Mcssrs LITTLE BRowN: l think you have laid
the profession under great obligations, in the
publication Of the "English Reports in Law and
Equity" in this country.
The low price at which the volumes offered,
will enable the bar generally in this way 10 fur
nish their libraries with the current English Re-
porte, of which many Of them have heretofore been
deprived. They will thus have ready access to
the decisions OF courts sitting at the fountain
head Of the law, whence have been derived for the
most part, the several systems, or less modi-
fed, daily administered by the courts of this coun-
try. And. however modified these systems may
be, it is manifest that these decisions must shed
great light upon the investigation Of most Of the
cases arising here.
Your plan, also, will furnish the profession in
this country with the cases IMmEpIArELy AFTER
THE PUBLICATION IN EseLASp, a cosspERArIos
OF THE FIRST IMPORTANCE; for, IL the Reports Of
cases decided arc of any value, the sooner they
are in the hands Of the profession the better. I
sincerely hope your encouragement from the bar
will be commensurate with the merit Of the enter
prise.
am, with great respect, your obediont servant,
