OF CHARLES PINNEY, Esq. IN THE COURT OF KING's BENCH, ON AN INFORMATION, FILED BY HIS MAJESTY'S ATTORNEY-GENERAL, CHARGING HIM WITH NEGLECT OF DUTY, IN HIS OFFICE AS MAYOR OF BRISTOL, DURING THE RIOTS. Accurately transcribed from the Short-Hand Report of Mr. GURNEY. BRISTOL: PRINTED BY GUTCH AND MARTIN, SMALL-STREET; AND PUBLISHED BY CADEL, STRAND, LONDON; BLACKWOOD AND CO. EDINBURGH; AND MAY BE MDCCCXXXIII. D. Low 20 Oct. 1943 The following Article appeared in Blackwood's Magazine, for December last, under the title of "TRIAL OF THE BRISTOL MAGISTRATES-REACTION AMONG THE OPERATIVES." 66 Messrs. Gutch and Martin having obtained permission from the Writer of the Article, and the Publisher of the Magazine, to make what use they please of it, in elucidation of the Volume they have already published, under the title of—" THE BRISTOL RIOTS, THEIR CAUSES, PROGRESS, AND CONSEQUENCES," cannot more appropriately avail themselves of this act of kindness and liberality, than by inserting it entire, as a PREFACE to the present Volume, containing the Trial of the late Mayor, upon which trial, the events that preceded it, and those which have since occurred in Bristol during the progress of the late Election, it forms so valuable and judicious a commentary.
