II 1 2 3 Doc 3 §10 Disarmed Memorial & its consequences —
Apr 21 1800 June 26 1800
10 June 1800
Mr Long's plain wish is still, as it has been for
years, to find or make some objection that shall be insuperable:
if you will give him leave, he will realize that wish: the chance
is, that, if you resist him firmly, he may yield. I do not mean
that he has formed any plan about it: he is not a man to
form plans: (c) & but such is the leaning of his mind. — (c) See Note
The fresh Memorial, unless the import of be previously
concerted with him, and with those that are to report upon
it, will furnish plenty of handles, each strong enough for the overthrowing
of the whole business: without such concert, the giving in
a plan and Estimate, in the architectural sense of the words,
will be an indispensable condition: and to given in any such
Plan and Estimate, as a man can abide by, is, in my situation,
absolutely impossible. (d)(d)See Note No such plan and estimate was
called for, when my proposal was accepted: in confidence as
to that point was bestowed: that sort of confidence which
was altogether indispensable.
If I comprehend you right, the fresh Memorial is to
be such an one, as shall be fit to be referred to some Subordinate
or Subordinates — (the Surveyor of the Board of Works
I suppose for one) to report upon it: and, for that reason amongst others,
is to have no reason to it. — (e) (e) See Note The discarded Memorial
was not designed to be referred to any body: nor to be
seen by any body, but the Secretary & the Board; the object
was — to get such answers, as should put me at a certainty,
& fix them. —
