Excerpt from A Digest of the Principles of the Law of Trusts and Trustees

IT is intended in this work to place before the Profession, in as concise a form as the nature of the subject permits, the various principles which guide Courts of Equity in dealing With What is probably the most important branch of their jurisprudence. In adopting the title I have chosen, I am aware that, scientifically speaking, the book is not a digest in the sense in which that term is used by jurists; but it is hoped that by the process of condensation, and by the elimination of matters of comment and criticism, the term may not be found inappropriate. A perfect digest in the sense referred to, on so extensive a subject, would be a work embracing so large an area, and involving matters of detail so complex and diverse in character, that the object of this book, as stated above, would in a great measure be defeated by seeking to supply such a work.
