Mercy and Plague of Gaol Distemper Urge Reform in London
A defender writes from London urging mercy for prisoners and criticizing harsh laws that keep many confined. He argues gaol conditions foster the gaol distemper, likening it to the plague, and warns that overcrowding and rigid justice threaten public safety and trade. He appeals to humanity and divine precepts to release the afflicted and improve policy.
