La présente édition paraît être la première (voir Dupin n° 1691) et on y trouve des indications extrêmement intéressantes sur les professions judiciaires, la nullité des obligations, les procédures spécifiques telles que l’arbitrage etc.

COMMENTAIRE DE L’ORDONNANCE DE LOUIS XV SUR LES SUBSTITUTIONS, DU MOIS D’AOÛT 1747
plein veau fauve, tit. doré sur pc. havane, dos à 5 nerfs orné de fleurons et doubles filets encadrants dorés, roulettes soulignant les nerfs, tr. rouges, (mors fendus, coiffe sup. accidentée, coins émoussés avec des mq. plats et dos frottés avec qq. petites épidermures, qq. piqûres) (Dupin n° 730). La substitution est l’acte juridique par lequel le détenteur d’un patrimoine substitue à l’héritier institué un tiers appelé à recueillir les biens pour le cas où l’héritier institué mourrait avant le testateur ou institue un héritier à charge pour lui de transmettre les biens à un tiers déterminé et déterminable (c’est la substitution fidei commissaire). Cette institution était extrêmement répandue au Moyen Âge, mais au XVIe et XVIIe siècle elle se heurta aux questions posées par le droit naturel et spécialement sur le point de savoir si la liberté de tester était de droit naturel. Il en résulta de graves controverses et l’une des principales ordonnances du chancelier D’Aguesseau fut précisément de mettre de l’ordre dans les divergences jurisprudentielles qui s’étaient faites jour. On sait que F. très proche de D’Aguesseau fut un des principaux auteurs des ordonnances que l’on attribue généralement au chancelier. C’est donc un texte de référence.

GENERAL ORDERS CIVIL WAR WISCONSIN. THOMAS Lorenzo and TOWNSEND ED. E. D.
Collection of Three General Orders
Washington DC: War Department Adjutant General's Office 1862. Handbills. 12mo. Very good to near fine. One is 4-punched at left edge not affecting text. Unusual gathering of three Wisconsin-related "General Orders" issued in 1862 1863 and 1864 all issued from the Adjutant General's Office at the War Department in Washington DC as follows: General Orders No. 217 30 December 1862 1p Notes three miscellaneous actions for three individual servicemen the last of which involves 2d Lieutenant Samuel B. Morse of the 7th Wisconsin Volunteers who resigned before the order dismissing him. General Orders No. 11 10 January 1863 1p dismissing Colonel R.C. Murphy of the 8th Wisconsin Volunteers from the Army "for allowing his command to be surprised at Holly Springs Mississippi without having taken proper steps to protect his post or repulse the enemy and his troops having been found in bed at the time of attack." General Orders No. 211 15 June 1864 1p text of a Congressional resolution "tendering the thanks of Congress to Lieutenant Colonel Joseph Bailey of the 4th Regiment of Wisconsin Volunteers. for distinguished services in the recent campaign on the Red River by which the gunboat flotilla under Rear Admiral David D. Porter was rescued from imminent peril." General Orders were usually made in modest quantities for distribution to the various army commands where the company clerks would collect them hence the occasional file holes. A great many were destroyed during the course of the war and original examples of most survive in surprisingly few copies. War Department, Adjutant General's Office unknown

General Orders No. 184
Washington DC: War Department Adjutant General's Office 1863. 16mo. Self-cover. 8pp. Near fine. Binding traces at gutter not affecting text. This lengthy and fascinating General Order chronicles the Fort Snelling court martial trial of Captain James Starkey of the 1st Minnesota Mounted Rangers charged with "Making false muster" "Willingly signing muster rolls containing false musters" "Making false return to his superior officer of the state of his Company" and "Conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman." Each charge is elaborated in great detail. Starkey was found guilty of most of the charges and sentenced "To be cashiered and to be forever disqualified from holding any office of trust or profit under the Government of the United States" -- this latter sentence commuted by President Lincoln who always believed in giving someone a second chance. Signed in type at the conclusion by Townsend as Assistant Adjutant General. General Orders were usually made in modest quantities for distribution to the various army commands where the company clerks would collect them hence the occasional file holes. A great many were destroyed during the course of the war and original examples of most survive in surprisingly few copies. War Department, Adjutant General's Office unknown
