7 Jany 1807

At this moment, Your Lordship may perhaps feel more or it may perhaps have presented itself to Your
Lordship as a matter of curiosity less curiosity, as I must confess I did, to know learn the cause
of this deficiency: for everything we see, if we one did but know
it, has its sufficient cause. Cooks so many indeed, but so
skilful, broth so bad, what spoilt it? did not they know how
to make better.

A Mr Bill, I really at this moment I do not know
whether the gentleman to whom we are so much indebted for
his lectures on jurisprudential formularies or some other of
the same name got a peep into the kitchen at his cost.

Noting the deficiency, to look upon him to supply it.
No monopoly proclaimed, no prohibition promulgated, he too
published a history of decisions: and in his history were
to be found the words not only of those whose words make
argument, but of those whose words make law. Mr Bill
convened; convened coram nobis, wherever nobis were. Mr Bill,
whether it were the same gentleman to whose lot it had fallen already or fell
afterwards to give lectures, thus received use. Decisions if you
please; arguments of Advocates, if you please: but as to
reasonings and dicta of their Lordships, these are all secrets,
if you go on publishing, we begin suspending. Look to the
decisions published by authority: there is your model:
copy that and welcome.

Meaning to Mr Bill's object being to supply deficiencies, fill up blanks,
and not to copy them, there of course his publication ended.
