Reports of Cases argued and determined in the King's Bench and Chancery, during the time in which Lord Hardwicke presided in those Courts, collected from a MS. never before printed. To which are added Notes and References, by William Ridgeway. Bvo. London. 1794. Anonymous Reports are ordinarily received with caution, uixder which disadvantage the present volume appears. The great learning and repu- tation of Lord Hardwicke, both as a common law and equity judge, induced several members of the bar (most of whose names are unknown) to take notes of his decisions. I am old enough," says Lord Kenyon, "to remember that great judge, though but for a short time, before he left the Court of Chancery ; and the knowledge of those, who lived before me, only fortified me in the opinion I formed of him, that his knowledge of the law was most extraordinary ; he had been trained up very early in the pursuit, he had great industry and abilities, and was, in short, a consummate master of the profession." 1 Turn. & R. 101 ; 3 T.
