Session Laws.

The earliest known issues of Maryland session laws were printed
in 1719, 1725 and 1726. 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 Edmund 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 ses-
sions from July, 1740, to 1752.

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 anno-
tated. These Statutes have been interpreted by the English and Fed-
eral Courts, as well as by those of Maryland.
