writing in the character of his Grace's Agent, in which after
refusing the sum offered by them, he adds that "he (the Archbishop)"
"cannot by any means approve of the proposal that the See should
"receive its consideration by accepting an equivalent in Land,
"which is proposed by Lord Spencer to be given in exchange

(meaning doubtless a smaller portion unclogged, instead of a larger
one clogged, as at present, with a beneficial lease) whether the
