7 Mr Bentham's Memorial.
Having thus brought to view the said several proposed purchases,
7
Quantities, of the several
adjacent pieces of
Ground, the purchase
of which is in contemplation --
together with the proceedings that have respectively been had in relation
to the same — Your Memorialist, to pave the way for this
his humble application for the determination of Your Lordships in
respect thereof, begs leave to recapitulate the contents of the said purchases;
distinguishing the clear Contents from the Gross Contents,
but comprizing, in the clear Contents, certain portions thereof, to the
amount of several acres, which, being converted into Ditches, are
inapplicable to any profitable or otherwise beneficial purpose.

Deduct, as occupied, partly by the Bank or Water
Wall with the Public footway thereupon, partly by a
private Carriage-Road, and which (though parcel of
the said Estate) is subject to divers rights of way,
which cannot be bought in; both which parcels of
land, are productive of a considerable and constant
expence, instead of yielding a profit to the owners
of the said Estate — A R P 1.. 3.. 9 A. R. P 1.. 3.. 9 . . .A. R. P.1: 3: 9
