Well but (says somebody at any rate have
not have the dilapidation: for the grant being determinable
at pleasure, the successors were successor is not bound but
may, any of them put an end to the grant when
they please.
True: but by custom, no: under the<add>sort of</add>occasion but to this purpose
here in question, it is not by law but by custom
that conduct is determined. In parliamentary
political matters in either House of parliament
should the granter or his parliamentary relative
be guilty of any such offence as that of speaking
or voting according to his conscience then indeed
the successor will not be bound by custom any
more than by law: he will then be by such offence set free and not less f be
entitled to revoke the grant.use his pleasures and have out the offender than the
author of the grant . But should the granter
maintain toward his successor by same habit of
unvaryingunvaried obsequiousness as toward the original
benefactor no successor could not venture to turn
him out: the walls of the parlour Cabinet would ring
with the cry of barbarity and injustice. these are
the sort of things that excitefind sympathy in high
plans: these are the sort of cruelties [+] and the only sortby which there [+] the very idea of
which is sufficient
to pierce to harrow up through
and through those
hearts which th
hearts more that are felt penetrated through and through which the
agencies of ding and diverted any reads find insensible.
If then under a granter grant of this sort the successor
of the granter is free, it he is so no otherwise
is than as the grantor himself is free.
