PREFACE

The success of the first edition of Criminal Law and the urgent demand for a new edition has induced the author and publishers to prepare this second edition.

The arrangement found acceptable by the profession in the first edition is continued. The text is arranged in two parts, the Code and Statutory Offenses as before, but the Table of Cases, arranged under subject heads, alphabetically, has been transferred to the forepart of the book.

A new Table of Contents has been prepared, arranging all subjects in Part I and Part II alphabetically.

The new Index will be found at the end of the volume. The Second Edition includes laws enacted by the Session of 1919 and Supreme Court decisions including Volume 288.

Thanking the profession for the generous reception of the book, and trusting the present edition will be found of increased service, I am

March 1, 1920.
