Excerpt from Commentaries on the Law of Promissory Notes, and Guaranties of Notes, and Checks on Banks and Bankers: With Occasional Illustrations From the Commercial Law of the Nations of Continental Europe The subjects of the Guaranties of Notes and of Checks have been added, as becoming daily of more use and significance in commercial dealings. The latter is treated briefly, as indeed few doctrines of a peculiar nature belong to it. The former has been discussed more at large; and the materials thereof are mainly drawn from American jurisprudence, since in England the contract of guaranty, as applied to Notes, has not, as yet, furnished many occasions for litigation or decision. I cannot better conclude this Preface than by a quotation from the Commentaries of my venerable friend, Mr. Chancellor Kent, himself at once a fine model of the judicial character, and an illustrious example of what genius, and learning, and devotion to all the branches of jurisprudence can accomplish.
