Charmed with possessing in the Person of Mr Bentham
Counceller of the Court one whose Talents & Experience
is capable of releiving me in the works which
are intrusted to me, & to which in fact I find
myself alone unequal to, I beg him to take
care that the Steps fixed on the Border of the
Tontanka under the side wall be of the length
of Six Inches and that the Thickness in the
diameter be an Inch & an half. The flores
for the to be cut & laid with a proper Slope
in order that the Rain water & the Snow
may run off with ease, and that the
foundation of the said ...... may exactly answer
the Plan agreed upon
That he will likewise be so complaisant
as to be bestow a particular attention that the Iron
Ties and Joynts be made & fired with
the greatest Utmost nicety & exactness conformable to the
said Plan — besides, the work of the Canal
being is nearly half brought
forward the business at present therefore is
to Examine whether the opinion of the
deceased General Banes may serve
as a Rule to know if the fall of the Canal
should be made to diminish as Such in the
distance of a hundred in the same manner
