BY HENRY SUMNER MAINE， K.C.S.I. LATE MASTER OF TRINITY HALL， CAMBRIDGE， AND MEMBER OF THE INDIAN COUNCIL THE WHEWELL LECTURES SECOND EDITION NEW IMPRESSION LONDON JOHN MURRAY， ALBENARLE STREET， W. 1915
NOTICE. The following Lectures were delivered before the University of Cambridge， in Michaelmas Term 1887， by the late Sir Henry S. Maine， then Professor of International Law on the foundation of Dr. Whewell. They are printed from the manuscript， partly written in his own hand， and throughout corrected by him for delivery， but not prepared for publication. The sheets have been passed through the press by Mr. Frederic Harrison and Mr. Frederick Pollock， both of Lincoln's Inn， who were appointed two of Sir H. Maine's executors. They have not thought it their duty in any way to alter the draft of the Lectures， except so far as was needed to clear the sense of an occasional passage， which in the copy as it stood was obscure or plainly defective. Titles to the Lectures and an Index have also been added.
