H. Choice of machinery
not happy

In the choice of his machinery, if my view of its nature
be right, he is not happy: expence, prodigious, delay
correspondent, receiving a natural encrease from the application
made of the expence: a an approved plan of operation for by
which both burthens exe may be maximized lay open before to
him but unfortunately failed to attract his notice.

Commissions proposed by him two different sets: one
for enfranchisement; the other of lands held by burthensome [or
otherwise inconvenient] tenures: the other for the partition of land
occupied in common.

The improvement respecting
the form of the instruments
of conveyance might
take effect without
either the enfranchisement
or the anomaly —removing
improvement

In the machinery proposed for enfranchisement and division composed of [the] Commissioners with their
consists the d expence with its natural issue
the delay. The Conveyance-deed improvement and the
anomaly abolition improvement would and neither
might be effected either of them separately or both conjointly
and would need neither expence nor delay worth putting into
the balance.

3.
To conveyance-instrument
improvement in
particular interest hostile but
that of a small part
of the Lawyer — their
devices are
by Fallacies book

Hostile interest against
1. Conveyancing instrument
improvement in part only
of the lawyers

2. procedure, judiciaries
and codification
improvement all
lawyers but no Aristocrats

3. Against registration
improvement the incumbered
Aristocrat

4. also against enfranchisement
some Aristocrats
and all their Manor-Stewards.

The conveyance-deed improvement would find no
person class of men interested in making opposition to it, but the
lawyers: and they no being restrained if not by shame
by despair of success restrained from t open and honest sincere
opposition would be reduced to threadbare shifts, and
transparent pretences, and fallacies already anticipated
and pre-exposed exposed and answered Are they not written in the Book
of Fallacies?

The enfranchisement improvement for would find
arranged against it in an unconjecturable proportion
the aristocracy of the country and their relatives
pride would rouse and arise the Lord Manorial Lords pecuniary
interest their manorial Stewards
