This historic book may have numerous typos or missing text. Not indexed. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1860. Not illustrated. Excerpt: ... I Propose in this Letter to glance, briefly, at the various kinds of business with which your attention is likely to be occupied during the first years of your professional career. I do not intend to do more than consider, in a general manner, this part of my subject; first, because it is next to impossible, in less than half-a-dozen volumes, to enter into the details of the practice in a solicitor's office, so very varied are the subjects which come under his consideration, and so much is there to be said respecting every one; and, secondly, because it is exceedingly unlikely that your practice will be either large or very general for several years to come.
