1828 March 26
Peel & BenthamCopied

The Finance Committee has begun its labours –
you see, under what auspices. Imagine if you also the extent
of the retrenchment that may be expected from them. For my own
part I must acknowledge myself quite though
not very little surprized most completely consummately confounded.

that applied to the two Commissions for the two
subjects so carefully – Commission procedure and property
law in addition to the already existing one for Chancery procedure.

and pernicious expence employed in the procurement of such service.

on their part, or to the domination of the remuneration on the part
or to the encrease of aptitude
provided for them in return for
official service, or to the encrease of aptitude with relation
to that same service: steadily as we have found him
