Provision was also recommended at this Meeting to be made, that the
Magistrates may be enabled to review the Prison, and to Pass through every
part of it with the greatest Facility.

The Day Rooms were required to be warmed, but it did not appear
necessary to warm the Cells: at least in the expensive manner proposed in
the plan No. 1.

It was also at this Meeting Resolved that two Infirmaries should
be constructed under the same Roof, but divided into two distinct parts, one for
Males and the other for Females. in conformity to the aforesaid Resolutions of
the Court: This Building to be detached and placed at a proper distance
from the Prison, Yet neither this, nor any other Building to be erected near
the Boundary Wall.

The Reformation of the Prisoners so for as this may be effected by
every possible mode of Restraint and Separation, and also by a Provision
of the means of attending on divine Service, challenged the consideration of
the Committee as an essential part of the plan. To this End A Chapell
provided agreeably to the order of the Court : But Whereas the Plan No.1
proposes that the Prisoners should at the time of Divine Worship be in a
state of Confinement by means of an ingenious Contrivance for that purpose
the Committee did not think it expedient to adopt this Measure; being desirous
of affording to the Prisoners every Encouragement consistent with the General
safety of the Prison, to attend to those duties, the habitual neglect whereof
was probably the Principal Cause of their being reduced to their present
unhappy situation. It was however Resolved, that every Class should
be separately disposed in the Chapel; and that there should be an Iron
Grating between them; with Benches only and no Pens.

Resolved that the Plan No.1 adopted as the Basis of a Plan
for the intended House of Correction be sent to Jacob Leroux< no role > Esqr together
with a Copy of the Resolutions of this Committee, so far as they relate to the
intended Building: and that he be desired to form a Plan agreeably to the
foregoing Resolutions; and also agreeably to the Order of Referrence
empowering this Committee to call in Assistance ; and that Mr Leroux
produce such Plan to the Committee on Saturday February the 11th. to
which day this Meeting was adjourned.

The fifth Meeting was held as by adjournment on saturday the
11th. February 1786.
