Excerpt from Lives of the Lord Chancellors and Keepers of the Great Seal of England, Vol. 8 of 10: From the Earliest Times Till the Reign of King George IV I thank the honourable and learned gentleman for his intention of moving for a committee to inquire into the causes of these riots. He Will be the fittest man to conduct such an inquiry, seeing that he knows more of such matters than any of the King's present servants.

Excerpt from Lives of the Lord Chancellors and Keepers of the Great Seal of England, Vol. 8 of 10: From the Earliest Times Till the Reign of King George IV I thank the honourable and learned gentleman for his intention of moving for a committee to inquire into the causes of these riots. He Will be the fittest man to conduct such an inquiry, seeing that he knows more of such matters than any of the King's present servants. I hope he will inquire not only into the causes Of the assembling of recent mobs, but Of those which have alarmed the public for the last three or four years, as I know that the honourable and learned gentleman has frequently declared in this House and in other places, that this wicked Administration has been the cause of all the misfortunes that have befallen the country - that nothing but the removal of this Wicked Administration, and the dissolution of this profligate Parliament, could restore the peace and happiness of the kingdom.' I am persuaded that all his powers of eloquence will be directed to those great objects. This inquiry will afford him the finest possible opportunity Of discharging the debt which he still owes to his country. As no man is better able, so no man, I am sure, can be better inclined', to do it; for I have heard him declare from this bench that the King'schief minister ought to be impeached. The honourable and learned gentleman has kept exceeding good company - I do not say great company - but what I consider very honest company - the freemen of the corporation of London! If I am not mistaken, he did not disdain himself to become a. Member of that body; and I believe he was pleased to receive the freedom of the city in a gold box. Although since that time the honourable and learned gentleman has formed new connections, he cannot have altogether abandoned the sentiments by which he was formerly actuated. Of all men, therefore, he is the fittest to bring the causes and the occasions of these disturbances to public light.
