Reports of cases, upon appeals and writs of error, in the High Court of Parliament ; from the year 1701, to the year 1779. With tables, notes and references. By Josiah Brown, Esq. Barrister at law
The grounds and rudiments of law and equity, alphabetically digested: containing a collection of rules or maxims, with the doctrine upon them, illustrated by various cases extracted from the books and records, to evince that these principles have been the foundation upon which the judges and sages of the law have built their solemn resolutions and determinations
The whole designed to reduce the knowledge of the laws of England to a more regular science, and to form them into a proper digest for the service of the nobility, clergy, gentlemen in the commission of the peace, and private gentlemen, as well as the professors and students of the law. With three tables. First, of the rudiments and grounds. Second, of the new cases. Third, of principal matters.
A general abridgment of cases in equity, argued and adjudged in the High court of chancery, &c. [1667-1744] With several cases never before published, alphabetically digested under proper titles; with notes and references to the whole. And three tables, the first of the names of the cases, the second of the several titles, with their divisions and subdivisions; and the third, of the matter under general heads
