On Memorialist's requisition,
the Board
stand engaged to confirm
the choice.
1. by the faith of the
treaty.

But being warranted then at least, to adopt the choice
humbly pray'd for by your Memorialist, and precluded,
by considerations of decorum at least, form looking out for
any other, the moreover hereby humbly sollicited by your
Memorialist to adopt such choice, your Lordships justice
stands engaged, as your Memorialist humbly insists, to a
compliance with such this prayer. Your Lordships justice
stands engaged, in the first place by the faith of the
treaty, in pursuance of which the late Statute was brought
in — By the treaty, Administration stood engaged to your
Memorialist, to fix upon the spot stipulated for by him,
if authorized by Parliament to contract, & unless precluded
by Parliament from fixing on that spot. Administration
has not been precluded by Parliament from
fixing on that spot: your Lordships therefore, pursuing
the plans & executing the engagements of Administration,
stand engaged to confirm the choice.

That the faith of Administration stood pledged in
this particular will hardly be denied. The continuance of
the approbation that had been made of the sport, stands
first among the articles of which the treaty was composed:
the accession to this article stands in the margin of the
paper in the hand writing of Mr Pitt or Mr Dundas:
in every stage, from the first to the last the adherence to
this article was all along supposed on both sides: no objection
was ever made: in short it was for this purpose
in the first place, that the intention of Administration
to come to Parliament was announced.
