Excerpt: ... that he had the names of over one hundred who would join his church if allowed. While this letter was under consideration he preached a sermon containing abuse of the governor, which in the existing temper of the men was practically an incitement to mutiny. As soon as the report of this sermon reached Whitehall the Home Secretary summarily dismissed him, and though Dr. Vaughan, the Bishop of Plymouth, interceded for him, he was not reinstated. Some notable improvements were carried out during the year. The Directors of Convict Prisons paid 400 for laying a telegraph wire from the prison to Tavistock Station. A village school was built for the warders' children, and placed under the management of the incumbent and the chaplain. The Directors were also contemplating the building of a private line of railway from Princetown to Okehampton, and the governor, who surveyed the ground, reported that there were no engineering difficulties in the way. On June 27th, 1862, Sir Joshua Jebb, Chairman of the Directors, died suddenly in London, and Colonel E. Henderson was appointed to succeed him. The public services of Col. Jebb had been very great. Thanks to his energy, his remarkable powers of organization, his foresight, and his indomitable perseverance in the face of opposition and unthinking panic, he had brought the abolition of transportation to a successful issue. The mother country had' found it possible to consume her own smoke with t out the conflagration that had been so confidently prophesied by those who posed as experts, and, so far from increasing, serious crime had shown a tendency to diminish. Jebb was a talented writer as well as an administrator, and it was largely due to his persuasive pen that panic legislation had been...

Book excerpt: The war of 1812 is over, but for the inmates at Dartmoor Prison, peace—like home—is still a long way away.On New Year’s Eve 1814, the American sailors of the Eagle finally arrive at Dartmoor prison, bedraggled, exhausted, but burning with hope. They’ve only had one thing to sustain them during the har- rowing voyage—a snatched whisper overheard along the way. The war is finally over.Joe Hill thought he’d left the war outside these walls but it’s quickly clear that there’s a different type of fight to be had within. The seven prison blocks surrounding him have been segregated; six white and one black.Inspired by true events, this novel recounts the remarkable story of the first ever all-black Shakespeare production, staged by segregated American prisoners of war. It is a story of hope and freedom, of loss and suffering. It is a story about how sometimes, in our darkest hour, it can be the most unlikely of things that see us through.
Download or read book French and American Prisoners of War at Dartmoor Prison 1805 1816 written by Neil Davie and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-11 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the history of Dartmoor War Prison (1805-16). This is not the well-known Victorian convict prison, but a less familiar penal institution, conceived and built nearly half a century earlier in the midst of the long-running wars against France, and destined, not for criminals, but for French and later American prisoners of war. During a period of six and a half years, more than 20,000 captives passed through its gates. Drawing on contemporary official records from Britain, France and the USA, and a wealth of prisoners’ letters, diaries and memoirs (many of them studied here in detail for the first time), this book examines how Dartmoor War Prison was conceived and designed; how it was administered both from London and on the ground; how the fate of its prisoners intertwined with the military and diplomatic history of the period; and finally how those prisoners interacted with each other, with their captors, and with the wider community. The history of the prison on the moor is one marked by high hopes and noble intentions, but also of neglect, hardship, disease and death
