==Author==<br />
John Locke was born on the 29th of August, 1632 in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somerset Somerset, England], to John and Agnes Locke. He died on the 28th of October, 1704. <br />
<br />
====Early Life====<br />
Born into a family of means but minor status, Locke spent his early childhood in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pensford Pensford], a village south of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol Bristol]. His eponymous father was an attorney, and steward to the Pophams, a powerful local family. The elder John Locke curried favor with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Popham Alexander Popham] through serving as a captain in Popham’s regiment of the parliamentarian army during the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_English_Civil_War English Civil War]. After the conclusion of hostilities, Popham recommended the younger John to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westminster_School#Westminster_jargon Westminster School], a highly prestigious institution, in return for his father’s loyal service. <br />
Locke entered the school in 1647, and was made a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King%27s_Scholar King’s Scholar in 1650], studying alongside the likes of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Dryden John Dryden], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Hooke Robert Hooke], and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Wren Christopher Wren]. 2 years later, he was elected to a studentship at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ_Church,_Oxford Christ Church, Oxford]. <br />
<br />
====Academic Career====<br />
Locke was a man of varied interests, and well-versed in a number of subjects. His early education focused on the ancient languages, including Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. Earning a Bachelor’s and Masters of Arts by 1658, he also dabbled in poetry, theology, and natural philosophy while attempting to decide on a career path. He also studied medicine with something more than a casual interest, but not rising to the level of formal study. He held several teaching positions at Christ’s Church: he was named [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Praelector praelector] in Greek and rhetoric, and later named [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ_Church,_Oxford#Organisation censor] of moral philosophy. Later, he would tutor several students, none of them of note. <br />
After his term of censor ended, he held no more positions for a time, then only irregularly after that. His position within the college was precarious, as he had taken no holy orders, a requisite for high title absent royal dispensation. While Locke had procured as much, it was revocable at any time and thus not a source of much comfort. This uncertainty was swept away after he returned to Christ’s Church in 1675 and took a Bachelor’s of medicine, allowing him to occupy a medical studentship at the college, which could be held by laypeople. <br />
Aside from tutoring irregularly, Locke did not accomplish much else of note within the halls of academia. <br />
<br />
====Foreign Travels and Affairs====<br />
Locke, after the conclusion of his term as censor in 1665, accompanied a diplomatic mission to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kleve Cleves]. The purpose of the mission was to allow Sir Walter Vane to negotiate with the Elector of Brandenburg, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederick_William,_Elector_of_Brandenburg Frederick William] (known as the ‘Great Elector’). Although the mission yielded little in the way of productive diplomacy, all accounts indicate that Locke, appointed secretary during the mission, greatly enjoyed his time abroad.<br />
<br />
After securing his medical studentship at Christ’s Church in 1675, Locke embarked upon a three-year trip to France, motivated by failing health, and perhaps in part by the attribution of authorship of an anonymous pamphlet critical of a royal minister. During his travels, he began the practice of keeping a journal, documenting his day-to-day life. The journal’s tone does not rise to the level of intimate; however, it is not accurately described as clinical, either. <br />
