Harrison, Wayne Jammond and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net (This book was produced from images made available by the HathiTrust Digital Library.) "The Journal of Prison Discipline and Philanthropy" is a historical account published annually by the Pennsylvania Prison Society, with Volume 46 dated January 1907. This publication focuses on the condition and treatment of prisoners, outlining the Society's efforts and initiatives to improve prison discipline and offer humanitarian support to incarcerated individuals. The work likely reflects concerns of late 19th to early 20th-century social reform movements regarding criminal justice and rehabilitation. The opening portion of the Journal discusses the foundational principles and the organizational structure of the Pennsylvania Prison Society, established to alleviate the suffering of prisoners based on Christian compassion. It highlights the ongoing efforts of members to visit institutions and provide support to prisoners—individuals who, due to various circumstances, have fallen into misfortune. The report emphasizes the Society's commitment to reformation rather than mere punishment and includes statistics about the prison population, discharge rates, and educational backgrounds of inmates, suggesting a focus on rehabilitation through understanding and support.
