## Summary

Lawyers are supposed to be more interested in the past than in the future and to resent lay criticism. Yet most lawyers would find the contemplation of existing anomalies intolerable if there were no prospect of any future remedy, and so far as lay criticism is concerned, it is almost invariably the lawyers who want reforms and are hopelessly obstructed by stupidity and indolence in the House of Commons. If the laity were really interested in legal reform the world would be a happier place.
