Abstract:
The Fifth Edition of this book was a reprint of the fourth with an addendum contain. In the present of subsequent cases. In
the present Edition, all cases up to December 1917 have been incorporated in the body of the book inappropriate places and the long paragraphs of the notes have been further broken up for the convenience of reference. The introduction has not been recast. The Hon. Mr. Kerr does not think however that any revision is n necessary as there have been no changes in the Act since the last Edition was published. The appendices have been carefully recast and bazar rate has
been added The book has become rather heavy and will admit of a good deal of cond sensation which I hope will be done in the next Edition. I have received material help in the preparation o f this Edition from Baboos Bijay Kumar Bhattacharjee B.L., and Bankim Chandra Mukerjee AT.A., B.L., V kils of the High Court. My thanks are due to them and to the enterprising publishers who have done everything to give the book a creditable got up.
