520 _aThe purpose of the Carpentier Lectures is not to furnish text-books for ordinary professional use, and I have there-fore not thought it proper to cite authorities except for a few historical illustrations too lately published to be familiar, or otherwise off the usual lines. Once or twice I have named a leading case for the convenience of learned readers. I do not think I have positively stated anything as law which will not be well known to any such reader, and easily verified if desired; and the same remark applies to the historical data. ---Lawbookshop.net
