Excerpt from Misrepresentations in Campbell's Lives of Lyndhurst and Brougham In Lord Lyndhurst's life, he observes that Lyndhurst took the new Government of Lord Derby under his special guardianship, ready at all times to support it by praising its measures, and the men who composed it, including Sugden, the new Chancellor, hitherto an object of his special aversion. And again in 1852 he states, that Lyndhurst paid a very just tribute of applause to the Bill for abolishing Masters in Chancery, prepared according to the Report of a Whig Commission, and presented by Lord St. Leonards, the Protectionist Chancellor. Lyndhursts zeal carried him so far as to pronounce this functionary the model of every cancellarian good quality, accomplishment, and virtue, - declaring that no Government ever was more fortunate in a Chancellor, and that the present occupant of the Woolsack, besides being the greatest of lawyers, was distinguished by his placid temper and his mild and gentlemanly manners.
