Q.S.P. Westmr 23 Feb. 1798.

Sir

I understand from the Sollr Genl that the
Bill (the Tothill Fields Penitentiary Bill) is unexceptionable
– that the consent of the parties may
be dispensed with – but that the Bill is regarded
as an Inclosure Bill – and that as such it can
not be brought into Parliament this till next session, for want
of certain notices which in the such cases must be
and that this is also the opinion the Speaker, to whom the Sollr
has had the goodness to mention the business
of his own accord.⊞ ⊞ making 5 1/2 years
from the time of
my being ordered to
take my arrangements
at the end of which
commences I am thus doomed This then is a certain suspension
of the business for twelvemonth another year⊞ <note>⊞ For my own part
I do not perfectly
pretend why how it should be it is that
government is to should in a public bill be bound
by restrictions intended
only for individuals, for the sake of
parties who after all
are to derive no benefit
from them since do after
all they are to what any will part with
their rights: – but so it is
competent judges have
spoken, and return is my past
after a struggle
of 4 1/2 years. </note>
