h.sgrs LITTLE & BRowN: Gentlemen--I am
much pleased to learn that you are engaged In
publishing a revised edition of Strahan's transla-
ton of DOMAT ON CIVIL LAW. No work in
the English language, on the same SUBJECT Is 10 oe
compared with it, for the fullness and correctness
OF the doctrine conveyed throughout 1t.
Trom the time of its publication, up to the pre-
cent, it has received the appreciation of the most
learned men and lawyers in every country, and
very deservedly. The compilers OF the Code Ma
poleon drew copiously from it for their work Ma
poleon himself studied il most carefully In early
Iife which NAV account for the singular acueness
and wisdom of his observations and decisions, dur
ing the discussions on the adoption OF his code
Domat should, and hope will be, found In the IL
brary of every American lawyer
Your obedient servant, ALFRED HENNES.
