District Court, District of Columbia
Mason's Administrators v. Lawrason, 1 D.C. 190 (1804)
Cranci, Fitzhugh, Notes

Mason's Administrators v. Lawrason

Opinion of the Court

The Court (Cranci-i, J., absent,)

permitted verbal evidence to be given that this was the seal, and also that the clerk of that court, W. Marshall, had usually attested records in that manner, and did not insist on its being authenticated agreeably to the requisites of the Act of Congress, as it was not the Act of a State court, but one of the United States.

(Judge Fitzhugh’s Notes.)
