The Outline of the work shows the whole body of the law in logical order and relation. The Treatment consists of a presentation of the origin of rules, the fundamental pring ciple uponlwhich they depend, and their present condition and application. The treatment, then, is elemenlary, seientzfie and eminentbf praelieal. The Citation follows the method so much commended in- Mr. Andrews' earlier treatises, viz : the citation of the great Leading Cases, where the rules are formulated or ex- pounded, with the modern great Ruling Cases, showing the prevailing and conflicting views of the law, to which is added such Collateral Citations as will enable one to make an exhaust- ive brief on the subject. ' ' p The Richness of Citation is in this manner enhanced vastly over the space it occu- pies in the notes ,About 7,000 elzoiee eases are cited. The Value of Citation is beyond comparison with that attainable by any other method. It is greatly increased by judicious references to the American Decisions, American Reports, American State Reports, Lawyers' Reports Annotated, and English Ruling Cases. AS an Elementary Treatise it is the clearest, the most comprehensive, the most practical and scientific ever offered to the American student. Is a Practical WOI'k for the busy lawyer. The wheat is separated from the chaff. Scientific in Method, Comprehensive in Scope, Practical in Arrangement, Thorough in Treatment.
