- Summary
- In 1840 Australia was full of transported convicts, and Norfolk Island, a thousand miles out in the Pacific, was its prison of 'ultimate terror'. Alexander Maconochie arrived as their new Governor. Appalled by the brutality he found, he introduced his 'mark' system, whereby prisoners could reduce their sentences by good behaviour and hard work. 'Let us offer prisoners, not favours, but rights, ' he said. 'They have their claims on us also... the more sacred because they are helpless in our hands.'
