Notes
A continuation of the New Revised Code of 1803 (1803.015), which had simply added to the revisal of Virginia law undertaken after the 1792 Assembly (1794.037); only the public acts of Assembly from the 1801 to 1807 sessions are included herein, though a list of titles of the private acts passed in those sessions is included at the end; front matter in this compilation carries two certificates from the authorities assigned by the legislature to inspect the text for errors, certificates that were also published separately, one from councilor of state George William Smith (1808.038), and one from the respected legal reporters William Waller Hening and William Munford (1808.039).
