Excerpt from Memorials of the Bar of Lincoln County, Maine, 1760-1900 Law and the Christian religion are types of the highest developement in human civilization, and are not only props but pillars of state. Both are rooted in the principles of natural right and justice; and summarily expressed' in the Mosaic code of the rock-written decalogue. It is a philosophical axiom that order is nature's firsf law. But order is a fruition - the creation of law. Back of all order, in the chaos, where cause and effect work out issues, there must be a law - maker; and while law marshals organic relations of each molecule of matter, every throb of thought, all acts of the will, in material, mental, moral, social, civil and religious organism, it is only an expression of purpose, developement of design, movement of a plan by force of an intelligent cause. The law-maker is behind all. Law links the chain which holds all creation to its activities, and in its proper place all its forms, natural, moral and civic. Society is one of them, and the state an aggregation thereof, an outgrowth of law. The integrity of the state is upheld by force of law which keeps in proper action to their true functions the underlying forces of right and wrong in life's drama. Law is therefore. A science, and right and wrong the sphere of its operations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
