1276. Nathaniel White to his brother Cornelius. Prevalence of cholera in England will probably check the ardour for reform. His admiration or the Duke of Wellington as a statesman. Comments on matrimony and his own prospects of marrying, which improve with his new appointment as Registrar in Chancery. Extended comment on John A. Barry's case in the Admiralty Court. "Poor Barry got a sore cudgelling the other day...both from Uniacke & the old Chief [Blowers] who sat as Judge. The old fellow allowed him to run on without checking him until he had completely enclosed himself in his own web & then pounced upon him like a spider upon a fly it had entrapped & in the most quiet way stung him almost to madness...The old hypocrite in his snake-like way lured him on by degrees until poor Barry thought he was sure of him & had at last found a friend in Court - but poor fellow he discovered too late that he had a wily fox to deal with. I never listened to such a biting piece of satyr - & this too from a man of 90!". He quotes Blowers' summing up of the case. Holograph.
