some respects too burthensome to your Memorialist,
have by the said delay which has already intervened,
been rendered by so much the worse than it was intended
they should be, and that to an amount for which no
adequate compensation can be made, and must of
course be rendered worse & worse, by every further
delay
that may ensue.

Farther expence incurred, to the amount of several
thousand pounds, in
materials bespoke and
making: cast-iron for
the building

That in as much as no reimbursement can ever
be obtained by him for the said expence or any part
thereof, untill long after the building for the reception
of such prisoners shall have been erected, you Memorialist,
as well as in consideration thereof, as out of
his zeal for the public service, has been induced to give
order for the casting of the ironwork of which a principal
part of the said intended structure will be composed,
and such order, to the amount of several thousand pounds,
has for some time been executing: of which expence, unless
speedy measures shall be taken by your Lordships
for his relief, the burthen must fall upon your Memorialist,
to the great injury of his private fortune.

With respect to the choice of your Memorialist, as the
Feoffee in whose name the said intended purchase shall
be made, he begs leave to observe, that the suggestion
proceeded not from himself but from the gentleman
by whom the Bill was drawn; by whom he was informed,
that it was in the view of making appointment
of your Memorialist, and no other person, for
that purpose, what the provision in question was introduced