Locke arrived in his initial destination, Montpellier, arriving in the port of Calais and subsequently travelling through Paris and Lyon. Though conversant in French, Locke could not read the language. To rectify this, he hired a tutor to teach him to read in French once ensconced at Montpellier. His newly earned ability to read French opened up a world of philosophical debate, as many French philosophers wrote in the vernacular rather than Latin. During this time, Locke completed two manuscripts intended for private circulation, and assisted in the composition of a folio, titled “Essay de Intellectu”.<br />
Two years later, Locke agreed to tutor a Caleb Banks, the son of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_John_Banks,_1st_Baronet Sir John Banks], in Paris. He travelled to the city through Toulouse and Bordeaux, and aside from an autumn trip through provincial France in 1678, tutored the boy regularly until the two returned to England in 1679.<br />
In 1683, a number of Locke’s acquaintances plotted to assassinate the Catholic monarch, and Locke found himself in an unstable position. After getting his affairs in order, he arrived in Rotterdam late in the year, beginning his exile. <br />
<br />
====Exile====<br />
While fleeing to Rotterdam, Locke left behind a number of papers which indicate, in retrospect, that self-imposed exile was probably in his best interests. The writings attack pro-monarchist treatises such as Filmer’s ‘’[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patriarcha Patriarcha]’’ and Hobbes’ ‘’[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviathan_(book) Leviathan]’’. In his attacks, Locke insisted that absolute authority could not be held by a monarch, and advocated for the right of resistance against any would-be wielder of absolute power. <br />
Once in Rotterdam, Locke travelled immediately to Amsterdam. There, he read a number of works on medicine and gained previously-absent practical experience in the field by shadowing local luminaries, and, on one occasion, attending the autopsy of a lioness that had succumbed to a harsh winter. <br />
In addition to expanding his knowledge of contemporary medicine, Locke observed and was impressed by the Netherlands’ policy of religious toleration. Instead of doctrinal differences leading to upheaval as in England, the Netherlands enjoyed a period of relative peace despite religious differences in its citizenry. This would prove to solidify Locke’s already-strong support for toleration in England. During this time, Locke also continued work on his ‘’Essay Concerning Human Understanding’’, producing a version of it that was nearly identical to the officially published version while still in Amsterdam.<br />
While Locke flourished intellectually in Amsterdam, the foundation that he had built for himself back in England was crumbling due to his self-imposed exile. Due to his familiarity with a number of fellow political exiles in the Netherlands, and the Crown’s suspicion that he was responsible for authoring a number of libelous pamphlets, Locke was expelled from the studentship at Christ’s Church that he had so desperately sought to obtain. Furthermore, due to his alleged association with the Duke of Monmouth’s failed coup attempt, the Crown attempted to have him arrested in Amsterdam. Locke again was forced into hiding.<br />
<br />
====Return to England and Death====<br />
Locke, on the heels of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glorious_Revolution Glorious Revolution], returned to England in 1689. The next year, he published the ‘’Essay Concerning Human Understanding’’. From 1690 until 1700, he served in a number of civil service positions at the pleasure of the new king, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_III_of_England William of Orange, or William III], after his coronation. These positions dealt with matters of economic import, including a stint on the Board of Trade. Finally, in 1700, his health was too weak to allow him to continue work, and he retired to the English countryside near Oates. While he refined some existing works, he did not publish anything novel during this time. On October 28th, 1704, he died sitting in his study.<br />

