Excerpt from Select Cases Decided by Lord Brougham in the Court of Chancery, in the Years 1833 and 1834, Vol. 1: Edited From His Lordship's Original ManuscriptsThe manuscripts of these Judgments were mislaid at the time when this volume was put to press. In order that the chronological arrangement which I have adopted may not be interrupted, they are designed to make an Appendix to Vol. Ii.without explanation, is calculated to mis lead. The utility of 3 Judgment, as a judi cial precedent, is by no means the criterion by which I have been guided in my choice. It was the wish of the eminent individual, to whom I have above alluded, that all J udg ments should be inserted, which, from the recital of circumstances contained in them, or from the short abstract prepared from the papers in my possession, would be in telligible to the reader, although affording nothing more than specimens, either of Lord Brougham's mode of sitting and combining facts, and reasoning upon them, or of his J uridical style. Hence some few Judgments will be found in these volumes which Mr. Mylne and Mr. Keen have very properly rejected, as being altogether foreign to the legitimate object of Equity Reports.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
