Excerpt from The Principles of the Law Relating to the Discharge of Contracts But this rule applies to the contract only so long as it remains executory; for when it has become executed wholly or in part by the passage of a consideration, it cannot be discharged by a simple agreement, but only by performance of its terms, by a release under seal, or by an accord and satisfaction.2 TO illustrate - If A, in consideration of certain services to be rendered by B, promises to build a house for B, before the work has been begun the parties may release each other from all the obligations which they have incurred, by simply agreeing to abandon the contract. But if A entered upon the work and built the house, an agreement to rescind the contract would be without consideration; A would surrender his claim to B's services, but B would give nothing in return. So, if the contract were broken one party would become entitled to a right of action against the other, and a mere waiver of the right without any consideration, or the formality of a seal, would not be binding. In England promissory notes and bills of exchange form an exception to the rule which we have stated. The obligations created by such instruments may be discharged by express waiver, without any considera tion.3 The reason for this difference, which is given by baron parke in the case of Foster Dawber, '1 is, that bills of exchange are governed by the law mer chant, which was imported into England from coun tries where a debt might be released by express words.

Excerpt from Principles of the Law of Contract The purpose of this book is to give a complete and concise statement of the fundamental principles of the Law of Contract. Practically every principle, as applied by the courts generally in all States, is treated in this volume. It gives the starting point, with citations of the principal cases for further study and research work. The underlying principles of Contract Law are the same in all jurisdictions but the courts in different jurisdictions fre quently vary as to their application in particular instances. NO pretense is made to developing, harmonizing and dis cussing conflicting decisions. A discussion Of the contro verted questions will be found in the cases cited in the text. Their consideration in this work would defeat the very purpose for which it is prepared, - succinctness and a ready reference to leading authorities. Although in the citations a preference is given to New York cases, it is not to be inferred that the law as stated is applicable only to New York. The cited authorities will be found to con tain references to authorities in other jurisdictions. Num erous citations of cases are purposely avoided. The book is in no sense a digest Of contract law.

Excerpt from Rescission of Contracts: A Treatise on the Principles Governing the Rescission, Discharge, Avoidance and Dissolution of Contracts Sir Frederick Pollock was good enough to find space in the Law Quarterly Review of October 1912 and January 1913 for an article written by myself, dealing in a general way with the main question discussed in these pages. In that article I was guilty of the use of the general term rescission as denoting discharge by breach, ' but my excuse must b' the conventional use of that term as covering not only the whole field Of rescission properly so called, but as including avoidance, ' discharge, ' and dis solution of. Contracts. If the conclusions I have offered to the Profession do not convince, I trust that they may at least help.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Principles of the Law of Damages The general purpose of this new book on the law of Damages is like the purpose of the book on the law of Contracts by the same author, to give a complete treatise on the subject in a small volume. All the fundamental principles of the law of Damages are summarized in rules, or propositions of'law. Explanations are given for these propositions of law, with reasons therefor, together with criticisms thereof, whenever in the judgment of the author the rules are the subject of criticism. In order to further elucidate the propositions, copious illustrations are given, showing the application of the same. Under such a plan it is hoped that anyone reading the book will obtain a thorough understanding of the law of Damages. For the convenience of the reader the propositions of law, explanations and illustrations, are printed in different type. The illustrations used are founded upon the cases selected by Professor Beale and by Professor Mechem for their case books on Damages and upon such other cases as the author has deemed it expedient to incorporate in the vdume.

Excerpt from A Summary of the Principles of the Law of Simple Contracts IT may cause some little surprise when it is seen that, notwithstanding the many able works on the Law of Contracts that have been published, I have ventured to add yet another volume to that already formidable array of legal literature. The reason why I have done so is, because this branch of the Law, however diversely treated, still remains unreduced, whether by means of Articles and Notes, or Rules and Sub rules, or otherwise, into the form of a Concise Sum mary or Digest; and in the present work I have hoped, to a certain extent, to supply the want thus existing.
