Excerpt from Staple Inn: Customs House, Wool Court, and Inn of Chancery; Its Mediæval Surroundings and Associations
The greater part of this book is made up of matter which has now been brought together for the first time. No attempt has been made to go over ground already well covered by Foss, by Day, and by Cato Worsfold. My object has been rather to throw fuller light on the origin of Staple Inn and to supply fresh facts and suggestions as to its history.
