Notes
"Now carefuly translated, with the addition of many thousand references: particularly to such statutes as have altered or amended the law to this time ... by a Gentleman of the Middle-Temple.
"There are actually very few Exchequer cases among them, and they would come more appropriately, perhaps, under the head of King's bench reports. The book is more like an abridgement than like an ordinary volume of reports, most of the cases being taken from other reporters. The word centuries is not used here in its chronological meaning, but indicates that the cases are grouped by hundreds." cf. Soule. Lawyer's ref. manual, 1884.
