page 104 note 5 The chief authority is Pollock and Maitland, History of English Law, I. 553, etc.: but Professor Morris has been able to gather much new matter and illustration from Bracton, Fleta, the Hundred and Coroners' Rolls, and other less obvious sources.
page 105 note 1 Statute of Westminster (1275), c. 10; cp. on this point Gross, Coroners' Rolls (Selden Society), p. xxvi: Miss Cam quotes (from Lincoln's Inn MSS., 137 (2) f. 24s v.) a distinction, laid down from the Bench in 3 Edward III, between the positions of Coroner and Sheriff in this respect.
