1. Law of Persons; Personal Property; Wills and Administration.
Professor Lile.
The preliminary lectures in this class are devoted to the nature,
sources and evidences of the law; the absolute and relative rights of
persons, and their constitutional guaranties; citizenship and naturalization;
and subordinate magistrates. This is followed by a thorough
drill in the subjects of principal and agent; husband and wife, including
their common law property rights, with the modern statutory
modifications; parent and child; and guardian and ward. Later, the
study of the law of personal property (including the law of sales) is
pursued in its various phases, followed by that of wills of personalty,
and administration. Under the latter classification are included the
execution of wills; the qualification of personal representatives and
the settlement of their accounts; the law of legacies and of distribution;
and the complete administration of estates.—
