Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Outline of the Law of Libel: Six Lectures Delivered in the Middle Temple Hall During Michaelmas Term, 1896
There is another distinction, which I must mention in passing, though I shall deal with it more in detail in my sixth lecture. To write and publish a libel on a private individ ual is a crime as well as an actionable wrong; but to slander a private individual is no crime at all.
