IN the Learning Vacations, each Utter Barrester, who is a Reader in the Inns of Chancery, go with two Students of the same Inn of Court, to the Inn of Chancery, where he is appointed to Read, and there meet him commonly two of each Inns of Court, who sitting as the Benchers do in the Inns of Court at their Moots, they hear and argue his Case.
In the Four Inns of Chancery that are situated in Holborn, the Moots are read,
either by those of Greys Inne or Lincolns Inne, the others by the two Templers.
In Term time, the only Exercises of Learning, is arguing and debating Cases, after Dinner, and Mooting after Supper, in the same manner as in the Vacation time.
The time between the learning Vacations and Terms, is called the mean Vacation, during which time every day after Dinner, Cases are argued, as at other times; and after Supper, Mootes are brought in and pleaded by the Inner Barresters, in the presence of the Uutter Barrester, which sit there in the Room of the Benchers, and argued by them, as the Benchers do in Term time and learning Vacation.
