Excerpt from A Letter to the Hon. Robert Baldwin I am not confident that the liberty which I have taken in addressing you in this public manner, may not be considered as the abuse, rather than the just use, of the friend ship with which I would fain believe myself honoured. But deeply impressed as I have long been, with the absolute necessity of some alteration, in the constitution of the superior courts of justice, in the portion of this Province Wherein we reside 5 and having had frequent experience of that zeal for the public good, which is not to be deterred, by consid erations of a personal character, from under taking whatever has a tendency to promote the general welfare, I have persuaded myself, that even those weak and ill-digested thoughts, which had occurred to me, on a subject so important as the administration of justice, would not be regarded by you, as altogether impertinent.
