Did IL ever occur to you,- aaid a well
known lawyer yesterday, whence comes
the custom Of rhising the right hand
when the oath in taken? MOI I'm not
surprised because ] don't believe there
in one lawyer in ten who knows it's
origin.
Way back in the twelfth century
when the common Inv was first put in
force. It VIVA the custom to brand all
persons convicted OF a felony on the
inside Of the right thumb with n hot
iron. 1t Was the law that any person so
convicted should not he allowed to
toatiiy, ~ in order to be certain that all
witnesses were competent, the raising
OF tho right hand, palm for wnrd. WA re-.
