Excerpt from The Railroad Laws of Maine: Containing All Public and Private Acts and Resolves, Relating to Railroads in Said State, With References to Decisions of Supreme Judicial Court, a Digest of the Decisions of the Courts of Said State, on the Subject of Railroads, and Copies of All Mortgag The object of this volume is to present the entire body of the railroad law of this State in a convenient and accessible form. It contains all the acts of the legislature, both public and private, which are printed in forty-five volumes of the annual series of acts and resolves from 1831 to 1875 inclusive, including repealed acts. Where an act has been repealed, amended or considered by the court, such fact is noted in the margin. Also a digest of the decisions of the Supreme Judicial Court, on the subject of railroads found in forty-three volumes of Maine Reports from vol. 21 to vol. 63, inclusive. All the decisions of the court, in which railroads have been parties are not inserted here, but such only as the respective reporters have deemed germane to the subject of railroads, for railroads are often in litigation where no question of railway law arises. Leases, Deeds of Trust, Contracts and Mortgages are collated under the names of each company. An alphabetical list of railroads, in operation in the State precedes the index. Where a charter is given all the laws relating to it follow in order of time. The public laws are printed in the same order. Railroad laws have so multiplied as to embarrass those having occasion to trace them through so many volumes. It is hoped this compilation may abridge their labors.
