(Note)
a considerable proportion of what is termed the common
law of England is in this oral and unwritten state.
The cases in which it has been cloathed with words,
that is, in which it has been framed and pronounced,
are to be found in the various collections of reported
decisions. These decisions, not having the sanction
of a law passed by the legislature, are confirmed
or overruled at pleasure by the existing judges;
so that except in matters of the most common and
daily occurrence, they afford no rule of action at all.
