Philadelphia. 1812. CRIPPS, HENRY W. A Practical Treatise on the Laws relating to the Church and the Clergy. 8vo. London. 1845. "■ Mr. Cripps has taken the happy via media between too copious and elaborate a Codex of Church law on the one side, and a vade mecum of it, in a too abstract and narrow consideration on the other. The arrange- ment of the book is clear and methodical, and it contains a judicious analysis of the leading ecclesiastical decisions." 3 L. M. N. S. 151. CRISP, J. The Conveyancer's Guide, or Law Student's Recrea- tion ; a Poem. With Notes and numerous Additions. 3d ed. 12mo. London. 1835. The author proposes to teach, in Hudibrastic verse, the principles of Conveyancing in an amusing manner. It is a work that will richly repay a perusal, not only for the anecdote and history that it contains, but for the comicality of the comparisons and illustrations. The author insists, in a well written preface, that poetry is the original lan- guage of the law, and he has shown by the most irrefragable proof that a naturally grave subject may be made to appear to considerable advan- tage in a merry mood.
