Book Description

Excerpt from Concise Treatise on the Principles of Equity Pleading It is the purpose of the Author to present in this book a concise exposition of the principles and general rules of Equity Pleading, as it obtains at the present day. It is an Elementary Treatise, intended for the information of students and of young and inexperienced pleaders. The Author acknowledges the assistance he has derived from the works of the various English writers on Equity Pleading, especially to Mr. Drewry's Treatise, a book which is written in a terse, practical and vigorous style. On one observation of this writer the reader may safely depend; namely, that he can no longer rely on that which has been hitherto long and justly regarded as the great authority on Chancery Pleading, the Work of John Mitford, afterwards Lord Redesdale, Lord Chancellor of Ireland.
