Solicitor to the Treasury, on the occasion of my
Contract with the Treasury for the establishment
and management of a Penitentiary House
Monday Aug 18. 1796
Called upon Mr White at his Chambers in Lincolns
Inn to enquire what had been done in relation to
my Contract, which has understanding revised Draught to have been
sent him upwards of a fortnight from the Treasury
to be ingrossed.
Mr White Nothing can be done in it till the Solicitor General returns to town. There is a
passage in it that requires to be explained
Mr B. Do you happen toknow, Sir, when he is expected.
Mr White - Not this fortnight.
Mr B. The Solir Genl has been so obliging to me
on this occasion in the article of dispatchthat if you will have the goodness
to allow me to extract the passage that requires
explanation, I would take the liberty of writing
to him on the subject, and should make no
doubt of his dispatching it by letter where he
is.
Mr White. I will look at it: perhaps we may
be able to settle it without the Solicitor
General.
