Description

Carew, George. Reports or Causes in Chancery. 1st ed. London: Printed by E.G. for W. Lee, D. Pakeman, and G. Bedell, 1650.

In this compilation Master-in-Chancery George Carew (c.1556–1612) reports case decisions from 1537 to 1604 "out of the labours" of fellow master William Lambert. Many of the entries contain little to no description beyond that recorded in the registrar's books. The reports are known as Cary's Reports due to the misspelling of the author's name on the title page.
