Candor’s first letter had originally appeared in The Public Advertiser, and there formed one of a whole class of political compositions, which, in the next few years, were to take the foremost place in controversy.
Their existence was due to the shrewd enterprise of the printer Henry Sampson Woodfall, who had edited The Public Advertiser since 1758.
In addition to trustworthy news of events at home and abroad, Woodfall opened his columsn to correspondence, the greater part of which was political.

In the case of Woodfall, the chief offender, Lord Mansfield clearly aid down the doctrine that the libelous character of the article complained of was a question for the judge, and not for the jury.
In the existing temper of London juries, the retrial of Woodfall promised only discomfiture to the government, and the case was abandoned.
The doctrine of libel laid down by Mansfield in the Woodfall case, was that of a long succession of eminent judges.

I have ascertained that the statement in Hutchins corresponds with the entry in the register of Blandford St. Mary, of the burial of Henry Chettle in 1616; and that there is _no_ entry of the baptism of any one of that name.
And if the conjecture of the learned editor be correct, as probably it is, that the poet, Henry Chettle, "died in or before the year 1607," it is equally clear that he was a _third_ of the same name, and that he could not be the person whose name occurs as buried in 1616.
_The_ Woodfall, the printer, is understood to have been Henry Woodfall, afterwards "Woodfall without Temple Bar," grandfather of Henry Sampson, the printer of _Junius' Letters_, and great-great-grandfather of the present excellent printer of the same name.
