Panopt. Compensation Claim III Contract
§§.10 J.B. not to name
(1) Pitt sanctioned the rate

§§. 10. To name the one proper amount of the compensation

Turning your command in mortification, obscurity and nullity,
money belongs under the particular situate circumstance of this
instead of being employed in a conspicuous and
public service case — not to the Claimant, but to the Arbitrator
that use of compensation here purpose is what it can be
adequate. It saving the reputation of government in the article of
good faith

§§. To the name the sum belongs — not to the Claimant, but
to the Arbitrator Deliberateness of the acceptance given to the
Contract — implied persuasion of the eventual receipt of the abovementioned rate of profit.

It may now perhaps be expected, as a thing of
course, that I should name the sum which under the Act
of Parliament, all circumstances taken into account,
I look upon as my due.

This is however a task from which I beg to hold
myself excused in so particular a case as mine the present, I
hope to stand excused. It could not answer any usefu purpose.
The sum which to them my Arbitrators will have seemed the proper one, not any
sum proposed by me as the proper one, is the sum which
they would will award. What is would be the proper sum, is a
judgment which they would be are altogether as well enabled able to
pronounce without any proposal made having before them a sum proposed by myself, as
with it. I have not No data have I which they have
not.

[+] [+] Yes: — if, as in the case of Messrs Cowie and Chalmers abovementioned,
If an application
had now been to be made to
Parliament: so then
might the time be
to state a specific
sum as the sum prayed petitioned
for, might perhaps in that
case have been necessary.
But now, in virtue of by the Act
of Parliament in question already
passed Arbitrators
are already named.
Named? and to To what purpose, but
to name the sum.
For any if any award
be made, to name the
sum they must is what
they would will have to do
at any rate, in every
case but that of their
acceding without variation to the sum named, by me — were supposing any such sum named, by me.

Insert or omitt what follows?

For any such purpose as that of my declaring making known what
the sum is with which would be I should be content — which
would be satisfaction to myself, any such nomination
would be altogether useless. Be it ever so small in my own
view of the matter ever so inadequate, whatever it is, it is
with that that I must make myself as contented as I
can. To any person one by whom the plan in question
and its authors were regarded objects with mind either of
amity or indifference, any such nomination made by me
would therefore be of no use.
