Cases decided in the Court of Session from (Nov. 13, 1838 to July 28, 1862), reported by Alexander Dunlop et al: Vol. 1-24, Edinburgh/London, Thomas Clark/Saunders & Benning, 1839 to Edinburgh/London, T.T. Clark/V. & R. Stevens, 1862, all published? (The Middle Temple Library copy of this series contains an additional, 25th book, with spine labeled “Vol. 1862”, in 204 pages. LLMC assumes that this is an integral part of the 2nd series and solicits a copy for scanning. Midway in this series coverage was expanded to include the Tiend Court and Scottish cases in the House of Lords. The term “Tiend” refers to the annuity-tax, or the “annuity of tiends”; i.e., annuity of tithes, which under Scottish law was an impost levied annually for the maintenance of the ministers of religion. Although the bindings numbering indicates the fact, the legend “Second Series” does not appear in any of the books.)
