The persons nearest
are, some indifferent,
some friendly to the
choice.
So much for the remote neighbours: — how is it will near
ones? Close to the spot, your Memorialist observes one
gentlemen, to whom the inconveniences apprehended
must, if those apprehensions whatever they be, were well
grounded, must, if those inconveniences were to be felt
in any degree by whose other gentlemen, be absolutely intolerable.
This is Mr Sewel, an eminent Bookseller
in Cornhill. The 13 Acres, on which his new built Villa
has been erected, are separated from the spot in
question by nothing but a Road. Not a foot of the spot
in question but is fully seen from his house. Not a foot
of his House or Land but is fully seen from every part
of the spot in question. Mr Sewel had for some time
advertised his estate, or a part of it, to be sold or let on
a building lease. Mr Sewel's wish and expectation of
making such disposition of his estate continues unchanged.
Mr Sewel, before he had any knowledge of
your Memorialist, or any intercourse with him on the
subject, was indifferent to the establishment. Mr Sewel,
sincehe has had your Memorialist's plan stated
& explained to him, is pleased with the Establishment,
and impatient to see it take place. He sees what it
will be. It will add singularity to beauty: it will crown
the eminence: it will give life & ornament to the country.
It will be a lantern: it will be a bee-hive: it will be a
glass bee-hive: and a bee-hive without a drone. The spot
is now a garden: for a cabbage-ground is a garden:
it will then be an enriched one. It will be an unexam-
