My conception is in the case in which I am concerned that it is more for Mr Addington's interest
rather to obey the law than rather than to persist in violating it
rather to fulfill an engagement of years standing than to
persist in breaking it: rather to establish a system of certain
reformation, rather than to maintain by waste of public money a system
of unexampled and altogether less corruptions. abominations [+]? [+] rather to put an
end to a course of
injury, if the warranty
of which he is most
fully appraised, unless
by his own wilful default
he has determined
it has been his determination
not to be so, than<lb?>to persist in acting the

and an accomplice. Should you

regard for that Public interest service the interest of which is so closely linked with
that of his personal reputation, will lead you I suppose, to

The Counsel I spoke of agreeing with me on every point as to the law about
N. S. Wales is Romilly. It is true that you He is the person alluded to in
the correspondence. I have his opinion over this; but I would not make use of
his name till he had given me leave more than once in express terms, and
written me a letter for this purpose. I cross examined him more than once about
his opinion: instead of a kindness it would have been an injury both to me
and indeed to himself if any thing the more to lend me in error — and eventually
not the Public transportation of it. in the ness one part of such .
You will expect to hear from me what reason I
have to assign for the truth I am now giving you, and
the part I am endeavouring to put into your hands.
and what it is in particular that I look for at your hands.
This very same legal discussion this very same discussion
had it been presented directly by and from me to Mr Addington
would have been thrown aside and unlooked at (as waste paper)
He would have said to himself. This man pretends to impugn the
work of the Crown Lawyer: and he is himself no Lawyer.
It was on this account I thought it advisable to take the opinion
of Mr Romilly.

Reasons for applying
to C.A.
1. Addington would
not trust to J.B.'s
opinion not even
Romilly.
Had I [still] sent it to Mr Addington with no other opinion
than that of Mr Romilly — the principle of self-delusion
would still have had a whisper ready for him. This
man it is true is a lawyer and a great lawyer. He is at the
very head of the Chancery Bar. But still he is not a Crown
Lawyer. He was passed by, not without reason in the late creation
of Crown Lawyers. He is not a party Lawyer indeed.
but he was generally understood not to think well of the Administration
that recommended and supports me: and as to the
opinion he here, it is justly out of pique to th me and my
friends — partly to serve his friend.
