Memorial

any suggestions if any should be made with a view of inducing
your Lordships to refuse or delay the adoption of that
choice.

For this purpose your Memorialist will in the first place
beg leave in general terms to refer your Lordships if necessary to
the paper marked A. being the copy of a paper delivered by him
to Mr Nepean at an early period of the treaty, and which as
your Memorialist understood from Mr Nepean had undergone
the perusal & met with the approbation of Mr Pitt and
Mr Dundas.

With regard to the objections, all that he has ever heard of as
subsisting at any time amount to but two one of which subsists
no longer: viz:

1. a reluctance on the part of a Proprietor to part with his
property. 2. a reluctance on the part of certain inhabitants of
the neighbourhood to see an establishment for such a purpose
instituted in their vicinity.

1. As to reluctance on the part of Proprietors, and objection the
invalidity of which is assumed and recognized by every Act which
has been ever made for taking private ground for public purposes,
the relevancy of it in the present instance in particular
stands fully discussed in the paper above referred to. Happily
however it has no longer any place. The two persons interested
are the Archbishop of York in the right of his See as tenant in Fee
simple: and Earl Spencer as Lessee for lives under a beneficial
Lease. On the part of his Grace no such reluctance ever subsisted:
your Memorialist is fully warranted in the assertion by a letter
with which he was honoured by his Grace at the first word in
a very early stage of the business and which if your Lordships
should be pleased so to order he is ready to produce. On the
part
