Panopt 7. B. U. D. of Portland A 1800

Then comes § 3 and empowers his Majesty to
appoint Governors "who shall have the care etc.
of ... every ... Offender ... who shall be delivered
into ... their custody, by the direction of his
Majesty ... under such powers, etc. as are contained
in [24 G. 3. c. 56 ...] or under such other directions

question in this last sentence are other Convicts i:e: Convicts not
transportable. In putting this restriction the
writer of the letter has not perhaps absolutely exceeded his competence:
directly contrary
to the letter of the law

against the letter
of the law.
