Excerpt from Sketches of the Life and Character of Patrick Henry Other causes, too, have contributed to delay the publication. The author is a practising lawyer; and the courts which he attends, keep him perpetually and exclusively occupied in that attendance, through ten months of the year; nor does the summer recess of two months afford a remission from professional labour. In Virginia, the duties of attorney, counsellor, conveyancer, and advocate, are all performed by the same individual hence, the summer vocea tion, instead of being a time of leisure, is not only the season of preparation for the approaching courts, but is subject, moreover, to a perpetual recurrence of what are here called ofice duties, which renders a steady application to any other subject impossible.
