Note 167 — VII. ITS OBSTACLES TO CONVICTION.
Reading edition
In this connection honorable mention is due Drs. Tatum and Joynes, of Virginia, for their papers on “The Attributes of the Impregnated Germ,” and “Some of the Legal Relations of the Fœtus in Utero” (Virginia Medical Journal, 1856.) Through the agency of the latter of these gentlemen, an important modification has been made in the law of the State; as has also been effected in Wisconsin, by Dr. Brisbane.
