Note

As an exemplification of the consequences of overloading
the time of the first prison in the kingdom with a
trust by far too bulky to be exercised in fact even by his
upper servants, I will beg leave just to mention
to give your Lordship a hint of a fact mentioned
to me at the time by very high authority as being
of considerable notoriety no secret in of certain circles. Thi — A near relation
