Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Corrupt and Illegal Practices, Prevention Acts, 1883 and 1895: With Notes of Judicial Decisions, and With Short Introductory Chapters on Election Petitions Under These Acts, Election Contest Under These Acts, the General Policy and Effect of These Acts and the Parliamentary Common Law of Agency Since the last edition I have myself served the office of an election agent, and it was my duty in that office to provide for the organisation of the election expenses and for the employment and, where lawful, for the remuneration of somewhere about a hundred persons in connection with the work of the election. The result of all this has cc been somewhat to modify some of the opinions expressed in the last edition. Chapter I. is new. The form for an election 5 petition is much fuller than any which I have seen elsewhere; and the reasons why so full a form is to be preferred appear from the chapter itself. The abstract of the actual particulars delivered in the Montgomery Boroughs case of 1892 made by me at the time is another feature special to this work, which it is hoped may be useful to practitioners. Chapter 11. is also new, and is written from an Election Agents point of view. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
