    Release, executed by the said Marquis, and dated the 12 th of the said Month of October, Your

    Memorialist, in such his quality of Feoffee, became purchaser of the said

    for the use of the said intended Penitentiary House, after reservation made

    Waste, prepared by direction of Your Lordships, having been perused and

    approved by his Majesty's then Attorney and Sollicitor General, a