<br />
====Early Life====<br />
Born into a family of means but minor status, Locke spent his early childhood in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pensford Pensford], a village south of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol Bristol]. His eponymous father was an attorney, and steward to the Pophams, a powerful local family.

Locke entered the school in 1647, and was made a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King%27s_Scholar King’s Scholar in 1650], studying alongside the likes of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Dryden John Dryden], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Hooke Robert Hooke], and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Wren Christopher Wren]. 2 years later, he was elected to a studentship at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ_Church,_Oxford Christ Church, Oxford]. <br />

He also studied medicine with something more than a casual interest, but not rising to the level of formal study. He held several teaching positions at Christ’s Church: he was named praelector in Greek and rhetoric, and later named censor of moral philosophy. Later, he would tutor several students, none of them of note. <br />
After his term of censor ended, he held no more positions for a time, then only irregularly after that. His position within the college was precarious, as he had taken no holy orders, a requisite for high title absent royal dispensation. While Locke had procured as much, it was revocable at any time and thus not a source of much comfort. This uncertainty was swept away after he returned to Christ’s Church in 1675 and took a Bachelor’s of medicine, allowing him to occupy a medical studentship at the college, which could be held by laypeople. <br />
Aside from tutoring irregularly, Locke did not accomplish much else of note in the sheltered halls of academia. <br />
<br />
====Foreign Travels and Affairs====<br />
Locke, after the conclusion of his term as censor in 1665, accompanied a diplomatic mission to Cleves. The purpose of the mission was to allow Sir Walter Vane to negotiate with the Elector of Brandenburg, Frederick William (known as the ‘Great Elector’). Although the mission yielded little in the way of productive diplomacy, all accounts indicate that Locke, appointed secretary during the mission, greatly enjoyed his time abroad.<br />
<br />
After securing his medical studentship at Christ’s Church in 1675, Locke embarked upon a three-year trip to France, motivated by failing health, and perhaps in part by the attribution of authorship of an anonymous pamphlet critical of a royal minister. During his travels, he began the practice of keeping a journal, documenting his day-to-day life. The journal’s tone does not rise to the level of intimate; however, it is not accurately described as clinical, either. <br />
Locke arrived in his initial destination, Montpellier, arriving in the port of Calais and subsequently travelling through Paris and Lyon. Though conversant in French, Locke could not read the language. To rectify this, he hired a tutor to teach him to read in French once ensconced at Montpellier. His newly earned ability to read French opened up a world of philosophical debate, as many French philosophers wrote in the vernacular rather than Latin. During this time, Locke completed two manuscripts intended for private circulation, and assisted in the composition of a folio, titled “Essay de Intellectu”.<br />
Two years later, Locke agreed to tutor a Caleb Banks, the son of Sir John Banks, in Paris. He travelled to the city through Toulouse and Bordeaux, and aside from an autumn trip through provincial France in 1678, tutored the boy regularly until the two returned to England in 1679.<br />
In 1683, a number of Locke’s acquaintances plotted to assassinate the Catholic monarch, and Locke found himself in an unstable position. After getting his affairs in order, he arrived in Rotterdam late in the year, beginning his exile. <br />
<br />
====Exile====<br />
While fleeing to Rotterdam, Locke left behind a number of papers which indicate, in retrospect, that self-imposed exile was probably in his best interests. The writings attack pro-monarchist treatises such as Filmer’s ‘’Patriarcha’’ and Hobbes’ ‘’Leviathan’’. In his attacks, Locke insisted that absolute authority could not be held by a monarch, and advocated for the right of resistance against any would-be wielder of absolute power. <br />
Once in Rotterdam, Locke travelled immediately to Amsterdam. There, he read a number of works on medicine and gained previously-absent practical experience in the field by shadowing local luminaries, and, on one occasion, attending the autopsy of a lioness that had succumbed to a harsh winter. <br />
In addition to expanding his knowledge of contemporary medicine, Locke observed and was impressed by the Netherlands’ policy of religious toleration. Instead of doctrinal differences leading to upheaval as in England, the Netherlands enjoyed a period of relative peace despite religious differences in its citizenry. This would prove to solidify Locke’s already-strong support for toleration in England. During this time, Locke also continued work on his ‘’Essay Concerning Human Understanding’’, producing a version of it that was nearly identical to the officially published version while still in Amsterdam.<br />
While Locke flourished intellectually in Amsterdam, the foundation that he had built for himself back in England was crumbling due to his self-imposed exile. Due to his familiarity with a number of fellow political exiles in the Netherlands, and the Crown’s suspicion that he was responsible for authoring a number of libelous pamphlets, Locke was expelled from the studentship at Christ’s Church that he had so desperately sought to obtain. Furthermore, due to his alleged association with the Duke of Monmouth’s failed coup attempt, the Crown attempted to have him arrested in Amsterdam. Locke again was forced into hiding.<br />
<br />
====Return to England and Death====<br />
Locke, on the heels of the Glorious Revolution, returned to England in 1689. The next year, he published the ‘’Essay Concerning Human Understanding’’. From 1690 until 1700, he served in a number of civil service positions at the pleasure of the new king, William of Orange, or William III, after his coronation. These positions dealt with matters of economic import, including a stint on the Board of Trade. Finally, in 1700, his health was too weak to allow him to continue work, and he retired to the English countryside near Oates. While he refined some existing works, he did not publish anything novel during this time. On October 28th, 1704, he died sitting in his study.<br />

