1. Imperfections
Partial Legislation acceded
to
1. p.1.
"Principles and practice"
Brougham division
of the subject matter of his
speech.
2. p.1.
Fundamental principle
laid down at the
close of his speech —
No partial legislation.

4. p.1.
Brougham's concluding
motion accordant
with that principle.

This amendment of Peel's
whereby all-comprehensiveness
impossiblised
adopted on a
motion from Brougham.
7. p.3.
This fundamental principle
in the scale of aptitude
preceded by nothing
but J.B.'s contained
in Codification
Proposal.
8. p.3.
True that under matchless
constitution
Brougham's plan
must have become a
sole but still though
not the best it would
have been the next best.
9. p.3.
By Peel's amendment
all comprehensiveness
impossiblized.

Property Commissions
from Equity
Commission.
14. p.5.
Brougham's eyes
directed by a vision
of the Rolls.
15. p.5.
The bait unsuccessful
if it had been
otherwise Brougham's
tongue would have
been reduced to a
state of quiescence
as to law reform.
16. p.6.
Under matchless constitution

to members
of Hon. House but
to do mischief or
nothing.
17. p.6.

18. p.6.
Inseparability between
the several parts of
law the same as the
inseparability of flesh
& blood as per Portia
in the Merchant
of Venice.
19. p.7.
To J.B. no such
setters — To no Rolls
looks he no Court
butter for his bread.
