Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The justification of the appearance of another volume on the well-worn theme of succession is the belief of the writer that there exists no work which attempts in a small compass to deal at once with the history and principles for which the student looks, and with the practical law essential to the layman, who is pretty sure at some time in his life to be a testator, an executor, or an administrator. Special features are, the notice of Scotch and Irish Law, and – where the subject admits of it – of the Conflict of Laws (the Statuten-Kollision of German jurists), or Private International Law, as some prefer to call it, and a list of the best authorities. The writer trusts that the statement of the law is as accurate as can be expected where limitations of space prevent that complete development of principles by cases which is the object of works of a more technical nature. Cases are seldom cited unless they are of unusual interest or importance. It has not been thought necessary in a book of this character to give a reference to more than one report in which a case occurs.
