To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Objections have been taken in a few instances to the validity of awards on grounds which are open to litigants in all systems of procedure. For in- stance, the award of the King of the Netherlands in the Boundary Dispute between Great Britain and the United States in 1831 was rejected on the ground that the arbitrator had exceeded his jurisdiction. The award made by Sir E. Thornton in 1875 in the dispute between the United States and Mexico as to the responsibility for damage caused by Indians,... was objected to on the ground that it had been given on evidence which had since been proved to be false. But excepting cases such as these, the judgments of International Tribunals have been satisfied by the unsuccessful parties without fail. It is an old story that there is no sanction for International Law. That is so in a sense, and there is no power to enforce the awards of International Tribunals. There are no sheriffs, no bailiffs to execute judgments. But the honour of the Nations concerned INTERNATIONAL LAW 19 and public opinion provide a sanction which has proved effective in the past, and is not likely to grow less as years go by.
