Abstract
Sir William Molesworth saw in transportation the
brazen mockery of all his ideals of punishment, and in
New South Wales, the nemesis of irresponsibility.
Transportation had incited, rewarded, and further corrupted
British criminals, and the colony it had given birth to
was visited a thousandfold by the sins of its fathers.
In England and in New South Wales there were many who
agreed, but there were others who thought the system a
gift of Providence and New South Wales, the promised land.
