Use British English date June 2011 Use dmy dates date June 2011 Major Thomas Bunbury b.c1791 , soldier and penal administrator, of the 80th Regiment of Foot Staffordshire Volunteers 80th Regiment , was commandant of the second convict settlement at Norfolk Island , from April to July 1839. He joined the army in 1807 and fought in the Peninsular War . As commandant, he was confident in his ability to manage the hardened convicts under his command. He wrote that he could not understand why a villain who has been guilty of every enormity, should feel shame at having his back scratched with the cat o nine tails when he felt none for his atrocious crimes. He also claimed that if a man is too sick to work he is too sick to eat and claimed that the queue at the hospital was halved. Although his punishments were harsh, he replaced hand hoeing with ploughs, rewarded good behaviour with improved jobs and gave older convicts lighter work. He earned the ire of the soldiers on the island by ordering the destruction of huts built on the small gardens they kept for their own use and for trafficking with the convicts. The soldiers mutinied, a warship was sent to restore peace and Bunbury was recalled in July 1839.

Mettray Penal Colony , situated in the small village of Mettray, in the French Departments of France d partement of Indre et Loire, just north of the city of Tours , was a private reformatory, without walls , opened in 1840 for the rehabilitation of young male delinquents aged between 6 and 21. At that time children and adolescents were normally imprisoned together with adults. Aspects of the progressive way in which the Colony was organised anticipated the English borstal system established at the beginning of the 20th century. History Fr d ric Auguste Demetz 1796 1873 , a penal reformer and lawyer at the French Royal Court, together with the architect Guillaume Abel Blouet 1795 1853 , toured the United States together in 1836 to study American prison architecture and administration for the French government. Today Blouet is probably best known as the architect who completed the Arc de Triomphe in Paris . Upon Blouet s return to Paris he devoted himself to the reform of prison design and in 1838 was appointed Inspector General of French Prisons. Blouet believed in using architecture to realize social reform and together with Demetz worked on the design and layout of the buildings for the Colony which was initially directed by Demetz after its opening in July 1839. It was noted as being officially opened on the 22nd of January, 1840. ref name nyt http query.nytimes.com mem archive ..., he became the hero of the British philanthropic world.