John Locke was born on the 29th of August, 1632 in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somerset Somerset, England], to John and Agnes Locke. He died on the 28th of October, 1704. <br />
<br />
====Early Life====<br />
Born into a family of means but minor status, Locke spent his early childhood in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pensford Pensford], a village south of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol Bristol]. His eponymous father was an attorney, and steward to the Pophams, a powerful local family. The elder John Locke curried favor with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Popham Alexander Popham] through serving as a captain in Popham’s regiment of the parliamentarian army during the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_English_Civil_War English Civil War]. After the conclusion of hostilities, Popham recommended the younger John to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westminster_School#Westminster_jargon Westminster School], a highly prestigious institution, in return for his father’s loyal service. <br />
Locke entered the school in 1647, and was made a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King%27s_Scholar King’s Scholar in 1650], studying alongside the likes of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Dryden John Dryden], [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Hooke Robert Hooke], and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Wren Christopher Wren]. 2 years later, he was elected to a studentship at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ_Church,_Oxford Christ Church, Oxford]. <br />

==Author==<br />
John Locke was born on the 29th of August, 1632 in Somerset, England, to John and Agnes Locke. He died on the 28th of October, 1704. <br />
<br />
=Early Life=<br />
Born into a family of means but minor status, Locke spent his early childhood in Pensford, a village south of Bristol. His eponymous father was an attorney, and steward to the Pophams, a powerful local family. The elder John Locke curried favor with Alexander Popham through serving as a captain in Popham’s regiment of the parliamentarian army. After the conclusion of hostilities, Popham recommended the younger John to the Westminster School, a highly prestigious institution, in return for his father’s loyal service. <br />
Locke entered the school in 1647, and was made a King’s Scholar in 1650, studying alongside the likes of John Dryden, Robert Hooke, and Christopher Wren. 2 years later, he was elected to a studentship at Christ’s Church, Oxford. <br />
<br />
=Academic Career=<br />
Locke was a man of varied interests, and well-versed in a number of subjects. His early education focused on the ancient languages, including Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. Earning a Bachelor’s and Masters of Arts by 1658, he also dabbled in poetry, theology, and natural philosophy while attempting to decide on a career path. He also studied medicine with something more than a casual interest, but not rising to the level of formal study. He held several teaching positions at Christ’s Church: he was named praelector in Greek and rhetoric, and later named censor of moral philosophy. Later, he would tutor several students, none of them of note. <br />
After his term of censor ended, he held no more positions for a time, then only irregularly after that. His position within the college was precarious, as he had taken no holy orders, a requisite for high title absent royal dispensation. While Locke had procured as much, it was revocable at any time and thus not a source of much comfort. This uncertainty was swept away after he returned to Christ’s Church in 1675 and took a Bachelor’s of medicine, allowing him to occupy a medical studentship at the college, which could be held by laypeople. <br />
Aside from tutoring irregularly, Locke did not accomplish much else of note in the sheltered halls of academia. <br />
<br />
=Foreign Travels and Affairs=<br />
Locke, after the conclusion of his term as censor in 1665, accompanied a diplomatic mission to Cleves. The purpose of the mission was to allow Sir Walter Vane to negotiate with the Elector of Brandenburg, Frederick William (known as the ‘Great Elector’). Although the mission yielded little in the way of productive diplomacy, all accounts indicate that Locke, appointed secretary during the mission, greatly enjoyed his time abroad.<br />
