     Horace Walpole commented on his "forty years of servility which even in this age makes him a proverb," and also wrote that he "had a lisp and a tedious precision that prejudiced me against him, yet he did not want a sort of vivacity."1 The 1st Lord Holland wrote, "Lord B., a frivolous little minded man is not honester or abler than his predecessor [as Chancellor of the Exchequer, Henry Bilson Legge], he will do well in this now (that there is another ehad to the Treasury, and another head of the House of Commons) insignificant employment. In his last year he pleased nobody. He has no regard to truth, but perhaps by what are not so material faults, being trifling, tedious, and circumstantial, he was very disagreeable to King, General and Minister."1 He has an extensive biographical entry in the Dictionary of National Biography.2
