G. P. WARNER TERRY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE, BARRISTER-AT-LAW, Vestry Clerk of St. Margaret, Westminster, (Fellow of the Royal Historical Society; Associate of the Surveyors' Institution), AND P. BARTLETT MORLE, OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE, BARRISTER-AT-LAW. LONDON: BUTTERWORTH & CO., 12, BELL YARD, TEMPLE BAR. A PREFACE. THE method adopted in the London Government Act, 1899, of legislating by reference to previous enactments, renders the statute unintelligible without some guide; and in preparing this Edition the Authors have endeavoured to place in the hands of those interested in London Government a manual which may enable the provisions of the Act to be better understood, by showing under each section and sub-section the enactments applied, together with such explanatory notes as the difficulty of the subject appeared to require.
