A Melbourne paper, commenting on the fact that 1 Mr Justice Barry is sensitive to gentlemen of the bar table without wig or gownj says: — "Judges, ;howerer, like doctors, differ. The following is from the law report of the . Argus of the 19th February, 1856 : — " Upon his Honor taking his scat, addressing the bar, he observed that upon a day like the present it was well to observe that wigs and gowns were made for men and not men for wigs. He intended to dispense with his own, and any of the learned counsel were at liberty to do the same with theirs. At the same time he did not wish to , interfere with the liberty of the subject, if, as one learned counsel suggested, it was more convenient to wear the wig. His Hbnor at once set the example of common sense and comfort, and dispensed with hia headdress for the remainder of the day." The learned judge was the late Chief Justice : A'Beckett.
