Excerpt from Year Books of Edward II, Vol. 2: 2& 3 Edward II, A. D. 1308-9 and 1309-10 The present volume being issued under the conditions stated in the Prefatory Note, want Of time and want of space forbid me from entering on that account Of the numerous manuscripts which I had hoped to prefix to the second instalment Of the Year Books Of Edward II. The delay is not altogether to be regretted, for what has to be said about this matter, and especially about duplicate and triplicate reports, will be the more intelligible if reference can already be made to three volumes Of examples which will be in the hands Of members Of the Society. To this may be added that every year's work upon the manuscripts may bring us a little nearer towards the solution Of some intricate problems. This having been premised, advantage will be taken of the pre sent opportunity for the making of a few miscellaneous remarks which should be made sooner or later. As regards the beginnings Of law reporting, we can now add a little to what was said last year. It will be remembered that those reports Of Edward I.'s day which Mr. Horwood edited in the Rolls Series take us back to the twentieth year Of the reign It will be remem bered, also, that he told1 Of the existence Of apparently Older, but not expressly dated, reports which he did not edit. Last year we Observed that Fitzherbert in his Abridgement refers to a good many cases Of the thirteenth year (1284 A closer examination Of his work enables us to speak more positively about the materials that were in his hands. He had reports Of a Cornish eyre Of a.r. 30, and a series Of expressly dated reports beginning with the Easter Term Of a.r. 81 and extending, though perhaps with some gaps, from that point until the end Of the reign, which occurred in A. R. 85. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ... This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
