REMARKS IN VINDICATION OF THE SAME FROM THE ANIMADVERSIONS OF LORD
THURLOW.
1794.
NOTE.
In the sixth article Mr. Burke was supported, on the 16th of
February, 1790, by Mr. Anstruther, who opened the remaining part of
this article and part of the seventh article, and the evidence was
summed up and enforced by him. The rest of the evidence upon the
sixth, and on part of the seventh, eighth, and fourteenth articles,
were respectively opened and enforced by Mr. Fox and other of the
Managers, on the 7th and 9th of June, in the same session. On the
23d May, 1791, Mr. St. John opened the fourth article of charge; and
evidence was heard in support of the same. In the following sessions
of 1792, Mr. Hastings's counsel were heard in his defence, which was
continued through the whole of the sessions of 1793.
On the 5th of March, 1794, a select committee was appointed by the
House of Commons to inspect the Lords' Journals, in relation to
their proceeding on the trial of Warren Hastings, Esquire, and to
report what they found therein to the House, (which committee were
the managers appointed to make good the articles of impeachment
against the said Warren Hastings, Esquire,) and who were afterwards
instructed to report the several matters which had occurred since
the commencement of the prosecution, and which had, in their
opinion, contributed to the duration thereof to that time, with
their observations thereupon.
