end. Proprietors & Occupiers are determinant persons;
they have determinate interest. Neighbourhoods,
especially such as that here in question
which three large Parishes have conceived to make
neighbourhoods are every body & nobody. Are
gentlemen living at the distance of a mile or
two neighbours to any such purpose? — then who
is not? To what purpose hear a syllable from
any one of them? No one such gentlemen can
bind another: a thousand such gentlemen being
satisfied or dismissed, the decision might be never
the nearer: since another might present
himself, and another, and so on without end.

Driven thus out of the first allotted neighbourhood,
the establishment would thus be either
crushed for ever or driven into another. Then
comes the same game to play over again. Yet
your Lordships must go on with it: for a precedent
would be made by the first hearing, and
there would be no refusing another, nor any other,
with any colour of justice. Were the inconvenience
pronounced intolerable, and on that account
removed from a neighbourhood which had been
prepared for it by 12 years expectation, and after,
and after having been ordered by the 12
Judges to submitt to it, how much more intolerable
