To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Be that as it may, it certainly cannot be said that our law of reason is always expounded with sufficient regard to relevant facts. Reasoning of the judges may not be ' in the air ' ; it is generally legitimate reasoning on the facts upon which it professes to pro- ceed. It may be sound in logic ; but the objection is that the judges have shut out inquiry in many cases into the habits or practice of men in the par- ticular situation, and that the inquir)* properly pur- sued would have brought t...o light facts which would have more or less vitiated the reasoning. There is ground for the objection ; it applies particularly to branches of law which have sprung from the custom of merchants, such as the law of negotiable instru- ments, the law of insurance, and the law of partner- ship. Judges reason, in these cases, from common law doctrines of contract, a subject with which negoti- able instruments and insurance particularly are much SCIENTIFIC METHOD IN LAW 183 at variance ; so much so, it should seem, that judges should at once be put upon their guard.
