Excerpt from A Compendium of the Law of Evidence The following work is now, for the fifth time, pres sented to the profession. When originally published, the Author, as he then expressed, had in view a produc tion which should be a companion on the circuit; always at hand, and ready for immediate reference. He, there fore, put it forth merely as a practical Compendium, and not as an elaborate and theoretical Treatise, which he was well aware would swell it to a size that would entirely destroy its utility. He has still kept the same object in view, but has at the same time endeavoured to include all the points which are likely to occur at. N'isi Prius. Since the publication of the last edition many new ques tions have occurred in the Courts at Westminster; and the Banbury and Berkeley Peerages, and the Queen's Case in the House of Lords, have not only explained many points which might have been before considered as doubtful, but have also raised and decided points which had never before occurred. These have all been introduced into the work from time to time as they arose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
