legislation; 6) the Corpus Juris Civilis; 7) the most important legal materials culled from classical authors such as Cicero, Pliny and Aulus Gellius; 8) papyri material." In the end, Professor Pharr's ambitious project resulted in only two works: "The Theodosian Code" (1952) and "Ancient Roman Statutes" (1961) In 1938, Blume addressed the Riccobono Seminar on Roman Law, a law society meeting at the Catholic University of America, founded by Salvatore Riccobono on The Code of Justinian, and its Value. By 1939, Blume ceased work on the Code translation as his hopes for publication faded. However, in 1943, Pharr renewed contact with Blume and asked him to send him his manuscript. Justice Blume sent Pharr a draft of his Annotated Justinian Code, and the Novels which proved extremely valuable for Pharr and his assistants in translating the Theodosian Code and Novels. In the first Theodosian Code draft that Pharr mailed to his editorial consultants in 1944, he wrote of Blume's Justinian's Code translation that it was "of much higher quality than anything else that has been done in this field....We are finding both his translation and his notes invaluable in the interpretation of many difficult and obscure passages of the Theodosian Code." Blume also acted as an editorial consultant for Pharr's project and sent him his own translations of part of Book X and of Books XIV-XVI of the Theodosian Code, which proved very helpful. The Theodosian Code translation was published in 1951 by Princeton University Press as first volume in "The Corpus of Roman Law" series; Blume is specially noted by Pharr in preface. Professor Pharr continued his project at the University of Texas, but he was unable to find the subvention he needed to produce a Codex Justinianus translation based on Blume's. When Justice Blume retired from the Wyoming Supreme Court in 1963, after 43 years on the bench, the Annual Survey of American Law called him "...the last of that line of judicial giants, famed in American legal history, who moved west in the vanguard of civilization, helped mold the jurisprudence of the youthful states...and injected into the mainstream of American law, the sprightly breeze of a favonian current." Posthumous publication Justice Blume died at age 96 in 1971 with his magnum opus unpublished.
