Mr. Bentham to Mr. Vansittart
(Copy)
Penitentiary Establishment. Panopt.
1801/ J. B
Dear Sir (Copy) Sept/ Q. S. N. 7 Septr 1801..
7/ Vansittart Torafury
I begin to be apprehensive, lest some how or other
the state of this business should have escaped your memory.
When, at your office, I asked you whether this was among the
causes for which my attendance had been called for, your an-
-swer was in the negavite: there had not as yet been time for
looking into it. This was the of July. The present is (I
should suppose) a season of comparative leisure; of as much
leisure as your office can expect.
I have made no application to Lord Pelham: regularly,
I know of no right I have to trouble the Secretary of State
on the subject. The business turns entirely upon the Act (34 G. 3. c. 84) and the subsequent act in 1799 confirming
the vote of money. The powers by the Act of the 34th
are given exclusively to the Treasury: it is with the
Treasury, not with the Secretary of State, that my Contract
(according to the Draught perused and settled by the Crown
Lawyers and printed in the 28th Finance Report) is to
be made.
