Excerpt from Reports of Cases Adjudged and Determined in the Court of Chancery, of the State of Delaware, Vol. 1: Under Authority of the General Assembly The reporter attempted to verify the citations of author ities made in the arguments of counsel and opinions of the Court, but not with full success. The references to adjudged cases in the Chancery Reports were tested, and are believed to be correct as printed but the text books of the period covered by these reports have, many of them, since passed through successive editions, and the original paging cannot be traced. The effort to find the corres ponding pages in later editions proved so unsatisfactory, that it became necessary to abandon it, and to leave the references as they stand in the manuscripts.
