Supreme Judicial Court of Maine July 1, 1872 (McKenzie v. Wardwell)

DaNFORTH, J.

It is a -well-settled principle that the laws of other States can be recognized by our courts only when proved as a matter of fact. In the absence of such proof the law will be assumed to be the same as our own.

The attorney who recovered the original judgment in the action at bar, testifies that he had a lien thereon for his costs.
