Synopsis
Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Usury, Pawns or Pledges, and Maritime Loans
I have endeavored in this work to examine, carefully and fully, the several subjects which I have treated, and bring out with clear ness and accuracy the law and principles by which they are respectively governed. Part I occupies 446 pages, in which the subject of usury is exhaustively treated, the constituents of usury clearly defined, the statutes in force in the several States relating to interest succinctly stated, and the principal authorities upon the subject, both in England and this country, thoroughly con sidered, and the doctrine of the cases accurately stated; thereby furnishing a precedent for almost every conceivable usurious case which may arise. Part II consists of 233 pages, in which the contract of pawn or pledge is fully considered, the proper parties to a pawn or pledge, their rights, obligations and liabilities, and the final disposition of the subject of the pawn or pledge, are designed to be plainly and accurately stated and defined. Part III consists of little less than 100 pages, and is devoted to a con cise discussion of the subject of maritime loans, and the law relat ing to bottomry and respondentia; and the doctrine of the authorities upon the subject is briefly laid down.
