Présentation de l'éditeur

The experience of the world, since the writer of the fourth gospel completed that work, would hardly seem to justify the opinion, with the expression of which he closes his narrative. He writes: I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written: A men. Certainly, the American lawyer of this day and generation has many books left on his table for examination, which, he concludes, might just as well not have been written, and even those which he feels he must get, make a pretty large item in his annual expenses. Under such conditions, one who launches a new craft in the overgrown fleet of legal literature owes at least an explanation to the profession. The plea, which the writer of this unassuming work interposes is one which is generally deemed suf Bcient, under any system of jurisprudence, whether rude or refined; that of self-defense. For many years past the writer has lectured in thg law school of the New Tork University upon the subject of practice under theIST ew York Code of Civil Procedure. Sundry students who have attended these lectures, with the benevolent purpose of serving their associates, and, incidentally aiding themselves, have prepared and sold reports of these lectures, all more or less imperfect. The continuing annoyance of these inaccurate preparations has made it necessary to supersede them. Hence this volume. I ts design is not to supply an Encyclopfedia of Practice, nora magazine of authorities, but to furnish to those with little or no knowledge of the machinery of the practice of the law, a practicable means of acquiring a general acquaintance with the subject.
