CAM CAMPBELL, SIR J. Compilation of the Forms of Process in the Court of Session, during the earlier periods after its estab- lishment, with the Variations which they have since undergone, &c. 8vo. Edinburgh. 1809. CAMPBELL, J. D. and S. CAMBRELENG. A Digested Index of all the Reported Decisions in Equity, in the U. S. Courts, and in the Courts of the several States. 8vo. New York. 1828. The second edition of this Digested Index, was edited by J. D. Wheeler, who added a second volume. 2 vols., 8vo., New York, 1841. CAMPBELL, PETER. The Forms of Procedure in a Process of Cessio Bonorum, as regulated by the Act VI. and VII., Gull. IV. c. Ivi., and the Acts of Sederunt ; with a Summary of the Reported Decisions, Appendix of Forms, and an Index. 2d ed. 12mo. Edinburgh. 1837. " The Treatise of Mr. Campbell is particularly valuable for the Eng- lish decisions under the Insolvent Debtor's Act, to which our Cessio Act bears strong analogy. In the second edition there is a great deal of additional valuable matter which will materially aid in removing the difficulties that have occurred in practice. 2 Edinb. Law Journal, 526. ■ . Letter to Hon. R. Peel, with objections to the System of Administering Justice in Scotland. 8vo. Edinburgh. 1830. CAMPBELL, JOHN. Reports of Cases Determined at Nisi Prius, in the Courts of K. B. and C. P. and on the Home Cir- cuit, from Mich. Term, 48 Geo. III. 1807, to Hil. Term, 56 Geo. IIL 1816. 4 vols, royal 8vo. London. 1809-16. " It is utterly impossible for any judge, whatever his learning and abilities may be, to decide at once rightly upon every point which comes before him at Nisi Prius ; and whoever looks through Campbell's Re- ports, will be greatly surprised to see among such an immense number of questions, many of them of the most important kind, which came before that noble and learned judge, not that there are mistakes but that he is in by far the most of the causes so wonderfully right, beyond the proportion of any other judges." Campbell is equal to Espinasse as a reporter and his volumes may be regarded as a continuation of Espi- nasse's Reports. In the last two volumes of the American reprint of Campbell's Re- ports (4 vols., 8vo., New York, 1810-21,) will be found notes of American decisions and authorities, ably prepared by Samuel Howe. 5 Taunton, 196. 172
