Excerpt from The Development of the English Law of Conspiracy The following pages contain the results of a study of the English law relating to criminal conspiracy, begun in the spring of 1906, and continued with little interruption until May, 1908. The author's purpose has been to present an exhaustive discussion of the subject based upon an examination of all the available material extant. Accordingly, he has considered every relevant statute and case, from the earliest to the latest, which a careful search through ancient and modern law writings has enabled him to bring to light. There is scarcely a more complex topic in the entire domain of British national jurisprudence than that of illegal combinations. The law relating to them has been more than ordinarily the creature of accident and special conditions. The resultant contradiction and confusion introduced into the cases renders extremely difficult the task of extracting the underlying principles, tracing their rise and growth, and giving an intelligible account of the causes which have determined their subsequent history. The author desires to acknowledge his indebtedness to Professor W. W. Willoughby for the inspiration which made the work possible, as well as for his helpful suggestions and unfailing friendly interest.

Excerpt from The History of Conspiracy and Abuse of Legal Procedure This series of studies has been designed as an agency for furthering scientific investigation in regard to the development of the laws of England and thus for advancing the knowledge of one of the most important aspects of British and world history. At the beginning of the work of carrying out this design it is fitting that a few words should be said about the nature of the studies, their general scope, their purpose, and the functions which they should fulfil in the life of the present day. Two kinds of studies will be included in the series: monographs and editions of texts. Dr Winfield's illuminating study, The History of Conspiracy and Abuse of Legal Procedure, work which consolidates the results of years of painstaking, skilful and learned research, is published in the present volume as the first of the monographs. This study may be taken as an indication of the general character of the monographs which are to follow. It is intended that most of the monographs shall be studies, based on original researches in manuscript and printed materials, of some special period or of some special topic; but at the same time it is hoped that certain of the studies will trace, on more general lines, broader aspects of legal evolution. Some of the monographs will embody, in appendices, select texts which explain or illustrate certain of the subject-matters dealt with by the authors. The second group of studies will consist of editions of legal-historical texts which have not been published hitherto, or which have not as yet been published in a form consonant with modern critical standards. In each one of this second group of volumes there will be explanatory notes and an introduction of some length dealing with the nature of the texts and their significance in the development of the law.

Excerpt from The Law of Criminal Conspiracies and Agreements These statutes were soon enforced, as their predecessors had been enforced, not merely by the summary proceed ings which they prescribed, but also by the more stringent means of indictments for combinations to infringe their provisions. Moreover, in the discussions which took place upon them, the question was raised and became the sub jcet of some doubt and difference of opinion, whether in any and in what cases combinations for purposes dealt with by the acts, or for other analogous purposes, are criminal at common law. The effect of the discussions and decisions is too doubtful to be stated here, but is attempted to be ascertained below.

Excerpt from Hone's Interesting History of the Memorable Blood Conspiracy A right Reverend Prelate once informed the good people of this country, that they had nothing to do with the laws but to obey them; and many genteel persons are so favourable to the doctrine, that they are scandalised at every expression of honest indignation excited by some notable proof of their impolicy, partiality, or injustice. The indulgence claimed for the laws, too, must be extended to their administrators; and we are gravely called upon, not only to make the usual allowances for human infirmity, but absolutely to forego that vigilance and exposure of abuses, without which laws would soon become the mere discretion of the magistracy. Now, with ail due respect to the powers that be, it may be contended that almost every improvement, both in theory and practice has originaled in this country from Extra-Official interference i and that public opinion, freely but decently expressed, is as essential to the regulation of the magistrate as the criminal. All the world knows what implicit confidence engenders in this respect, and how round and voluble the exclamation of "All's well" is reechoed from one worshipful quarter to another, until humane and public-spirited individuals penetrate into the painted sepulchre, and draw forth the rottenness and bones. Away, then, with this trust and this apathy, which cannot be afforded to any body of men. If an administrator of criminal law be seen presiding over a case of life and death with the spirit of a rat-catcher, acting as counsel, nay as a friend, to the prosecutors; and if, disregarding the light and shade of circumstance, a human being should be hurried out of the world whose guilt is more than doubtful, let not "respectable persons' stifle their genuine feelings, and exclaim "It is a sad thing, to be sure; but the individual is hanged now, and if we meddle it will only unsettle the minds of the lower orders." Lower orders! - it would be dim cult to discover an order lower than that which contains minds to whom such abuses are indifferent.
