§3. Clandestine Assurances to Ld Belgrave

(A1.) Mr Bentham to Mr Long—4th 1799(a)

Put forward the Contract—Tothill Fields, best—especially for L<hi rend="superscript">d Belgrave.

The subject, on which I hope to be indulged tomorrow,
is—the immediate necessity of putting forward the Contract with
the Supplemental Article, as some time ago proposed (I believe by
yourself) relative to the Tothill Fields Lot.

Lord Belgrave himself, would rather see the Building set
down on the intended spot of Tothill Fields, than any where
on the Ground already purchased for it. His sole reason for
refusing his assent to the Tothill Fields Appropriation Bill,
was—the assurance he then entertained (the beginning of last
month) of being able, but the representation of the apprehended
detriment to him, to get the Establishment removed altogether
out of the Neighbourhood, notwithstanding what had been done.
Such was the information I received from his Land Steward,
at our last interview.—

The Contract once signed, he will perceive the determination
to be irrevocable: till them, not.—

Be please, Sir, to observe what follows. From the very
first, neither his Lordship's Land Steward, nor his Surveyor,
saw any thing to apprehend from the plan, either for the
comfort of this residence, or the value of his Estate. They told
me so over & over again. I can have a confirmation of it in
black and white.—

Latterly says the Land Steward to me—"There is one
"thing, which if you can do, will render you plan not
"merely innoxious, but beneficial, to the Grosvenor Estate, in
"a very high degree."
I assented instantly:—it was beneficial
to all parties.—A glance at the Map, Sir, will
explain it to you at once. The Steward could not suppose
a doubt:—his disappointment was scarce inferior to mine.—
Hence
