Shaping the Eighteenth-Century Criminal Trial: a View from the Ryder Sources John H The University of Chicago Law Review VOLUME 50 NUMBER 1 WINTER 1983 © 1983 by The University of Chicago Shaping the Eighteenth-Century Criminal Trial: A View from the Ryder Sources John H. Langbeint t Max Pam Professor of American and Foreign Law, University of Chicago. I wish to express my gratitude for the labors of the late K.L. Perrin, the transcriber of the Ryder shorthand sources, who died as I was completing this article. His transcripts made the sources accessible for scholarship. He arranged for the deposit of his personal carbon copies of the transcripts at the University of Chicago Law Library, and over the years from 1975 through 1981.he answered many questions. I deeply regret that I was una- ble to have the benefit of his advice on the text of this article. I also wish to acknowledge the kindness of the Earl of Harrowby in authorizing Mr. Perrin's deposit of the transcripts at Chicago. John Beattie (Toronto) and John Styles (Bath) supplied references that greatly facili- tated my work in the public records. Douglas Hay (Warwick), who first cited the Ryder assize diary in published scholarship, shared his notes with me. Malvin Zirker (Indiana) helped with the sources and literature for Henry Fielding. John Baker (Cambridge), James Cockburn (Maryland), Charles Gray (Chicago), Thomas Green (Michigan), R.H. Hehnholz (Chicago), Joanna Innes (Oxford), Mark Kishlansky (Chicago), A.W.B. Simpson (Kent), and Geoffrey Stone (Chicago) commented on a prepublication draft. Judith Rose (J.D. Chicago 1982) helped locate the illustrations, and she constructed the calendar infra note 29. A num- ber of particular references are acknowledged in the footnotes. Research of this sort is not cheap to conduct, especially from across the Atlantic; I am grateful to Dean Gerhard Casper and the University of Chicago Law School for the financial support that has made the work possible. I wish to direct readers' attention to the three endnotes that appear at the conclusion of this article dealing with (1) the modernization and Americanization of spelling, punctuation, and so forth; (2) the conventions followed by the shorthand transcriber in preparing his transcripts; and (3) acknowledgements for the illustrations reproduced in the article. I am grateful to the editors of the Review for allowing deviations from their customary citation practices in order to facilitate the use of historical sources. The University of Chicago Law Review [50:1 Some of the most fundamental attributes of modern Anglo- American criminal procedure for cases of serious crime emerged in England during the eighteenth century: the law of evidence, the adversary system, the privilege against self-incrimination, and the main ground rules for the relationship of judge and jury.' In trying to understand the great developments of this period, legal histori- ans have been bedeviled by source problems that to some extent must always remain insoluble. The present article is based primar- ily upon a pair of novel historical sources: the notebooks of Sir Dudley Ryder, who served as an Old Bailey trial judge in the 1750s; and a series of pamphlet accounts of Old Bailey trials that we verify by comparing them with the Ryder notes. Our main theme is the influence of the pretrial process upon the development of the rules of trial. The Ryder-period sources give us a window on the institutions and procedures that were be- ing employed to investigate crimes and to gather evidence for these trials. In some respects the ramshackle prosecutorial system of mid-century London worked remarkably well, but it had grievous shortcomings. The concern grew that the system encouraged false witnesses, who found it all too easy to bring about the condemna- tion of innocent men. We think that the relatively sudden rise of the law of evidence and of adversary trial procedure was, at least in part, a response. Part I of this article is devoted to the description and compar- ison of the main sources. Discrepancies between the judge's notes and the pamphlets are identified and analyzed in the light of the different purposes for which the two sources were produced. Part II examines what the sources tell us about the composition of the bench and the allocation of functions within the nominally colle- gial trial judiciary of the Old Bailey. Part III looks at the offenses charged and the outcomes in the cases in our sample. Part IV is devoted to the pretrial procedure of detection and binding over for prosecution, with particular attention to the work of Henry Field- ing, the novelist, and his brother John as principal magistrates for Middlesex in the period just before and during Dudley Ryder's tenure in judicial office. In Part V, we describe the crown witness system, upon which the Middlesex magistracy placed great reli- I I have discussed these points in Langbein, The Criminal Trial before the Lawyers, 45 U. Cm.

