	Newgate Prison
		Newgate Street is already almost crowded to impassability during business hours, whilst Ludgate Hill, its confined neighbour, is in a condition of traffic congestion the greater portion of every day.
		Newgate, which, with the Old Bailey, may be taken as the obstructive barrier between the two great arterial thoroughfares, ought to have been carted out of the public way half a century ago.Common-sense, at this time of day, might have suggested a "clean sweep" to give more elbow-room to the public.
		Newgate has been a prison since the 13th century, and the time has come when it ought to be removed for the purpose of public convenience.

		It is proper to observe that in the old jail of Newgate there was within the lodge a hatch, with large iron spikes, which hatch opened into a dark passage, whence there were a few steps into the condemned hold.
		The prisoners being permitted to come down to the hatch to speak with their friends, Sheppard, having been supplied with instruments, took an opportunity of cutting one of the spikes in such a manner that it might be easily broken off.
		When taken into custody he was quite senseless, from the quantity and variety of liquors he had drunk, and was conveyed to Newgate in a coach, without being capable of making the least resistance, though he had two pistols then in his possession.

	The Newgate Calendar - APPENDIX I
		The exact period of time when Newgate, or, as it was first called, the New Gate was erected it is not easy to determine; but we find that as early as the year 1211, its apartments were used for the confinement of felons, as a county gaol for London and Middlesex.
		This gaol was re-edified in 1422, by the executors of Sir Richard Whittington, and afterwards rebuilt with greater strength and more convenience for prisoners, and with a gate and postern for passengers.
		The malefactors stand upon a false floor, and when their devotions are finished, on a signal being given, the floor suddenly drops, leaving the unhappy sufferers suspended in the air.
