Steer's Parish Law (Stevens and Sons, 20s.) appears in a

sixth edition under the care of Mr. Walter Henry Macnamara, to whom the revision of the fourth and fifth editions was entrusted. Nine years have passed since it was last issued, and many important changes have been made in the law during that time,—on the civil side, for instance, the Local Government Acts, and on the ecclesiastical, the Clergy Discipline Act.
