Man, but the Treasurer of this Hospl. hold such a duty to its Interests<lb></lb>
& the Public that I cannot bring before the Grand Committee any<lb></lb>
voluntary Preposition which does not appear to me advanta-<lb></lb>
-geous & far to all Parties. There are 700 Acres of land belongg<lb></lb>
to this farm, & situate as it is close to the River, abounding with<lb></lb>
Child & every other local Advantage, I am of Opinion it is<lb></lb>
worth near double the rent as present paid for it. That point<lb></lb>
must in the sent Instance be completely as retained, after which<lb></lb>
we shall talk about building Etc. I went Farr would adopt your<lb></lb>
