Excerpt from Vacation Thoughts on Capital Punishments In proposing to expunge from our statute-book the punishment of deaths I am not unaware of the opposition to be encountered. The same opposition has however met every attempt to mitigate the cruel severity of our penal code, and in every instance it has been overcome. There never yet was an error which could plead prescription that had not its worshippers; or a proposed correction of it, which did not fill them with alarm. But the errors have been slowly and effectually exposed, and yet the world has gone on as usual, and men have lived to smile at the phantoms which formerly peopled the pathway of reform. Our penal code especially has been humanized, and capital punishments have all but disappeared from its enactments. This has been attained, however, but by slow and painful progress, against a dogged opposition in both houses of parliament, and, strange to say, amid the outcries and lamentations and minatory predictions of the wise and good. The most eminent Judges of the land, the most pious dignitaries of the Church, sustained by their eloquence, their learning, and their authority, what Bacon so emphatically calls "the rubricks of blood." Chancellors and Chief Justices, Archbishops and Bishops, voted for the retention of the capital punishment for the offence of stealing to the amount of five shillings in a shop.
