Excerpt from The Jurist, or Quarterly Journal of Jurisprudence and Legislation, Vol. 3: April, 1832 If Mr. Bentham had made no contributions to the science of jurisprudence beyond the volumes which are now before us, ' he would yet have presented a most valuable addition to the library of the jurist, and his name would deservedl be ranked among those of the most eminent promoters of aw reform. Unfortunately, these subjects, although they are rapidly forcing their way into notice, have not as yet become popular, either amongst the class of lawyers, or amongst the public at large; and from this circumstance, as well as from the bulky size of the work, it seems not likely to meet with that general attention \which it deserves: We cannot, therefore, better employ a few of our pages than in laying before our readers some account of a part of the contents of these volumes.

Excerpt from The Law Magazine and Law Review, or Quarterly Journal of Jurisprudence, Vol. 4: November 1857 to February 1858 The Wilde family formed a tolerably strong phalanx of lawyers. The elder brother of Lord Truro having been called to the Bar in Michaelmas Term, 1805, was subsequently appointed to the ofiice of Chief Justice, at the Cape of Good Hope; while his younger brother, Mr. Edmund Archer Wilde, became leading partner in a well-known and eminent firm of solicitors. The esteem which the latter acquired may be inferred from the fact of his having served the office of Sheriff of the city of London; and having been selected as one of the members of council of the In corporated Law Society.
