recognized as standard authority in the court over which I preside, and its usefulness
increases as the successive editions appear.
The Supreme Court of Va., Oct., 1886.—In our opinion it is the best in the English
language. We not only recognize it as standard authority, but deem it invaluable.—
Signed by all the Judges.

other States, including New York, Ill., Neb., Minn., N. C., Ga., Ind., Mo., O., Penn., &c.
