Excerpt from La Revue Légale, 1901, Vol. 7: Organe De L'association Du Jeune Bareau De MontrealIt is in India that we find still surviving that form of family organization which was once characteristic of all the Aryans. This is the joint undivided family, composed of the male descendants of a common ancestor, any males who have been adopted by members of the family, and the wives, widows. And unmarried daughters of the male members, all of whom are living as a joint Hindu family, and none of whom have separated from others. (sir W. C. Petheram, second article on English Judges and Hindu Law, 1899' p. All of these are joint owners in the family property, and offer sacrifices to the same common ancestor. Students of Roman Law know that this description of an existing Hindu family applies with absolute accuracy to the early Roman family.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
