I have given an additional puffing paragraph
at the conclusion: though of that sort of stuff there
was certainly no want before. But your wish
was I think that it might catch the public
if possible, of itself, without the avowed countenance
of Government. It is yours to do as
you please with. You have bought it by
the attention you have my child in the after the
Roman fashion manner by adopting it. Cut out this
part or any other you think fit. You have
bought my child after the Roman manner by adopting it.

Your idea of allowing convicts to buy out their

be confined to their earnings while in the house: otherwise
it would not only give impunity to the risk,

more a man took, the more he would have to buy
himself off with: and gangs would indemnify one another.
And care would be necessary to be taken lest by collusion

me a few hour's notice an hour or two to wind it up, you shall have
the & can in its full extent at any time you please
This will be one amongst topic may come to be considered <add>amongst</add> other necessary preparations to things in preparatory drawing
the Bill you have had the goodness are so good as to allow me to amuse
myself with.
