Excerpt from A Handbook of Average: For the Use of Merchants, Agents, Ship-Owners and Others, With a Chapter on Arbitration

To be useful, is the design of the present volume, and the desire of its writer. He proposes to himself no higher aim than this. He attempts to be of ser vice in two ways - First, by giving a clear and prac tical view Of the subject, so that persons consulting the book need not err greatly in their proceedings: and with this intention the matter is divided in a manner easy for reference;-secondly, by discussing some doubtful or anomalous practices, in the hope that by calling attention to such discrepancies, a more exact and consistent rule may some daybe attained. He does not anticipate that he shall at all curtail the practice of professional Average Adjusters by such a Hand book, any more than the numerous text-writers on law supersede the employment of barristers and solicitors. Even when the general bearing of laws is known, there remains the practical difficulty of applying them to the particular instances; and this can only be done by those persons who devote themselves to the study and practice of their profession.
