Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of the Lord Chancellors and Keepers of the Great Seal of England, Vol. 4 of 10: From the Earliest Times Till the Reign of King George IV It might have been more interesting to have traced his career through difficulties and discouragements, than if it had been the easy result Of birth and fortune; but unluckily he has suffered more from biographical neglect than even Somers or Cowper, and the materials have perished from which it might have been hoped that tardy justice would still have been done to his memory. Unless when he was actually mix ing in public transactions, little can be known of him by this age or by posterity.
