transfer to such institution from time to time as many of the prisoners
confined in or committed to the Maryland Penitentiary, and/or in or to the
Maryland House of Correction as they shall deem wise and proper, and may
return at the discretion of the Board any prisoners so transferred, and
shall provide for the guarding, transportation, lodging, feeding, clothing
and medical and other care and attention of all prisoners who may be
held at such institution, or make such arrangements therefor as they
may deem adequate or proper, and the Board of Correction shall have full

dental powers and authority appropriate and convenient to enable the
said Board to discharge fully the powers herein conferred upon them.
