4. Drawing up and printing statements relative to the
plan for the use of such Candidates. As soon as a resolution
is come to, to treat with any person, such a —
statement I conceive should be in readiness to be given —
him, if necessary that he may know what ground he
goes upon and adapt his proposals to it. A tenth part
of the matter comprehended in the treatise as it stands
at present would be sufficient for this purpose. The whole
together would only bewilder a man of this description
The drawing up this abstract would be my care of course
a considerable impression would not cost so much as perhaps
half a dozen copies taken by hand.

It would be a satisfaction at least & in some instances
might be perhaps necessary to a Candidate whom it was
thought fit to treat with to see the Model. A Model any
man may understand: few would understand the subject
readily & thoroughly from a Draught; easy as it is, even
without a Draught, to comprehend the general principle.

can not stand with propriety at the bottom of an Advertisement
of this sort. 3. My time will be sufficiently
occupied without being concerned in mechanical parts
of the business that may as well be done by any body else
4. I am not fond of accounts nor of pecuniary responsibility,
and I dare say your politeness will incline you to —
relieve me from both these burthens. 5 My name at the bottom
