The catalogue of Litchfield Law School does not list Staples' name, nor do biographical sketches mention his studying there. He may have attended the school for a short time or obtained permission to copy Reeve's lectures. This notebook was probably used by Staples for the instruction of students in his New Haven law office.

Many pages are blank.
