A history of inheritance taxation from ancient times to the nineteenth century is Schanz, "Studien zur Geschichte und Theorie der Erbschaftssteuer,"inFinanz-Archiv, vols. 17 and 18.

Re- ported by John William AVallace, vol. 23, pp. 331-352. New York, 1904. 8°.) Opinion delivered by Mr. Justice Clifford. The case involved "the validity of a Federal succession tax on devolutions of real estate by will or descent. It was argued against the tax that a tax on the succession to land was in effect a tax on the land itself, which would be a direct tax within the narrowest definition, hence it was void because it was not appor- tioned among the states. The court held that the tax was an excise and not a direct tax, saying that it was the succession or devolution of the land and not the land itself which was the subject of the tax. It was held tluit although a lien for the tax was laid upon the land itself, that did not make it a tax on the land ; but was merely a regulation for enforcing collection, not affecting the nature of the tax. In support of its view the court referred to the act of Parliament from which the act in question was largely copied, and to the English cases giving to that act substantially the same construction."

" The Court of Appeals did not err when it held that a transfer or succession tax, not being a direct tax upon property, but a charge upon a privilege, exercised or enjoyed under the laws of the State, does not, when imposed in cases where the property passing con- sists of securities exempt by statute, impair the obligation of a contract within the meaning of the Constitution of the United States."