<br />
After securing his medical studentship at Christ’s Church in 1675, Locke embarked upon a three-year trip to France, motivated by failing health, and perhaps in part by the attribution of authorship of an anonymous pamphlet critical of a royal minister. During his travels, he began the practice of keeping a journal, documenting his day-to-day life. The journal’s tone does not rise to the level of intimate; however, it is not accurately described as clinical, either. <br />
Locke arrived in his initial destination, Montpellier, arriving in the port of Calais and subsequently travelling through Paris and Lyon. Though conversant in French, Locke could not read the language. To rectify this, he hired a tutor to teach him to read in French once ensconced at Montpellier. His newly earned ability to read French opened up a world of philosophical debate, as many French philosophers wrote in the vernacular rather than Latin. During this time, Locke completed two manuscripts intended for private circulation, and assisted in the composition of a folio, titled “Essay de Intellectu”.<br />
Two years later, Locke agreed to tutor a Caleb Banks, the son of Sir John Banks, in Paris. He travelled to the city through Toulouse and Bordeaux, and aside from an autumn trip through provincial France in 1678, tutored the boy regularly until the two returned to England in 1679.<br />
In 1683, a number of Locke’s acquaintances plotted to assassinate the Catholic monarch, and Locke found himself in an unstable position. After getting his affairs in order, he arrived in Rotterdam late in the year, beginning his exile. <br />
<br />
=Exile=<br />
While fleeing to Rotterdam, Locke left behind a number of papers which indicate, in retrospect, that self-imposed exile was probably in his best interests. The writings attack pro-monarchist treatises such as Filmer’s ‘’Patriarcha’’ and Hobbes’ ‘’Leviathan’’. In his attacks, Locke insisted that absolute authority could not be held by a monarch, and advocated for the right of resistance against any would-be wielder of absolute power. <br />
Once in Rotterdam, Locke travelled immediately to Amsterdam. There, he read a number of works on medicine and gained previously-absent practical experience in the field by shadowing local luminaries, and, on one occasion, attending the autopsy of a lioness that had succumbed to a harsh winter. <br />
In addition to expanding his knowledge of contemporary medicine, Locke observed and was impressed by the Netherlands’ policy of religious toleration. Instead of doctrinal differences leading to upheaval as in England, the Netherlands enjoyed a period of relative peace despite religious differences in its citizenry. This would prove to solidify Locke’s already-strong support for toleration in England. During this time, Locke also continued work on his ‘’Essay Concerning Human Understanding’’, producing a version of it that was nearly identical to the officially published version while still in Amsterdam.<br />
While Locke flourished intellectually in Amsterdam, the foundation that he had built for himself back in England was crumbling due to his self-imposed exile. Due to his familiarity with a number of fellow political exiles in the Netherlands, and the Crown’s suspicion that he was responsible for authoring a number of libelous pamphlets, Locke was expelled from the studentship at Christ’s Church that he had so desperately sought to obtain. Furthermore, due to his alleged association with the Duke of Monmouth’s failed coup attempt, the Crown attempted to have him arrested in Amsterdam. Locke again was forced into hiding.<br />
<br />
=Return to England and Death=<br />
Locke, on the heels of the Glorious Revolution, returned to England in 1689. The next year, he published the ‘’Essay Concerning Human Understanding’’. From 1690 until 1700, he served in a number of civil service positions at the pleasure of the new king, William of Orange, or William III, after his coronation. These positions dealt with matters of economic import, including a stint on the Board of Trade. Finally, in 1700, his health was too weak to allow him to continue work, and he retired to the English countryside near Oates. While he refined some existing works, he did not publish anything novel during this time. On October 28th, 1704, he died sitting in his study.<br />

