Hindu Law

D. Mayne J.

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Ix preparing the present edition of what was originally called Elements of Hindu law, the author has no acknowledgments to make, in any quarter, for assistance, or suggestion; though invitation, and even solicitation, on his part, has not been wanting; as, independent of other re ference, appears by the concluding paragraph of the Pre face to the first. In this respect, the author has been careful not to be deficient in his duty. In a work of the kind, it was imperative. Conscious how ungrateful is the subject - bowing to the almost universal indifference as to what regards India, further than as our own direct interests are involved, the author is not disappointed, - not having been sanguine in his expectations -and the' failure of all encourage ment of the sort, in the progress of such preparation, will have had no other effect, than that of stimulating his care and diligence, toward attaining his object, in the culti vation of his own resources. The principal change in the present edition is in the arrangement of the matter; producing a different succes sion of chapters, with a reduction of them from thirteen to twelve. This has occasioned parts to be written over again. With considerable alteration; and these so incorporated and connected with the composition, as it originally stood, that, in justice to the purchasers and possessorsrhi preface.
