Code Henry: n.a., vii+1-326+(3)+1-47+1-16+1-110+1-16,+1-75+1-32+1-112+1-27+1-, Cap Henry, Chex P. Roux, Imp. du Roi, n.d. (1812). (This compendium of laws relating to the “Kingdom of the North,” the royal domain of Henry 1 of Haiti, was published by his Privy Council with the King’s approbabtion on 20 Feb. 1812. The preface, pp. i-vii, issued in the name of the Privy Council, purports to place the evolution of this Haitian code within historical contexts while meeting peculiarly Haitian needs. There is no index or t.o.c. Some guidance may be derived from knowing the order of the laws covered, each with separate pagination: Loi civile, pp.1-326; Articles additionnels à la Loi civile, (3); Loi de commerce, pp.1-47; Loi sur les prises, pp.1-16; Loi sur la procédure civile, pp.1-110; Loi criminelle, correctionnelle et de police, pp.1-16; Loi sur la procédure criminelle, police correctionnelle, et la simple police, pp.1-75; Loi concernant la culture, pp.1-32; Loi militaire, pp.1-112; Loi pénale militaire, pp.1-27; Royal edict proclaiming the assembled codes as the “Code Henry,” final pp.1-3. See also a collection of earlier legislation by Christophe, in Spanish translation, offered elsewhere on this site as: Haiti- Leg- 1807, Early Laws of Henri Christophe {Sp. Transla. 1810}.)
