Convict Labor in England Explains Harsh Forced Tasks
A Boston Herald writer describes English prison labor where convicts form a square yard layout and perform rapid ball handling and stacking. The brutal drills induce profuse perspiration, with workers under a guard’s rapid orders. The piece compares galled labor to solitary cell work and the dangerous crank machine used in punishment and control. Captain P T Woodfin of Salem becomes an executor in Harrison Phoebus’s estate with a $600000 bond.
