Excerpt from Exposition of English Law by English Judges: Compiled for the Use of Layman and Lawyer, From the Most Recent Decisions, (1886-1891) IT were perhaps unnecessary to say of this work that it is not of one' s own making, that it is but a garnering of the fruit of other men's labours still it is but just to acknowledge at the outset one's manifest obligation and indebtedness to others. The science of law is in mundane matters the chief and supreme science, affording to the intellect the highest form of exercise in that sphere. Law regulates men's relations with their fellow-men to such a degree that ignorance of it were a folly, if such ignorance can be avoided. Every man is presumed to know the law, a necessary though often a very inconvenient presumption. No man however knows the law, a fact equally inconvenient, though not equally necessary. This work has been undertaken in the belief that it is a comparatively easy thing for a man either to know the law or to have ready to his hand the means by which he may at once get to know it. English law is the creature, the offspring, the child of the English people themselves and this is the reason why in their heart, and in spite of all its imperfections, they love, honour and obey it.
