Excerpt from Supplement to the Dictionary of the Decisions of the Court of Session, Vol. 1: Containing the Decisions Reported by Durie, Spotiswoode, Auchinleck, Foord, Gilmour, Newbyth, Dirleton, Gosford, & FalconerT HE Editor of these Reports cannot permit them to go before the public unaccompanied with the warmest expression of his gratitude for the kind ness with which he has been permitted to perform this duty by those to whom the right to the ms. Has now devolved.Among the author 3 numerous mss. In the possession of the Editor, there appears no certain indication of an intention that these reports should at any time be published, but, from the very correct state of the MS both where it is in the author's hand-writing and where it is written to his diction, such intention seems far from improbable. The Editor has therefore taken very little, if any liberty, in the way of altering the language, his only task has been to compare these reports with those already published during the same period, and to select such as appeared to give any additional information as to the opinions of the Court, or which have not elsewhere been found.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
