Trial of Legal Issues in Injunction Against Tort

This essay appeared in a casebook on Equitable Remedies that was used for years in mimeographed form at the University of Michigan Law School. It was never prepared for final publication by Professor Durfee himself, but the numerous changes made in his own personal copy indicate that he had given much thought to the subject. Professor John P. Dawson who had collaborated with Professor Durfee has incorporated these changes in the present text. More changes might have been made by Professor Durfee if he had planned to publish it. The editors believe that as it stands it deserves a wider audience

The British Colonial System

Regarding the subject, Professor Cooley writes: In a note to the first book of these Commentaries (p.109), the Colonial System of Great Britain is spoken of as the grandest in extent and power that the world has ever known. A more detailed account of the system, and of the countries and places embraced within it, than was given in the place referred to, will justify the statement there made, and at the same time will give us particulars of British Colonial government in all its varieties

Portrait of Professor Breidenbaugh

People often do not see what is right in front of them; objects that are passed by everyday are often unnoticed. People are not necessarily unobservant, but are probably more absorbed with their own activities. One object that is hidden in plain sight on the Gettysburg College campus is the portrait of Professor Edward S. Breidenbaugh that hangs in the Science Center. The name Breidenbaugh is commonly known amongst the students at Gettysburg because of the building in his name, Breidenbaugh Hall. However, the history behind Breidenbaugh and his portrait is not as commonly known as the name, but is important in understanding his influence at Gettysburg College.

Police Interrogation and Confessions

Excerpts taken from and based on Professor Kamisar\u27s introduction to his book Police Interrogation and Confessions: Essays in Law and Policy (University of Michigan Press, 1980).These essays, written over two decades, constitute an historical overview of the Supreme Court\u27s efforts to deal with the police interrogation-confessions problem from preMirando days to the present time and provide provocative analyses of the issues that have confronted the Court along the way. Before deciding to publish a collection of Kamisar\u27s essays on confessions, the University of Michigan Press asked for evaluations from two of the current leading writers on the subject, Professor Joseph D. Grano of Wayne State University Law School and Professor Welsh S. White of the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. Professor Grano wrote: These essays, singularly or as a whole, are unrivaled in the literature . ... The starting point for a student of the area . . . . Required reading for anyone contemplating the directions the Court should take in the future . Professor White commented: There really is no competing work in the field . .. . No one explores fundamental issues of constitutional law more intensely and more incisively. No one writes with more power and clarity

The study of cholera and Max von Pettenkofer`s visit to Malta in 1868

An "eminent natural philosopher", Dr. Max Pettenkofer, came to Malta to study the manifestations of cholera in the Island. It appears that what prompted Pettenkofer to come to Malta was the fact that the cholera epidemics of Gibraltar and of Malta had been closely followed and discussed in Munich, and his opponents had quoted these two places as illustrations of the fallacies of his soil-moisture theory. The gist of his study is that a scanty rainfall in the first five months of the year predisposed the Island to cholera epidemics but an abundant rainfall during the same period diminishes considerably the chances of cholera outbreaks on a large scale. Pettenkofer's speculations met with some opposition in Malta, particularly by Dr. A. Ghio and also by the most outspoken critic Dr. Gavino Gulia, Professor of Forensic Medicine and Natural History at our University. Dr. Gulia was convinced of the infectiousness of cholera and in support of his stand he reported the death of a follower of Pettenkofer, a Dr. Obermeyer. The latter had carried some post-mortem specimens and faeces from choleric patients to his bedroom for microscopical examination when he was attacked by the illness.peer-reviewe

Maurice F. Neufeld

[Excerpt] Maurice F. Neufeld was a respected scholar, beloved teacher, and one of the two founding faculty members of the School of Industrial and Labor Relations at Cornell University. Jean McKelvey and Maurice were appointed the first faculty members of Cornell’s newly created ILR School in 1945 by its founding dean, Irving Ives. Mr. Ives left the university shortly thereafter for the United States Senate. Maurice served as secretary, then chair, of the committee that governed the school between Ives’s resignation and the appointment of Martin P. Catherwood as Dean of the School in 1947. One of Maurice’s most valuable contributions to the school was during this formative period in its history. By virtue of his dignity and erudition, as well as his considerable political skills, Maurice greatly facilitated the acceptance of the initially controversial multidisciplinary ILR School into the larger university community
