in your use arches after the Lease itself, it will be rather an unfortunate
circumstance, particularly for you. For the Lease is what your title depends
upon: and whether the Lords Commissioners will be advised by their Law advisers
to make any allowance without some better proof of the existence of
such a title than the mere fact of possession is what I cannot help
regarding as being matter of some doubt. Observations that may be made
are — either there was no Lease — or the Lease is expired — or there are conditions
in it which the Tenant wishes to conceal — and in case of disagreement
the like observations would naturally be presented or rather would present
themselves to a Jury. — A Title deed, on which so much property
depends, is not a thing for a man to throw away or lose without observing
it. None of the other Tenants are at a loss to find their Leases.

Business i:e: I suppose the loss of the years profit in the Nursery
Ground: together with the loss attending the necessity of advancing so much
money as the expence of removal comes to, a year earlier than you would otherwise.

I take this occasion to repeat to you in this manner what I said to you
from the first irz: that if any damage should be in danger of being produced in
any particular instance or instances by removing the articles by the time
specified in the notice, you have only to state the matter to me and I
make little doubt of your having time allowed sufficient to prevent such damage.

In my verbal communications on Friday the 28th of February (reduced
to form by the rough sketches of a Contract and Counter Agreement transmitted
to you on Friday the 7th Instant) I stated to you that great probability there
