Master of the Rolls, the Vice-Chancellor, the Lord Chief
Justice of the Court of Common Pleas, and Mr. Baron
Parke.

Their Lordships having been sworn, the nominated roll
of last year was read over. On each county being named,
the Judges of the Courts of King's Bench, Common Pleas,
and Exchequer, proposed to their Lordships the name of a
gentleman to add to the list, in lieu of the present Sheriff ;
and at the same time stated any objections of parties placed
on the roll last year, and applying to be excused ; in the
cases where 'the name was struck off, a second or third
name was proposed by the. Judges, three gentlemen being
nominated for each county. In one county complaint was
made to the Judge on that Circuit of the difficulty expe-
rienced by the High Sheriff in procuring eligible names,
owing to so many gentlemen purchasing commissions in the
militia, and thus rendering themselves exempt.
