of my own knowledge my direct information
over and above what is contained in
that letter. At the same time I am
not under any apprehension of your
experiencing any difficulty in the ascertaining
the point through some more authentic
channel. Mr White I suppose
is not at hand to be consulted
to whom I gave the receipt and by whom I
suppose the money could have been received
from the Treasury, is, I suppose perhaps not at
hand to be consulted, otherwise i should
suppose it is to him you would naturally I suppose have addressed
yourself is in preference to me, Mr but unless it
Whitefor your unwillingness to give to any person unnecessary
trouble, Mr White
I understand is no longer in Office
but perhaps his Clerks or some of them
may be continued under the Gentleman by
whom he has been succeeded. Mr Estcourt
(as I believe I mentioned before) as being the
Agent of the Noble Vendor of the Estate, was the
gentleman

gentleman in to whose hands the money I
suppose was paid. His apartment in the
Stamp Office was under the same roof with
yours: but he, I understand has for some
time quitted it

At the Treasury the transaction was
more or less known to three out of the four<lb/.Chief Clerks, viz. Mr Mitford, Mr Cotton
and Mr Ramas, with all of whom I had
more of less intercourse on the subject of
the £12,000: Mr Cotton I remember more
particularly. with the dates which you
have 10th 11th & 13th of Octr of 1799 I
(I mean to date of the conveyance) I can
not conceive that either any one of those<lb?>gentlemen, if applied to would find any
the least difficulty in furnishing you with
the information you desire — I mean the a "Copy
"of the Warrant, (I conclude a Treasury Warrant) and to check the money was
issued" — I write this at a distance from town, and spend thereby
at a distance from all my papers. But if I had them before me, I see no
prospect of being able to add any material to what it
is there. I have the honour to be Sir &c
Jeremy Bentham
