This book is a common law guide to notaries, and may so far be relied on everywhere in the country. Where it refers to specific statutes, as in the first chapter particularly, it exhibits the requirements of the notarial office in Michigan only, unless otherwise declared. It contains a collection of the more common forms that notaries have more frequent occasions to use. It is believed to be safe in its statements of the law, and more full in that respect than any similar publication at hand, and it is hoped that it will be a substantial convenience.