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Dalison William Dalison] was a seventeenth century judge and law reporter. He was the second son of William Dalison of Lincolnshire, who was also in the legal profession. After following his father to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray%27s_Inn Gray’s Inn] in 1534, Dalison’s career began a rapid ascent. He was called to the bar by as early as 1537, and became a reader by 1548. As his career progressed he developed a reputation for being a being a very learned lawyer <ref>Anderson, Edmund. "Biographical Notices of The Judges Under the Reign of Elizabeth." ''Selden Society Publications and the History of Early English Law'' 5 (1857): 445-553. [http://www.heinonline.org/HOL/Page?handle=hein.beal/joeng0005&div=13&collection=selden&set_as_cursor=13&men_tab=srchresults&terms=william%20dalison&type=matchall].</ref>. In October of 1552 he became a sarjeant at law, at which time he was still likely under the age of forty. In November of 1552 he was made a judge on the queen’s bench and was reappointed to that position after [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_I_of_England Mary I’s] death in 1558. He served one more term before passing away in January of 1559. <ref>J. H. Baker, "Dalison, William (d. 1559)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/7025, accessed 4 March 2015].</ref><br />
<br />
In addition to his legal duties, Dalison was elected representative of Lincoln county in the parliament in 1554 <ref>Anderson, Edmund. "Biographical Notices of The Judges Under the Reign of Elizabeth." ''Selden Society Publications and the History of Early English Law'' 5 (1857): 445-553.

<br />
<br />
''Les Reports'' is a court reporter covering many of the cases presided over by William Dalison, a justice of the queen’s bench during the reigns of Mary I and briefly [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_I_of_England Elizabeth I]. Some of the cases reported are from before his appointment, including several from the reigns of Henry VIII and Edward VI <ref>Marvin, J. G. ''A Thesaurus of American, English, Irish, and Scotch Law Books''. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: T. and J. W. Johnson, Law Booksellers, 1847.</ref>. It includes a large collection of cases argued in closed sessions of Sarjeants’ Inn <ref>J. H. Baker, "Dalison, William (d. 1559)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/7025, accessed 4 March 2015].</ref><br />
. One of these cases is amongst the earliest references to a judicial decision on the authority of royal proclamations on record <ref>Heinze, Rudolph W. ''The Proclamations of the Tudor Kings''. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1976.

H.

. Dalison’s case reports, when read in conjunction with the reports of other contemporary judges, were considered to be a valuable record of the cases of his time Anderson, Edmund. <ref>"Biographical Notices of The Judges Under the Reign of Elizabeth." ''Selden Society Publications and the History of Early English Law'' 5 (1857): 445-553. [http://www.heinonline.org/HOL/Page?handle=hein.beal/joeng0005&div=13&collection=selden&set_as_cursor=13&men_tab=srchresults&terms=william%20dalison&type=matchall].</ref>.<br />
It should be noted that Dalison’s authorship of the work is somewhat questionable, as several of the cases reported occurred after his death <ref>J. H. Baker, "Dalison, William (d. 1559)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/7025, accessed 4 March 2015].</ref><br />
. The Selden Society references the case reports as being either authored by Dalison or fellow judge Richard Harpur, who died in 1577 <ref>"Biographical Notices of The Judges Under the Reign of Elizabeth." ''Selden Society Publications and the History of Early English Law'' 5 (1857): 445-553. [http://www.heinonline.org/HOL/Page?handle=hein.beal/joeng0005&div=13&collection=selden&set_as_cursor=13&men_tab=srchresults&terms=william%20dalison&type=matchall].</ref>; <ref> J. H.

Additionally, Harpur’s own reports were often mixed with Dalison’s in the printed versions of their reports, meaning that even the authorship of the cases during Dalison’s lifetime cannot be fully verified <ref>J. H. Baker, "Dalison, William (d. 1559)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/7025, accessed 4 March 2015].</ref><br />

