Il
III is often said that law is applied
common sense. said a professor Of the
Yale Law school the other day. while
Is true that Law principles originated
IN common sense, the law itself ia the |
combined experience Of many men, Tor
two men uninstructe6 in law will
agree as to what is applied common
secse.
there are many rules OF law
which undoubtedly have a omnon
sense origin, but, conditions having
changed. history fails to dis close this
origin. Yet these very rules must be re-
tanned in order not to shake personal
and property rights. Therefore no man
can depend on he own unrestricted
commOD sense to know the law.
TO drive this statement home | have
frequently put to an incoming law class
the question, when does an infant be
come OF ageY' The answer ia always
unanimous. when he is twenty.on
years old?"
@One student says. On his twenty
hrst birth DAY, but Of cocr;o he does not
mean it, for he is about II year out of the
way. Another ventures, On the twenty-
hrst anniversary Of his birthday. This
sounds better, but even il correct is not
specific enough. when he has com.
pleted h:s t~wenty-tirst anniversary AT
the beginning Of that day and On his
twenty-frst anniversary, at the precise
honr OF his birth, are other nswer
And then surprise the guessen by
saying that they are all wrong.
@ln computing time it is a general rule
that the law ~disregards part Of a day.
In applying this rule, suppose a man
was born just one minute before mid.
Eight on Jan. |, 1880.
1At midnight he had lived but one
minute, yet the day on which he was
born was ended and the law considered
him one day old. So in computing the
twenty-one years which u man must
live in order to reach his majority we
do not begin with the moment Of birth,
but with the commencement of the day
Of his birth.
snow, since We must start with the
frat moment OF Jan. 2, 1880, it is perhaps
natural TO say that this man did no I
become twenty-one years old until the
close Of Jan. /, 1901. Mathe m~atically
speaking, this is true.
~Twenty-one years in that sense re.
quires that the last moment OF Jan. l
1901, should have arrived in order 10
make the man OF age, aud obviously he
was OF age at That point Of ii me. But
here again the rule is applied.
"As the man was Of age on tiie last
moment OF Jan. /, the law disregnrds
the entire part Of the day Intervening
between the frat moment and the last.
and consequently he became In law
twenty-one years old on the first mo-
ment Of Jan. l. 1901. the day preceding
the twenty-first anniversary Of the birth.
day.
This rule ID a part Of what is known
as the common law and is applied in this
country in I'LL states whethere common
law Of England has been adopted and
remains unchanged by statute. A man
may vote or make a valid will on the
day preceding the twenty-first anniver.
sary OF his birthday. although the right
in the one case and the capacity in the
other are given only to persons who have
reached the age OF twenty-one years.
