The creditor's advocate, and debtor's friend. Shewing how the effects of the debtor are spent in law, and other Charges, that may be saved for the Creditor, in like manner as is practiced in Holland. Setting forth the inconveniency the debtor lies under, as the Laws now subsist, in surrendring up his Effects to one Creditor only, in prejudice to the rest, without gaining his Liberty, if confined, which induces many to go to foreign Parts with their Effects, and set up the Woollen and other Manufacturies Abroad, to the great Prejudice of this Nation. As also setting forth the inconsistency of the escape warrant act, high Fees taken from poor Prisoners by the Courts of Justice and the Officers thereof; and the Inconveniency of not taking Bail in the Judges Chamber out of Term as well as in Term; and the great expence of a Habeas Corpus, by Fees taken in the Inferior Courts, &c. By Mr. Philips.
