SS.4 Earlier Symptoms Rose

B.2. Mr Rose to Mr Bentham. 24th Feby 1798

Recommends his laying Panopticon before Finance Committee - approves
Solitary Confinement - knows nothing of his expence.

I observe by some oOrders from the Committee on Finance,
that among other subjects, they are about to enter on the
consideration of the expence of the Convicts; which I am extremely
glad of for various reasons- I think you may with perfect
propriety (a) lay before them the whole of your plan; they (a) See Note
may perhaps think themselves confined to the expence only
of the systems, but the difficulty might be got over by a
special Instruction: in any event it is competent to them
to consider your proposal for taking care of the Convicts in
the Hulks. (b) i have always wished well to the measure proposed (b) See Note
by you of solitary confinement, (c) and am sorry so (c) See Note
many difficulties have occurred about it:(d) the one you last
mentioned I could not foresee (e). If the Committee can be (a) See Note
prevailed with to take up the business, the public would
be satisfied, that it should either proceed, or at once be (c) See Note
given up as they should Report, because I am sure their
opinion would have very great weight, as it ought to have.

I am quite ignorant of the expence you state yourself (f) See Notes
to have been at .(f)
