An excellent work." The Times.

"A publication which has long ago secured to itself the favour of the profession, aud which, as heretofore, justifies by its contents the title assumed by it."-Law Journal. "Contains all the information which could be looked for in such a work, and gives it in a most convenient form and very completely. We may unhesitatingly recommend the work to our readers."- Solicitors' Journal.

"The Lawyer's Companion and Diary' is a book that ought to be in the possession of every lawyer, and of every man of business."

"The Lawyer's Companion' is, indeed, what it is called, for it combines everything required for reference in the lawyer's office."-Law Times.

"It is a book without which no lawyer's library or office can be complete.”—Irish Law Times.

"This work has attained to a completeness which is beyond all praise."-Morning Post. DICTIONARY.-Wharton's Law Lexicon.-A Dictionary of

Jurisprudence, explaining the Technical Words and Phrases employed
in the several Departments of English Law; including the various
Legal Terms used in Commercial Transactions. Together with an
Explanatory as well as Literal Translation of the Latin Maxims

Judicature Acts, by J. SHIRESS WILL, of the Middle Temple,
Esq., Barrister-at-Law. Super royal 8vo. 1876.
21. 28.

"As a work of reference for the library, the handsome and elaborate edition of 'Wharton's Law Lexicon' which Mr. Shiress Will has produced must supersede all torne issues of that well-known work."- Law Magazine and Review.

"No law library is complete without a law dictionary or law lexicon. To the practitioner it is always useful to have at hand a book where, in a small compass, he can find an explanation of terms of infrequent occurrence, or obtain a reference to statutes on most subjects, or to books wherein particular subjects are treated of at full length. To the student it is almost indispensable."- Law Times.

** Vol. II., Parts 1 and 2, separately, price each 17. 10s. "The Editors of this new edition of Seton deserve much praise for what is almost, if not absolutely, an innovation in law books. In treating of any division of their subject they have put prominently forward the result of the latest decisions, settling the law so far as it is ascertained, thus avoiding much useless reference to older cases. There can be no doubt that in a book of practice like Seton, it is much more important to be able to see at once what the law is than to know how it has become what it is; and the Editors have evidently taken great pains to carry out this principle in presenting the law on each division of their labours to their readers."-The Times. "Of all the editions of 'Seton' this is the best. We can hardly speak too highly of the industry and intelligence which have been bestowed on the preparation of the notes."-Solicitors' Journal,

"Now the book is before us complete; and we advisedly say complete, because it has scarcely ever been our fortune to see a more complete law book than this. Extensive in sphere, and exhaustive in treatise, comprehensive in matter, yet apposite in details, it presents all the features of an excellent work The index, extending over 278 pages, is a model of comprehensiveness and accuracy."-Law Journal.
