his intention to do what depended upon him in
the course of his official duty to carry the establishment
into effect and accordingly to apply the said Estate
to such its only lawful purpose, yet at some point of time not
capable of being previously ascertained, but at any rate intervening

it when formed by some other person or persons, to
wit his colleague Mr Secretary George Rose, his colleague in the Secretaryship
of the Treasury or the Right Honourable William

them, the design of preventing the establishment from
being ever carried into effect — and thereby of preventing
the said Estate when purchased from being ever applied
to such its only lawful professedly intended purpose: in
contempt of the Act in that case made and provided
and in violation of the public faith, as pledged to Mr
Jeremy Bentham by and on the occasion of that Act.
