London. 1839-44. These volumes are composed of Precedents drawn by eminent Con- veyancers, and are those in general use at the present time. The Pre- cedents are arranged under appropriate alphabetical titles, accompanying which are exceedingly valuable and carefully prepared dissertations and notes.

The 3d ed., now in preparation, will, when completed, contain additional Pre- cedents, to be comprised in three more volumes. CiESAR, SIR JUXiIUS.
