"I knew Lord Swinton asmuch as a youth can know an old man and I have always been intimate with his family. He is avery excellent person; dull, mild, solid and plodding; and in his person large and heavy. It isonly a subsequent age that has discovered his having possessed a degree of sagacity, forwhich he did not get credit while he lived. So far back as 1765 he published an attack onour system of entails; in 1779 he explained a scheme for a uniform standard of weighsand measures;and in 1789 he put forth considerations in favour of dividing the Court ofSessions into more courts than one, and of introducing juries for the trial of civil causes. Allthese improvements have since taken place, but they were mere visions in his time; andhis anticipation of them, in which so far as I ever heard, he had no associate, is veryhonourable to his thoughtfulness and judgement. Not withstanding the utter dissimilarity of thetwo men, there was a great friendship between John and Henry Erskine, which it is to thehonour of Swinton's ponderous placidity that Erskine's endless jokes upon him never disturbed (n).List of Publications (d)(f)There is a Chippendale Bookcase in theBritish Museum that belonged to him (a1)SWEETON, John WLR F Scotland ?
