Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, candidate for vacancy of Surgeon to Middlesex House of Correction. In 1770 this house of correction, in Southwark, was presented by the Surrey grand jury as "too small, unhealthy and unsafe". In addition, over half were whipped, particularly those deemed guilty of theft, vagrancy, and lewd conduct and nightwalking (prostitution). Whilst this appears to be the most well-known prison in Alnwick, there is some reference to another House of Correction on the south of Clayport Street in 1709 [2] which closed long before this house of correction opened.

This did provide some humor as Tabitha blundered her way through questioning the witnesses, assisted only by her unlikely support person, Michaela, a friend from prison. Wherever possible we work with our neighbours to provide you with a good quality surface, but where this is a problem then you will be warned at the time of booking.

Howard's investigations led to two Acts of Parliament in 1774 enforcing better conditions for prisoners and greater standards of cleanliness and the Howard League for Penal Reform that was founded in 1866 was named after him.

During that time he also worked at the Sunday Times as deputy literary editor and television critic, and was the film critic for Marie Claire and deputy editor of New Society. Michael Gallagher, like many who found themselves mentally incapacitated, was held at the prison in safety for just over a week until he was moved to an asylum [9].

Whilst able to give his name, his mental state was so poor that he was unable to give any other account of himself.
