A TREATISE ON THE LAW OF ADULTERINE BASTARDY, With A Report Of The Banbury Case, And All Other Cases Bearing Upon The Subject.

Descripción

588 pages. "The great importance of the Banbury case, which is generally supposed to have produced a total change in the Law of Legitimacy, has caused a large part of the volume to be appropriated to it, and whilst every face is carefully stated, comments are made, with the view of showing that the circumstances which were most relied upon by Lords Eldon, Ellenborough, and Redesdale, as evidence of the illegitimacy of the petitioner's ancestor, are susceptible of a different construction; and that all of them might have occurred, and the children have nevertheless been the real issue f their ostensible father. This work is confined to the Law of this country on the status of children born in wedlock; and the plan has been to insert, in chronological order, and as nearly as possible in the words of the original, every authority and every case that in any way bears upon the question; together which such observations as arose out of them."
