To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" The Inspectors, iu their report for 1844-'45, suggest that "some provision should be made for tlie moral and religious instruction of the convicts. The very object and intent of peniteniiarjj punishment, as the term implies, is refor- mation; and yet nothing is done to bring about so desirable a result. This has been attended to, we believe, in almost, if not every penitentiary in the Union, and its neglect is matter of reproach against that of Illinois. The convicts work during the week, and... are shut up on Saturday night, where they remain till Monday mon ing, without a single word of encouragement irom any one who seems to take an interest in their welfare, to induce them to change the course of life which has brought tiiem into their present condition. A building might be erected at a moderate expense, which would answer the purpose of a shop, with a second story which might be fitted for a chapel, and a chaplain ap- pointed with a sufficient compensation, whose duty it should be to have reli- gious services, at least once on every Sabbath, and to administer to the sick and dying the consolations appropriate to their condition.
