WINTER ISSUE OF THE

SOCIETY'S E-JOURNAL IS

FILLED WITH HISTORY, NEWS

The second issue of the

Journal of the Texas Supreme

Court Historical Society was

distirbuted to members by email in December. This expanded publication contains nine articles -- up from three in the Fall inaugural issue -- as well

as a calendar of events and lists of trustees and new members. The highlight is an article by e-Journal Executive Editor David Furlow on the continuing influence of Castilian law on Texas and on the Texas Supreme Court.
