works called the Wood Mills, which, under the direction of my said brother

were there set up - I know not how many years ago.|| - he has
all along been, & continues to be, employed in carrying on on
account, and to the great benefit of government, a multitude of
mechanical processes, which, in a considerable, though I know not
what proportion, were of a number of the patent inventions
here in question, and in which some of the identical engines
# ibid p.160
and instruments employed at my House as above # still continue
(I have been told) to be employed.

As to the profit, which from this system of
inventions - vast as it will be seen to have been - might in all this
time, had it not then been nipped in the bud, have been reasonably
expected, opinions from persons conversant in such matters, might,
I suppose, for the purpose of evidence, be collected. But, of the profit
expectable from the inventions, a great and indefinite portion
having, as above, been consolidated with, and as it were merged in,
the profit expectable from the Contract, and the profit reasonably
expectable from the Contract being, in my view of the matter,
upon any tolerably fair estimate, of itself so much greater than
any sum which I could expect to see either the Lords Commissioners of
the Treasury, notwithstanding the Act of Parliament, regarding it
as proper for them to give, or on that consideration, my Arbitrators
regarding it as proper for them to award - they will, I am inclined to
think, hold themselves excused from giving, to any such eventually expected
witness, any such trouble, unless their opinions, in relation to the
compensation due on the Contract, should come to be very considerably
wide, of every expectation entertained by me, as above.
