It may nor perhaps be expected as a thing of course, that I
should name the sum which, under the Act of Parliament, all circumstances
taken into account, I look upon as my due.
This is however a task, from which in no particular a case
as the present. I hope to stand excused. It could not answer any purpose.
The sum which it to my Arbitrators will have seemed the proper one,
not any sum proposed by me as the proper one, is the sum which they

the sum is what they will have to do at any ray, in every case but
that of their acceding without variation, to the precise sum named,
supposing any such sum named, by me.
To the purpose of my person, to whom either
nomination would be of no small use. Be the grounds ever so good,
the sum so named by me would spread itself every where (for in this
transaction I know of nothing that either can, or ought to be )
without any of these grounds for its support. If to my arbitrators, the sum
