§ 3 Clandestine assurances to Lord Belgrave Mar. 1 1800 Mar 15 1800
A 4 [Not sent] Mr Bentham to Mr Long. 10 March 1800.
His perfidy seen through – Four proofs.
Six Queen Square Place Westmr Mar 10th 1800
Four rays of light are now drawing into a focus –
Previous Contract – Buying out Leases – Number to be built
for – Supplemental Ground.(a) (a) See Notes

– that through some channel, which a man may trust to
without ruin, I may at length be made acquainted with
their Lordship's real pleasure.
In a moment of expansion, you once did me the
honour to express to me a very decided opinion respecting
the strength of Lord Belgrave's influence. The opinion conveyed
to me, on the part of his Lordship, very lately, on
the same subject, is as opposite as possible. If it be just –
voilá (French language can alone do justice to French

to more than one person you have confessed it –) was then
too great:– but what was that to that of the simple Privy
Councillor? What is the stoppage of a purchase, to the
rescinding of it? – What is the stoppage of Public Money,
to the squandering it?
Their of despair was stopped by
purchase. The which had
the first instance of interference on the
part of the , was not yet
was therefore open to him, as
that . In hope of obtaining the requisite
explanation with , and perhaps
of Mr Long to break through any
again forth be the
authorizing of Mr
