Excerpt from Selection of Cases Illustrative of English Criminal Law The compilation of the book would have been impossible but for the permission which the Incorporated Council of Law Reporting generously conceded to me, to make use of their Reports; a permission for which my most cordial thanks are clue. I must also thank the proprietors of the copyright of Mr Cox's Criminal Law Reports, for allowing me to take several cases from their series. To my friend and former pupil, Mr W. C. A. Landon, of Gray's Inn, I am indebted for assiduous assistance in preparing the volume and carrying it through the press. And to the kindness of Professor Maitland I owe the admirable English rendering in which the cases cited here from the Year Books - except one or two added by myself after he had gone abroad - are made acceptable to modern eyes.
