8 Answer to Ford Panopticon

the above facts to be established. But for this
purpose he does not very well see how, in justice
to his Representatives, he could avoid calling upon
the persons in question to admit them or deny them
(a troublesome and unpleasant business on both sides)
nor would it be a pleasant situation for him to
have to leave his Representatives with a burthen
of such a weight hanging over their heads.

Mr Ford will easily conceive , that the Building,
though a considerable part , is nothing nigh the
whole of the expence at coming in. Fitting up &
furnishing, especially the apartments of the Officers,
Clerks, &c, who will be very numerous, stocking the
Manufactories and the Hospital, Cloathing (an article
which must come heavy at first before there are
old cloaths to serve for working) All this, besides
a new invented system of machinery , which, though
not half compleated for such a number, has already
cost several thousand pounds. So far therefore from
having been understood that the £15,000 was all of it
for the building , it is not true, nor any thing like
true . Mr Campbel's charge, as appears from the
Reports of the House of Commons, was at the
rate of £30,000 instead of the £27,000 and that
for several years together.
