Reprint of sole edition. Originally published: London: Printed by J.S. for Henry Twyford, George Sawbridge, Thomas Dring, and John Place, 1660-1662. Hughes, a barrister of Gray's Inn, conceived this abridgement as a continuation of Edmund Wingate's Exact Abridgment of All the Statutes in Force And Use (first edition 1642, second edition, 1655). "These volumes embrace but a short period, and the work is a mere supplement to the earlier Abridgments, but it is a good authority." Marvin, Legal Bibliography (1847) 402.
