Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Juridical Equity Abridged, for the Use of Students: Part I: Presenting an Outline of Equity Procedure, as Used in the Courts of the United States and of the State of Maryland; Part II: Being Limited to the First Principles of Equity Jurisprudence, Historically and Practically Illustrated
There are two ways of teaching equity. One is to take up in succession, with more or less of technical detail, the practical topics treated in some approved text-book, until the time limited for that department expires. The other method is more elementary. It assumes that what the young lawyer especially wants is the faculty and the habit of original investigation. Give him that, and he will have no trouble in finding what he wants in the books, as occasion requires. It therefore aims to put the student in complete possession of those few central principles which command the whole field. Thorough mastery of those principles is given by historical explanation, by Oopious illustration and by systematic drill.
Some of these principles are so comprehensive and fruitful, that one who has grasped them in their fulness of conception has already mastered the sys tem of equity. All else is the application of these grand truths to particular circumstances. (pom eroy.) The more elementary method is the one re?ected in these pages.
