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 Ed-
mund Jennings, Secretary of the Province, contains seven of these
early issues of the Parks press, dated 1728 to 1737; and also fourteen
consecutive 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 General Assembly, the Statutes of the
United States are authoritative in the State, as are those of England
passed prior to July 4, 1776, applicable to the Province and adopted
therein. A list of these latter, with notes, 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
annotated. These Statutes have been interpreted by the English and
Federal Courts, as well as by those of Maryland.

Reports.

The decisions of the Maryland Courts of last resort have been
printed in the following volumes:

Harris and McHenry, 4 vols. ...................... .1700-1779
Harris and Johnson, 7 vols. ....................... .1800-1826
Harris and GUI, 2 vols. .......................... ..1826-1829

Bland's Chancery Reports, 3 vols. .................. .1811-1832
Johnson's Chancery Beports, 4 vols.................. 1847-1854
Maryland Reports, vols. 1-112....................... 1851-1910
The reports prior to 1st Maryland have been reprinted, with anno-
tations, under the editorship of Wm. T. Brantly, and vols. 1-79 of the
Maryland Reports have been reprinted under the editorship of Wm.
H. Perking, Jr.

The "Maryland Law Review" began the publication of important
nisi prius decisions in 1901.
