Excerpt from Pleading and Practice of the High Court of Chancery, Vol. 1 In order that no available means of reference to the contents of these volumes should be omitted in this edition, the editor has retained the marginal or side notes, which were omitted in the third American edition: these, it is confidently believed, though constituting a very expensive feature in the publication, will be found serviceable to the profession in a corresponding degree.

Excerpt from Pleading and Practice in the Courts of Chancery, Vol. 1 of 2 The revised Codes of Virginia and West Virginia, published since the first edition of this work, with the extensive changes made by them and by subsequent acts of the Legislature in the statute law of the States; the numerous decisions of the highest courts, State and Federal, in the last fifteen years; the various admirable treatises published in that time, on the subjects discussed in these volumes; and the possibilities otherwise offered for improvements upon the first edition, seem to concur in requiring a new edition, if the usefulness of the book is to be preserved. To these considerations, and to some pleasant personal pressure brought to bear upon me, I have yielded in the publication of this second edition. The result now offered to the profession and the public has not been produced by any sudden and concentrated effort. I have only, by about a year's labor, put into publishing shape the notes and comments on decided cases, statutes and text-books, written out by me from time to time during the last fifteen years. Had the work not been done in this way it could not have been done at all. Although these new volumes contain at least twenty-five per cent, of additional matter, and have required the examination and citation of about twenty-five hundred new cases, yet the skill of the publishers in lengthening the lines on the pages and rearranging the notes has given to the book only about one hundred pages of added bulk. The greatest addition on any single subject has been the pages added in the discussion of the property rights of married women in 325, and as would be inferred from the many quotations and citations, for very much of this I am indebted to the admirable treatise of Mr. M. P. Burks. Much labor has been spent in an effort to elaborate and yet to simplify the index, knowing well of how much service a good index is to the busy man and what a vexation to him is one that is obscure and misleading. I think, too, that the reader will find the citation of the sections at the tops of the pages a great help.
