I suppose that prisons were tough for the prisoners. Manual labor via prisoners was abolished in 1877, so I would think that prisoners were being kept longer in their cells than they would before 77'. I would also assume that individual cells (If you were lucky to get one) were about half the size that they are now. The lack of sanitation and other facilities in some prisons made them dangerous places and were often prone to diseases and rats.
