§.7. (27) + 63
1. In regard to the opinion of Sir George Paul, that it is a
naked opinion, unsupported by any accounts: although the only
prison, of and from the accounts of which that gentleman could
have been speaking, was then, as for many years it had been, under
his management.

ending 25 Decr 1810.
In relation to this 5th Rate of Profit, being the first
