Excerpt from A Treatise on the Civil Jurisdiction of a Justice of the Peace, in the State of New York The continual errors which many justices run into, in their proceedings, under the law which confers their Civil jurisdic tion. Prove that they want an explanation of that law in their hands. It is impossible that it should be otherivise. A law of such magnitude cannot carry every exposition on its breast.

Such men, however, are, in the contempla tion of the legislature, to carry this law into effect. Lawyers obtain knowledge from books, and justices would be more than men, if they could acquire it in any other way.
