About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1784 edition. Excerpt: ...him: that, some time after, the Duke proposed him, and the Lord Chancellor, to the the King for that honour, who refused 1754 both, and told him, he supposed he de-March signed to leave nobody on the Baron's Bench; and now that he had cheated Lord Barnard out of the settlement of succession to his estate, he wanted to make him amends by promoting him to be an Earl.

This story shews the uneasiness of Mr. Pelham's situation in his private life. Lord Barnard pressed me much, to suggest whom I thought proper to fill Mr. Pelham's place, I said, the Solicitor--that would not dohe would not take it--the people would not bear it. I said, then put a Lord at the head, and make a Chancellor...
