Panopticon Bill Valuation Reasons

6
On any other
ground the Value
if a valuation de
novo
would involve
an impeachment
of the first verdict

I don't know that Lord Spencer would or would
not prefer a valuation de novo to the course I
have proposed: but if he did, it would only be
in the hope of getting a price beyond what the
Jury looked upon as the full price, which could
not be done without overthrowing the verdict, and
impeaching the judgment of that Jury.

Ld Spencer has
no claim to
an extra price
on the ground of
favour, having
refused to shew or
receive favour

Would such a hope have any ground to suspect plea to support
it, I mean not in point of on the ground of strict and legal justice
which is manifestly out of the question, but on
the ground of honour, liberality or favour? —
I think not. His Lordship has no claim to favour:
he has shewn none. He was offered favour, he was offered an extra
price: but he would not listen to it: four hundred
pound for prompt possession (to make up the £6600 even money) [+][+] upwards of six
per cent of advance,
and that
in
addition to over and above whatsoever might be adjudged the full
value: but he would neither accede to that offer
nor call for any other. Apprized that the delay
would be the loss of the season to the measure, he
chose to abide the determination of Parliament.
He refused favour, and threw himself upon strict
justice. Strict justice therefore is what ought to be
administered to him
and no more is what he ought to have.

Should it even be Were it even thought fit to force upon
him
