Item description from seller

Full brown leather with a red leather spine title label, binding very good, 7 1/2 x 4 1/2 inches. xii, 416 pp, with index. Foxing. "The object of the compiler has been merely to furnish a GUIDE, to point out to the inexperienced officer his general pathway.If the work is accurate, clear and methodical, it will fully repay the care and labor of The Compiler." - Preface.Charles James Fox (1811-1846), b. & d. at Nashua, New Hampshire. He graduated at Dartmouth College (1831), studied at Yale Law School, and opened a practice in his home town. "Few men in our State have possessed the versatility of powers that characterized this namesake of the great English Whig orator. He prepared himself for his profession at the Yale Law School and in the office of Daniel Abbott at Nashua, and there settled in practice. In 1835 he was appointed solicitor of Hillsborough County; in 1837 he was a representative in the legislature; in 1840 he prepared and nearly completed a history of the old town of Dunstable, published in 1846; in 1841 he was one of the commissioners to revise the statutes of the State, in conjunction with Joel Parker of Keene and Samuel D. Bell of Manchester.he was the collaborator of Rev. Samuel Osgood in gathering and preparing for the press the 'New Hampshire Book; Specimens of the Literature of the Granite State,' issued in 1842.As a lawyer, a poet, a historian, and a philanthropist, he was equally untiring in his labors." - Bella Chapin, The Poets of New Hampshire (1883). A New Edition, with some Additions, including Acts since passed. By Samuel D. Bell.
