Panopt. Compensation Claim III Contract
§§ 9 Set offs
(II) (5) (3)

This however calculation is so upon the most favourable supposition
however of the for is a supposition, the most favourable of any
be the cheapness of
the ground: and against
the reality of this supposition
there
and that a supposition against the reality of which there
could not but be many chances to one. I mean of its
the supposition of the grounds standing, exactly at the nick of time, clear of all leases:
for suppose it let upon leases, then for the buying out
of those such leases an additional sum would have been required.
Say however no more than £30,000 as above. By my means, here
here then is land worth £30,000 obtained by the public
for £12,000: saving amount of saving, £18,000.

But, in another view it may be said — though the
sum paid was no more than £12,000, yet having paid
so long ago, viz. in Decr 18 1799. 13 1/4 years ago, the
interest reckoning from that time to the present — interest
say at 5 per cent, is so much more paid by the public,
so much more to be added to the price. Between these
two modes of compensation my Arbitrators will have to decide, if the question about it is which
the public has profited by my means — and at the expence
of a course of disappointment and vexation occupying
the last t 20 years of my life a life of 65 be looked upon them as
being having to the purpose any claim to their regard.

All idea of merit on my part being here
so compleatly out of the question, there may in th
less difficulty may perhaps be found in setting down
what may appear due on account of service, on
this than on either of those other grounds
