London: [Printed by W. Clowes and Sons], 1861. 37 pp. Octavo (8-1/4" x 5"). Stab-stitched pamphlet tipped into recent wrappers, edges speckled red.

Dixon, an English writer and non-practicing barrister, wrote several historical works on Bacon based on previously unpublished papers as an alternative to Campbell's famous Life of Bacon, of which he was critical. Our title is a sympathetic account of Bacon's trial for corruption and the subsequent end of his career in public service. The phrase "Proof-Private" appears in type on the title page, and the work may have been incorporated into Dixon's 1862 The Story of Lord Bacon's Life.
