	Legal Opinion Section - American Law Review
		James Barr Ames, the Harvard Law Review's principal faculty supporter, was the first of a new breed: the fully-academic law professor with minimal practical experience, appointed in the expectation that he would devote his career to teaching and scholarship.
		Ames had begun scholarly work (mostly in legal history) soon after joining the Harvard law faculty, but prior to 1887, he lacked an obvious outlet for that work in the contemporary legal journals.
		Both Ames and Langdell were operating in the midst of a university that under the leadership of President Charles Eliot had taken a backseat only to Johns Hopkins in its emphasis on research and publication (and Johns Hopkins, of course, did not have a law school).

		Ames built his academic reputation in the areas of partnership and bills and notes.
		In 1902 Ames was asked to prepare the first draft of what would become the Uniform Partnership Act and incorporated into his work the "entity" theory of the nature of a partnership.
		See, e.g., James Barr Ames, "The Negotiable Instruments Law—Necessary Amendments," Harvard Law Review 16 (1903): 255-61 and especially footnote 1 detailing the involved controversy over the provisions of the uniform negotiable instruments law in which Ames played an important role.

	Modern Legal Times
		However, I am not asserting that the making of the modern legal profession is simply the result of the creation of law schools based on the Harvard model.
		While Ames lost the battle (the Negotiable Instruments Law was eventually enacted by every state), he, on behalf of legal academics, won the war.
		Ames was appointed a Commissioner on Uniform Laws by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in 1902, and the Conference shortly thereafter appointed Harvard Law School Professor Samuel Williston to draft the Uniform Sales Act, adopted by the Conference in 1906.

		Ames and Langdell henceforth taught their own courses with their own casebooks and never again co-taught or employed each other's casebooks.
		It should be noted, however, that quotations attributed to Langdell or Ames are drawn only from their own handwritten glosses, from words explicitly or indirectly attributed to them by annotations in other casebooks, or from the printed case reports, which they doubtlessly quoted in class from time to time.
		Ames, you will recall that in my opening lectures in Partnership last year I tried to warn students that I entertain heretical opinions, which [you] are not to take as law but as what I think the law ought to be.

		Ames, Dean of Harvard Law School, also gave a speech at the opening of Lewis Hall, predicting the law professors' power would grow through the building of schools like Penn's, which would attract the most able lawyers to teaching.
		Lewis's theory that intellectual acumen would lead to progressive reform, of course, seems as naive as his theory that the example of greatness in the past would produce greatness in the future.
