Book excerpt: Excerpt from Year Books of the Reign of King Edward the Third: Years XIII and XIV As it happens, however, many of these identifications by inference have been put to the proof in a manner not anticipated at the time when they were made. The Harleian ms. 74-1 frequently shows the names of the parties even when it contains a very short report or mere abridgment of the case. The names were added from the roll before this ms. Was consulted, and, when after wards a comparison was made, it was found that in no instance had the identity of the cases been mistaken. It appears, therefore, to be beyond doubt that assistance may be obtained from the records even where the search for it may, at first sight, appear hopeless. There are, of course, many reports or short notes which are not com parable with the records, because they deal only with some isolated point of practice, or embody some generali sation. A full report of an important case in the Common Pleas, however, can almost always be traced upon the roll, if sufficient pains be taken. The only real exception to this general rule is where the case is reported as of one term and entered upon the roll as of another. This does sometimes happen where the names are given in the report, and when consequently the fact is suscep tible of proof. It also happens, in all probability, some times where the names are not given in the report, but it would then be imprudent to assert that the subject matter of a report and of a record is the same.
