1827 Jany 22 to 24
J.B. to Peel on G.B.'s Letter to him and enclosing Manifold Working Samples

In p.43., of the copy which I took the liberty of
sending you of my Article in the Westminster Review on
of Mr Humphrey's Code mention is made of the
mode of writing called the Manifold mode. In the
event of your looking into that pamphlet, it has occurred
to me, that perhaps you might perhaps not be disinclined
to see a specimen of the result. I accordingly herewith
take the further liberty of enclosing four pages of it. Three of them in which some namely those which
contain some Observations of my own were already
written, when it occurred to me that perhaps you
might be disposed to communicate a specimen
of that invention to one person or another to whom it
would not be thought advisable to communicate the any
above part the above mentioned three. I have accordingly added
the fourth, which contains nothing but two Extracts
from your Speech on the Common Law Consolidation with an
Extract from two Mr Hammonds two Letters on the
subject of Codification, as containing coming from the
learned Gentleman who spoke writes as from authority, and as giving intimation
of a design which is instead of so far as regards the subject matter
therein mentioned in those two passages I stand to
it would give me the be matter of delight to me to found to be presenting a
faithful interpretation of your own. For my own part
I can not help regarding the question as between codification
and mere consolidation without substitutes of Common to
Statute Law as a ele touche. I am, Sir
with the truest respect, Yours
Jeremy Bentham
