As soon as the report of the four and the protest of the three had been laid on the table and read by the clerk, it was resolved that a Resumption Bill should be brought in.

It was then resolved, in opposition to the plainest principles of justice, that no petition from any person who might think himself aggrieved by this bill should ever be received.

It was necessary to consider how the commissioners should be remunerated for their services; and this question was decided with impudent injustice.

It was determined that the commissioners who had signed the report should receive a thousand pounds each.

But a large party thought that the dissentient three deserved no recompense; and two of them were merely allowed what was thought sufficient to cover the expense of their journey to Ireland.
