Excerpt from A Digest of the Law of Partnership: With an Appendix of Forms

Has shown the convenience of Macaulay's method for the statement of a well settled branch of law by way of private exposition, and has also shown that it may prepare the way for codification. Mr. Chalmers' work, which was first published not long after this, was transformed into a Code (the Bills of Exchange Act) in 1882, and in 1893 the Sale of Goods Act, also prepared by him, codified another important branch of commercial.

Excerpt from A Digest of the Law of Partnership: With an Appendix of Forms

The form of this work is no longer a matter of private choice as to the greater part of it, and therefore no longer needs an apologetic introduction. It will suffice to explain how the book became, in its fifth edition, an edition of an Act of Parliament, and could become so while preserving most of its original substance. In 1877, having been asked to write a concise work on Partnership, I determined to follow Sir James Stephens example in his Digest of the Law of Evidence (an example which then stood alone), and to frame the book on the pattern of the Anglo-Indian Codes. It then seemed to me possible that Parliament might be induced to adopt Macaulays invention of adding authoritative illustrations to the enacting text of a code; I call it Macaulays, for I have not found in earlier writers, including Bentham, more than slight rudiments of the idea, and its first distinct appearance was certainly in the draft of the Indian Penal Code.
