ORNAMENTS OF THE LAW.

TO TIIE EDITOR OF THE SPECTATOR.

Stu,—In your last Number there were some clever observations on the "Vex- ations Regulations at the Inner Temple," and a quotation comprising an account of the origin of "the greatest ornaments of the bench and bar." Is it worth your while to notice an omission relating to this pointP I allude to the late Chief Baron Richards—" the lawyer and the gentleman ;" whose father was a web- maker—perhaps I ought to say a weaver—in a small town in North Wales.
