the new Sheriffs, according to annual, custom,
were presented before the Cursitor Baron of the
ExCheqUer, and the Sheriffs for the preceding
t,
year.ittended.to surrender up their office.
•SoOn•after three o'clock the procession arrived
at Westminster-bridge, and proceeded on foot
across Palace-yard to the COnrt of Exchequer.
The COMMON SERJEINT, in the absence of the
Recorder, then presented the new Sheriffs to his
Lordship, and after paying a compliment to their
character and abilities, stated that the gentlemen
who served the office of Sheriff for the past year
now attended, according to usage, to give up
their office, and render an account of their issues
to his Majesty.
•
• .The new Sheriffs then put in the warrant ap-
pOinting their attorney, which was filed.
The last year's Sheriffs then took an oath to
render to his Majesty an account of the issues of
their office.
The CommoN SERJEANT then, on their behalf,
tendered their warrant of attorney, appointing
Mr. Collingridge and Mr. Turner, the Under
Sheriffs of the late Sheriffs, to render in such ac-
count. _ _

ment. 1 never put in Mr. Collingridge."
Mr. Ald. ROTHWELL.—" I appear in. person."

jection to Mr. Pullen ?" Mr. ELL.—" I
