CONFLICT OF LAWS
IN
CASE S OF DIVORCE.

BY PATRICK- FRASER,
ADVOCATE.

For Courts to quarrel and contend about Jurisdiction, is a piece of human frailty; and the
more, because of a childish opinion, that 'tis the duty of a good and able Judge to enlarge the
Jurisdiction of his Court; whence this disorder is increased, and the spur made use of instead
of the bridle. But that Courts, thro' this heat of contention, should, on all sides, uncon-
trollably reverse each other's decrees, which belong not to Jurisdiction, is an intolerable evil,
and by all means to be suppress'd by kings, the squate, or government. For 'tis a most per-
nicious example that Courts, which make peace among the subjects, should quarrel among
themsblves.-BAcoN.
