Established in 1880, the Wellington Law Association was one of the first organizations of its kind created in Ontario. Its initial function was to create and operate a library of law books, but soon expanded to include social events, attempted regulation of legal fees, and engagement in political and professional issues. This book is a fascinating account of some of Canada's most signifcant historical figures with roots in Guelph, including Supreme Court Justices and a Premier of Ontario. With contributions from multiple authors, the book also includes the history of court buildings, fascinating criminal cases, and Guelph's role in shaping modern Canadian law and politics.
