The author has evidently not been sparing of labour, and the fruits of his exertions are now before the legal profession in a work of great practical utility."-Law Magazine, February, 1878. success. "To those concerned in getting up companies, the assistance given by Mr. Palmer must be very valuable, because he does not confine himself to bare precedents, but by intelligent and learned commentary lights up, as it were, each step that he takes. The volume before us is not, therefore a book of precedents merely, but, in a greater or less degree, a treatise on certain portions of the Companies' Acts of 1862 and 1867. There is an elaborate index, and the work is one which must commend itself to the profession.”— Law Times, June 9, 1877. "The precedents are as a rule exceedingly well drafted, and adapted to companies for almost every conceivable object. So especially are the forms of memoranda and articles of association; and these will be found extremely serviceable to the conveyancer. All the notes have been elaborated with a thoroughly scientific knowledge of the principles of company law, as well as with copious references to the cases substantiating the principles. We venture to predict that his notes will be found of great utility guiding opinions on many complicated questions of law and practice."-Law Journal.

We may also be allowed to add our tribute of praise to these Precedents for their conciseness, perspicuity, precision, and perfection of drafting."-Law Journal. "The volumes are now something more than a mere collection of precedents; they contain most valuable dissertations on the law and practice with reference to conveyancing. These dissertations are followed by the precedents on each subject dealt with, and are in themselves condensed treatises, embodying all the latest case and statute law. We may instance, as excellent specimens of legal essay writing, the dissertations on trustees and husband and wife in the second volume, and on conditions of sale in the first. Having regard to the wide general knowledge required of all lawyers in the present day, such a work as this must prove highly acceptable to the whole Profession."-Law Times, January 4, 1879.

This work also contains a very complete treatise on the Law of Evidence in Crimina Cases, and in it the manner of taking the depositions of witnesses, and the examinations of prisoners before magistrates, is fully explained. What better Digest of Criminal Law could we possibly hope for than 'Russell on Crimes?"-Sir James Fitzjames Stephen's Speech on Codification. "We may safely assert that the fifth edition of 'Russell on Crimes' has, under the careful hand of Mr. Prentice, fully reached the standard attained to by the preceding editions."-Law Journal, January 27, 1877.
