Book Description
Excerpt from The Bench and Bar of Georgia, Vol. 1: Memoirs and Sketches, Containing a Court Roll From Court to From Etc In the variety of matter incorporated in these volumes the author has thought proper to admit several letters written in the confidence of friendship, some of them entirely too kind for publication by himself. While this may be so, he is even willing to bear the reproach for the sake of other days and other associations now pleasant to recall. A number of origi nal letters will be found, however, wholly free from this objec tion, addressed to other persons, all germain to the subject. And here let the fact be proclaimed that general history is made up of transactions not less sudden and casual than those of individuals which constitute their chapter in the world. This current of life, more or less feeble in the experience of every man, gathers up particles from a thousand rills, and, after cleansing the gold from the rubbish, leaves the deposit for distribution among his fellows, - the dividend often being so minute in value as to require a microscope to perceive it.

Book Description
Published in 1948, this work provides a detailed account of the constitutional history of Georgia from the Charter of 1732 to the adoption of the Constitution of 1945 and includes an analysis of the 1948 Georgia Constitution. Albert B. Saye presents the major constitutional developments in chronological order. An index allows readers to compare different aspects of Georgia's eight constitutions, such as the composition of the General Assembly, the powers of the Governor, and the jurisdiction of the Courts. Based on extensive research of original sources, A Constitutional History of Georgia reveals the evolution of the Georgia constitution up to 1948 as a gradual expansion of political democracy.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Bench and Bar of Georgia During the Eighteenth Century The result of my search is less than a handful of grain. It may not be beaten into any logical narrative. But a fact here, a fact there, and another yonder may be artificially strung together, and I hope that you will not find that the patchwork is altogether void, as containing matter different from that expressed in its title: "The Bench and Bar of Georgia During the Eighteenth Century." Who was the first man who ever practiced law in Georgia? We know the names of the first judges (2 C. R. 11); even the names of the first jury (1 Stevens' Hist, of Ga. 101), but who can give us the name of the first Georgia lawyer, or indeed of any lawyer that practiced in the Colony prior to the Revolution? The natural place to find the answer to this question would be in the court records. They have been lost, and, consequently, it has been impossible to fully write of the Bench and Bar of Georgia in the 18th Century. But in 1904 the State began the publication of the Colonial Records and made available to the student of Georgia History the Journal kept by William Stephens, in Savannah; the Journal kept by the Earl of Egmond in London and the hitherto unpublished Minutes of the Trustees in London; the Minutes of the Commons House of Assembly, and of the Governor and Council, kept in Savannah from 1754 to 1774, and the Minutes of the House and Council at Savannah and Augusta during the Revolutionary period. The entries in those volumes are for the most part merely formal and must be pieced together and then fused into one in order to furnish the basis of a narrative. But from them all we get an impressionistic picture, if not a photographic reproduction, of life in the little Colony on the Savannah, which would be petty and local but for the fact that they tell of the Beginnings of the Judicial System of a great State.
