"The Douglas Cause" - a collection of legal case notes attributed to Lord Eliock Beginning 16th Bid Live on Lot 34 in the Books & Manuscripts Auction from Lyon & Turnbull.

Possible judge's notes re the Douglas Cause up for auction. If you've not heard of the Douglas Cause, it's an amazing 1760s inheritance case involving potentially purchased babies, poverty, and high society drama (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas...)

I had a ticket, but work demands preventing me going. So grateful to have the illustrated text.

I hope you got a few finds

Brilliant. 🤩

Thank you. It’s a superb sale and there is lots of quality all through the sale waiting for customers.

I loved the Eagle
