Sir
Profiting by the obliging assurances contained in
your note of the 7th instant, I proceed to state in
distinct terms, in what manner the plan would, according
to my humble conception of the matter, be "capable of being carried into execution": stating at one
view what presents itself as necessary, to save troubling
you with references to former letters.
1. The proceedings relative to Tothill Fields to be
carried on at all events with as much dispatch as
may be: that being the spot destined at all events
for the Permanent Penitentiary House: accordingly, the
Sollictor to the Treasury to be directed to give those
notices, which in the case of Inclosure Bills (a denomination under
which that in question has been deemed by the
Atty & Sollr Genl's opinion to be included) must have been
given in August, or at the latest in September.
2. An advance, sufficient for the erection &c of a
Temporary Penitentiary House, of wood or other slight
materials, but on a plan the same in principle and
effect as that of the intended Permanent Penitentiary
House, to be made to me, as soon as may be, on
account, in the same manner (this is the entry
to be conceived in the same terms) as the advance of
the £2,000 made to me in June 1794—an advance which
Identifier: | JB/117/085/001 "JB/" can not be assigned to a declared number type with value 117.
