 fourth win of Andrew, Viscount S'.ormont, and was 

 liorn at Perth, 2d March 1704. r'roin Westminster 

 he paoM-d to Christ < hurcli, Oxford, graduated 

 M.A. in 17-'Wt, nud was called to the liar the follow- 

 ing year. He SIMIII acquired an extensive practice 

 mainly, it would seem, on account of his facility 

 and force as a R|ieaker, for licit her then nor at any 

 snlis t -i|in-nt periiul of his career was he reckoned a

 lield of Mansfield, in the county of Nottingham. 

 Although he was impartial and tolerant (U* a judge, 

 hi opinions were not those of the |Hipiilar side, and 

 accordingly he was exposed to much abuse and
