But the Author has not scrupled to amend where necessary. In some cases the law has been modified by recent decisions. In these cases the text has been altered in accordance with the altered state of the law. In making these amendments and alterations, and in the preparation of these Lectures for the press, the Author has received valuable assistance from his son, Mr. T. CYPRIAN WILLIAMS, of Lincoln's Inn, barrister-at-law, to whom also he is indebted for the Index. 7, STONE BUILDINGS, LINCOLN'S INN, 7th February, 1880. |
