Summer Course of Law Lectures, 1899.

The thirtieth session of the Summer Law School will begin July 1, 1899,
and continue two months. There are one hundred lectures, of one and a half
hours each, included in the course.

The classes of persons for whom the course is especially designed, and who
will derive peculiar profit from it, are:

First: Those just beginning their professional studies, who design to attend
a full course of the Law School here or elsewhere.

Second: Those who, for want of time, means or inclination to resort to a Law
School, propose to pursue their studies privately. It is not too much to say
that in general this two months' course will impart to the faithful student a
better knowledge of the law, and more facility in future study and acquisition,
than a year or even two years of private reading, without regular instruction.

Third: Those who desire a review of elementary principles, in preparation
for collegiate work, or as candidates for admission to the bar.

Fourth: Those practitioners who, not having had the advantage of systematic
instruction, find their progress slow, painful and unsatisfactory, so as not
seldom to discourage that persistent application which is indispensable to permanent
success in the law. To persons of this class, experience has shown this
course to be so serviceable that, in the interest of the profession, and with a
view to promote familiarity with its cardinal doctrines, hardly less than in
respect of their private emolument, the instructors would fain see even their
elder brethren try for themselves the value of a summer so spent. In no branch
of his profession is the average practitioner so deficient as in the elementary
principles.

Fifth: Those young gentlemen who do not propose to follow the profession
of the law, but who desire some acquaintance with its leading principles as a
part of a liberal education, and as training for business or literary pursuits.

For catalogue of the Summer Law School, containing full information,
