The privilege of recommending to his Majesty's grace the
person by whom the office in question shall be on a vacancy be filled, devolved

noble Clerk of the Pleas in the Irish Exchequer the
well paid office of Clerk of the Pleas fell vacant: and to
this accident or this providence the justice of the same
fortunate Kingdom stands indebted for the Hobart portion
of the Hobart and York sine £12,000 a year sinecure.
