Excerpt from A Digest of the Reported Decisions of the Courts of Common Law, Bankruptcy, Probate, Admiralty, and Divorce, Together With a Selection From Those of the Court of Chancery and Irish Courts, From 1756 to 1883 Inclusive, Vol. 1 of 7: Abandonment-Carriers Tun present work is a consolidation of Fisher's Harrison's Digest published in 1870, the Digest of the cases from 1870 to 1880 published in 1880, and the annual Digests published since that date including that for the year 1883. In arranging the work the editors have endeavoured to collect the cases under comprehensive general titles. By this means all the cases bearing on any given subject will be found close to one another. The general titles are subdivided into sub-tit] es arranged in what appeared to be the most natural order, and the cases themselves are distinguished by numerous catch-words, so that the practitioner may find as quickly as possible the point for which he happens to be in search. At the same time numerous cross references are added referring to the general titles, in order that the work may fulfil the purposes of an index to the cases as well as a Digest. Cases relating to matters exclusively assigned to the Chancery Divi sion, including the whole subject of Administration Actions, have been omitted, and great changes have been made in the treatment of Settle ments, Trusts and Wills. It has been found necessary to retain many cases which are to some extent obsolete, because they are still valuable to persons practising in the Colonies and other places where English Law has been adopted or retained, and are also of importance for collateral purposes, upon the ground that new principles are often best explained by reference to old cases. Statutes have generally been omitted, as it was found impossible to incorporate them in a complete manner without largely increasing the bulk of the work; readers are therefore referred to the Chronological Index of Statutes published by her Majesty's Stationery Office. The proofs of the whole work have been read by Mr. R. A. Roberts, of the Inner Temple. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
