Notes: "The volume known as 'Yates select cases' (the outside usually bears the title 'Select cases' alone) contains only two cases, one of which, that of J.V.N. Yates, is reprinted in 4 John. 317; the other, the case of the Journeymen cordwainers, is reprinted in 2 Wheel. 262, under title of The People v. Melvin et al. It would seem to belong under the head of trials rather than of reports."--Soule, Lawyers reference manual.
