XVII Hulk mortality
Hulk Inspectorship
King's unfitness
Your Lordship was not always thus resigned. In the
heyday/virtue of youth morn of new wedded power, on stepping into the place office
Your Lordship looked round amongst the furniture—
Your Lordship looked about round for the qualities that should
fit a man for the function of it. Common knowledge of
what every body else knew: possibility of finding a
necessary paper:+ necessary to the dispatch of business a head capable
heart not altogether insensible to the distinction difference though this was of less importance between right
treachery and good faith: a tongue not altogether insensible to the distinction between truth and falshood:
and wrong: an eye capable of distinguishing between black &
white. Your Lordship looked round and was disappointed: no such
were to be found: Your Lordship was for a time dissatisfied.
Your Lordship for a while and struggled.
and struggles have are long since been back in shape.
The Two measures and but two are the sight of life
exhibited by Your Lordship during an administration of a
month; two measures sanctioned by two Acts and the two
Acts are these. Two Acts both of them to provide for a
gentleman already provided for to his hearts content: one
to his recompense, the other to reduce his .
Kings unfitness
Ignorance of N.S.
Wales.
I had occasion to get back, for the purpose of the business
a paper I had left with him. I asked a gentleman high
under him looked and looked looking was in vain and in vain. Sir, says
he it is always so: so with every thing: we are at our
wit's end: when Mr such a one gets hold of a paper
there's an end of it. This from a stranger to a stranger
without a question that could lead to it. Why not? when
a fact is to a certain degree notorious, not even a friend
can suspect any use in forbearing to make withholding himself from the mention of it.
While though I have been a personal sufferer by these things
without a reason why I should make secret of them? Is there any
thing in saying that I should shut preclude the door against complaint, preclude
a man from pointing out the cause of it—from pointing out the only
cause by which it
cab be made to cease?
Would
no ill humour
no , no design,
accident produced the
occurrence; accident produced
the observation
grounded on it.
