When Korthampton and Leicester were BeTered from the Midland circuit and added to the Norfolk eircnit in 1863, Mr. Care contintied to go the Midland circxnt, which was increaaed by the addition of Yorkriiire ; but when, in 1875, Yorkshire was taken from the Mid- land circuit, to form with North- nmberland and Durham the new North-Bastem eircnit, Mr. Care, together with his contemporaries, Mr. Fitsjames Stephen, Q.C., and Mr. Alfred Wills, Q.C., elected to leaTB the Midland and join the new circuit. Mr. Cave was ap- pointed a rerising baxrister in IHGb, and held the office until he obtained a silk gown in 1875. In 1873 he was appointed Becorder of Lincoln. Mr. Cave was elected a Bencher of his Inn in 1877, and in the siyne jear was made a Com- missioner of Assize for the autumn eircnit. In 1880 he was appointed, together with Mr. Hugh Cowie, Re<WTder of Maldon and Saffron Walden, and Mr. Edward Bidley, formerly M.P. for South North- umberland, a Commissioner to in- quire into the existence of corrupt practices at Parliamentary elec- tions at Oxford. In March, 1881, Mr. Cave was appointed one of the Justices of the High Court, and in April received the honour of knight- hood, along with Mr. Justice Ma- thew. Mr. Justice Cave has edited several law books. From 1861 to 1865, in conjunction with the Hon. E. Chandoe Leigh, Q.C., he edited the reports of the Court for the Consideration of Crown Cases Be- served. In 1861 Mr. Cave, in conjunction with Mr. BeU, edited the seventh edition of Stone's "Practice of Petty Sessions." In 1869 he edited the sixth edition, and in 1875 the seventh edition of Addison's " Treatise on the Law of Contracts/' and in 1879 he edited the fifth 9diti<m of the «uue author's

"Law of Torts." While at the bar Mr. Justice Cave had the re- putation of being a sound lawyer rather than a brilliant advocate ; and although he had a large and varied business in his circuit, his name will not be found connected with any of the sensational cases of his time.
