Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on the Law Relating to Trustees, Their Powers, Duties, Privileges and Liabilities The existence and established character of Mr. Lewin's very valuable Treatise on the Law of Trusts and Trustees, may seem to call for some apology for the appearance of the present work. It might, perhaps, be suflicient for the writer to state that his own work had been commenced previously to the appearance of that of Mr. Lewin; but, in truth, it will be seen on examination that the object, as well as the arrangement, of the two treatises is very dis similar in many material respects. The present work, as appears from its title, is written principally for the information and guidance of Trustees in the discharge of their office, and the Law of Trusts has not been gone into further than appeared absolutely essential for the development of that object. However, even with this limited purpose in view, a Treatise on' the Law relating to Trustees involved, in a greater or less degree, the consideration of the whole Law of Real and Personal Property; and the difficulty of effecting a clear and continuous arrangement, which should embrace all the branches of the subject, is proportionably great. The defects on this point, as well as many of those attending the execution of the work, are sufficiently apparent even to the writer himself; but he feels that those who will discover the imperfections must also be sensible of the difficulty of avoiding them, and will, therefore, be disposed to make the requisite allowances, and with this conviction he has greater confidence in bringing his work before the public.
