Humor In Or Of Wills, Elmer M. Million

Vanderbilt Law Review

Wills are of great antiquity. According to Moslem tradition, Adam(the original, as distinguished from the Old) drafted a will which was handed down orally until reduced to writing in the time of Mahomet. Medieval scholars seriously debated whether this will existed. However, "the authenticity of this will has not been established." If written after Adam's eviction from the Garden of Eden for breach of a substantial condition of the tenancy, it would presumably be a testament only, Adam no longer having any interest in land to transmit.

The Conflict Of Laws: A Comparative Study. Volume Four Property: Bills And Notes: Inheritance: Trusts: Application Of Foreign Law: Lntertemporal Relations, Ernst Rabel

Michigan Legal Studies Series

With this fourth and final volume, the monumental survey of existing systems of conflicts law, initiated by the late Ernst Rabel in 1939 under the auspices of the American Law Institute but conducted after 1942 through the generous sponsorship of the University of Michigan Law School, is completed. It is most fortunate that, despite the fact that the present volume was prepared in various institutions during the years immediately preceding the author's death on September 7, 1955, he not only finished but also revised the proofs of the text; the various tables were later compiled at Ann Arbor.
