Excerpt from A Collection of the Judgments of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council N ow such a Court may have assumed its distinctive form in virtue of the original contract according to which the rela tions of Church and State were settled, either in their first union or after some momentous political or ecclesiastical revolution: or it may have grown to its existing development in the course of years through changes sanctioned by the distinct legislation or the acquiescence of the two contracting bodies. The opinion is widely spread, that, when the power of the Crown as exercised through the Court of Delegates was trans ferred, first to the Privy Council in 1832, and, secondly, to the Judicial Committee of that body in 1833, amid the variety of causes, testamentary and the like, coming before that Court.

Excerpt from Judgments of the Privy Council on Appeals From India, Vol. 3 The decisions of the Judicial Committee of Her Majesty's Privy Council, in cases heard on appeal from the Courts of British India, are at present in a great measure unknown to and beyond the reach of a great majority of the Judges of our Courts. From the year 1836 regular reports of the decisions on Indian Appeals have been published by Mr. Moore. But the earlier volumes of this series are not to be procured without great difficulty (the first volume alone, I believe, not being procurable for even Rs. While the high price of all of them is an obstacle to their wide circulation. In 1855 the Privy Council first began to print their Indian. Judgments, and I have been furnished with the whole series of these printed judgments from that time to the presents I have also been furnished with the earlier judgments commencing from 1831 to 1834, as published in what is known as the Folio Edition of the Privy Council Cases, a still more inaccessible work than Moore's Reports. From these materials I propose to reprint the whole of the judgments in a single volume, with carefully prepared marginal notes, and a copious Index, so that, in a convenient form for reference, the judgments of the highest tribunal will be brought within reach of every local Court. By the Folio Edition of the Privy Council Cases above referred to, were meant the printed cases in appeals which were bound up together with the judgments. A complete set of these was kept up in the Library of the late Sudder Court at Calcutta. I may also here mention that previous to Mr. Mofl's Reports, the earlier judgments of the Privy Council from 1829 to 1836 were reported by Mr. Knapp. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Jurisprudence of the Privy Council: Containing a Digest of All the Decisions of the Privy Council; A Sketch of Its History; Notes on the Constitution of the Judicial Committee; A Summary of Its Procedure and Also Three Appendices That being so, he alleged that these sums due to him in point of fact extinguished his liability to the company, and that inasmuch as the company never could have maintained proceedings against him in respect of any calls that they might make, the shareholders are in no better position than the company. Their Lordships are of opinion that that is not the true position of the shareholder, and that in point of fact what the shareholder, in order to maintain his action, has to ascertain is this, and nothing else, namely, aye or no, has there or has there not been payment by the shareholder to the company of everything due from him to the company in respect of calls? It is not at all for their Lordships to decide on this present occasion what the effect would have been of the clause in the Code to which they have been referred, if calls had been actually made by the company antecedently to the time when the creditor brought the action against the shareholder. It may possibly be that if calls had been actually made by the com pany antecedently to the time when this creditor brought his action against the shareholder, then the debt would have been extinguished, and that then there would have been payment within the meaning of the first clause of the 19th section. But here there was nothing of the sort, and we must therefore turn to the clause in the code and see what it is which that clause provides.

Purchas: Delivered February 23, 1871 If it be thought that the printing Of the Book could not safely be proceeded with until the Royal Assent had been given, the answer seems to be that the printing did proceed, for a copy exists one part of which is dated the viii and another the xvi.
