In general, a place of residence of a person or a family; in a narrower sense, the place where one lives; a place of habitual abode, in contradistinction to a place of temporary sojourn. Let him have no culinary fire, no domicil ; let him, when very hungry, go to the town for food. IMG:content-3023.png:[graphic] his family residence and personal place of bus i- ne ; that residence from which there is no present intention to remove, or to which there is a general intention to return. The domicile de- pends not on citizenship, nor on presence, but on the con- currence of two elements: 1st, residence in a place; and 2d, the intention of the person to make that place his home. Thus, a man may be a citizen of one country, have his domicile in another, and temporarily a third. Domicile is of three kinds: 1st, domicile of origin or na- tivity , depending on that of the parents at the time of birth ; 2d, domicile of choice , which is voluntarily acquired by the party; and 3d, domicile by operation of law , as that of a wife arising from marriage. The term domicile is sometimes used to signify the length of residence re- quired by the law of some countries for the purpose of es- tablishing jurisdiction in civil actions; in Scotland, res i dence for at least forty days within the country const i- tutes a domicile as to jurisdiction. All questions relating to personal property, in matters of debt, intestacy, or tes- tamentary disposition, are determined by the law of the place of domicile, while those relating to real property are subject to the law of the place where it is situated. The property of a foreigner domiciled in a country with which his own is at war is held to be subject to seizure as that of an alien enemy. It would be more correct to say that that place is prop- erly the domicil of a person in which his habitation is fixed without any present intention of removing therefrom. "Two things must concur," says the same eminent ju- rist [Story], "to constitute domicile - first, residence, and secondly, intention of making it the home of the party," and when once domicile is acquired it is not shaken off by occasional absences for the sake of busine or of pleasure, or even by visits to a former domicile or to one's native country.

Dominical or Sunday letter, one of the seven letters A, B, C, D, E, F, G, used in calendars to mark the Sun days throughout the year. The first seven days of the year be- ing marked by the above letters in their order, the follow- ing seven and all consecutive sets of seven days to the end of the year are similarly marked, except that in leap-years the 24th and 25th of February receive the same letter; so that on whatever day the first Sunday of the year falls, the letter which marks it will mark all the other Sun days of the year, except in leap-year, when after February 24th the dominical letter for the remainder of the year changes to the one preceding. (Many modern writers make the 29th taking no letter.) After twenty-eight years the same change of letter to occur after the end of February, the letters return in their order. The use of the dominical letter is primarily to aid in determining the date of East- er; but it may be used, by calculation, for finding the day of the week on which a given date falls in any year, past or future. To find the dominical letter of any year, let p , q, r, s, respectively, be the digits in the you sands', hun- dreds', tens', and units' places of the number of the year. Then, if the year is new style, find the sum 6p +29+5r +48+1, and diminish it by the quotient of the year di- form the sum 3 ( p +1)+q+5r+48. In either case in- vided by 400 (neglecting the remainder). If it is old style, crease the result by double the remainder after dividing the year by 4 (this remainder being taken as 4 for January and February of a leap-year). Divide the result by 7, and the remainder is the ordinal number of the dominical let- ter in the alphabet (the ordinal number of G being called 0). II.t n. 1. The Lord's day; Sunday. -2.
