THE MISSISSIPPI JUSTICE, AND
CONSTABLE'S, GUIDE.
THE scarcity of the Revised Code and
Sheet acts Of the Legislature, and
the difficulty with which the Justices and
Conslables ofthis State supply themselves,
and the great want Of such work, as a
Justice Of the Peace on my own part, has
induced me TO offer to the Justices and Con-
stables of this State digest ofall the Laws
in force, in relation to their duties &C., to-
gether with q complete set Of forms Of
Deeds, Wills, Bonds, Acknowledged Of
Dover, and other instruments.
To place such work into the hands of
our Justices and Constables would save
much trouble and time to the Officer for
whom the work is intended. As the law now
stands il is with the utmost difficulty to be
uscertained whether u written law is in
force or not, which often misead us.
The work will be Published in one Du-
odecimo Volume, law binding. comprising
from two hundred and fifty to three hun
dred pages, with digcsted index OF the
contents, giving condensed statement of
all it conlans.--The work will be ready
for delivery The Isl ofMarch, 1889.
Terms made known on delivery.
