Every self-respecting law faculty should include chapter 11 in its curriculum, especially in procedural law, torts and property law:
"[I]n instituting a suit at law we cannot get around the fact that in a measure you are both plaintiff and defendant. I believe those are the terms usually employed to designate the two parties to a suit, except in the case of an appeal, when there is an appellant and a repellant if my memory serves me."

I enjoyed this ghost stories (yes it a nested tale of 'spooks'). By and large, it is a fun read, entertaining and speedy.
