A aeries of portraits of outstanding members of the English Bar by Lord Birkett
6: Thomas Erstine 1750-1823
' Thomas Erskine ,' says Lord Birkett, ' was the very greatest advocate who ever practised at the English Bar. There was a time at the end of the eighteenth century when his name was on every lip as the fearless defender of the rights of the citizen. Erskine's name is for ever associated with his victories in the cause of the freedom of the Press, the independence of the Bar, and the independence of juries.'
Erskine, who had been a midshipman and a soldier, became a lawyer almost by accident. But he was the lawyer his age most required, and his advocacy in the cause of individual liberty in face of attempts by the Government to pervert justice made both law and history.
