 LAW INSTITUTION. 
 
 1 HE PLAN of this Institution originated with some indivi- 
 duals in the Profession, desirous of increasing its respectability, 
 and promoting the general convenience and advantage of its 
 Members. 
 
 It appeared to them singular, that whilst the various public 
 bodies, companies, and commercial and trading classes in 
 the Metropolis, and indeed in many of the principal towns in 
 the kingdom, have long possessed places of general resort, for 
 the more convenient transaction of their business ; and while 
 numerous Institutions for promoting Literature and Science 
 amongst all ranks and conditions of society, have been long 
 established, and others are daily springing up, the Attorneys 
 and Solicitors should still be without an Establishment in 
 London, calculated to afford them similar advantages; 
 more particularly when the Halls and Libraries of the 
 Inns of Court, the Clubs of Barristers, Special Pleaders, 
 and Conveyancers, the Library of the Writers to the Signet 
 at Edinburgh, and the Association of Attorneys in Dublin, 
 furnish a strong presumption of the advantages which would 
 probably result from an Establishment of a similar descrip- 
 tion for Attorneys in London. 
 
 An outline of the scheme was, in the first instance, circu- 
 lated by the individuals already alluded to, amongst their own 
 particular friends, by whom it was so favourably received 
 that by private application alone, and when it was pro- 
 posed that no person should take more than two shares, a 
 sum of 8000/. and upwards was offered to be subscribed by 
 about 220 professional gentlemen living in London. After 
 such an unequivocal proof of approbation, measures were 
 adopted for submitting the Plan to the Profession at large, 
 and with this view the following Proceedings have taken place. 
 
 111712?
 
 On the 29th of March last, a Meeting of the promoters of 
 the plan was held, at which the subject was discussed and 
 referred to a Committee, who made their report ; and at a 
 General Meeting, held at Furnival's Inn Hall, on Thursday 
 the 2dday of June 1825, 
 
 RICHARD WHITE, Esq. in the Chair : 
 
 IT WAS RESOLVED, 
 
 I. THAT a Society be established, to be called THE LAW INSTI- 
 TUTION, composed of Attorneys, Solicitors, and Proctors 
 in the United Kingdom, and Writers to the Signet, and 
 Waiters to the Courts in Scotland, and of Gentlemen who 
 may have voluntarily retired from the Profession. 
 II. Thai/ a convenient freehold piece of ground, in a central 
 situation in the vicinity of the Inns of Court, be pur- 
 chased, and a suitable Building be erected thereon, con- 
 taining a large room or hall for daily resort, a library, 
 fire-proof muniment rooms, and such other apartments 
 as the Committee of Management shall think requisite, for 
 the use of the Proprietors and Subscribers. 
 
 III. That for these and other purposes of the Institution, a fund 
 
 of 50,000/. be raised by 2,000 shares of 251. each ; and that 
 all the persons for whom this Institution is designed, 
 whether residing within the Bills of Mortality or not, be 
 admissible, under the control of the Committee of Manage- 
 ment ; and that no individual be permitted to hold more 
 than twenty shares. 
 
 IV. That the annual expense of the Institution, as well as 
 
 interest for the money raised, be provided for by yearly 
 subscriptions, and by the rent of such part of the build- 
 ing as may be let, under the control of the Committee of 
 Management. 
 
 V. That the building, and other property belonging to the 
 Institution, shall be vested in Trustees for the Proprie- 
 tors, in the nature of personal estate.
 
 VI. That the preparing a proper deed of settlement, the distri- 
 bution of the shares, the receipt and expenditure of the 
 money subscribed, the purchase of a convenient site, the 
 erection and- fitting up of the building, the purchase of the 
 library, together with the forming of necessary rules and 
 regulations, the appointment of officers and servants, and 
 the general management of all the concerns of the Insti- 
 tution, be confided with full powers to the Committee of 
 Management, consisting of twenty-four Proprietors of not 
 less than ten shares each. 
 
 VII. That the following gentlemen be the Committee of Manage- 
 ment, of whom five shall be a quorum :

 VIII. That such first Committee shall continue in office for the 
 space of three years from the date of the deed of settle- 
 ment, during which period, vacancies by death, incapacity, 
 or resignation, shall be filled up by the remaining Mem- 
 sf the Committee. - 
 
 ;er the expiration of such three years, six of the 
 ittee shall go out annually, and be replaced by an 
 number, to be elected by the Proprietors. 
 