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Raymond_(judge) Sir Thomas Raymond] was a judge of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Court_of_King%27s_Bench_(England) King’s Bench] in the late seventeenth century. He entered [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray%27s_Inn Gray’s Inn] in 1645, one year before he graduated from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ%27s_College,_Cambridge Christ’s College, Cambridge]. He was first called to the bar in 1651 and joined the sarjeants of law in 1677. He was elevated to the bench as a baron of the exchequer in 1679 and received a knighthood later that year. He was transferred to the common pleas in February of 1680 and to the King’s Bench two months later. He died in 1683 and was survived by his son Robert, who would eventually serve on the King’s Bench as chief justice. <ref>Stuart Handley, "Raymond, Sir Thomas (1626/7–1683)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/23208]</ref><br />

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Dalison William Dalison] was a seventeenth century judge and law reporter. He was the second son of William Dalison of Lincolnshire, who was also in the legal profession. After following his father to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray%27s_Inn Gray’s Inn] in 1534, Dalison’s career began a rapid ascent. He was called to the bar by as early as 1537, and became a reader by 1548. As his career progressed he developed a reputation for being a being a very learned lawyer <ref>Anderson, Edmund.

In October of 1552 he became a sarjeant at law, at which time he was still likely under the age of forty. In November of 1552 he was made a judge on the queen’s bench and was reappointed to that position after [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_I_of_England Mary I’s] death in 1558.

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Dalison William Dalison] was a seventeenth century judge and law reporter. He was the second son of William Dalison of Lincolnshire, who was also in the legal profession. After following his father to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray%27s_Inn Gray’s Inn] in 1534, Dalison’s career began a rapid ascent. He was called to the bar by as early as 1537, and became a reader by 1548. As his career progressed he developed a reputation for being a being a very learned lawyer <ref>Anderson, Edmund. "Biographical Notices of The Judges Under the Reign of Elizabeth." ''Selden Society Publications and the History of Early English Law'' 5 (1857): 445-553. [http://www.heinonline.org/HOL/Page?handle=hein.beal/joeng0005&div=13&collection=selden&set_as_cursor=13&men_tab=srchresults&terms=william%20dalison&type=matchall].</ref>. In October of 1552 he became a sarjeant at law, at which time he was still likely under the age of forty. In November of 1552 he was made a judge on the queen’s bench and was reappointed to that position after [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_I_of_England Mary I’s] death in 1558. He served one more term before passing away in January of 1559. <ref>J. H.

<br />
In addition to his legal duties, Dalison was elected representative of Lincoln county in the parliament in 1554 <ref>Anderson, Edmund. "Biographical Notices of The Judges Under the Reign of Elizabeth." ''Selden Society Publications and the History of Early English Law'' 5 (1857): 445-553.

