In the law of evidence, matters of public and general interest, such as the boundaries of counties or towns, rights of common, claims of highway, etc., are allowed to be proved by general reputation; e. g., by the declaration of deceased persons made ante litem motain, by old documents, etc., notwithstanding the general rule against sec- ondary evidence.
