Excerpt from The Law of Passenger and Freight Elevators
Since the publication of the first edition of this limited treatise upon a special subject, the frequent requests for references to the late cases suggested the propriety of a new edition. In preparing the first edition reliance was misplaced upon the general digests, which have very poorly classified their notes upon this subject. Consequently, a number of cases were omitted. In preparing this edition, I have endeavored to revise and enlarge my former work, as well as add the subsequent cases. I trust that its use may save my brethren at the bar much tedious research and to some extent relieve the difficulty of collating the authorities upon this subject.
