Acknowledges that flogging may be a fit punishment for crimes of violence, and perhaps for looting and rioting, but thinks it may be difficult to convince the public that it is an appropriate punishment for men found out after hours or for tearing down public notices. Desires Chelmsford's views on the subject, and asks whether flogging has been used elsewhere.
