Extract from the "Times" of June 25th, 1836:—
"To the Editor of the 'Times.'
"Sir,—Having seen in the 'Times' of this morning that the action of 'Norton v. Lord Melbourne' was advised 'by the able and upright counsel who conducted it,' we think it is due to Sir William Follett to state, that the action was not brought under his advice; and that although he was retained so far back as the 25th of April last, the evidence was not in complete state for his brief to be delivered to him until the 14th of June inst., and when no course was open to the parties but to proceed with the trial of the cause, which had been fixed for the present sittings.
"We are. Sir, your most obedient Servants,
(Signed)"Currie and Woodqate."