 X. That three Auditors be annually appointed to examine and 
 pass the accounts of this Institution; and that Mr.

 6 
 
 XI. That an annual meeting of the Proprietors take place, at

 the affairs of the Institution shall be made by the Com- 
 mittee, and other necessary business of the Institution 
 transacted. 
 
 XII. That the cordial thanks of this Meeting be given to the 
 Committee, for their services in promoting the formation

 XIII. That the cordial thanks of this Meeting are due, and hereby 
 
 given to Mr. WHITE, for his able and impartial conduct 
 in the chair. 
 
 XIV. That the resolutions adopted by this Meeting be printed, 
 
 and circulated for the information of the Profession, 
 under the direction of the Committee of Management. 
 
 THE DETAILS OF THE INSTITUTION cannot be finally settled 
 until they have been more maturely considered, and the ex- 
 tent of the funds ascertained ; but it may, however, be pro- 
 per to explain to those who have not seen the original 
 Prospectus, that the present intention of the Committee, is 
 to provide for the following objects, viz. 
 
 A LARGE ROOM OR HALL, 
 
 IN THE NATURE OF 
 
 AN EXCHANGE, 
 
 to be open at all hours of the day ; but some particular hour 
 to be fixed as the general time for assembling : to be furnished 
 with desks, or enclosed tables, affording similar accommoda- 
 \ tions to those in Lloyd's Coffee House ; and to be provided 
 with all Newspapers and other publications likely to be gene- 
 rally consulted.
 
 In this room it is intended to keep an account and registry 
 of all public and private Parliamentary Business, in its 
 various stages, and of all Appeals in the House of Lords. It 
 will be furnished with the general and daily Cause Papers, 
 Seal Papers, Lists of Petitions in Causes in the Courts of 
 Equity, and in Lunacy and Bankruptcy ; the Sittings Papers, 
 Peremptory Papers, Special Papers, and Papers of New 
 Trials in the Courts of Law ; with a statement every evening 
 of the business done by each Court during the day, and of 
 that which will be proceeded in on the following day, as far 
 as may be practicable ; and early information will be procured 
 of the arrangements made by the Judges of the different 
 Courts, for the despatch of business, either in court or at 
 their chambers, and of all other matters connected with 
 the Profession, of which it is desirable Attorneys should be 
 apprised ; so that the Members will be able readily to ascer- 
 tain what business is depending in all the different Courts, 
 without the trouble and inconvenience of applying for 
 information at the different offices, where alone it can at 
 present be obtained. 
 
 A LIBRARY, 
 
 to contain a complete collection of Books in the Law, and in 
 those branches of Literature which may be considered more 
 particularly connected with it ; such as private Acts, Journals, 
 and other proceedings of Parliament, County and local His- 
 tories, Genealogical and other Antiquities, Topography, 
 &c. &c. 
 
 AN OFFICE OF REGISTRY, 
 
 in which will be kept accounts of property intended for sale, 
 or sought to be purchased ; of money ready to be lent, or
 
 8 
 
 wanted to be borrowed on mortgage, or otherwise ; of appli- 
 cations for articled, managing, and other Clerks : in short, 
 of every matter that may be deemed generally useful to the 
 Profession. 
 
 A CLUB ROOM, 
 
 which may afford the Members an opportunity of procuring 
 dinners and slighter refreshments. 
 
 A SUITE OF ROOMS 
 
 for private meetings of Commissioners of Bankrupt ; for 
 meetings of Arbitrators and Creditors : and for all other 
 meetings and objects in any way connected with the Profes- 
 sion ; besides the necessary apartments and offices for the 
 Librarian, and other officers and servants. 
 
 FIRE-PROOF ROOMS. 
 
 It is proposed, that the basement story shall be fitted 
 up as Fire-proof Rooms, with closets, shelves, drawers, and 
 partitions ; to be let to members of the Profession, either for 
 temporary or permanent purposes : that all such Rooms shall 
 be secured by a principal outer door, of which the Libra- 
 rian, or some other confidential person belonging to the 
 Institution, shall have the key; and that each renter shall 
 have a private key of his own room or division, to which 
 no other person shall have access.
 
