Excerpt from The Commentaries on the Laws of England of Sir William Blackstone, Vol. 1 In the preparation of this Edition of Sir William Blackstone's Commentaries, the same rule has been followed as in the first revision of the Work by the present Editor. He has altered the text, where the text required or seemed to require alteration; but he has in no case omitted anything which could usefully be retained. He may have preserved much which is of antiquarian interest only; but, if so, this will, he hopes, be esteemed an error in the right direction. He can repeat confidently the statement he made in reference to his first attempt to adapt the Commentaries to the present state of the Law - that no trouble or labour has been wanting on his part to fulfil properly the responsible duty he has undertaken.
