Excerpt from Elements of the Law of Torts for the Use of Students The classification of Mr. Harriman shows the spirit and the hand of the reformer; it Shows a de sire to turn the law, wherever practicable, from haphazard and devious lines into a straight-forward course. In other words, it has logic in view as an object to be approached as nearly as possible. Not withstanding the dangers of it, I am not willing to allow it to appear that I am not in sympathy with such an aim, however closely my own work may follow the beaten pathways.
