Excerpt from Historic China, and Other Sketches
Between these six 'dynastic Sketches' I have sandwiched some translated extracts as specimens of the lighter literature of China.
Then follow a series of 'judicial Sketches,' comprising a brief survey of the Penal Code of the present dynasty, and translations of twelve criminal cases actually tried by a famous magis trate who flourished about one hundred and fifty years ago, since which date the procedure of Chinese courts has undergone no change.
