About this Item

16pp. Four loose bifolia, unbound as issued. Scattered spotting. 'To this quasi religious cynics who now heap their venomous spite upon Dr. Kenealy, I would say, "Who made thee a ruler and a judge?" correct your own faults, and learn to comfort yourselves with moderation, manliness, and ordinary decency.' An apparently unrecorded anonymous penny biography ('extracted by permission from the sixpenny edition') of barrister and writer Edward Vaughan Hyde Kenealy (1819- 1880), notable for his role as junior counsel for the defence of William Palmer, the Rugeley poisoner, and his controversial position of leading counsel for the Tichborne claimant -at the time of publication still ongoing - and for which he was ultimately disbarred. Size: 8vo.
