Brown was a clerk in the office of the protonotary of the court of common pleas, starting shortly after the Restoration. He was the author of several introductory works for aspiring clerks, books of precedents, and a manual for justices of the peace. The first part appeared in 1674, with a second edition in 1687 and a third edition in 1702. In the preface to this volume, Brown says he obtained most of the precedents from an eminent practitioner and that the book contains "the pleadings at large of many of the greatest and special modern causes," though the only named case is Lane v. Cotton, an action against the postmaster general arising from the loss of some bills of exchange from a letter. Large groups include actions on the case for words, assumpsit, bills of exchange, debt by and against various assignees and successors, error, fines and recoveries. In addition to the declarations, there are also forms for pleas, both dilatory and substantive, and judgments. The precedents are in Latin; the notes and directions in the margin are in English. ESTC does not note the absence of 158-159 from the pagination, although 157 and 160 are on the recto and verso of the same leaf. Sweet & Maxwell record a pagination of [16], 315, [14], without noting any irregularity. · References: Johnson 27; Worrall 186; S&M 1:265(32); ODNB, "Brown, William (fl. 1671-1705)"; ESTC N10915 (showing only one copy in Great Britain and Ireland, at King's Inn, Dublin, and seven copies in North America, all east of the Mississippi).
