Excerpt from Complete Supplementary Digest of the Decisions of the Supreme Court and the District Courts of Appeal of the State of California and Coffey's Probate Decisions, Vol. 7: Covering the Cases Officially Reported in Volumes 148 to 154 of the Supreme Court Reports, Volume 2 to 9 of the District Courts of Appeal Reports and Volumes 1 to 5 of Coffey's Probate Decisions; Abandonment to Work and Labor On first thought, a preface to a work the plan of which is already so well known to those who will use this volume might seem superfluous, but this Sup plement is more than a mere continuation of Green 's Digest. It includes a digest of all of the five volumes of Judge Cofiey 's valuable decisions. It in cludes many notes from California Supreme Court decisions reported prior to volume 148 of the California Reports which were not included in Green's Digest. The Table of Cases is also amendatory as well as supplementary, and contains a large number of California cases prior to 148 California which were not in cluded in Green's Digest. It will also be noted that in both digest and Table of Cases, cases contained in Green's Digest have been reprinted merely to correct errors. The form, however, is the same as that of Green's Digest. The same classi fications and analyses have been adopted and even the same section numbers have been preserved. The object of this scheme is to enable one to turn at a glance from any given collection of cases in Green's Digest to the more recent cases dealing with the particular subdivision of the subject under investigation. Wherever it was not possible to clmfiy a digest note under a section number found in Green's Digest, a new heading has been made which has been given a new number - usually by amxing the fraction Painstaking efiort has been exercised, however, to place these new sections in the most appropriate positions - that is to say, nearest the most similar section heading. Indeed, many, if not most, of these new sections are but subdivisions or subheads under the main section headings as they appear in Green's Digest.
