Same day, the Right Hen. Sir LANCELOT SHADWELL,
Vice-Chancellor of England, at his residence, the Barn Elms,
Putney. This event was hourly expected from Friday afternoon,
when the symptoms of the paralytie attack under which he
laboured for the last month became painfully alarming. The
death of so good and so able a man will be greatly lamented.
He presided over a branch of the Court of Chancery since the
year 1827, and secured the entire respect of the profession by
the general soundness and invariable impartiality of his judg-
ment, by the regularity of his attendance in his court, and his
untiring assiduity in the disposal of his business. Sir Lancelot
Shadwell was the son of a barrister well known in his day in the
courts of law, lie was born in the year 1779, snd was educated
at St. John's College, Cambridge, at which university he took a
humble degree as seventh wrangler and junior medallist. He
subsequently obtained a fellowship, and 1803 was called to the
bar at Lincoln's-inn. In 1821 he was appointed a king's coun-
sel, and in 1826 he obtained a seat in Pediment for the borough
of Ripon, where he exercised much influence in consequence of
his filling the position of a justice of the estates of the late Miss
a 1
Lawrence, who owned the major part of the borough property.
As already stated, Sir Lancelot was made Vice-Chancellor in
1827.1 Greatn

enacted by the 37th clause that no such officer should hencefor-
ward receive more than £5,000 a-year, or a retiring pension of
larger amount than 43,500. Mr. Page Wood is mentioned as
likely to succeed the late Sir Lancelot Shadwell, it being under-
stood that the Attorney-General will not accept the office.
