By GEORGE Ross, Esq., Advocate.

"We have not for many years seen a more useful work."-Times. "Those who have been in the habit of consulting this work, know how to appreciate the solid and varied information it contains.

We can safely assert that the volume before us will not disappoint the expectations that have been founded on the success that has attended Mr Ross's carlier labours. Mr Ross has very judiciously retained the greater portion of what was original in the former edition, and at the same time, has carefully digested the multifarious additions and innovations introduced by the more recent statute and case law."—Journal of Jurisprudence.

and popular style, which have made ERSKINE'S PRINCIPLES' the most popular
of our legal classics."—Journal of Jurisprudence.
