He thanks him for sending for his 'inspection the old watch which is a nice specimen' but would have been of more interest had it been left in its original condition'. He describes the alterations and his reasons for believing that they were 'done by a French man & I should think prior to the time of your late Brother'. Morgan possesses a watch by Sayller and he 'once saw an extremely curious & beautiful clock of his in a case of silver'. The latter 'has gone through the process of "Restoration" that is removal of all the old curious works & insertion of modern ones to suit the present day - & I think now belongs to one of the Rothschilds'. He returns to the recipient's watch describing it in detail including the comment: 'the ornaments of the dial are in a state which was introduced by Theodor de Bry in the XVI century filled in with black in imitation of niello'. He concludes: 'The date of the watch judging from the stile I consider to be from 1600 to 1625'. 9 Pall Mall [London]. 21 June 1861. unknown

réf. 22600Headed 10 Downing Street Whitehall 6 March 1891. Three pages cr. 8vo bifolium fold marks good condition. "I have read your letter with reference to Mr Justice Stephen with care and I observe that while you throw the whole responsibility on the Government for the continuance of a condition which you describe as 'notorious' and creating 'a general dissatisfaction' you do not advance a single specific allegation as to a failure of justice on which it would be possible to take action. The only course of action open to the Government in the case of a judge whose conduct merits removal is by address to the Crown in both Houses of Parliament. The constitution has very properly made the judges absolutely independent of the Government of the day which so far as they are concerned possesses no Paternal or Disciplinary authority and any Member of Parliament is equally entitled to move an Address with any member of the Government. But this power which you possess in common with ourselves should obviously be exercised with abundant specific proof of the necessity in the public interest of that course. I am not in possession of evidence of that character on which I could feel it my duty to proceed." At this time Smith was First Lord of the Treasury and Leader of the House.
