THE GROUSE SEASON
Gunmen may consider the title of this snipit to be
a pointer to some activity in the off season, how
ever, the contrary is quite the case. The bag we
are concerned with is a mail bag which contains
a random sample of the correspondence conducted
by the Society between January 26th 1968 and
February 22nd 1968. The period covered includes
twenty working days during which the Society
received 40 original complaints about the conduct
of solicitors and during which the Society wrote
264 letters arising therefrom and from other un
satisfied complainants as at 22nd February 1968.
The figures quoted relate solely to complaints and
do not include letters of enquiry which might later
give rise to a formal complaint being lodged. The
figure does not take into account the number of
personal complainants who are interviewed in the
Society's Office or the number of complaints made
to the Society on the telephone. Complaints come
