Note 105
The trina mancipatio is most clearly defined
by Ulpian, (Fragment. x. p. 591, 592, edit. Schulting;) and
best illustrated in the Antiquities of Heineccius.
Note: The son of a family sold by his father did not become
in every respect a slave, he was statu liber; that is to
say, on paying the price for which he was sold, he became
entirely free. See Hugo, Hist. Section 61 - W.]
