Sir Charles Manners-Sutton, afterwards Viscount Canterbury - Speaker from 1817 to 1835, (1895). 'The Speakers of the Century. Since the beginning of the century there have been seven Speakers of the House of Commons, five of whom have occupied this exalted office during the Queen's reign. [The Right hon. Charles Abbot] was succeeded in the Speakership by Mr. Manners-Sutton, who had been Judge-Advocate-General during Mr. Perceval's Administration. It was during his years of office that the Houses of Parliament were destroyed by fire in 1834. Under the title of Viscount Canterbury, he enjoyed otium cum dignitate [leisure with dignity] for ten years'. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
