Tothill Fields. Plan of Division - with Observations
2. Because the Dean & chapter are in the
habit of that sort of management, & are provided
with fit & permanent officers, for the purpose:
which can scarcely be said to be the case at all,
at any rate not in nearly equal degree, in the
instance of the Parishes —
3. Because, supposing the land in the hands
of the Dean & chapter, the proper object in view
in the management of such concerns, the
improvement of the fund in question for the
benefit of the principals, is likely to be effectually
provided for, to the exclusion of all bye-interests:
whereas, supposing it in the hands of
the Parishes, that is of the Parish Governments,
any such subject matter forms the natural food
of a species of contention, in which the interests
of the body at large, are, in the ordinary course of
things (every thing that turns upon the character
of this or that individual being laid perfectly
out of question case) liable to be made
a sacrifice of, more or less, to the interests or
partialities of a few leading Members & their
personal friends.
4. Because, in respect of the greatest part
of the land proposed to be reserved, the management
grows entirely out of the provision
made for the health & exercise of the great
public School, of which the Dean & Chapter
are the Guardians: an object altogether foreign
to the competence of the Parishes.
