Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life and Correspondence of Philip Yorke Earl of Hardwicke, Vol. 3: Lord High of Chancellor of Great Britain
Mr George Grenville closed the debate by reading the 4th Resolution of the Lords and their address to the Queen, drawn by Lord Somers in 17044, and asked what that great Lawyer, Statesman and Freeman would have thought, if the words at the discretion of the judge had been added to that Resolution.
On putting the question for commitment the ayes were very loud and almost universal the noes only 6 or 8. So no division.
