as to compensation for the delay, be it longer or shorter,
an adequate one is impossible: since of eventual profits
prevented, however real & however considerable they would
have proved, no account could be taken for any such purpose.
The following items, however enormous, would fall enormously
short of being adequate. Reimbursement for what your Memorialist
is already in advance £6000 & upwards besides
interest: for materials & work bespoke & in hand which he
will soon be called upon to pay for, not much less: for what
it is costing him to keep his men together £2,000 a year:
and this leaves your Memorialist's Brother without the smallest
compensation either for the less of his situation abroad, or
for the private establishment at home, which has been sacrificed
to this public one. To take time for shewing unprecedented
favour, your Lordships will never set out with doing
so certain, so heavy, and so irremediable an injustice.

Fixing on the old spot
instanter could prejudice
nobody, as it would include
nobody.
Could it be still a matter of doubt whether your Lordships
would finally see reason to make the choice here prayed for,
your Lordships would not the less see reason as your Memorialist
humbly conceives, to take measures to the same effect de
bene esse: to wit by fixing upon the old spot, and making appointment
of your Memorialist in quality of feoffee to treat
for it. For were the prayer of your Memorialist in this behalf
to be complied with this very day, in no event could any prejudice
result to any body. Till the money be paid in to the
use of the proprietors, no land can be taken possession of: so
that to the instant of your Memorialist's receiving the money of
the Exchequer, your Lordships would remain masters of the
choice. If, on the other hand, after all sources of delays had been
exhausted
