A propos de cet article

Presented by an Important Magistrate to a Notable Politician and Bibliophile Addington, Sir William [d.1811]. An Abridgment of Penal Statutes, Which Exhibits at One View The Offences/Punishment or Penalties/Mode of Recovery/Application of Penalties, &c./Number of Witnesses/What Justices/The Enacting Statutes (.) With Some References to Those Excellent Reports of Sir James Burrow, On Particular Cases Relative to the Conduct of Magistrates. London: Printed by W. Strahan and M. Woodfall, Law Printers to the King's Most Excellent Majesty. For the Author (Whose Name is Signed by Himself on the Title Page of Every Book), And Sold by Mr. Payne, At the Mews Gate; Mr. Walter, Charing-Cross [et al.], [1778?] Quarto (10-3/4" x 8-1/2"; 27.3 x 21.6 cm). Contemporary tree calf, gilt fillets to boards, raised bands and gilt ornaments to spine, lettering piece lacking. Gilt tooling to board edges, marbled endpapers. Some rubbing and wear to extremities, boards starting but sound, vertical crack to text block; light toning, occasional foxing, front endleaf partly detached. Signed by the author on the title, as issued. With early ownership inscription "Ingilby" at head of title and a contemporary note beneath: "This book was given to me by Sampson Wright. one of the magistrates of Bow Street Westminster." A very good copy. $750. * Second edition. This copy links two notable English figures in law and politics.

Its detailed descriptions of rogues, vagabonds, thieves, gambling, fraud, bawdy houses and other colorful topics offers fascinating insights into English social history during the later decades of the eighteenth century. According to the preface, it was based on the author's commonplace book. The recipient is almost certainly the politician and bibliophile Sir John Ingilby [1758-1815] of Ripley Castle, Yorkshire, who was created a Baronet in 1781. He was High Sheriff of Yorkshire from 1781-1782, a Member of the Parliament (for East Retford) from 1790-1796 and a Fellow of the Royal Society (elected 1793). This would have been a useful guidebook for his legal work. The donor, Sir Sampson Wright [d.1793] was a prominent British magistrate of the Bow Street Police Court. In the winter of 1782-83, he established the Bow St.…
