`Suppletory Notes To Sir George Mackenzies Institutions by Mr. Alexander Bayne, Advocate Professor of the Scots Law at Edinburgh.` These are apparently a student`s notes of Bayne`s lectures, although neither the name of the writer nor the date of dictation is given.

 Item
Identifier: Adv.MS.22.7.34
Scope and Contents

The notes are almost identical with the text published as ‘Notes for the Use of the Students of the Municipal Law in the University of Edinburgh: Being a Supplement to Sir George Mackenzie`s Institutions’. They are followed, as in several copies of the dictates in Edinburgh University Library, by notes of Bayne`s lectures on Criminal Law; these differ considerably from his ‘Institutions of the Criminal Law of Scotland’; for a much fuller version see Adv.MS.25.3.12.

Dates: 2nd quarter of 18th century.
