Question 4th What ground is it now proposed should be
purchased for the purpose of the Establishment?
Answer. A part of Tothill Fields; together with such addition
from the Ground adjacent (and which may be purchased under
the existing Act) as shall be necessary to make up the Quantity
allotted to the Establishment by that Act.
Question 5th. The Committee have understood that certain
difficulties have attended the choice of the Spot—should these
difficulties prove unsurmountable in the instance of Tothill Fields
is there any other Spot in contemplation that you think would
answer the purpose?
Answer. I Know of no other Spot whatever that would
answer the purpose in any valuable degree, and at the same time
afford me any near an equal prospect of seeing the choice
finally approved. This is the last of four Places, each of which
at the outset afforded me prospects, which in the three preceding
instances proved delusive.
Nothing could be more decided than the approbation
bestowed upon this Spot upon the very first mention of it. Legal
obstacle, with the existence of which nobody is chargeable, have
been unavoidably productive of a part of the delays. As far as
I may be permitted to Judge, the great aversion entertained to the
employing in the present Case, or applying for, the compulsive
powers regularly granted as often as Land is to be Purchased for
a Public purpose, is, and has been throughout, the only source of
difficulty, at least at the Fountain Head. I am satisfied in
my own mind, that the Business would have been found, that
