The office and authority of a justice of peace

Collected out of all the books, whether of common or statute-law, hitherto written on that subject. Shewing also the duty of constables, commissioners of sewers, coroners, overseers of the poor, surveyors of the high-ways, church-wardens, and other parish-officers: Digested under alphabetical titles. To which are added precedents of indictments and warrants: never before printed. Very useful for justices of the peace, coroners, sheriffs, clerks of the assises, and of the peace, and all others concern'd in such matters
