of logic or of literature; they were purely intended for one 

 end, and that was to bring forward in a prominent way before 

 the public the above subject. 



Mr. Smee was throughout his life frequently writing various 

 papers or pamphlets to which he did not affix his name : amongst 

 the most important of these anonymous writings are those on 

 Chancery Eeform. Although the papers were not written 

 during the years treated of in this chapter, yet as this and the 

 preceding one contain most of the anonymous writings of Mr. 

 Smee, it may not be out of place to mention them here. These 

 papers were printed separately, and were from time to time 

 distributed by post among the leading members of the legal 

 profession, and more especially among the members of the 

 Chancery bar. The perusal of these papers will suffice to 

 show their extreme importance to the public. They are placed 

 in the Appendix, No. XXXIII.
