To Sir J Parnel Letter II
Aug. 17th 1790
Sir
I am much
obliged by the very
explicit communications
with which
you have honoured been pleased
me to favour me - With regard
to the buildings
for the charity
I am not sure
whether under by
the "consult"ation
you do me the
honour to propose
you meant by in the way of
letter correspondence after your
return to Ireland,
or in the way of viva voce
here in England
a conversation here
in England. In another way I am
equally at your service. In
the latter case
I will wait on
you with great
pleasure in Wimpole
Street at
any time you
will please to appoint:
observing however
that whatever time
of the day your
letter is put in
I it will not reach
shall not have it
till the next day afternoon
nor consequently
can obey your
commands some
time the day after.

Have you seen
Sir T. Beevor's
account of the
Penitentiary House
build under established by his
procurement at
Wymondham in
Norfolk — I mention
it on account
of the experimental
proof of it affords
of the frugality of
this mode of punishment,
the profit
of the earnings
having been turned out more
than double the expence
of maintenance.
It is I have it in
the Annual .
of for 1786, in
which it is said
to be extracted from
the 3d Vol. of the
Bath Society of
Agriculture.
I take the liberty
of including another
account from Oxford
of which the
result is little less
favourable. If you
have not already
a copy of it, this
is at your service.
as I dare say I
shall be able to
get another.
