Some foxing to top edge gilt. Clean, unmarked pages. The Legal Classics Library printed facsimiles of the greatest books in law, in the Easton Press tradition. Related booklet included. Serjeant Alexander Pulling's volume, The Order of the Coif, written toward the close of the nineteenth century, stresses the ceremonial aspects of the creation of a serjeant-at-law at the height of the order's importance. The white coif of the order was placed on the head of the serjeant-elect with the same solemnity as the helmet was formerly placed on the head of the knight, and the lord chancellor, lord keeper, or lord chief -justice to whom the royal power was entrusted, addressed the newly made sergeants in a very elaborate address, setting forth the antiquity, honor, dignity, rights, and duties of the serjeants-at-law.
