his intuition of ruling his decision (
Mr Long told me) on the judgement
of Mr Dundas, who he observed had
the circumstances more in his mind
than he (Mr D) could have.
Afterwards Mr Long sent for me
and notified to me in form that Mr
Pitt had fixed upon the Land in question
as the proper spot - and an instrument
for the purpose was accordingly
by Mr Long's direction,drawn by me,
approved & signedby Mr Lowndes,settled by
the Atty Genl, and engrossed by Mr
White, and when I heard last of it
was lying, about six weeks ago was lying (so Mr Long told me)(together with the Draught)
of the Contract perused and settled by
the Atty and Sollr General and ready
for engrossment) upon Mr Pitt's Table.
Ld Spencer has given up his opposition
more than once: once as I was
informed by Mr Long, who called
upon me at my house to congratulate
me on it me on it, used afterwards in conversation repeated
for me that after what Ld Spencer had said to him - as

been at my house and seen what was
to be seen)it was notified on his part
by Lord Hugh Seymour to my Brother
who came to me full of it at
the time, but I doubt has since forgotten
it.
LdSpencer has since offered to me
through my Brother to give up his opposition
if I would accept of a marsh,
admirably convenient for me in a pecuniary
view, but as certainly pregnant
with the destruction by hundreds in a year
of those whom I would wish to reform,&
