Allowance not greater than now
—

For the support
of these various
establishments certain
funds are
already provided
I should not
choose to engage
in any undertaking
which required
the provision
thus made
to be increased,
and so long as the
relief numbers
of persons in
the relief of whom
it is expended
is not diminished
neither the Assembly
I am persuaded
are the
nation wish to
see the fund sustain
any diminution
made in
the fund.

What the Committee
had in
view, what the
nation wishes is
not to curtail
the allowance dedicated

dicated to this
sacred fund
but to see the
money so dispersed
of destined for the
support of so many
thousands of individuals
employ'd
in rendering them
healthy, industrious
and contented
instead of leaving
them a prey to
idleness, wretchedness
disease and
mortality.

Establishment for Blind &c-
at J.B. expence

All These establishments
I would
wish to undertake
on the National
Account as being
already comprehended
under
the General Establishment.
If
in the management
of these I should
come to make a succeed in reaping
pecuniary profit a pecuniary
advantage, it
would be my
ambition and my
pleasure to lay
it out in establishing
at my
own expence
such places of
relief as are
yet wanted,
for instance
a place for
the employment
and maintenance
and employment
of
the blind, and
other persons labouring
under any

any other bodily
defects which
at present are
considered as
ing debarring
them from
making provision
for their
own maintenance.

The satisfaction
of b filling
up this gap at
my own expence
could be the among one
of the most pleasing valuable
of my
rewards of the
uses I could
put it to make
of it.

Allowance certain

The allowance to
be inferred on the
footing of head-
money - to be
a man's existence
ought not to expend
upon contingencies
- a
man can't be kept
without money to
keep him.

More than what
is necessary ought
not to be given be
the funds were so
abundant - use less
than is necessary be
they ever so scanty

Mad-House

The inspection,
being concealed
would not irritate
them.

OpenGrating - but
Back-front - but
no Intermediate
Wall

Here perfect and
unremitted inspection
would be necessary.

Epileptic Hospital

Might be made in the
same roof building with the
Madhouse.

Here too perfect
and unremitted
inspection would
be necessary

A grated or close
barrier chin-high:
above that, open.

---page break---

Venereals

Company might be
admitted only at a certain
hour or hours
and then the patients
might wear masks

At other times, the
curtains might be
kept drawn, and the
friends only of the
patients admitted,
and the interviews
carried on by conversation
tubes.

Here inspection
would be little
needed except with nor would
regard to such as were
not totally desulted from labour attendance require as would
to be constant, nor
would many any
great number of
attendants be requisite

Blind

The blind to be
kept along with
the Kings-evil
patients, the Venereal
and others exhibiting affected
with complaints a disgusting spe
to the eye.

Nursery

As soon as they
could go alone, they
might make Hom

As soon as they
were capable of instruction,
which might
be at 2, they might
begin to learn to read
At 3 they might begin
to learn to write

Here the inspection
should be perfect & uninterrupted
- as well
as the attendance
constant.

Furniture

Models of the
Furniture to be given
as well as of the
building.