In Part VI we discuss the reward system and the celebrated scandal that brought it into disrepute. Part VII is devoted to the trial caseloads and Part VIII to trial procedure and the advent of the adversary system. I. SOURCES Criminal law reporting in the modern sense is basically a nine- teenth-century tradition, and one that reflects the radically altered state of affairs of the lawyer-dominated nineteenth-century trial. For most of the eighteenth century, when lawyers for prosecution and defense were rather peripheral figures, lawyers' literature was not much produced. Five years ago in an article in this journal, I undertook to identify and explain some of the procedural develop- ments of the period from the mid-1670s to the mid-1730s. I based this work mainly on a little-known set of pamphlet sources that contain "probably the best accounts we shall ever have of what transpired in ordinary English criminal courts before the later eighteenth century."s These pamphlets, the Old Bailey Sessions Papers (hereafter OBSP),' chronicle the trials that took place at the sittings ("sessions") of the Old Bailey. The Old Bailey was the trial court for cases of serious crime (felony) committed in the city of London and the adjacent county of Middlesex.' The court sat ' See Wigmore, A General Survey of the History of the Rules of Evidence, in 2 SELEcT ESSAYS IN ANGLO-AmmcAN LEGAL HISTORY 691, 694-96 (Ass'n of Am. Law Schools ed. 1908). 3 Article I, supra note 1, at 271. 4 The proper title as it appears during the Ryder period (with appropriate variations in dates, sessions, pamphlet numbers, and the names of mayors) is, for example, The Proceed- ings on the King's Commissions of the Peace, Oyer and Terminer, and Gaol Delivery for the City of London; and also the Gaol Delivery for the County of Middlesex, Held at Jus- tice-Hall in the Old-Bailey, on Wednesday the 23rd, Thursday the 24th, Friday the 25th, Saturday the 26th, and Monday the 28th of October, in the 27th Year of His Majesty's Reign; Number'VIII for the Year 1754: Being the Eighth Sessions in the Mayoralty of the Right Hon. Thomas Rawlinson, Esq., Lord-Mayor of the City of London (London 1754) [hereafter cited by month and year as OBSP]. For discussion of London mayoral years as dating conventions, see infra text accompanying note 28. 6 A few other courts had nominal capital jurisdiction overlapping the Old Bailey's venue, but this was of no importance. The House of Lords could try peers, and King's Bench could (but virtually never did) try felons "at the bar." The High Court of Admiralty convened "Admiralty sessions" for felonies arising on the high seas and navigable waters. These cases were tried in London by London juries presided over by royal court judges proceeding in accordance with ordinary common law criminal procedure, so that the prac- tice resembled a special sitting of the Old Bailey. During the Ryder years (1754-1756), Ad- miralty handled only a few criminal cases, all of them genuinely maritime and arising well away from London. See Public Record Office, London [hereafter cited as PRO] HCA (High The University of Chicago Law Review [50:1 eight times a year. The OBSP report the outcomes of every trial held in each ses- sions, and they contain supposedly verbatim narratives for most of the trials. Although the OBSP can be immensely revealing, they have shortcomings that considerably impair their usefulness and reliability as a legal historical source. The OBSP were an early spe- cies of periodical journalism, purveying a diet of true-life crime stories for the interest and amusement of a nonlawyer readership. They were sold on the streets of London within days of the trials they reported. In the mid-1750s, the period that we shall be em- phasizing in the present article, the price was four pence a pam- phlet. The OBSP were not meant to serve as legal precedents, al- though we shall see that the legal system of the 1750s found a few uses for them. (Well after our period, however, the OBSP changed character and title. The series became a true law reporter that con- tinued until World War I.) Although the OBSP purport to present verbatim accounts of most of the trials held at each sessions, these narratives have suf- fered much deletion and compression.

  • DATES of TRIALS Until October 1775, and Again from December 1816
    DATES OF TRIALS Until October 1775, and again from December 1816, the printed Proceedings provide both the start and the end dates of each sessions. Until the 1750s, both the Gentleman’s and (especially) the London Magazine scrupulously noted the end dates of sessions, dates of subsequent Recorder’s Reports, and days of execution. From December 1775 to October 1816, I have derived the end dates of each sessions from newspaper accounts of the trials. Trials at the Old Bailey usually began on a Wednesday. And, of course, no trials were held on Sundays. ***** NAMES & ALIASES I have silently corrected obvious misspellings in the Proceedings (as will be apparent to users who hyper-link through to the trial account at the OBPO), particularly where those misspellings are confirmed in supporting documents. I have also regularized spellings where there may be inconsistencies at different appearances points in the OBPO. In instances where I have made a more radical change in the convict’s name, I have provided a documentary reference to justify the more marked discrepancy between the name used here and that which appears in the Proceedings. ***** AGE The printed Proceedings almost invariably provide the age of each Old Bailey convict from December 1790 onwards. From 1791 onwards, the Home Office’s “Criminal Registers” for London and Middlesex (HO 26) do so as well. However, no volumes in this series exist for 1799 and 1800, and those for 1828-33 inclusive (HO 26/35-39) omit the ages of the convicts. I have not comprehensively compared the ages reported in HO 26 with those given in the Proceedings, and it is not impossible that there are discrepancies between the two.

