WASUBURN's SUPPLEMENT
AIKEN'S FORMS.

Adapting that work the present of the Statutes Of
Vermont. BY PETER T. WASIlBURN,
Counsellor at Law.
IT rising twenty-five since tho first edition OF
Judge Aikens Practical Forms made its appeu and
durng that extended period it hus answered for the people
all the purposes Of three four separate and independent
works For instance in the State Of New Gmpshife there
are three honks entitled "Tuwn OicGrn Probate Dreo
tory ,, and Justice aud Sheriff. all ofwhich in requi
son supply the plco occupied by the Practical Forms in
Vermont, and the aggregate Of the three works above
alluded about three times tho cost of the Practical
Forms. Besides the latter work article
voyanco real in the several States occupying about
60 very compact pages, embracing, in quantity, matter enough
fill 100 pages of law book type, which hs
found elsewhere mt perhaps of less than twice
the osad work. aud which is not to be found in either
the three volumes above alluded to Thus by condensng
and arranging II volume, what in other States has
been expanded three Volumes of equal cost eac the
work of gc Akcns has saved the people of Vermont dur
ing that PERIOD several thousand dollars and has thu
time daily efe cnce than if it had
formed three distinct volumes. We know OF book for
little in PROPORTION to the amount of matter it contains
And there few works the compilation of which
qufcd greater amount OF labor hun Judge Akcn's Forms
We these facts aOrdng just grounds for the pop
nay of the work in question: and for its claims for contn
ued support.
The Suppomcnt to Aikens Forms has been got up with
great and expense by gentleman peculiarly well quail
icl for the undertaking. 1t embraces all the changes in tho
laws of Vermont down the present time, and it IL conf
IDENTITY believed that will supply every deficiency of the
Practical Forms which have accrued from the late Revslon
aud SUBSEQUENT alterations of those Laws.
