"A Letter to Sir Samuel Shepherd, Knt., His Majesty's Attorney General: Upon the Subject of His Prosecutions of Richard Carlile, for Publishing Paine's Age of Reason" by anonymous Sir Samuel Shepherd was a British barrister, judge and politician who served as Attorney General for England and Wales and Lord Chief Baron of the Scottish Court of Exchequer. While a judge, he prosecuted Richard Carlile who was an important agitator for the establishment of universal suffrage and freedom of the press in the United Kingdom. Carlile was prosecuted for blasphemy, blasphemous libel and sedition for publishing material that might encourage people to hate the government in his newspaper, and the trial caused an uproar among his supporters and opposition.
