PLE PIKE, ALBERT. The Arkansas Form Book, for the Use of Jus- tices of the Peace, Constables, SherifTs, and Conveyancers ; together with a Summary of the Principles of Law most likely to be useful to Justices of the Peace, and to Citizens in every department. 8vo. Little Rock. 1845. . Reports of Cases argued and determined in the Supreme Court of the State of Arkansas, in Law and Equity. 5 vols. Svo. Little Rock. 1840-45. "Although many of the Cases reported refer only to the construction of the Statutes of the State; there are yet many able and learned opi- nions, on legal questions of a general nature, which are of importance to the Profession, beyond the limits of the State. Judge Lacy's deci- sions, in particular, are distinguished in a more than ordinary degree for eloquence and learning." The reporter has very creditably discharged his onerous duty. The typographical errors in these volumes are some- what numerous, which is a crying evil with respect to Reports in seve- ral of the new States. 1 S. West. L. J. 7, 166. PIRATES.
