The Encyclopedic Digest of Cumulative Supplement BEING A COMPLETE Encyclopedia and Digest of all the Virginia and West Vir- ginia Case Law from Volume 104 to Volume 129 Vir- UNDER THE EDITORIAL SUPERVISION OF THOMAS JOHNSON MICHIE ASSISTED BY BEIRNE STEDMAN. VOLUME I. THE MICHIE COMPANY, LAW PUBLISHERS 1922. PREFACE The Cumulative Supplement has followed the plan of the original work both as to scope and subdivisions of titles, the same analysis lines, numbering and lettering being used. For example: Misnomer as ground. for the abatement of an action was treated in the original digest in the title ABATEMENT, REVIVAL AND SURVIVAL, under the analysis line "Misnomer," II, B, and by referring to the same line in the Supplement similar matter will be found. New matter has been placed in the Supplement where it would have been placed in the original work if it had then been available, such new matter being distinguished by fractional numbered lines. For example: In the title above referred to, there was no authority in the original work on the point of withdrawal from the state as a ground of abatement, but there is such authority in the Supplement treated under "Withdrawal from State," II, K1⁄2. Where "ante" and "post" have been used in cross references, the Cumulative Supplement is meant; "see the title" referring to the original digest. For example: Under the cross references to the title AGENCY, vol. 1, p. 117, there appears: "See the title AGENCY, vol. 1, p. 240, and references there given. In addition, see ante, AFFIDAVITS; post, AGRICULTURE; etc." The reference to the title AGENCY means that title in the original work; while the reference to AFFIDAVITS, AGRICULTURE, etc., means those titles in the Supplement. The Virginia Code of 1919 and Barnes' West Virginia Code, 1918 edition, have been used as the basis for all references to the statute law. |
