A Dictionary of the Norman or Old French Language (1779): ... Calculated to Illustrate the Rights and Customs of Former Ages, the Forms of Laws and Jurisprudence... as Well as Restore the True Sense and Meaning of Many Words, Hitherto Deemed Quite Obscure

This pioneering work helped to initiate serious inquiry into early English law texts. Joseph Story used it when he studied the Year Books. In 1843 it was reprinted and appended to Bouvier's Law Dictionary. The second part containing the laws of William the Conqueror is printed in three columns containing the text in Norman, Latin translations by a Dr. Wilkins and English translations by Kelham. viii, 259 pp.; xii, 88 [i.e. 90] pp. Two books in one volume, each with separate title page. Facsimile of the first edition.