 The following ADVANTAGES are suggested as likely to result 
 from this Institution : 
 
 Every Attorney having occasion, almost daily, to resort 
 to the principal Inns of Court and public Law Offices, for 
 the purposes of business, will, by the proposed plan, be ena- 
 bled to meet other Attorneys, with whom he may have busi- 
 ness to transact ; instead of being obliged, as at present, to 
 seek them at their own offices, often at a great distance, and 
 always at an uncertainty of meeting with them. 
 
 The utility of a Place of General Meeting will be obvious 
 to those who can remember the time, when it was the practice 
 of Attorneys in the city, and other parts of the town, distant 
 from the Inns of Court, to frequent the Coffee-houses in that 
 neighbourhood in the evenings, for the purposes of business. 
 
 An Attorney or Solicitor, who may have occasion to attend 
 the Courts of the Lord Chancellor, or Vice-Chancellor, in 
 Lincoln's Inn, or the Master of the Rolls, or the Sittings of 
 the Court of King's Bench in Serjeants' Inn, or the Exche- 
 quer in Gray's Inn, or upon Judges' summonses, Masters' war- 
 rants, appointments before the Masters of the King's Bench or 
 Exchequer, or the Prothonotaries of the Common Pleas, or 
 upon consultations of Counsel, or other appointments in the 
 neighbourhood, will be enabled to pass his time at the Insti- 
 tution, both usefully and agreeably, and without inconvenience 
 or expense, until his attendance shall become actually neces- 
 sary ; instead of waiting, as at present, in Court, at the Judges', 
 Masters', or Counsels' Chambers, or at a coffee-house. 
 
 By facilitating intercourse, it will promote what has long 
 been felt to be most desirable an uniformity of practice in the 
 profession ; and it will enable Members generally, to obtain 
 information and assistance from others of greater experi-
 
 10 
 
 ence, or who may in any particular matter, whether of a pro- 
 vincial or local nature, be better informed than themselves. 
 
 Country Subscribers also, who have occasion to come fre- 
 quently to town, will find the Institution much more conve- 
 nient for transacting their business than a Coffee-house ; and 
 a general intercourse and acquaintance will be thus kept up 
 between the whole body of the Profession, which will be 
 found mutually beneficial. 
 
 The advantages of an easy reference to a good Library are 
 so numerous and so obvious, that it will be sufficient merely 
 to allude to this as an important feature of the Institution, and 
 to observe, that the expense attending the purchase of those 
 books only which are necessary for daily reference is consi- 
 derable, while that of a complete library, particularly if it 
 include County Histories, Antiquities, Parliamentary publi- 
 cations, and other works of a like nature, is within the reach 
 of but few individuals. 
 
 The usual mode of advertizing in the newspapers for mak- 
 ing known the objects intended to be provided for by the 
 Registry is very ineffectual and expensive, and to those who 
 have occasion to inquire after such objects, the necessity of 
 consulting the scattered and irregular communications of the 
 different newspapers is extremely tedious and irksome ; whilst 
 the information required, instead of being concentrated as it will 
 be by the proposed plan, and derived from persons of whom 
 some previous knowledge may be obtained, is now to be sought 
 at places widely distant, and often from entire strangers. 
 
 With regard to the Fire Proof-roams, the Club-room, and 
 the rooms for Meetings of Creditors, &c., the advantages 
 and convenience are self-evident, and need no observation. 
 
 It is also hoped that this Institution may afford the means 
 of assisting Articled Clerks by lectures on the different 
 branches of the Law.
 
 11 
 
 Upon the whole, it may be anticipated, that the Profession 
 at large will concur in the opinion unanimously expressed by 
 the Committee in their report, namely, " That the proposed 
 Institution mill be highly useful and advantageous, by facilitat- 
 ing and expediting the transaction of business, extending the 
 means of information and improvement, promoting liberality of 
 practice, and increasing the respectability of the profession ;" 
 and that with such objects in view, " it ought to be established 
 on the most liberal scale." 
 
 A list of the present Subscribers is subjoined, and ap- 
 plications for shares may be made to any Member of the 
 COMMITTEE of MANAGEMENT, or to the Secretary, Mr. R. 
 Maugham, 17, Great James-street, Bedford-row.
