PUBLISHED PURSUANT TO AN ACT OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY "The Laws of a country are necessarily connected with every thing be- longing to the people of it; so that a thorough knowledge of them, and of their progress would inform us of every thing that was most use- ful to be known about them; and one of the greatest imperfections of historians in general, is owing to their ignorance of law." 392864 WE JOHN M. MARTIN and ROBERT G. SCOTT, do hereby cert that the Laws contained in the Sixth volume of HENING'S Statutes at Large, nave been by us, examined and compared with the originals from which they were taken, and have been found truly and accurately printed, except as to a list of Errata to the number of thirty-five, at the end of the volume. Given under our hands this 13th day of July 1819. JOHN M. MARTIN. ROBERT G. SCOTT. Members of the Executive Council of Virginia. DEM AOKK |
