ENDNOTES:

(1) The true English word for "arbitrator," or "umpire." See

"Job" ix. 33 -- "Neither is there any daysman betwixt us,

that might lay his hand upon us both." See also Holland's

"Translations of Livy", Page 137 -- "A more shameful

precedent for the time to come: namely, that umpires and

dates-men should convert the thing in suit unto their own

and proper vantage."
