Courts and Lawyers of Indiana
CHAPTER I.
COURTS OF THE NORTHWEST TERRITORY-1787-1800.
The most enduring monument of any state is its system of laws. The fame a state has achieved and the rank it attains in civilization are determined more by its judicial system than by any one of its other institutions. The Laws of Moses, the Code of Hammurabi, the Laws of Draco and Solon, the Twelve Tables, the Magna Charta are the keys that unlock the char- acter of the states these several codes represent. No history of one of these states would be considered worthy of notice which did not deal largely with its codes and the systems based thereon. The Mosaic Code permeates the Bible. The phil- osophies of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle are in a very real sense elaborations of the Codes of Draco and Solon. The so-called Laws of Lycurgus are a vivid description of Spartan character. Rome's lasting influence on the world emanates from her laws and systems of laws-the Edicts and the Pan- dects and the Institutes-all based, more or less remotely, on the Twelve Tables. The principles of the Magna Charta form the groundwork of the social organization of the whole Eng- lish-speaking world, now occupying almost three whole con- tinents.
It is customary to give these codes specific names, as if they were the work of a single man, done at a given time and place. No more erroneous conception of these great land- marks could be entertained. They are invariably the work of generations of men, perfected during the lapse of ages, the result of numberless strivings and much bitter experience.
