The Law and Practice of the Stock Exchange with Appendices: Containing the Rules and Regulations Annotated, and Forms of Instruments Accompanying a Mortgage of Securities (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Law and Practice of the Stock Exchange With Appendices: Containing the Rules and Regulations Annotated, and Forms of Instruments Accompanying a Mortgage of Securities

It has been my endeavour to render the book useful not only to the legal profession, but also to members of the Stock Exchange and to the public generally. Consequently I have cited many of the cases at a length. Which would perhaps have been unnecessary had the book been intended only for those to whom the legal reports are readily accessible.

It is chiefly, too, with a view to the convenience of the public, who generally have little opportunity for acquiring an intimate acquaintance with the manner in which the business of the Stock Exchange is conducted, that the chapter which illustrates the usual method of doing a bargain has been inserted.
