was my good fortune not to want any thing from Parliament,
it was not my wish to trouble any body else. _ With these
feelings and this language it would be rather hard upon me,
if against my wishes it were to get into Parliament
only to have cold water thrown upon it. Mr Dundas's silence
if accurately reported, does not seem a very favourable
omen for me: _ I have not the smallest fear
of any thing man can say against it: _ the apprehension
some people have been forward to instill into me is,
that gentleman may have their leavings, and on that
account say nothing to it. I have the honour to
be, with much respect,
Dear Sir,
Your obliged and most obedient
humble Servant
Jeremy Bentham.
