He graduated in 1812 and was soon after made a fellow of Exeter ; in 1819 he was called to the bar at the Middle Temple and practised for some years on the western circuit. In 1824, on Gifford 's retirement, he assumed the editorship of the Quarterly Review , resigning it a year afterwards in favour of Lockhart. In 1825 he published his excellent edition of Blackstone's Commentaries, and in 1832 he was made a serjeant-at-law and recorder of Exeter . In 1835 he was appointed one of the judges of the king's bench. In 1852 his university created him a D.C.L., and in 1858 he resigned his judgeship, and was made a member of the privy council.
