Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ...the foregoing rules of Roman Law were adopted both at Amsterdam, where general and special mortgages constituted before a judge of Amsterdam have equal force and effect so far as regards property situated in that territory, as well as at Utrecht in respect to property subject to the jurisdiction of the judge before whom a mortgage which is both special and general has been created; (which, however, has been altered since the first edition of this work was published, the obligatory force of a clause of general conventional hypothec subjoined to a special mortgage of immoveable property having been wholly denied bT the States of the Province of Utrecht.

Seller's Description:
Very Good. No Jacket. 557 pages (complete). A mild-mannered copy. Previous owner signature and stamps (Edwin van Reenen Schlemmer). The boards are benign. They have some scuffing, marks, wear all about. The spine has been burnished, wear to the head and foot. The boards are steady and sound. The book bears its years lightly. The papertrims are a little sunned, a little worn from storage, a little marked by use and ownership. The contents are agreeably tidy. They are orderly, neat, clean and clear, earnest, fresh-faced, confident. fk.
