1825. Decr 7
Constitutional CodeCh. XXIV. Professl Lawyers
§. 1. Class but one.

Whatsoever of the relief it was their pleasure to administer was understood
to be matter of grace and favour: th humbly
"sheweth to your Lordship your Orator" so and so was th and
continues to be the commencement of the written instrument
by which the favour of the great man is supplicated: in tender
consideration thereof are the five is and continues to be the commencement
of that part of it in which the service requested
at his hands is set forth. This matter of grace and favour
whatsoever it was was the acknowledged subject or object of solicitation.
Solicitor was the accordingly the denomination assumed by
the professional functionary to whom alone it could be understood
upon what term at the expence of his client
solici
any attention to the solicitation would be bestowed.

The particular sort of business of which the Solicitor was the Agent
was a sort of business by which less odium and more
importance was reflected in the character of the Agent than
by the miscellaneous business of in which the Attorney was the
Agent: property to a greater the greatest amount being at stake, and in

brought in case any property to an amount so little considerable
as that which in the majority of cases fell under the care
of the Attorney, it be the principals employers with whom it brought the
Agent into contact were persons of proportionable importance,
them who the sort of Agent by whom that same business was performed.
How then was a double for carting off The all comprehensive assumption of the
name denomination of Solicitor had thus a double motive: the making
the escape from the odium which by the operation of the same cause
and with the same comparative injustice as in the French case
had come to fashion itself upon the denomination Attorney, and
the taking seat in the English assumption of the highest degree
of importance to which
the profession was led the
road. Within the memory
of him who the writer of
this. Mr such an one was the Attorney at law was the common commencement of the superscription of a letter addressed to a person by whom that profession
was exercised. the Since then the prefix Mr has given silence to the suffix Solicitor added to Attorney at law would be regarded as an affront.
