APPENDIX D
Shipping the Dead
THE following curious passage from Gervase of Tilbury may not prove uninteresting when treating of the transport of the dead by boats.
Otia Imperialia, Decisio iii. c. 90.
Insigne mirum ac ex divina virtute miraculum audi, Princeps Sacratissime. Caput regni Burgundionum, quod Arelatense dicitur, civitas est Arelas, antiquissimis dotata privilegiis. Hanc ordinatus ab Apostolis Petro et Paulo, Trophimus, qui … deliberavit cœmeterium solemne ad meridianam urbis partem constituere, in quo omnium orthodoxorum corpora sepulturæ traderentur, ut, sicut ab Arelatensi ecclesia tota Gallia fidei sumsit exordium, ita et mortui in Christo undecunque advecti sepulturæ communis haberent beneficium. Facta itaque consecratione solemni per manus sanctissimorum antistitum ad Orientalem portam, ubi nunc est ecclesia ab ipsis in honorem B. Virginis consecrata, illis Christus, pridem in carne familiariter agnitus, apparuit, opus eorum sua benedictione profundens, dato cœmeterio ac illis sepeliendis munere, ut quicunque inibi sepelirentur, nullas in cadaveribus suis paterentur diabolicas illusiones. Ex hujusmodi ergo Dominicæ benedictionis munere, apud omnes ​majoris auctoritatis Galliarum principes ac clericos inolevit, quod maxima patentum pars illuc sepulturam habent, et quidam in plaustris, alii in curribus, nonnulli in equis, plurimi per dependulum fluentis Rhodani ad cœmeterium Campi Elisii deferebantur. Est ergo omni admiratione dignissimum, quod nullus in thecis positus mortuus ultimos civitatis Arelatensis terminos, quos Rochetam nominant, quantalibet vi ventorum aut tempestate compulsus præterit, sed infra semper subsistens in aqua rotatur, donec applicet, aut ad ripam fluminis ductus cœmeterio sacro inferatur. Mirandis magis miranda succedunt, quæ oculis conspeximus sub innumera utriusque sexus hominum multitudine. Solent, ergo præmisimus, mortui in doliis bituminatis ac in thecis corpora mortuorum a longinquis regionibus fluminis Rhodani dimitti cum pecunia sigillata, quæ cœmeterio tam sacro, nomine eleemosynæ, confertur. Uno aliquo die, nondum decennio delapso, dolium cum mortuo suo descendit inter illud angustum, quod ex alternis ripis castrum Tarasconense et castrum Belliquadri prospectant. Exilientes adolescentes Belliquadri dolium ad terram trahunt, et relicto mortuo pecuniam reconditam rapiunt. Depulsum dolium inter impetuosi amnis fluctus subsistit, et nec vi fluminis præcipitis nec juvenum impulsibus potuit descendere, verum rotans et in se revolvens, eosdem circinabat fluminis fluctus. … Tandem, restituto censu, confestim mortuus sine omni impellentis adjutorio viam aggreditur, et infra modicam horam apud civitatem Arelatensem applicans, sepulturæ honorifice traditur.

United States Supreme Court
59 U.S. 109
Curtis v. Petitpain
The record certified in this cause consists of 'an agreed statement of facts,' which the parties submitted to the court on the rules taken by the plaintiffs against the defendants, and the judgment rendered thereon, and a judgment rendered on a motion for a new trial, being the proceedings after the submission of the case.
The case stated is, that the plaintiffs recovered a judgment against Victor Feste in the circuit court of the United States. That an execution issued thereon, and a seizure was made of immovable as well as movable property; which was sold, and the proceeds held by the marshal.
While these proceedings were pending, Madame Feste recovered, in one of the state courts, a decree against her husband, Victor Feste, for the separation of property and the amount of dowry brought in marriage; and thereupon served a notice upon the marshal, claiming to have satisfaction of her legal mortgage, in preference to the execution creditor, from the moneys in his hands, and obtained a rule from the court requiring him to answer her claim. The plaintiffs, upon their part, (as the case states,) also obtained a rule, to enforce the payment of the money to them on their execution. To settle these conflicting claims was the object of the agreed case thus submitted to the court.
Two questions arise in limine, either of which is, in our opinion, decisive of this cause: 1st. That this is not such a transcript as will satisfy the 11th and 31st rules of this court, under the decision of Keene v. Whittaker, 13 Pet. 459; and, 2d, that this is not such a judgment as this court can re examine, according to the principle of Bayard v. Lombard, 9 How. 530. And we agree with the defendants upon both these questions.
The cause is dismissed with costs.

THIS case was brought up by writ of error from the circuit court of the United States for the eastern district of Louisiana. It is stated in the opinion of the court.
It was argued by Mr. Taylor, for the plaintiffs in error, and Mr. Benjamin, for the defendants.
The point of practice, upon which the case went off, was raised by Mr. Benjamin, who contended that the transcript was not such a complete record as was required by the 11th and 31st rules of court.
The points made relating to the merits of the cause are omitted.

