though the plan itself should not have the honour of his
approbation, especially as I understand it has already
that of Mr. Hobart's. And independently of the Penitentiary
business, which is the only new concern, would
not those others which I suppose have already obtained his
sanction, the House of - Industry business I mean and the
Model which is the thing that presses.
If you think proper to make use of the margin of this
paper for your answer it may save you trouble. I will
not tax your politeness for circumlocutory expressions.
Single words such as approved or disapproved &c, defining
by brackets or otherwise the extent of the matter to which
such an answer is meant to comprise, will answer every purpose
and a Copy of it in that state shall be returned to you.
I must defer to another day what concerns the question
between an Irish & an English Architect, as likewise a few other
matters. But of these there is nothing that need detain you in
London.
In my letter of yesterday ‖ I gave you reason to expect this
in the course of the present day. On second thoughts I thought it
better to defer the sending of it till early tomorrow morning
as by that means my messenger may if you think proper bring
me back an Answer which by the post I could not have before
Tuesday, and I found by him there were no signs of your departure
as to day ‡ — I have the honour to be
with the truest respect
Sir, Your most obed:t humble Serv.t
Jeremy Bentham
R:t Hon: S:r John Parnell,
&c, &c, &c —
‖ Only for the purpose of announcing this.
