Synopsis

Excerpt from A Triennial Key to the Current Index of Indian Cases, Vol. 1: Being a Consolidated Abridgement of the Cases for 1905, 1906 and 1907; Criminal

What the reader, in his anxiety to find out an authority for the case before him, practically does is, I believe, not to read through everypurport in full, whether or not it applies to the case before him, but to skip over the catchwords at the top of each purport and see whether the points mentioned in such catchwords have any bearing at all upon the case before him. The catch-words are, in fact, the key to what is con tained in the purport below them, and it is only when he finds, in the catch-words, the points necessary for him that he has to look into the purports below for fuller information. From this point of view, there fore, what really is essential, in the interests Of the reader, is nothing more than a collection of the catch-words of the various abstracts that have appeared in the yearly digests, together with their cross-references, rather than a collection of the summaries themselves en bloc. Supposing you wish to find out an appropriate case on S. 145 Of the criminal procedure code OR hindu Law (adoption), as the case may be, you have simply to turn, in the Key, to the heading, criminal procedure code, S. 145 or to the heading hindu Law (adoption), as the case may be, and you are sure to find out the case you require, with the volume and column of the Current Index of 1905, 1906, or 1907, (i, II, or III), printed at the end Of the catch-words,and you find the fuller and more detailed informations in the volume and column of the particular Current Indexes indicated at the end of the catch-words, or if, without referring to the Current Index, you wish to have recourse to the original reports themselves, you may do so.

A collection of catch-words, and catch-words alone, so arranged, grouped and classified as to lead one to point his finger with ease to the very case he requires, the volumes and the pages of the original Reports, as also the volumes and pages Of the several Current Indexes, will, I venture to think, on the one band, serve as an appropriate book, cheap and handy in itself, whereas, on the other, the reader may be enabled to retain the Current Indexes once bought, without consigning them to the waste paper basket, and buying, in their place, a fresh consolidaetd Index at an extra cost.