# Cyclopedia of Painting/Turpentine

TURPENTINE.
Turpentine does not burn the paint as many believe. Turpentine evaporates the slowest of any of the volatile paint solvents. It is used to give ease in working, form depth of penetration and assist in drying. Use turpentine liberally in priming or middle coats. When used in undercoatings, turpentine reduces the gravity of the oil and assists in opening the pores of the wood, thus allowing of greater depth of penetration. If used in middle coats or for recoating old surfaces, it assists in penetrating the previous coating and materially helps to cut the oil which is the gloss of the paint, leaving a better tooth for the binding of the finishing coat.
Never substitute gasoline or benzine for turpentine, they are not substitutes. Gasoline is not a paint solvent, it is the lightest of the petroleum products and worthless as a substitute for the use to which turpentine is put. Benzine and naphtha, while better paint solvents than gasoline, are light petroleum products of high specific gravity, reducing rapidly and evaporating quickly, they do not penetrate but evaporate on the surface, making the paint work hard, retarding the brushing out of paint and preventing working the pigment into the pores of the wood, leaving too much pigment and a dangerous undercoat without sufficient penetration or binder.
Study the surface to be painted and use turpentine in the reduction according to the condition of the surface. If new work, constructed of hard, close-grained lumber, more turpentine must be used than if constructed of soft, open-grained lumber of quick absorption. The liberal use of turpentine in priming improperly seasoned lumber or lumber ​which contains moisture will assist in producing better penetration.
In repainting an old surface, the first coat must be reduced with turpentine according to the porosity of the surface. If a hard, flinty surface, much more turpentine must be used than if porous or weather-beaten. The mixture should range from flat, half flat to semi-gloss. Never apply a heavy coating of full oil reduction.
Paint which has become fatty and gummy can be partially remedied by the addition of a small amount of turpentine. When painting in hot, humid weather, a small amount of turpentine added to the finishing coat will aid in hardening the paint.

United States Supreme Court
394 U.S. 721
Davis v. Mississippi
Argued: Feb. 26 and 27, 1969. --- Decided: April 22, 1969
Mr. Justice BLACK, dissenting.
The petitioner here was convicted of a brutal rape of a woman, committed in her own home. Fingerprints of the petitioner, left on the window sill of her home, were the clinching evidence bringing about petitioner's conviction. The Court, by once more expanding the reach of the judicially declared exclusionary rule, ostensibly resting on the Fourth Amendment, holds the fingerprint evidence constitutionally inadmissible and thereby reverses petitioner's conviction. The rape occurred on December 2, 1965, and, as was their duty, the police authorities began to make a searching investigation the morning of December 3. The raped woman was originally able to describe the rapist only as a young Negro male. With this evidence the police proceeded to interrogate a number of young Negroes on the streets, at their homes, or at the police station, and then permitted them to go on their way. The petitioner was among those so interrogated on December 3, at which time his fingerprints were made. The fingerprints were again taken on December 14. The record does not show that petitioner or any other young man who was questioned and fingerprinted over made the slightest objection. Apparently all of them cooperated with the police in efforts to find out who had committed the rape. This case is but one more in an ever-expanding list of cases in which this Court has been so widely blowing up the Fourth Amendment's scope that its original authors would be hard put to recognize their creation. For this most unnecessary expansion of the Amendment, the Court is compelled to put its chief reliance on a Court of Appeals decision, Bynum v. United States, 104 U.S.App.D.C. 368, 262 F.2d 465. I think it is high time this Court, in the interest of the administration of criminal justice, made a new appraisal of the language and history of the Fourth Amendment and cut it down to its intended size. Such a judicial action would, I believe, make our cities a safer place for men, women, and children to life.
I dissent from this reversal.

Mr. Justice HARLAN, concurring.
I join the opinion of the Court, with one reservation. The Court states in dictum that, because fingerprinting may be scheduled for a time convenient to the citizen, 'the general requirement that the authorization of a judicial officer be obtained in advance of detention would seem not to admit of any exception in the fingerprinting context.' Ante, this page. I cannot concur in so sweeping a proposition. There may be circumstances, falling short of the 'dragnet' procedures employed in this case, where compelled submission to fingerprinting would not amount to a violation of the Fourth Amendment even in the absence of a warrant, and I would leave that question open.
Mr. Justice BLACK, dissenting.

Argued: Feb. 26 and 27, 1969. --- Decided: April 22, 1969
Mr. Justice STEWART, dissenting.
I do not disagree with the Court's conclusion that the petitioner was arrested and detained without probable cause. But it does not follow that his fingerprints were inadmissible at the trial.
Fingerprints are not 'evidence' in the conventional sense that weapons or stolen goods might be. Like the color of a man's eyes, his height, or his very physiognomy, the tips of his fingers are an inherent and unchanging characteristic of the man. And physical impressions of his fingertips can be exactly and endlessly reproduced.
We do not deal here with a confession wrongfully obtained or with property wrongfully seized-so tainted as to be forever inadmissible as evidence against a defendant. We deal, instead, with 'evidence' that can be identically reproduced and lawfully used at any subsequent trial. #fn-s-s
I cannot believe that the doctrine of Mapp v. Ohio, 367 U.S. 643, 81 S.Ct. 1684, 6 L.Ed.2d 1081, requires so useless a gesture as the reversal of this conviction.
