You may imagine it not very pleasing to an inventor to see
an idea which it has cost him so much money and so many years to bring
to perfection his ideas first stolen from him and then : but it not being
my brothers disposition to quarrel with the living much less with
the dead, he sedulously avoid refrained from every thing that
treated even in the much distinct any thing savoured of complaint or , or even complaint, not did any thing and nothing passed between
pass between him & Mr Adam inconsistent with the most perfect unity. but
the letters above alluded to, those which nothing could be more
explicit, should be if it would answered any good purpose
leaving to Mr A. the profit of the building, but my brother
wishes for it the humour and satisfaction of seeing the
Panopticon principle introduced into Edinburgh both as to management but instead of
a bad one; and what I wish for is best I mean in the lest
place in the point of management, but therefore and which honour
it can not be without being it in point of construction. And
if any theory of pecuniary profit to be had derived from
the introduction there of any particular mechanical inventions
what we both hope is, and I hope we are not altogether
unreasonable in our hope is that the benefit should be
reaped by the author instead of being altogether last or taken usurped from
him by strangers
