Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Code of the State of Georgia, Vol. 4 To the Bench and Bar of Georgia: The Code of Georgia, 1895, has been described by a competent authority to be the best law book ever published. I cordially subscribe to that opinion. It will remain an enduring monument to the ability and wisdom of the distinguished lawyers who codified the same under the authority of the State. That Code embraces the public acts of the Legislature down to and including the session laws of 1895. Many and important changes in the law, however, have been enacted since the adoption of the Code of 1895 - that is to say, during the years 1896, 1897, 1898, 1899, and 1900. Some of the public acts or session laws for these years are out of print, the edition having been exhausted. The purpose of this code supplement is to classify and codify all of the laws of a public and permanent nature which have been enacted since the adoption of the Code of 1895. I have not felt at liberty to change the phraseology of the enacting part of statutes, even where the phraseology was involved or obscure, or manifestly erroneous as printed, but I have set out the statutes in tot verb., simply pruning off the formal words usual to legislative enactments. The new laws will be found codified in 6037 to 6758 inclusive. I concluded that to make an index to the supplement by itself would create confusion, there being already three separate indexes, one at the end of each of the three volumes of the code of 1895. I have, therefore, prepared an index to the entire Code of 1895, and of the acts passed subsequently, which are embraced in this Code Supplement. Not being restricted for space, as were the codifiers of the code of 1895, I have made the index exceedingly full, as will be readily seen upon inspection of it, having been careful to preserve rigidly the alphabetical order of arrangement of topics and of catch words under the topics, and also to select such catch words as would indicate at least the substance or germ of the matter attempted to be indexed. I have not made a separate index to the Political Code and the Civil Code, but have treated both of these Codes as one, as being, taken together, an embodiment of the civil law of force in this State. All of this matter, therefore, which is set out in volumes 1 and 2 of the code of 1895 will be found indexed together under the title "Civil Code," at the end of this volume. I have made also a new, separate, and very full index of the penal laws of the State, and the same will be found under the title "Penal Code," at the end of this volume.
