My Dear Sir,
Will you allow me to dedicate this little work to you, as some small recognition of the patience, care, and legal knowledge you displayed in bringing to a successful issue the difficult proceedings before the Attorney-General, Sir Roundell Palmer (now Lord Selborne), and also those in Chancery, connected with the sealing of my Ghost Patent by order of the late Lord Chancellor Westbury, in September, 1863?
With a grateful sense of the personal kindness and attention I have received from yourself and the other members of your Firm,
I am, my dear Sir,
Your old Client and sincere Friend,
The Author.
