Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Executions in Civil Cases, and of Proceedings in Aid and Restraint Thereof, Vol. 1 The prejudice against the increase of law books is un questionably great. So well is this fact understood, that an author is expected to introduce his book by an attempt to justify its existence. Ican offer this apology for the production of each of my prior works: that it treated of subjects of prime importance and frequent recurrence, not recently nor extensively considered by any other writer. I long hoped that the same apology might be urged in favor of this book; and that any asperities which might be aroused by observing defects in its execution would be mollified by the remembrance that it was the only effort which had been made to collect, arrange, and interpret a mass of authorities so vast that their numbers bore nu questionable evidence of the difficulty and importance of the subject with which they were connected. When this book was about half completed, I was de prived of a portion of my coveted apology by the publica tion of a work on the same topic. My first impulse was to discontinue my own labors. But a work on Execu tions was so clearly a sequel to my work on Judgments; my thought and research in the preparation of the latter were so evidently of a character to fit me for the proseou tion of the former; and, beyond all, I was so thoroughly interested in my theme, - that I determined to proceed. The result of this determination is now before the reader. If, after a patient examination of my work, he can truly say that there was no need of its publication, and that it\'iii preface TO the first edition.
