book 48

, tit. 19 (_de poenis_) fragment 27, which begins "_Divi fratres_." The last paragraph of this fragment empowers the Roman governor (_præses_) to arrest and imprison any of the leading citizens (_principales_) who have committed felonies. It is cited as a precedent in favor of the Spanish president.--_Munroe Smith_.

[36] At this point the following citation occurs in the margin: _ultra plures cum Cobb lib. 3, variar, c. 13, nº 6. Bartol alias ex conducto et item cumquidam ff locat e inl c et divus ff de uauj e ex trah i egruti p. totum maxime n° 15 luias De penia in l i c de principal lib. 12_. Much of this is unintelligible and there have evidently been many errors in transcription due to the illegibility of the original MS. The following conjectures and information, however, clear up certain portions of the passage.

Mr. FitzGerald conjectures _ultra plures_ to be "several [authors] besides." _Cobb._ is read _Codieibus_ by Father José Algué, S.J.

_Ex conducto et item cumquidam ff locat_. The reference is to Justinian's Digest,
