1831. Aug 29 A.M. 6
J.B. v. G.3.
18 or 1.
Plan afterwards rejected
by a Home Secretary
in London –
models of J.B's exhibited in Q.S.P.
visited by Portland Duke
and two sons – he said
"Not light enough": disproved:
Panopticon a
similitude of the glass-bounded
Fairy palace.
19 or 2.
In form like Rannelagh
& Loddiges!
20 or 3.
In library at Q.S.P.
but 3 windows – no
complaint of darkness.
21 or 4
J.B. sends information
to Wilberforce of this
visit – his answer indignant.
---page break---
22 or 1.
Wilberforce at first a
supporter of Panopticon –
J.B. a visitor to him –
Offers to move in House
for JB who seeing
no use does not
trouble him.
23 or 2
J.B. believes that then
the impediment was
known to no one
but Pitt.
24 or 3
J.B's reason for that
belief Pitt's non-religion.
25 or 4
J.B's examination
necessary – apprehension
lest it should
expose Ministers &c.
26 or 5.
Thus J.B. must be
kept quiet till examination
– conspiracy
for that purpose –
J.B. visited by parties
to it – Wilberforce &
Nepean conduct J.B.
to examination
place: All uncertain
as to result: J.B.
speaks as confident
of its favorableness.
---page break---
27 or 1.
Nepean tips the wink
upon a passage in
J.B's examination
28 or 2
In going to examination
J.B. plies Nepean
and Wilberforce
with questions – Wilbeforce
leaves J.B.
for two persons he
met.
29 or 3
Near Westminster
Hall met by Redesdale
– he and Nepean
understand each other –
30 or 1.
Reader may think unfavorably
of Wilbeforce,
but wrongly: he approved
J.B's plan while
any chance of
success: when none,
he supported the
next best.
31 or 2.
By his part in the
business J.B's condition
not deteriorated –
his object, not to
diminish compensation
to J.B. –
said he was ignorant
of the course
intended to be taken:
J.B. sees no reason
to disbelieve
it.
