Excerpt from A System of the Law of Marine Insurances: With Three Chapters on Bottomry, on Insurances on Lives, and on Insurances Against Fire

As to the mode of treating the fubjeé't, it will be proper to obferve, that at the head of each chapter, I have {tated the principles, Upon which the cafes on that point depend and then have quoted the cafes themfelves to thew, that they are agreeable and con fonant to the principles advanced. If there are any cafes, which feem to differ from the others, I endeavour to prove, either that they depend upon different principles, or that there are circumftances in them, which make them exceptions to the general rules. In quoting cafes, I have been careful mi mutely. To ftate all the circumftances, and alfo the opinion of the court without any altera tion, or comments of my own; convinced that the utility of a work of this kind con fills 1n the true and accurate account of what the law is, not in idle fpeculations ofa pri vate man, as to what the law ought to be.
