Reasons Panopticon Bill Valuation
8.
No reason for
expecting any
thing better
price from a
second Jury
than from the
first
him the favour he has refused, it would the expedient
of a valuation de novo promise present a
prospect of so much as answering that purpose?
If So far from it, that if there were any ground room for impeaching the
verdict of the Jury, it would rather be on the
ground of having gone beyond the full price
time's price than fallen short of it. £6,000 only
was the price all that the Supervisors, men as devoid
of personal interest as the Jury would be,
had fixed upon as looked upon themselves as
warranted to al consider as the full value. To
the £6,000 that Jury made an addition of
£600: no less than 10 per cent. What ground
Being the difference
of the times, which
to suppose that the disposition of another Jury would give more?
be still more favourable?
Valuation de
novo contended
against only
for the sake of
propriety and
certainty.
Accordingly for my own part, I know of
not that I have any thing more to fear from
a valuation de novo than to hope for it. If
I object to it, it is only because it does not seem
to me to be the proper course, and because I
had rather be at a certainty than
prefer certainty to cross and pile.
