Narrative
through my examination before the Committee of Finance,
that, several years before this, the expences in which I had
been engaged by the personal warrant and even instigation of
mr Pitt & Mr Dundas had already absorbed the whole of the
disposable part of my property.
6. That, in case of any complaint in my part, in respect
of any such obstructions, all such complaints should remain
altogether without notice.
7. That, all means of carrying on the business – all means
of explanation with Mr Long – the only one if the two Secretaries
who had not positively forbid my making application to him
on the subject – secured or withholden from me as much as
possible – letters unanswered and unnoticed – applications for
refused, evaded, or rendered ineffective.
8. That all consultations, minutes, references, reports, and other
proceedings, on or by which the fate of my establishment and
my own depended, or and were disposed of, should be kept concealed
from me as carefully as possible.
9. That the deportment observed towards me should on all
occasions, and in all respects, be as mortifying, humiliating,
repulsive, and irritating as possible: to the end that by silent
despondency I might be driven at length to "relinquish the
"Plan altogether" of myself or by some such expressions of resentment
as it was hoped might be drawn from me at some
unguarded moment by the provocations that were in store for
me furnish some such pretence to Mr Long for crushing it at
once as he has been made use of in Mr Palmer's case.
10. That on failure of all other chances or expedients encouragement
should be held out to me for proposing an increase in
the establishment that an increase in the expence might
afford a pretext for relinquishing the plan altogether.
