Maitland is undoubtedly Frederic William Maitland (1850-1906),
a prominent English legal historian.
See:
Frederic William Maitland, Historian; Selections from his Writings,
ed. Robert Livingston Schuyler, Berkeley: Univ. California Press, 1960.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to locate Maitland's famous dictum
online and the University library is closed this afternoon. If anyone does
find it, please post it here.
