Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Historical Sketch of Civil Procedure Among the Romans
My original aim was to dwell upon the historical features in this branch of their legal institutions, and to exhibit its steady progress from the ancient rude symbolism of the Twelve Tables, to the more complex technicality of the Imperial Code, rather than to attempt to make a treatise on actions at law.
