Excerpt from An Exposition of the Principles of Pleading Under the Codes of Civil Procedure
To gather from the mass of enactments and decisions the established principles of pleading, and to distribute them in clear synthetic order to trace the origin and development of these principles to illustrate their use in the application of substantive law to operative facts and to discover the philosophy of this procedure,-is a work as formidable as it is needful. I doubt not I have come short of its full aecom plishment but I indulge the hope that, in some degree, my labor may tend to restore the topic to its proper place as an educational branch of the law; that it may help the student to an intelligent and comprehensive grasp of the subject that it may tend to ground the pleader upon reason and principle, instead of dogma and precedent; and that it may contribute to accuracy and dispatch in judicial procedure.