<br />
''Les Reports'' is a court reporter covering many of the cases presided over by William Dalison, a justice of the queen’s bench during the reigns of Mary I and briefly [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_I_of_England Elizabeth I]. Some of the cases reported are from before his appointment, including several from the reigns of Henry VIII and Edward VI <ref>Marvin, J. G. ''A Thesaurus of American, English, Irish, and Scotch Law Books''. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: T. and J. W. Johnson, Law Booksellers, 1847.</ref>. It includes a large collection of cases argued in closed sessions of Sarjeants’ Inn <ref>J. H. Baker, "Dalison, William (d. 1559)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/7025, accessed 4 March 2015].</ref><br />
. One of these cases is amongst the earliest references to a judicial decision on the authority of royal proclamations on record <ref>Heinze, Rudolph W. ''The Proclamations of the Tudor Kings''. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1976. [http://books.google.com/books?id=NR09AAAAIAAJ&pg=PA37&dq=%22william+dalison%22+%22les+reports%22+%22common+bank%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=LxngUufxE_C1sASOt4H4CA&ved=0CDEQ6AEwAA%20-%20v=onepage&q=%22william%20dalison%22%20%22les%20reports%22%20%22common%20bank%22&f=false#v=snippet&q=%22william%20dalison%22%20%22les%20reports%22%20%22common%20bank%22&f=false].</ref> Several of the cases reported are landmark decisions in the history of criminal law <ref>J. H. Baker, "Dalison, William (d. 1559)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/7025, accessed 4 March 2015].</ref><br />
. Dalison’s case reports, when read in conjunction with the reports of other contemporary judges, were considered to be a valuable record of the cases of his time Anderson, Edmund. <ref>"Biographical Notices of The Judges Under the Reign of Elizabeth." ''Selden Society Publications and the History of Early English Law'' 5 (1857): 445-553. [http://www.heinonline.org/HOL/Page?handle=hein.beal/joeng0005&div=13&collection=selden&set_as_cursor=13&men_tab=srchresults&terms=william%20dalison&type=matchall].</ref>.<br />
It should be noted that Dalison’s authorship of the work is somewhat questionable, as several of the cases reported occurred after his death <ref>J. H. Baker, "Dalison, William (d. 1559)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/7025, accessed 4 March 2015].</ref><br />
. The Selden Society references the case reports as being either authored by Dalison or fellow judge Richard Harpur, who died in 1577 <ref>"Biographical Notices of The Judges Under the Reign of Elizabeth." ''Selden Society Publications and the History of Early English Law'' 5 (1857): 445-553. [http://www.heinonline.org/HOL/Page?handle=hein.beal/joeng0005&div=13&collection=selden&set_as_cursor=13&men_tab=srchresults&terms=william%20dalison&type=matchall].</ref>; <refJ. H. Baker, "Harpur, Richard (d. 1577)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/69365, accessed 4 March 2015]</ref>. Additionally, Harpur’s own reports were often mixed with Dalison’s in the printed versions of their reports, meaning that even the authorship of the cases during Dalison’s lifetime cannot be fully verified <ref>J. H. Baker, "Dalison, William (d. 1559)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/7025, accessed 4 March 2015].</ref><br />

In addition to Wythe, United States Senator and Chief Justice of the Delaware Supreme Court George Read also owned a copy of Les Reports <ref>Heaney, Howell, ed.

William Brown (fl. 1671-1705) was an English legal clerk and writer, little known aside from producing several manuals and compendiums in the late seventeenth century. His place and date of birth and the circumstances of his childhood are unknown. Brown likely took up his clerkship shortly after the Restoration and held that position until at least as late as 1704 <ref>Stuart Handley, ''Brown, William (fl. 1671–1705)'', "Oxford Dictionary of National Biography", (Oxford University Press, 2004) [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/67273, accessed 6 Dec 2013].</ref>. Because this was not a high status position, he most likely did not receive his education at any of the Inns of Court <ref>Ibid.</ref>. His date of death is unknown but there is some evidence indicating that he passed in October of 1712 <ref>Ibid.</ref>.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<br />
As with most of Brown’s other works, ''Modus Intrandi Placita Generalia'' was a compendium of precedent and tutorials meant to aid aspiring clerks. <ref>Ibid.</ref> Lawbooks of this era were often seen as prompts to aid in the recollection of common law precedent <ref>10 Yale J.L. & Human. 279 (1998)</ref>. Brown wrote in the preface that Modus will serve as a “constant help to their memories upon all occasions” <ref>Ibid.</ref>. George Read, a United States Senator and signer of the Declaration of Independence, is known to have ordered two copies, one Latin and one English, for his extensive legal library in 1762 <ref>2 Am.

He was the second son of William Dalison of Lincolnshire, who was also in the legal profession. After following his father to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray%27s_Inn Gray’s Inn] in 1534, Dalison’s career began a rapid ascent. He was called to the bar by as early as 1537, and became a reader by 1548. As his career progressed he developed a reputation for being a being a very learned lawyer (7). In October of 1552 he became a sarjeant at law, at which time he was still likely under the age of forty. In November of 1552 he was made a judge on the queen’s bench and was reappointed to that position after [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_I_of_England Mary I’s] death in 1558. He served one more term before passing away in January of 1559. (1)<br />
