ever was reversed by the Supreme Court
because certain dispositions were rejected

which should have been excluded, because
the notice Of its taking was itself without
date, and did not state the year in which
the deposition would be taken-only Civ

made him the subject of many Q scowl
and pun at the hands Of the multitudln-

whatever else may be said concerning
the worthy Chancellor, none will dispute
that his decisions always carry with them
a weight Of philosophy and wholesome
