queries. Any The decision you may be pleased to give
I am content to take if ncessary subject to any inquiry with

facts which the queries several matters of fact which allegations which it is the object of the

Addition for the printed Queries

1 The ground in question is incapable of being let
on a building leases. The fee is in the Archbishopric
See of York. Earl Spencer being Lessee for lives can not
lease for a term, at least beyond 21 years.

2 Other spots continuous and possessed of the same
advantages, with the best part of it (Mr Sewel's and another) have for these many years been advertized for let on building leases,
and in vain.

3. For culture no part of the land lets at fetches more than
£ 3 an acre: a great part of it not so much: Mr
Sewels (contiguous) not more than £ 40s and odd:
Rent 30 years purchase upon 80 acres at £ 3,
£ 7200: £ 600 only above the assessed price of 1782.

4. Mr Bentham s ready compensation be the increased
price what it will, is ready in consideration thereof, to
make any proportionable abatement that shall be thought
reasonable. No fit "proper" land could be made equally "convenient"
for him without an extra allowance of several pounds
a man a year, amounting to so many thousand pounds
a year for the his thousand.
