[Footnote 100: If the option of a slave was bequeathed to
several legatees, they drew lots, and the losers were
entitled to their share of his value; ten pieces of gold for
a common servant or maid under ten years: if above that age,
twenty; if they knew a trade, thirty; notaries or writers,
fifty; midwives or physicians, sixty; eunuchs under ten
years, thirty pieces; above, fifty; if tradesmen, seventy,
(Cod. l. vi. tit. xliii. leg. 3.) These legal prices are
generally below those of the market.]
