    Original Textured Blue Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Volume one only. First edition, xiii, 496pp, photographic frontispiece portrait with tissue, pages clean, dark endpapers, original textured blue cloth with gilt spine lettering and gilt crest to upper board, spine a little darkened. Includes a short letter in ink from the author to J D Claughton, Bishop of Rochester, dated Oct 3/72 (1872) addressed "My dearest friend, You are almost the only man from whom I can take the most hypocritical expressions of friendship as meaning, very nearly, ehat they say. I wish I were more worthy of them ; - pray, that I may be made so." Roundell Palmer, 1st earl of Selborne, (born Nov. 27, 1812, Mixbury, Oxfordshire, England, died May 4, 1895, near Petersfield, Hampshire), British lord high chancellor (1872-74, 1880-85) who almost singlehandedly drafted a comprehensive judicial-reform measure, the Supreme Court of Judicature Act of 1873. Under this statute, the complex duality of English court systems common law and chancery (equity) was largely abolished in favour of a single hierarchy of courts. All divisions of the new supreme court were empowered to apply equitable as well as common-law remedies, with the principles of equity prevailing in the event of conflict. Size: 8vo. Biographical.
