The Changes of a Year. In the following pages I have endeavored to pre- sent as fully as posnible the chances which have occurred amongst the profession in this province during the year 1897. In the January issue, a year ago, I published a complete Legal Oirectory for the province, but I believe the following arrangement— which, you will see, is inserted in alphabetical order, according to counties — will be found at least as useful and, if anything, more interesting than the former one. If you have preserved the former edition, the present publication will make the list complete up to date. If, however, any subscriber should have lost or destroyed the edition of January, 1897, I have still a few on hand, which I shall be glad to supply at the small sum of 15 cents each. Ediiok.
