THE responsibility which rests upon those who are in charge of prisoners has varied considerably in the course of time, by reason not only of the change in ideas upon the management of prisons, but also of the change in the purposes for which prisons are intended. There are three main periods to which attention should be directed. First, down to the seventeenth century, when prisons were hardly ever used for penological purposes, but merely as places of detention before trial; secondly, from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century, when imprisonment began to be ~ punishment and houses of correction were built in every county and large town, but death and transportation to America were the standard punishments for felony; thirdly, the era of prison reform which is still proceeding. 1. The position in the first period is illustrated by the discussion of the topic by Professor Maitland in the first volume of the Eyre of Kent, 1313 (Selden Society's publications, vol. xxiv.). He says (Introduction, p. 65) that" prisons mainly existed for the purpose of keeping in safe ward accused persons awaiting their trial. There was ... no margin between a capital offence and one that was considered to be sufficiently punished by detention within a prison for a week or two.... There were different classes of prisons. There were the King's prisons, of which there were several in the county. There were the prisons of the lords of franchises . . . and there were the prisons of the * Read before the Society. March 17. 1914.

WE are at the commencement of our fourteenth session, and if ever there were doubts as to the success of the Society when it was launched in 1901, these have long since been dispelled. Our members, as well as the work to which our Transactions bear testimony, are more than a sufficient answer to any questions as to our usefulness and activity. We were fortunate to start life with sixty-five members, and ever since the membership has gone on increasing, until I see from the recent volume of Transactions, t upon the issue of which our hearty congratulations are due to the Editor, our numbers last year were two hundred and thirty-two. The Society during its comparatively short life has not been content, I am glad to say, to lead a passive and selfish existence, but has frequently placed its advice and services at the disposal of the authorities upon questions affecting the public welfare on which it was qualified to offer an opinion. Last year, also, the Society was able to extend hospitality to the members of the Forensic Medicine Section of the International Medical Congress by providing conveyance of the Section to Broadmoor, a visit which was much appreciated, and the success of which was largely due to the generous action of our Society. We meet this year under exceptional circumstances, which, let us trust, wiII never recur. The war into which our country has been plunged is one which arouses in all of us feelings of deep patriotism, and the desire to help our countrymen and brave Allies
