WAsHiNGroN, January 26, 1852.
Messrs. LITTLE & BaowN: think you have laid
the profession under great Obligations in the re-
publication Of the "Engish Reports in Law and
Equity in this country.
The low price at which the volumes are 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 the fountain
head of the law, whence have been derived for the
most part, the several systems, more or less modi
fled, 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 IMMEDiATELy AFTER
THE PUBLICATIONS IN ENGLAND A CoNsipERA TON
OF TIE FIRST IMpoRTANcE; for, if the Reports of
cases decided arc of any value, the sooner they
are in the hands of the profession the better. ]
sincerely hope your encouragement from the bar
will be commensurate with the merit of the enter
prise.
