    Ancient Law19th Century · English

    The Roman contract completed by a written ledger entry.

    In the Literal or Written Contract, the formal act by which an Obligation was superinduced on the Convention, was an entry of the sum due, where it could be specifically ascertained, on the debit side of a ledger.
    chapter 13
    This epoch is synchronous with the period at which the famous Roman classification of Contracts into four sorts—the Verbal, the Literal, the Real, and the Consensual—had come into use, and during which these four orders of Contract constituted the only descriptions of engagement which the law would enforce.
    chapter 13
    The Literal Contract comes next and here all formalities are waived, if proof of the agreement can be supplied from the rigid observances of a Roman household.
