Notes

  1. 1.

    As for the miscellaneous cases of the First Registration Office of Harbin, see the File No. LD005-001-794 of the Harbin Municipal Archives (哈尔滨档案馆). No punctuation marks were used in the original text, which are now added to facilitate readers’ understanding. The Chinese name of the notary in the file is “乌曼斯吉(Umanski)”.

  2. 2.

    International Communique Weekly, “New Notary Offices Established in Russia (俄国新设公证机关)”, International Communique Weekly (国际公报), No. 26, 1923. No punctuation marks were used in the original text, which are now added to facilitate readers’ understanding.

  3. 3.

    The High Court of East Province Special Administrative Region (东省特别区域高等审判厅), No. 3298 Order (东省特别区域高等审判厅训令第三二九八号) to Chu Shu-Sheng, President of the District Court”, see the File No. LD005-001-806 of the Harbin Municipal Archives. No punctuation marks were used in the original text, which are now added to facilitate readers’ understanding.

  4. 4.

    “Five Important news (要闻五则)”, The Law Weekly Review (法律评论), Issue 13, 1923. No punctuation marks were used in the original text, which are now added to facilitate readers’ understanding.

  5. 5.

    According to the Rules on District and Village System for Trial Implementation issued by the Governor’s Office on 22 October 1922, each of the counties in Fengtian Province was divided into eight districts directly under the leadership of the county government, and each district had jurisdiction over a number of villages. This system was a pioneering practice of local autonomy in government in Northeast China at that time.—Translator’s note.

  6. 6.

    “The Order (训令), Governor’s Office of Fengtian Province (奉天省长公署) (No. 494) (第四九四号)”, Fengtian Gazette (奉天公报), No. 4196. No punctuation marks were used in the original text, which are now added to facilitate readers’ understanding.

    Shandong Provincial Department of Justice (山东省司法厅) (ed.), Records of Judicial Events in Shandong (山东司法大事记), (1989) Shandong Provincial Department of Justice, at p. 24. See also Shandong Provincial Department of Justice (山东省司法厅) (ed.), Chronicle of Shandong Judicial Administration (山东司法行政志), (1989) Shandong Provincial Department of Justice, at pp. 168–169.

  8. 8.

    Shandong Provincial Department of Justice (山东省司法厅) (ed.), Chronicle of Shandong Judicial Administration (山东司法行政志), (1989) Shandong Provincial Department of Justice), at pp. 174–175. The Chinese character “洋(foreign)” in Article 6(6) is doubtful, because there was no “洋(foreign)” before, or it has been omitted, which remains to be further proved. In addition, whether the “notarial certificate” in the Article is a mistake of “legal certificate officially issued” or note remains to be proved.

  9. 9.

    Order of the Ministry of Justice on the Approval of Notaries’ Fee Scale (核准公证人收费表令)” (Order No. 9851) (训令第九八五一号), Judicial Gazette, No. 187, 1923. No punctuation marks were used in the original text, which are now added to facilitate readers’ understanding.
