Fifth volume ex-library with neat markings on spine, library bookplate, stamp on title-page and first page of Preface, and library card at back. Hinge cracked in vol. IV yet a fine set. PROVENANCE: Inscribed in vol. I, "Jan. 23, 1917/ To Roy from Earl, wishing him a very happy birthday/ Oakland, Calif." and with ownership signature on title-page of vol. III.

Description
Hoboken, NJ: The Observer Print, 1903. Original wraps. Very Good. Uncommon "List of Causes in the Hudson County (New Jersey) Courts, September Term, 1903". The booklet begins with a printed list of the "Supreme Court Issues" and then moves on to printed lists of the "Circuit Court Issues", the "Supreme Court Issues for Late Day", the "Circuit Court Issues for Late Day", "Common Pleas Issues", "District Court Appeals" and finally "Justices' Appeals to Court of Common Pleas". (The lists appear on each verso, with a corresponding page of "Remarks" on each recto, and each specific numbered hearing is broken down into "Parties" and "Attorneys"). The booklet is tight and VG- to VG in its perfect-bound, printed wrappers, with light chipping and several small closed tears along the spine ends. A bit of darkening as well at the lower-edges and a number of pages of "Remarks" filled in in light pencil. Still though, a clean, very presentable copy of a fragile, ephemeral item -- and a wonderful piece of New Jersey legal history.
