"The amount of information packed within the covers of this well-known book of reference is almost incredible. In addition to the Diary, it contains nearly 800 pages of closely printed matter, none of which could be omitted without, perhaps, detracting from the usefulness of the book. The publishers seem to have made it their aim to include in the Companion every item of information which the most exacting lawyer could reasonably expect to find in its pages, and it may safely be said that no practising solicitor, who has experienced the luxury of having it at his elbow, will ever be likely to try to do without it.”— Law Journal.

PLAN OF THE WORK.

It is intended in this Work to collect and arrange in alphabetical order of subjects all the useful authorities of English Case Law from the earliest period to the present time on points of general application.

The matter under each alphabetical heading is arranged in sections, in an order indicated at the commencement of the heading. The more important and Ruling Cases are set forth at length, subject only to abridgment where the original report is unnecessarily diffuse. The effect of the less important or subordinate cases is stated briefly in the Notes.

The aim of the Work is to furnish the practitioner with English Case Law in such a form that he will readily find the information he requires for ordinary purposes. The Ruling Case will inform him, or refresh his memory, as to the principles; and the Notes will show in detail how the principles have been applied or modified in other cases.

It is estimated that the Work will be completed in 25 Volumes.

"One of the most ambitious, and ought to be, when it is complete, one of the most generally useful legal works which the present century has produced."

Literature.

"A perfect storehouse of the principles established and illustrated by our case law and that of the United States."-Law Times.

"The general scheme appears to be excellent, and its execution reflects the greatest credit on everybody concerned. It may, indeed, be said to constitute, for the present, the high-water mark of the science of book-making."-Sat. Rev. "A Cyclopedia of law. . . . most ably executed, learned, accurate, clear, concise; but perhaps its chief merit is that it impresses on us what the practising English lawyer is too apt to forget-that English law really is a body of principles."-The British Review.

Dale and Lehmann's Digest of Cases, Overruled, Not Followed, Disapproved, Approved, Distinguished, Commented on and specially considered in the English Courts from the Year 1756 to 1886 inclusive, and a complete Index of the Cases, in which are included all Cases reversed from the year 1856.
