Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reported in the Bengal Law Reports, Vols; I to XV, and in the Supplemental Volume of Full Bench Rulings: With an Index of the Names of the Cases The publication of the Bengal Law Reports commenced in August, 1868, and ceased at the end of 1875; and during that period there were published fifteen volumes of current cases, comprizing all the most important rulings of the High Court, and one volume containing the Full Bench rulings of the High Court, from its institution in 1862 up to the commencement of the series of the Bengal Law Reports. These sixteen volumes contain a great number of important cases which are reported nowhere else, and very many others of which a fuller and more accurate report is given than will be found elsewhere. The present work is an endeavour - it is hoped not an unsuccessful one - to facilitate reference to the rulings reported in these sixteen volumes by bringing together under general headings the by no means inconsiderable body of law which those rulings contain. It was intended, also to be useful to the legal profession, as a work in which, under the general headings, the important rulings of the other High Courts might be noted, where they could then be found without the trouble which is often expended in searching for them. I should have been glad if I could have added to the utility of the present work by myself noting up and including in it the rulings of the High Courts of Madras, Bombay, and the North-Western Provinces; for it is undoubted that a good digest of the rulings of all the High Courts in India is much wanted; but I found that to do so would take up more extra time and labor than I could now afford. In the present work the Privy Council cases are indicated by the letters P. C. after the number of the volume, The Full Bench rulings also are marked by the letters F. B., except those in the Supplemental Volume (Sup. Vol), which are all Full Bench cases. A list of the names of the cases has been added. In making up this index of the names of cases, that portion of the name which is a more prefix or title, - (as 'Srimati, ' 'Mussamat, ' 'Rajah, ' 'Maharajah, ' 'Syed, ' and others), - has been omitted at the beginning of the name, and this should be remembered in looking out in the list any case which in the Reports commences with a title or a mere prefix.
