VALUABLE RECORD FOUND
IN NORFOLK COUNTY OFFICE
Gives Acts Of Colonial Assembly Miss

Mt LARGE.

Dr. Henry r. McIlwaine, State Librar-

from Alvah II. Martin. clerk OF the Cir
cult Court of Norfolk. County, very
valuable manuscript from the viewpoint
OF the antiquarian. and the general his
torical or law student. 1t will be re-
membered that the Colonial Virginia
Statutes wore complied In 1919 by will

certain manuscript copies Of the Gem
eral Assembly Sessions which he was
unable to find. and are for that reason
script completing tho sessions from
1852 to ~. Is valuable for the rea son
that 1t contains the laws enacted at the
June session OF 1913. which arc not to
be found in any edition OF Hening's
statutes OF the colonial period.
1t Is worthy OF note that the Acts OF
the Assembly up to the year 1892 were,
except In two or three instances. re-
corded in manuscript form altogether.
and lawyers who wished copies OF their
own would have to go to the proper
place and copy the original at tho office.
1t Is not known how this CODY found
Its way into the Norfolk clerks office.
but the supposition is that a Norfolk
County lawyer practicing at that court
was subsequently made clerk OF the
county, and his private property
through long association with the
oflice. finally came to be looked upon as
public property.
w. G. Stanard. secretary Of the Vir-
ginia Historical Society. brought DR..
McIlwaine's attention to tho manuscript
and he Immediately left for Norfolk to
investigate the matter. After a consul
tation with Mr.. Martin and the Judge of
the court he obtained consent to keep 1t
at the library until he could secure a
copy. The copy of the June session of
1913 will be used as a supplement to
