omitt whether the Penitentiary House was to be
built and governed by on government account
or by Contract, was a matter which
whatever difference it might make to the public
at large, could make none to the Proprietors
of the spot, or to any parties who
in virtue of any relation to the spot could
regard themselves as concerned. Sensible of
the importance of a fixed basis, appraised of the difficulties
that this already
the
fixture and
had acceded in confirming the
appraised
of that the difficulty of making a choice had
suspicion which the original Penitentiary
plan had then been already labouring from for
14 years no less than 13 years, apprehension of what
has ensued, yet strong as he conceived
himself in a choice made confirmed
by an authority against which not a
whisper had ever yet been known to raise
itself Mr Bentham at the very outset of
the treaty took the confirmation of this
for the basis of the his intended Contract, and the Stipulation
was accordingly acceded to, by
a marginal note in the handwriting of
the Chancellor of the Exchequer which Mr
Bentham has as such by Mr Bentham to
Your Committee.
