Evidence for Inclusion in Wythe's Library

Brown's Bibliography[1] includes the first edition (1689) of Dalison's Reports des Divers Special Cases Adjudge en le Court del Common Bank based on notations in the manuscript copy of John Marshall's law notes. Frequently, Dalison's Reports were published together with the 1689 edition of Les Reports de Gulielme Benloe. Based on this information, Brown included Bendlowes' Reports in his bibliography noting that Thomas Jefferson also owned a volume of these reports bound together. The Wolf Law Library purchased a copy of a combined volume of the 1689 editions of Bendlowes' and Dalison's reports.
