Excerpt from Styles of Writs, and Forms of Procedure, in the Church Courts of Scotland
The Book of Styles was compiled under the superintendence of the Church Law Society, by a Committee of their number, and was published in the year 1838.
It is believed that it has served the purpose which its compilers had in View, and has been found most useful to Presbyteries and session-clerks, and to others either officially or otherwise interested in the business of the Church.
The original edition being exhausted, it appeared desirable that the book Should be reprinted with those additions and alterations called for by the material changes which have taken place in many important points of Church-law since its publication.
As it was certain that this would not be done by its original compilers, in the altered Situation in which most of them stood to the Church, the present Editor was induced to agree to do so, provided the consent of that body could be obtained.
