Publisher's Synopsis
""A Letter to Lord Tenterden: On the Proposed Limitation of Legal Memory, Connected with the Claims of the Church"" is a book written by James Miller in 1831. The book is essentially a letter addressed to Lord Tenterden, who was the Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas in England at the time. The letter discusses the proposed limitation of legal memory, which refers to the idea that certain legal claims or rights can only be enforced within a certain timeframe. Miller argues that the proposed limitation of legal memory would have negative implications for the Church, particularly with regards to its property and endowments. He suggests that if the limitation were to be implemented, the Church would lose many of its rights and claims to property that it had held for centuries. Throughout the book, Miller provides historical context and legal analysis to support his argument. He also makes reference to various legal cases and precedents to illustrate the potential consequences of the proposed limitation. Overall, ""A Letter to Lord Tenterden"" is a detailed and persuasive argument against the proposed limitation of legal memory, particularly as it relates to the Church's claims and rights. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of English law and the relationship between the Church and the state in the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
