PETITION.
Mr. BENNET presented a Petition from an indi-
vidual of great respectability, and, he believed, of great
property, by the name of Trimmer, complaining of the
unfair conduct of the Commissioners of his Majesty's
Woods and rorrsts, in grantinz the lease of (-email
lands in Wales to Lady Penryn, although he made the
first offer for them: The Petitioner also stated, that
the Iliadic revenue sustained a great lose is roost-forma.
of Mr. Pennant, who was the incumi,ent lessee of the
estate, not working a state quarry oil the estate to the
extent which he was bound to 114/ Ira his Ile con-
sidered this to be a case of private liAr.l,llip and
put.-
1k importance ; and as he hail Amu the Pe!itiott
the Honourable Secretary to the Woo s anti Forests
opposite, he hoped he would be able to -ai'r'ed the
House some satisfactory information on the stthject.
Mr. HUSKISSON admitted that the lion. lientlentan
had favonreil him with a previous knowledge of the con-
tents of the Petition, and lie hail therefore been enabled
to make himself aciptaitori with the circtonstancea of
the case. The charges of the Petitioner were, that the
estate had been let to others, although he was the first
to apply, and that the lease was forfeited by the present
lessee, Mr. Pennant, from his not working a slate quarry
according to the articles of his lease. In the first place
he had to observe, that the Petitioner was not the first
applicant, Lady Penryn having appiied three years be-
fore bins, and seconded her application by exhib:ting a
lease which had been granted to some of her ancestors,
by which it was contended she haul a legal claim upon
the oiler of the estate to lease. The claim was Ailittted
and the opinions of several legal tientlemen were taken
on the subject, and there was every appearance of its be-
coming a litigated question for a most trifling consiolera-
ti )))) , when it was agreed to let Lady Pettryn have fur
estate on condition of her giving up another disputed
point, viz.: the right of the Crown to the iptarry to
question. Ile hoped the House %timid see. tlirrefmr,
that an improvident harzain h' not havii male, and
a,
that the first complaint of the Petitioner was litifoittlde.l.
With regard to the second charge, that Mr. Pennant slid
nut execute the condition of his lease, he had every rea-
son to believe that was equally unfonttleti, but if the
Hot,. Member bail any desire of further information on
the subject lie might have it by a full isispection of th
he
e
papers in his (Mr. Huskiason's) possesion, by which
would see that great pains had been taken to put this
matter on a right footing.
Mr D. PENNANT vindicated his own rondnef from
the charges of the Petitioner. The Petition, he observed,
charged him wilt only working the quarry, which be.
