To the PURCHASERS of the SESSIONS-PAPER.

THE practice which has of late obtained, of giving in most of the news-papers accounts of the Trials at the Old-Bailey, has so reduced the sale of the Sessions-Paper, as to occasion me a considerable loss by that publication; I am therefore obliged (though not without some reluctance, having been employed in that business from almost my childhood) to decline printing any longer the Trials at the Old Bailey: And I request leave to embrace this opportunity of making my unfeigned acknowledgements to the Public in general, and to the Gentlemen of the Law in particular, for that candour to which I am in some measure indebted for the degree of estimation in which the Sessions-Paper has been constantly held for its accuracy.

GURNEY.

November 13, 1781.
