EDITOR'S PREFACE

ΤΟ

THE TENTH

EDITION.

I am grateful for the opportunity to present to my professional brethren a Tenth Edition of my "Notes to the Code of Procedure." By the teachings of a long experience, industriously applied, I flatter myself I have exhausted every resource in producing a complete and useful work. My first edition of these "Notes" was published in 1851, and I have edited every subsequent edition. If not the first to conceive, I was at least the first to execute, the idea of an Annotated Code. The favor the work has found with the profession evidences that it met a general want.

Thus far my pecuniary compensation has been very inadequate; but I have consoled myself for the absence of a money reward in the hope that I was securing the approbation of those for whom I labored. It has been a disappointment to find that some, having a good word to say in favor of my work, not only ignore me, but give the credit to others by name. I ask no favor, but I wish it understood that I alone am entitled to whatever of censure or praise the following sheets may merit. JOHN TOWNSHEND.

129 FULTON STREET, NEW YORK,

July, 1870.
