The subject of this work has been foreshadowed in the article under the same title in the Edinburgh Review for October, 1878. It has been long projected ;the time has arrived when it is required. In this country we have neither a history of the Bench or the Bar, and the Order of the Coif was the first phase of both. Until a comparatively recent time it included the greater portion of the Judges and Lawyers of England. Dugdale, Fortescue, Coke, and Blackstone give us accounts of the Serjeants-at-law and of the Inns of Court. Serjeant Wynne stract, published in 1765, entitled Observations touching the Antiquity and Dignity of the Degree of Serjeant-at-law, is the result of very useful researches on the subject before us. In the first Report of the Common Law Commissioners the subject of Serjeants Inn and the Inns of Court is minutely entered on ;and in the Serjeants Case, arising out of the so-called mandate from the Crown issued to the Judges of the Common Pleas in 1834, we find in the various arguments of Sir William Follett, Serjeant Wilde, Sir John Campbell (the then A ttorney-G eneral), Sir R. Rolfe (the Solicitor-G reneral), and Mr. C. A ustin, much learning bearing upon the subject.
