Excerpt from Manual of the Law of Evidence, for the Use of Students: Being an Abridgement of the Sixth Edition of the Author's Larger Treatise Upon the Same Subject The general arrangement of topics is the same as that in the sixth edition of my larger work; and in order to facilitate reference thereto, the corresponding pages in the main work are indicated by figures in heavy type at the heads of chapters and elsewhere. A Preliminary Outline of the Subject has been added, which it is hoped may prove useful to students; and the cases and statutes are brought down to March, 1921.
