Copy Dover Street No2 Novr 26th 1791.

Sir

I herewith take the liberty of sending you a copy of
my book on the construction and management of Penitentiary and other
prisons, in the state in which it has lain some time in readiness
for publication. Allow me to hope that another Session will not
commence before you find yourself at leisure to take some notice
of a proposal which I addressed to you on that subject ten months ago,
and which has since been put into your hands at different times
by Mr Wilberforce and Mr Steele. — A saving of more than
one half the present expence; and the saving the least
part of the advantage... their few words, while they bring back the proposal
to your recollection, will not I hope place its claim to your
attention in an unfavourable point of view. I have the honour to be
with all respect
Sir
your most obed.
humbl. Servant
J.B.

R. Hon. W. Pitt.
