 LAW plishing the objects of equitable remedies, it would be ungenerous not to say that the range of information which it demonstrates, is such as may well put the law students of this country to the blush." Professor Park, in alluding to it, remarks : " Although I must differ from its main conclusions, it is a work of that learning, and research, and information, as but {ew members of the English bar, perhaps, could have produced. A copy of this Essay I some time since presented, through Prof. Amos, to the Law Class of the London University, as an example of what may be attained, even in early life, by successful application." Death early terminated the career of of its author, who gave so much promise of use- fulness. See Fonblanque's Equity. Hoff. Leg. Stu. 405 ; 4 U. S. Lit. Gaz. 201 ; 6 A.

" The many quibbles and evasions, of late introduced in the practice of the law, are sufficient to influence any one of the Profession (espe- cially a person who has suffered by them), to undertake a treatise that may expose such artifices, and give the world a necessary caution against them ; and this being a topick which is wholly new, and of great impor- tance, all sorts of persons are in some degree interested therein."
