the Governor
attentive to his Office and the several
"Persons employed by him regular in their Duty, and the Prisoners clean
"and healthy. The Rules and Orders established in the Sessions for the
"Government of the House excepting in such instances as they may have
"been varied by the direction of subsequent visiting Magistrates appear to
"be generally followed.
"The visiting Justices desire leave to recommend that it may be
"referred to the Building Committee to fit upon certain Apartments for the
"reception of Persons whose conditions and circumstances may require a
"treatment different from the other Prisoners and it appears to them that
"the same might be effected at a small Expence by Glazing certain Apartments
"in one of the Corner Buildings of the Prison.
