Q.S.P. July 16 — 1792
Dear Sir
Excuse the liberty freedom I use I ta assume in taking making you for
my confident. I am duly sensible to the honour of your
good opinion in favour of the Panopticon plan and to the
endeavours you have so kindly used employ'd I support of it.
What I apprehend, <s and what I even suspected from your letter
is that they have been ineffectual: if so, the last favour I have
to ask of you, and a shall not that an inconsiderable or one as is, is that you
will have the goodness to tell me so. at once. I have
been assured most positively that the plan never will be adopted,
let what will be thought of it: for that the gentleman
to whose department it more particularly belongs has personal
predilections which are incompatible with it, and
connections much too strong for a stranger like me to get break the
better of. Useless as it would be for me to allow myself to
think about the cause, I will state to you with equal simplicity
