were the Landlord ever so averse. So As far then as immediate
possession is concerned, it was the respect due to your Lordship, &
to what appeared to me to be the rules of propriety & decorum, and
not any necessity in point of law, that was the motive for my
humble application to you Lordship, to whose decision in that particular
the same considerations will command my submission: and your Lordship
will be pleased accordingly to recollect, that in the very sentence in
which the request was made I added that it was not any
formal act that I stood in need of troubling your Lordship for, for
that the purpose wcould be equally answered by a simple
acquiescence.

To satisfy your Lordship of the concurrence spoken of on for the
part of the Gentlemen who had been appointed supervisors, I
take the liberty of inclosing a letter or two just returned by the
Archbishop of York together with one I happened to have by me
expressive of the spontaneous support of a respectable & learned friend, an
old connection of the Archbishop's, and who may not improbably fall within
the sphere of your Lordship's acquaintance. I hope the good Archbishop
will pardon the liberty I may perhaps take of adding
his own kind letter to the rest.

To shew your Lordship the state of the business in respect of the
land in question, I also send a report of a committee of the House
of Commons of the year 1784, the estimates it contains of
the expence your Lordship will be pleased to observe are
for 900 prisoners only, and my house is to contain 1,000. Actual
expence, I believe, was scarce ever known not to exceed
the estimated, especially in public works, and neither
that of furnishing nor of stocking is included. Your
Lordship
