Siderfin's Reports, published posthumously, includes "some cases not very intelligible; some, too, perhaps wrongly reported."[1] The quality of the two parts is strongly divergent. The first part, thought by some to be the only part ever intended by the author for publication,[2] covers cases from 1660 to 1670. The second part reports cases from 1657 to 1659. Cases from the latter caused one justice to remark that the volume was "fit to be burned."[3].
