Review of Humphreys.

Machinery.

1.

Hs 7 projects.

2. Benefits from separation.

3. H's choice of machinery
not happy.

4. To conveyance instrument
improvement
no particular interest
hostile, but that of a
small part of the lawyers:
these devices are
preexposed by Fallacy
work.

5. Hostile interests against
1. Conveyancing instrument
improvement
a part only of the lawyers.

2. Procedure, judiciary
and codification improvement,
all lawyers, but no aristocrats.

3. Against registration
improvement, the
Aristocracy.

4. Against enfranchisement
some aristocrats,
and all
their manner towards.

6.

Commissioners, 312.
Annual expense
2520,000, with retired
allowances:
half, two thirds, on the
whole.

Machinery.

7.

At these figures, H. will
pause.

The churches and Palaces
and yes. Churches £1000,000:
Palaces, 500,000:
probably to be added, as
much more.

H. promises nothing better
than security for
property. Liverpool & Co
piety and throne splendor:
both dear to Whigs
and Tories.

8.

True: from 8. no objection
to £500,000, with a third
as much for good and
bad conduct. But the
amateurs of churches
and palaces would be
frightened, and crush the
project.

9.

II, Machinery for carrying
on, Chairman and
Clerk of Quarter Sessions
Chairman, for sunday
businesses of procedure:
Clerk for registration of
title deeds.

10.

Inaptitude abundant.

11.

But no fault of H's,
conception required, and
from models: and none
less bad exist.

12.

By J.B. procedure Code
far advanced.

13.

For new Registration
System, see below.

As to time requisite

17.

Only to
tenures and copyholds
applies need of information.
Of these, importance
is least.

18.

Motions adequate, so
would information
be.

Source of motions,
notice that no information
no compensation.
