Mcesrs. LITTLE & Bows think you have laid
the profession under great obligations, in the re-
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 TO fur
nish their libraries with the current English Re-
ports, OF which many Of them have heretofore been
deprived They will thus have a ready access to
the decisions of courts sitting at ths 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 systcms may
be- ii is manifest that thcse 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 IMMEpIATELy ArTsR
