My learned friend (as all who know him must have antici- pated) delivered his evidence with the greatest clearness and precision, and in a manner most dis- passionate ; and when you recollect, besides, that he is a man of singular ability, and that, from his elevated situation in the court, he had the best op- portunity of observing everything that passed, you cannot fail to pay greater attention to his testi- mony, and to that of Mr, Justice Heath, who immediately followed him, than to any oth...er wit- nesses, however respectable. In bringing before you Mr. Serjeant Shepherd's evidence, I will not trouble you with that part of it which went to facts which are now no longer disputed, but will take it up from the time when the jury returned into court. Mr. Serjeant Shep- herd says, "Lord Thauet was standing before the 18 c 274 ME. ERSKINE'S SPEECH ON THE bar at which the prisoners stood, with his face turned toward the court ; he was rather to the right hand of Mr. O'Connor nearest to the great street of Maidstone, where the gaoler sat.
