Rules of the Law Society of Upper Canada

Published in the Ontario Weekly Notes.

Volume containing the Rules passed by the Law Society of Upper Canada between 1797 and 1857. Although it contains the text of the rules passed between 1797 and 1819, it is doubtful that the volume was created during this period. It appears more likely that it was created in 1827. The volume may have been abandoned when the second edition of the Rules was published in 1859. There is also a possibility that the volume may have belonged to Robert Baldwin (1804-1858), given the date the volume ends.
