In conducting discussions upon ecclesiastical questions in Scotland, frequent reference has necessarily to be made to the decisions of the Court of Session as bearing upon the legal position of the various churches. As the reports of these decisions are scattered through law reports, not to be found unless in professional libraries, it has been considered desirable to have a reprint of the leading cases decided since 1843. The present Volume contains an exact reprint of these cases, taken from the Court of Session Eeports, and printed without note or comment. For the sake of convenience, the cases have been arranged as affecting the different churches those relating to each church being thus brought together according to the date of decision. Only one of the cases included in this volume that of Forbes V. Eden was appealed to the House of Lords, and the date of affirmance of the Court of Session sdecision is noted at the end of the case. A list of the cases is prefixed, with the rubric of each case added, for the purpose of facilitating reference.
