Not that such the disaster in question would be altogether without
it's alleviations. One is that after the new System had been
brought upon the Carpet, years nobody can exactly say how many
would necessarily be consumed, before it could be established:
2 the already existing together with the intermediately springing up crop of
suits would for another indefinite period be operating in retardation of the Catastrophe. Moreover, if not for the
consolation of the leaders at any rate for that of the profession in general, a
very considerable increase indeed to the number of moderately
paid Judgeships would, in the new Law-lottery make some atonements a very
considerable — it might be a compleat amount for the discontinuance of the great prizes. Under these
circumstances, to blame their opposition in one's own mind
would be as idle, as to blame wolves for devouring sheep: but
though I would not blame a wolf for this, I would, if I had
sheep, not only kill wolves wherever I found them, but
wherever occasion called cry out wolf, that my neighbours might do the like.

Offer.
Comes now at last the Offer — the practical
object of this already too long intrusion To you, Sir M.r Humphreys can not, I think be altogether
unknown: to me, he is most perfectly so. This ignorance,
that I might have to declare if has been carefully
preserved. What I should of course expect to find in
him is — a lawyer, who, having to make his way in the
world, is ready to do for that purpose whatsoever he sees done
without reproach.

As to me, taking always a more mere auxiliary part,
I think in one way or other, I could, in respect of this plan
of his, be, of more or less of use to him. Encouragement,
