Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Railroads in Pennsylvania, Including the Law Relating to Street Railways, 1893, Vol. 1 of 2 In a State where there have been already published over five hundred volumes of reports, text-books based npon the law as declared by the State courts are an appropriate and almost mafia! Aid to every practitioner. Such works are also becoming more and more necessary owing to the increas ing tendency of our courts to look only to Pennsylvania de cisions for precedents. In the particular subject of railroad law no State has so completely covered the field as Pennsyl vania. Almost every legal proposition on the subject may be supported and illustrated by cases from our own reports. In some particular subjects the variety of cases is astonishingly great, and extends to almost every conceivable combination of circumstances. The chapters on Stock Subscriptions, and some of the chapters on Negligence in the present work are illustrations of this.
