Panopt. Compensation Claim III Contract
§§.6. Contractors expected
rate

(9)

Contract, have had no more than £12 a year per head.
But, in the interval, if the price of provisions and other
necessaries has encreased, so has that of labour likewise.

Had the prosperity of my Establishment approached
in any degree to the answering the coming up to expectations
formed as above, on the grounds therein mentioned, I even supposing the rise in the
amount of earnings not to have kept pace with the
rise in the price of labour, I should have had no
need, nor perhaps any sufficient claim right to call for
an encrease of headmoney: but in the opposite event
there seems no reason why I should not have had
such right.

The supposition here in question is made for the
purpose of simplification. But, if should it be
in the opinion of my Arbitrators should it not have
been practicable for the consistently with my engagement
as abovementioned to keep the Prisoners &c for
so little as £12 a year per head, they will deduct
what or that sum appears reasonable from
the £37,500 a year, and consequently thence from the
£918,750:0:0 above mentioned; or from the 3/4ths of it, the £689,062: 10s:0d. The cut they make
upon that ground will may be pretty large, (I have already said why) without my
feeling it.
