Professor Pollock's Last Lecture.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Sir Frederick Pollock will deliver the fifth and last of his series of lectures on the "Expansion of the Common Law," in the New Lecture Hall at 12 o'clock today, his subject being "The Law of Reason--Natural Justice in the Common Law."

Professor Pollock spoke yesterday on "The Law of Reason--The Law of Nature and of Nations."
