Légende

The Chapel, Newgate Prison, [London], 1850. 'The chapel, as well befits such a place, is neat and plain. There are galleries for male and female prisoners. Below and in the centre of the floor, a chair is placed conspicuously, and marked for the use of the condemned culprit. On this he is required to sit the day before his execution in face of the congregation'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
