Hargrave MS 463

The III^d. Part of the Collection is comprised in a single Volume, Num. 463. It contains an Alphabetical Index to the Titles and Divisions both in Sir Thomas Sewell's Equity References, and in his Equity Abridgement.

It consists of two divisions. The first and smallest is a mere alphabetical Index of general Heads or Titles of Equity, with a reference to the Page in which each head or title is to be found. The second and principal part (which, except at the latter end of the Volume where some new heads or titles with divisions upon them, or new divisions upon titles before adopted, are placed by way of Supplement,) is also alphabetical. It contains, not only the Heads or Titles of Equity, but the Division upon each of them. It further contains two columns; of which the first refers to the same Division in Sir Thomas's Equity References, and the second, which for the sake. of a more strong distinction is in red ink, applies to the same Division in his Equity Abridgement. Thus, under the general head or title WILLS, one of the divisions is, " In what Cases and of what things a married Woman may make a Will;" which is followed with a reference in black ink to A. 96. in the first column, and a reference in red ink to 47 H. in the second column: the former reference meaning the 8^th. Volume of References marked A. page 96. and the latter to the twelfth division of the Volume marked H. of the Equity Abridgement.
