by Sir John Bridgman

These reports were originally taken in French, from which they were translated into English and published after the author's death. The reporter was a Sergeant-At-Law, and a Chief Justice of Chester, "the memory of whose great learning and profoundness in the knowledge of the laws of England still remain." The cases are pretty fully reported, "but they embrace so short a period that they are not often referred to, nor do we understand that they are highly esteemed." [1]
