PREFACE.

His Honour Judge Yate Lee in his lifetime and the

present editor, thinking that the number of reported cases

since the last edition of their joint production on Bank

ruptcy would render new edition on the same lines incon

veniently bulky, decided that the present editor should

attempt to provide substitute, re-writing throughout what

appeared to him worth preserving of the former materials

in reference to the law and practice in bankruptcy proper.

The notes which follow are the result of the decision.

The present editor has endeavoured to preserve all that

seemed valuable in the former book with as little alteration

as was consistent with the plan. But as he has to accept

sole responsibility for the selection, as well as for the form

in which the selected matter appears, he has hesitated to

style the notes new edition.

The Index is the work of Mr. A. B. Kennedy, of Lincoln's

Inn, to whom the editor is also indebted for valuable

assistance with the proofs.

The Table of Cases, giving references to contemporary

re]>orts, has been compiled by Mr. F. C. Phillips, in the

employ of the publishers.
