Prison discipline, 1884. A Dartmoor prisoner doing solitary punishment at the crank handle. In some prisons this soul-destroying task was put to use such as grinding flour, but usually it had no useful purpose. At the top left is a list of the different grades of punishment. A: To turn the handle 14, 500 times per day and to pick 11 oz of oakum. B: To turn the handle 12, 500 times per day and pick 6 oz of oakum. C: To turn the handle 10, 500 times per day. | |
