Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Manual for Notaries Public, Justices of the Peace: And Their Employers in Massachusetts
It is a! Curious fact that American text writers on Notaries have usually failed to treat of the noting and extending of marine protests, the most lucrative act the notary is called upon to perform. This work involves a knowledge of laws and cus toms unfamiliar to the average attorney, and nu known to the ordinary notary. The author has endeavored to rob this branch of the notarial office of its mystery by stating the law relating to marine protests, the customs of merchants, mariners, and average adjusters relating thereto as declared by these persons, and as interpreted in the decisions of the Admiralty Courts, and by presenting accurate, approved forms of marine protests in daily use at the port of Boston. Able assistance has been afforded by Mr. George M. Ameridge, Secretary of the Boston Board of Marine Underwriters, and by Messrs. Theodore W. And Christopher Gore, average adjusters.
