It is easy, it is natural, and on the part of gentlemen who conceive themselves aggrieved by the choice, it may be sufficient, to say, the world is wide enough, you will find places enough: go elsewhere, in short any where but here. And if they may say so, so may they say without enquiry: for nothing calls upon them to enquire. But if your Memorialist is to be believed, who has made enquiry and who has been months in making it, there is no such choice. We can't go elsewhere: there is no elsewhere in the case.
The enquiry, as your Lordships see, would at any rate hardly be a short one: but a long one would, if not manifestly necessary, be clearly undefensible. The very act of instituting is would be an offence against the words of the act at the very opening of it your Lordships are not only empowered but "required" to do one of two things, and that "soon" "as soon after the passing "thereof as conveniently may be": "to fix" either "upon the "said piece or pieces of ground" or else "upon" some "other "as convenient & proper spot."
