together, to and with divers other persons as yet to the plaintiff unknown,
but whose names, when discovered, he prays may be inserted in the bill, and
they be made parties thereto, with proper and apt words to charge them with
the premises, in order to injure and oppress the plaintiff in ti e premises,

CONFEDERACY, intern. law. An agreement between two or more states or
nations, by which they unite for their mutual protection and good. This term
is applied to such agreement between two independent nations, but it is used
to signify the union of different states of the same nation, as the
confederacy of the states.
2. The original thirteen states, in 1781, adopted for their federal
government the "Articles of confederation and perpetual union between the
States," which continued in force until the present constitution of the
United States went into full operation, on the 30th day of April, 1789, when
president Washington was sworn into office. Vide 1 Story on the Const. B. 2,
c. 3 and 4.


CONFEDERACY, crim. law. An agreement between two or more persons to do an
unlawful act, or an act, which though not unlawful in itself, becomes so by
the confederacy. The technical term usually employed to signify this
