Excerpt from The Revised Reports, Vol. 36: Being a Republication of Such Cases in the English Courts of Common Law and Equity, From the Year 1785, as Are Still of Practical Utility; 1831-1833, 1. Clark and Finnelly; 1. Mylene and Keen; 2. Barnewall and Adolphus; 1. Dowling, P. C
Quite a good number of familiar cases, in constant use for proof or illustration of the points which they left settled, will greet the learned reader in this volume. For the sale of goods we have a classical case on warranty, Street v. Blay, p. 626, and one on independent promises, Withers v. Reynolds, p. 782. Good v. Cheesman, p. 574, is the leading authority on the doctrine of compositions with creditors, and disposes with legal elegance as well as practical good sense of the apparent difficulty about finding the consideration for each creditor accepting less than the full amount of his debt.
