Principia cum Juris universalis tum praecipue Anglicani. 2 vols. 12mo. London. 1779. The first volume was translated into English by the author, and is a crude and immature production. Tliat part of the work which compre- hends the elements, is built upon Blackstone's Commentaries, of which a liberal use has been made, though he appears rather awkward in his Latin dress. 61 Month.
