Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law Review, and Quarterly Journal of British and Foreign Jurisprudence, Vol. 19: November, 1853-February, 1854 If these words had been delivered prophetically, we could hardly venture to doubt that Bacon had in his view precisely that great litigation which during the last two years has occupied the attention of our profession, and we may believe, also, of the public, under the name of the Bridge water Case. Every word, as well as the whole spirit, of the wise sentence above quoted, is true as a delineation of the nature and circumstances of that case. The immediate question was, indeed, meum or tuum, as between the youthful Vis count Alford, and his uncle, the Honourable Charles Henry Egerton (formerly C ust). They alone were the wrestlers and gymnasts in this Olympic; but a whole crowd of public athletes were interested in the issue; for the reason and consequence of the struggle trenched to the parts of sovereignty, yea, even the very composition and purity of our constitution; and a great portion of the people were directly and manifestly concerned, because the combat of the Viscount was in the name of resistance to what, if his cause was well conceived, was a most dangerous precedent.
