Memorial
the command of a Regiment in his Majesty's service.
That your Memorialist & his said Brother having by
a concurrence of diligence & good fortune collected & formed a
body of workmen in different branches such as if one dispersed
he could not for a long time if ever hope fully to replace, is
obliged & will during the pendency of the present treaty be obliged
to keep them in pay & in employment at an expence of
upwards of £2000 per annum, at the same time that his
manufactories being filled with the machinery destined for
the employment of convicts are incapable of being applied to the
execution of any particular branch of work from the sale
of which the reimbursement of the whole or any part of such
expenditure could be obtained.
That your Memorialist by the unexpected suspension of
the treaty aforesaid, at the time when he had considered the
same as brought to a conclusion, had for a twelvemonth been
subjected to the abovementioned unproductive expence, while the
profits whatever they may amount to which in the same period
he might have reaped therefrom by applying to engines
constructed on the same principles the more advantageous power
of a Steam Engine been already lost.
That the terms of the said existing treaty to which no
objection had ever been made on the part of the Right
Honourable Gentlemen aforesaid on any other ground than
that of the said terms appearing in some respects too burthensome
to your Memorialist, have by the said delay which has
already intervened been rendered by so much the worse than
it was intended they should be, and that to an amount for
which no adequate compensation can be made, and must
of course be rendered worse & worse by every further delay that
may ensue
That
