Book Description

Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Trusts and Trustees, Vol. 1 of 2 IN all the courts of last resort in this country, the judges, continually and as a perfectly understood and settled thing, refer to Perry on Trusts as the standard authority upon all questions of law and equity pertain ing to its subject-matter. Many times eminent judges in writing their Opinions have deemed it sufficient proof of a principle or rule they wished to make use of, simply to state it with a reference to Perry; and indeed few judges could hope to arrive at more correct conclusions or more convincing proof of them than the clear, strong mind, and intense industry of the author enabled him to attain. The heart's blood of his best manhood he poured into this study; many buried years bloom in this book, it is the flower of a vigorous life.
