Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Essay on Obligations: For Lawyers, Students and Laymen
The reader will find at the bottom of each page the name of the author, and the portion of the work from which the matter in the text has been translated. I say translated and not quoted because all the works upon the Ciril Laws of Lower Canada are either French or Latin. The Old and modern authorities upon the Laws of France, the Code Napoleon, and consequently upon our own Code, have written in the French language, while the very first principles of those laws were given in the works of the ancient Roman jurists in the, Latin language.
