The article was prepared for publication at the suggestion of the secretary of the committee on Legal Ethics of the American Bar Association as a result of the author's response to the committee's request for criti cisms. Mr. Boston is junior member of the firm of Hornblower, Miller and Potter of New York City. Our readers are already familiar with the work of PROF. EDWIN MAXEY, now of the Law School of the University of Nebraska, who is a frequent contributor to current legal periodicals. HARRY RANDOLPH BLYTHE is a graduate of Dartmouth and at present a student in the Harvard Law School, where he still finds time to indulge his taste for literary work. . HON. HIRAM D.
