Jailer
A jailer — the keeper of the locked door — often touches treachery embarrassing your interests and the threat of being held against your will. The dream may ask who holds the keys over you, where deceit or pressure is trying to extort something from you, and how it feels to be at the mercy of a figure whose role is to confine.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for jailer, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To see a jailer, denotes that treachery will embarrass your interests and evil women will enthrall you.
To see a mob attempting to break open a jail, is a forerunner of evil, and desperate measures will be used to extort money and bounties from you.