  • The Old Bailey and the Recorder of London: a Brief History
    From our Patron, Simon Callow Last year I received the exceptional honour of the Freedom of the City of London. Since boyhood I have been haunted by the City, its history, its imagery, its traditions. One of the most vital of those traditions is the City's association with music. Since at least 1350, The Worshipful Company of Musicians has proudly celebrated the noble art. I vividly remember a City of London Festival when I was a youth, in which The Yeoman of the Guards was performed with full son et lumière effects at the Tower of London, and Sir William Walton was specially commissioned to write a splendid piece for the City – A Song for the Lord Mayor's Table. Since then the Barbican Concert Hall has opened, and the London Symphony Orchestra has become resident orchestra. Music is everywhere in the City, as it should be. So when last year's Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress, Roger and Clare Gifford, asked me become a Patron of their new charity, the City Music Foundation, I said yes straight away - not only because of the ancient association of the City with music, but because it looks so keenly to the future. Its raison d'être is to help young musicians at that critical difficult early point in their careers, right at the beginning, after their training, when they attempt to launch themselves into the world. The Foundation nurtures, encourages, and supports them at a vulnerable moment in their lives. I know very well what that feels like - young actors face exactly the same problems; sometimes really gifted, exceptional artists fall by the wayside.

  • Implications of Abrogating the Role of the Aldermen As Justices of the Peace
    Committee: Date: 2 December 2016 Courts Sub (Policy and Resources) Committee Subject: Public The City of London and the Magistracy Report of: For Information Remembrancer Report Author: Paul Double Introductory Note 1. The paper annexed responds to a request that a report on the constitutional background to the City‘s relationship with the Magistracy be submitted to this subcommittee. This background is primarily referable to the Aldermen although non Aldermanic magistrates are now in the main responsible for summary justice in the City‘s Magistrates‘ Courts. Experience with the botched exercise of reforming the office of Lord Chancellor demonstrated (if demonstration were needed) that making changes to a constitutional settlement of centuries standing without a detailed analysis of the landscape is likely to be a cause of difficulty. That is not to say, of course, that change should not be entertained; as is well known, the City has only survived by a process of canny evolution and its evolving relationship with the administration of justice is a good example of this process at work. 2. For completeness the paper includes reference to the significant change to the position of Aldermen as magistrates introduced by the Access to Justice Act 1999, and the subsequent Act of Common Council by which the mandatory linkage to the magistracy was ended. It does not, however, deal with the aspect of that Act which related to the position of Lord Mayor as Chief Magistrate. The 1999 Act broke the link between the office of Chief Magistrate and Bench Chairman in the City, a link which had been mistakenly introduced by the Justices of the Peace Act 1968.

  • Sheriffs' & Recorder's Fund
    SHERIFFS’ & RECORDER’S FUND Annual Report 2018-2019 The Fund was established by the Sheriffs of the City of London in 1808 The Sheriffs’ & Recorder’s Fund In 1808 the two Sheriffs of the City of London set up a fund to help prisoners living in appalling conditions in Newgate, and their families. In 1931 the Fund merged with the fund set up by the Recorder to assist offenders released on probation. The Sheriffs’ & Recorder’s Fund still plays a vital part in preventing re-offending. In prison today: • The prison population has risen by 77% in the last 30 years. England & Wales has the highest imprisonment rate in Western Europe. • Assault rates among children in custody average 228 assaults a month. • 43% of prisons received a negative rating from inspectors in 2017-18 for purposeful activity work. In many prisons work remains mundane, repetitive and rarely linked to resettlement objectives. • 54% of those entering prison were assessed as having literacy skills expected of an 11-year-old (general population: 15%). • The number of women in prison has doubled since 1993. On release: • On release prisoners receive £46 – a sum unchanged since 1997 (with inflation, the equivalent today is £82.34). • 50% of respondents to a 2016 YouGov survey said they would not consider employing an offender or ex-offender • 48% of adults are reconvicted within one year of release (64% of those serving sentences of less than 12 months). Working in an office in the Old Bailey provided by the Corporation of London, the Fund gives small grants to ex-prisoners and their families in Greater London to buy essentials: clothes for a job interview, a training course, tools of trade, household equipment.

    Judicial Encounters with Quakers 1660 1688* URING the reigns of Charles II and James II many Quakers were subjected to the rigours of the penal D laws against dissenters and Catholics. As a result, they often looked to the members of the common law judiciary for redress. Unfortunately the "twelve men in scarlet" who manned the courts of King's Bench, Common Pleas and Exchequer were not considered by contemporary observers to be independent arbiters of the law, but rather, were seen as civil servants of the Crown, "stewards of royal power charged with implementing the royal will".2 They had indeed been long utilized by the Crown for political and administrative, as well as legal purposes, and had been discredited by their decisions favouring the royal prerogative in the last years of Charles I's "personal" rule.3 Likewise, by 1688 they had again, for the same reason, found themselves discredited in the eyes of the victorious opposition.4 Although Whig accusations of judicial subservience to the Stuart kings appear influenced far more by partisan politics than by legal appreciation^ the judges throughout most of the reigns of Charles II and James II did hold their patents "during the king's pleasure" and dismissals 1 In this article quotations from manuscripts have been modernized in spelling, punctuation and capitalization.

The phrase ‘economy of makeshifts’ has often been used to summarise the patchy, disparate and sometimes failing 1700–1850 strategies of the poor for material survival. Incomes or benefits derived through the ‘economy’ ranged from wages supported by under-employment via petty crime through to charity; however, An economy of makeshifts until now, discussions of this array of makeshifts usually fall short of answering vital questions about how and when the poor secured access to them.
