Messrs. LITTLE & BRows- Gentlemen. BY your
publication Of the English Law and Equity Re
ports, think an important benefit IL conferred on
the legal profession in this country. The fidelity
with which these Reports appear 20 have been thus
far made, their compact and convenient arrange
ment, their early publication, bringing down the
decisions OF all the important Courts TO a period
far within those OF any Court in our own coun.
try, together with their chcopnoss, ought to be
sufficient recommendations to insure their general
use.
