Ground as well as building was then to have been
more: the Ground was never not to have reverted to government:
no such corruption could at that time have
presented itself to me as that of having the ground
or any thing upon it taken from me by government
with or without a satisfaction.
It was impossible therefore I should have made
any such distinction in my own mind with respect
to the £27,000 at to say, £12,000 if it is to be
paid me given me absolutely, the remaining £15,000
only but, with or without reference to the building. No
such condition having been meant ever intended on my
part, will it be thought necessary in
justice to the public, now to force it on me?
I have the honour to be
with great respect
Sir,
Your most obedient and
humble Servant
Jeremy Bentham
