HL Deb 22 June 1805 vol 5 c549

The house met by special adjournment at one o'clock, and soon after their lordships resolved into a committee, for the farther consideration of the case of Mr. Justice Fox. The remaining witnesses upon the charge under consideration being examined, Mr. Romilly, in a speech of considerable length, summed up and commented upon the effect of the evidence; at the conclusion of which the counsel were ordered to withdraw. The house then resumed, and

Lord Hawkesbury gave notice, that on Tuesday next he should submit a motion to their lordships for suspending the proceedings in the case of Mr. Justice Fox, during the present session. He should, on the same day, present a bill to the effect he had formerly stated, namely, to continue the proceeding in the state they then were in the next session of parliament.
