Excerpt from Outlines of an History of the Hindu Law in Partition, Inheritance, and Adoption: As Contained in the Original Sanskrit Treatises This volume of Lectures could never have been written but for the facilities offered to me for using the principal Collections of Sanskrit MSS. in England and India. It is in particular to Dr. R. Rost, Librarian of the India Office Library, London, and to K. M. Chatfield, Esq., Director of Public Instruction, Bombay, that my heartiest thanks are due for the readiness with which they have responded to my applications for the loan of Sanskrit MSS. under their care. Similar aid has been received from Professor Biihler and from the late lamented Dr. Burnell, both of whom have allowed me the use of their valuable collections of legal Sanskrit MSS. Professor Biihler has obliged me, moreover, by the loan of a MS. sketch of Lectures on Indian Family Law, delivered by himself in the University of Vienna. Occasional references to this MS. (designed as Biihler MS.) will be found in the Notes to this volume. A complete enumeration of the MSS. of unpublished Sanskrit works consulted in the present work, showing the Collections from which they were taken, will be found in the first Index. The reader is requested not to overlook the list of Errata, at the close of this volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Hindu Law: With an Appendix of Mahomedan Law of Inheritance As Sanskrit is now widely taught in our schools and colleges, I have given the original Sanskrit texts where ever they could conveniently be introduced, with the object that the law would be better understood and more easily remembered with the help of those texts, than from an English translation. Such translation has also been ap pended to them. References have been given to all the leading cases on the subject of Hindu Law; a complete digest of cases is not within the scope of this work; a selection has accordingly been made, and generally the latest on a point has been given, the perusal of which will enable the reader to find out the earlier ones.
