He entered Middle Temple in 1747 and was called to the Bar in 1753; he is said then to have spent some years in the West Indies.〔Ball p.167〕 Returning to Ireland he went on the Connacht circuit, where sat as an extra judge of assize; he became King's Counsel in 1767 and Prime Serjeant in 1782.〔Ball p.220〕
