DEDICATION.

To MR. SERGEANT STORKS.

DEAR MR. SERGEANT,

To you I dedicate this sketch of the Life of my late brother, Henry Cooper; and, for three good reasons the first, because, you were associated with my brother on circuit, knew him well, and were one of those, who being often opposed to him in court, were best able to appreciate his talents, eloquence, and the general powers of his mind; my second, because, when young, I have listened often to your eloquence, and been made merry by your wit and humour; my third, because, you have known all my family, and by one and all are much respected; and my dear Mr. Sergeant, with kind regards to yourself, and best wishes to you and yours,

Believe me, Yours very truly, WILLIAM COOPER... Continue reading book >>
