These pages are part of a larger publication from 1894 by Justino J. De Arechaga. This is a collection of the codes, decrees, and some minor commentary at various points on the codification of Uruguayan law by the rector of the law school of the University of the Republic and the first jurist in a line of outstanding legal scholars in Uruguay. This contains excerpts on citizenship, the process of obtaining citizenship, and the immigration decree in force at that time.
