In a green half morocco and cloth case. Prints the arguments made by those members of the House of Lords who opposed a repeal of the Stamp Act. The main reason seems to be not that the tax is just but that repealing it would set a bad precedent. This pamphlet also lists the Lords who spoke and voted against the repeal. Their votes would prove to be in vain however as the bill passed both houses and received royal assent on March 18 one week after the Lords' vote. Adams notes an eight-page list of the minority in the House of Commons who voted against the bill to repeal the Stamp Act bound at the end but it seems that format is the exception and that most copies simply contain the TWO PROTESTS.

Very Good. <br/><br/> This Act remitted the penalties imposed on persons who had violated the just-repealed Stamp Act which had sparked defiance and civil disorder in the Colonies. It also validated all documents which had been issued in violation of the Stamp Act. Many Colonists had violated the Act because they were unable "to procure Paper Vellum or Parchment duly stamped as required by the said Act; and that such Persons for want of the same and other Persons residing elsewhere by reason thereof may have committed many Offences contrary to the Directions and true Intent and Meaning of the said Act." They are thus restored to the good graces of the Crown.<br/>ESTC N56936 5- Lincoln's Inn Newberry U NC U VA John Carter Brown as of December 2018.

176635807Boston: Edes & Gill 1766. Broadsheet newspaper extra. 2pp. Disbound.<br/> <br/>Provenance: Hannibal Hamlin inked stamp<br/> <br/>News of the repeal of the Stamp Act and the celebrations in Boston.<br/> <br/>Although news of the repeal of the Stamp Act had first reached Boston on May 16 1766 subsequent issues of Edes and Gill's Boston Gazette were devoted to the event. In this June 2 newspaper extra the first column and a half of the first page is given over to a lengthy critique of Governor Francis Bernard written anonymously by Dr. Joseph Warren under the pen name Paskalos under the above headline. During the Stamp Act controversy Bernard had written letters to the London Board of Trade which were deemed by the Sons of Liberty as unsympathetic to the American position. This harsh letter by Warren would be the first of many in a tirade against the colonial governor eventually leading Bernard to attempt and arrest Edes and Gill for libel. Also included in this newspaper extra are reports from the various Stamp Act celebrations in the colonies most notably in Philadelphia New York Charleston South Carolina and Boston. An extract from a Hartford letter however reports that a celebration with fireworks had caused a school house to explode resulting in significant casualties. Edes & Gill unknown books

A Sermon Preached Before His Excellency Francis Bernard Esq And the Honorable House of Representatives Of the Province of the Massachusetts-Bay in New England May 29th 1765. Being the Anniversary for the Election of His Majesty's Council for the Province. Boston: Green and Russell 1765. Slim octavo period-style full speckled calf gilt black morocco spine label uncut; pp. 3-5 6-59 1. $3800.First edition of the influential Boston pastor's most famous and most controversial work his May 29 1765 Election Day Sermon delivered two months after passage of the incendiary Stamp Actboldly proclaiming ""when tyranny is abroad 'submission is a crime'""one of only 700 copies published.Macaulay wrote that the Stamp Act of 1765 will be remembered ""as long as the globe lasts."" It marked a sharp break from the past as ""the first direct internal tax ever to be laid on the colonies by Parliament; indeed the first tax of any sort other than customs duties"" Morison 185. ""In the summer of 1765 as colonists waited for the stamp tax to go into effect voices of protest grew louder and drew support from many ministers"" Stout New England Soul 270. In particular the sermons of pastors such as Jonathan Mayhew and Andrew Eliot ""took on new vigor new relevance and meaning."" In Eliot's May 29 1765 Election Day sermon published the same year his words were infused with ""direct power for to proclaim from the pulpit in the year of the Stamp Act and before the assembled magistrates of Massachusetts that when tyranny is abroad 'submission is a crime' was an act of political defiance"" Bailyn Ideological Origins 6. Mindful of his audience which included Britain's powerful Massachusetts-Bay Governor Francis Bernard Eliot here underscores the colonists' objections by invoking their rights as Englishmen and the tradition of common law. ""Our fathers dearly bought the privileges we enjoy"" he declares: ""It is evident when they left their native land they thought the rights of Englishmen would follow them."" Yet throughout even as he might couch his language there remains his ""unexpectedly fierce insistence"" that submission to the perversion and misuse of power is not simply a crime: it is ""an offence against the state an offence against mankind an offence against God.'""Eliot's sermon distinctly offered a ""fine articulation of a tradition of thought familiar to every New Englander if not to every American exemplifying at the outset of the Revolutionary era a substratum of belief that underlay the developing rebellion."" Soon his correspondence ""initiated by the publication of the election sermon expresses with unique clarity the transformation of election-sermon platitudes into revolutionary imperatives. It is probably the most vivid expression of this transforming or triggering process in the entire literature of the Revolution"" Bailyn Faces of Revolution 111-13. In 1768 confronted with the arrival of a British warship and four regiments of troops Eliot would write to Harvard benefactor Thomas Hollis: ""'To have a standing army! Good God! What can be worse to a people who have tasted the sweets of liberty!' He was convinced he wrote that if the English government 'had not had their hands full at home they would have crushed the colonies"" Bailyn Ideological 114. ""Eliot weathered the Revolutionary War in Boston and at the request of General Washington made the official thanksgiving sermon on March 28 1776. He died on September 13 1778"" Harvard University.

1766376944London: J. Almon 1766. First English edition. 62pp. Without the terminal ad leaf. 8vo. Modern full speckled calf spine gilt red morocco label. First English edition. 62pp. Without the terminal ad leaf. 8vo. The scarce first British edition after the first edition printed in Philadelphia in December 1765 of Dickinson's first work an important tract against the Stamp Act. Here Dickinson argued against stricter trade regulations that drained the colonies of currency and warned that taxing the colonies without their consent was a step toward slavery. "Considered only as an essay in economic theory the pamphlet is notable for its discussion of paper money of flows of trade and of the mechanisms and effects of taxation are sophisticated for the time.But the essay is more than a technical treatise. Stylistically it has the vivid phraseology the dramatic exclamatory italicization and paragraphing and the aptness of illustration that would soon make Dickinson the most widely read pamphleteer in the colonies" Bailyn. <br /> <br /> This can be exemplified by the culminating section of this work in which Dickinson writes: "Late measures have indeed excited an universal and unexampled grief and indignation throughout the colonies. What man who wishes the welfare of America can view without pity without passion her restricted and almost stagnated trade with its numerous train of evils-taxes torn from her without her consent-Her legislative assemblies the principal pillars of her liberty crushed into insignificance-A formidable force established in the midst of peace to bleed her into obedience-The sacred right of trial by jury violated by the erection of arbitrary and unconstitutional jurisdictions-and general poverty discontent and despondence stretching themselves over his unoffending country"<br /> <br /> Indeed it was in the wake of the dissent following the Stamp Act that Dickinson emerged as arguably the first hero of the Revolution an important spokeman against British tyranny. His Letters from a Farmer in Pennsylvania published in 1768 would put him at the forefront of the Patriot movement and the philosophical underpinnings of that work can be found in his Late Regulations. It is widely believed that Benjamin Franklin then in London as the colonial agent for Pennsylvania arranged for the work's publication there timed with his famous testimony before the House of Commons protesting the Stamp Act.<br /> <br /> Both the Philadelphia and London first editions of Dickinson's Late Regulations are considerably more scarce than his Letters from a Farmer with only a single example of either edition appearing in the auction records in the last quarter century.
