Session Laws.

The first regular issue of -session laws was begun in 1727, and at the
.session of that year an act was passed "for the encouragement of
William Parks, Printer/' by whom the "Compleat Body of Laws" was
printed. A volume in the State Library, once the property of Kdmund
Jennings, Secretary of the Province, contains seven of these early
issues of the Parks press, dated 3728 to 1737; and also fourteen consec-
utive issues from the press of Jonas Green, the successor of Parks.
These latter cover all the sessions from July, 1740 to 1752,. and it is
probable that this collection is .unique.

The Library has also a complete-collection of session laws from 1768
to date.

Besides the Statutes of the .Ger»eiral Assembly the Statutes of the
United States are authoritative in $be State, as are those of England
passed prior to July 4th, 1776, applicable to the Province and adopted
therein. A list of these latter, withsotes, is given in "Kilty's Report
of Statutes, Annapolis, 1811," and in "Alexander's British Statutes in
Force in Maryland, Baltimore, .1870,** the latter being elaborately an-
notated. These Statutes have been interpreted by the English and
Federal Courts as well as by those of Maryland.
