j RIGHT TO INHERIT,
i The question whether Inher
itance is an Inherent right or a
grant from public society has
been already considered by such
great Jurists as Theophllus, Cic
ero. Grotlus, Vlnnlus, Cojas,
Puffendorf, Bynekerschoek, Leib
nitz, Doneau. Lord Mansfield,
Montesquieu, Merlin, ToulUer,
Proudhon and other equally great
Jurists and philosophers of all
times and places, and tne best
thought of the world at the pres
ent time Is generally conceded to
be expressed by the conclusion
that the right to dispose of prop
erty after death Is a natural and
lnbsrsut right of mankind which
cannot be taken away by the
state. It Is said by one of the
greatest of the world's Jurists.
Troplong, that no country is en
titled to be regarded as free
where a right to dispose of prop
erty by will does not exist
