Excerpt from The Rule Against Perpetuities Although only eight years have passed since the publica tion of the second edition, about three hundred and eighty new cases on the Rule against Perpetuities (not including those in New York) have been decided during that time, many of them of considerable interest; and my views have altered or developed on several points. Notwithstanding an increase in the average contents of a page, there has been a material addition to the number of pages of the text and of the Appendix. If this had been the first edition of this work, I should un doubtedly have adopted a more consecutive and compact ar rangement in several respects than it now exhibits. It has seemed to me, however, to be advantageous to the reader to retain in the present edition a form which shows the develop ment not only of the law but of the author's views during a period of twenty-eight years.
