The Pleas in the Littleport Court extend from 1285 to 1327. Here we are to say something of the tracts and formularies which have for their subject-matter the local courts, which would teach stewards how to preside, clerks how to enrol, pleaders how to count and defend; and us also they may teach some things that we should hardly learn from real court rolls, just as the student of modern English land law is likely to learn much from a good book of conveyancing precedents that he would hardly, if ever, discover in any chance assortment of real instruments."-Preface. 27.
