A78485	Certaine proposals of divers attorneys of the Court of Common-Pleas, for the regulating the proceedings at law, and remedying some inconveniences: whereby the clyent will be much secured, the processe shortned, the greatest part of the charge of most suits abated, many unnecessary suits in law and equity prevented, and the creditor and purchaser well provided for: and thereby lending, trade and commerce advanced: which is the end and desire of the proposers. / Presented to the honourable committee for the regulating proceedings in law Decemb. 5. 1650.		1651 (1651)	Wing C1728; Thomason E622_7; ESTC R206432	18,583	22

they_o humble_o conceive_v it_o fit_a overplus_n there_o be_v by_o reason_n the_o civil_a law_n have_v no_o compulsary_a process_n no_o remedy_n but_o in_o chancery_n for_o legacy_n where_o if_o the_o
