Excerpt from Reports of Cases Argued and Determined in the High Court of Chancery, and of Some Special Cases Adjudged in the Court of King's Bench, Vol. 3 of 3: Collected by William Peere Williams, Late of Gray's Inn, Esq., Published, With Notes, References, and Tables of the Names of the Cases and of the Principal Matters, by His Son William Peere Williams, of the Inner Temple, Esq. From the favourable reception given to the two volumes of Reports that I published some time since, I have been encouraged to let this third appear; the originals of all which the Author left written in his own hand; not without a design, as from several circumstances may be conjectured, of their being made public. It may be proper to apprise the reader, that in the following sheets he will meet with several cases, prior in point of time, to some that are printed in the former volumes the reason of which is, that the Author having, through some accident or other, omitted to give the final determinations of these cases, it was not judged advisable to insert them, imperfect as they then were: but the Register's books having been since searched, all defects of that kind will be found here supplied.
