the andover scandal
McDougal, the Master of the Andover workhouse, had a reputation for inhumanity; rumours of excess cruelty eventually led to a public enquiry. The workhouse's medical officer had known of the mistreatment of the inmates but feared for his job and so had not reported the Master's conduct. Between 1837 and 1846, sixty-one paupers from Andover workhouse went to gaol: it seems likely that they committed offences to escape the workhouse regime, the mistreatment and starvation.
