Mr. Baron Bramwell, the New Judge, Court of Exchequer, from a sketch taken in court, 1856. 'As Sir George Bramwell could hardly have been much above twenty-four or twenty-five years old when he was called to the bar in 1838 he must be, as he looks, in the prime of life. His figure is tall and slight, but he is strongly built and full of vigour....there is no doubt that [he] will justify the expectations which have been formed of his future career as a Judge...He has also been not less distinguished as a law reformer than as a lawyer. He was an active member of the commission to inquire into the best means for simplifying the procedure of the Common Law Courts; and to him...the country owes the present comparatively simple and inexpensive process in actions at law, which has caused the Courts at Westminster to enter into formidable competition with the County Courts...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
