186643052Washington D.C.: n.p. 1866. First edition. A very good copy with inch marginal closed tear light soiling faint marginal stain. Broadside. 6 x 9 1/2 inches. Michigan senator Jacob Merritt Howard 1805-1871 who had worked closely with Lincoln in drafting and passing the Thirteenth Amendment was a strong supporter of his measures including "emergency actions during the secession crisis and advocated 'severe exemplary and speedy punishment of the rebels. He was especially vocal on all matters pertaining to the confiscation of rebel property and the emancipation of slaves. He was also one of the most forceful advocates of the 1863 Conscription Act" ANBO. His ire extended to trying for treason the Confederate leaders. In December he wanted to know why Davis had not been put on trial and now despite it being well-known that Davis did not have complicity in Lincoln's murder he declared in this resolution that Davis be "charged with the crimes of having incited the assassination of Abraham Lincoln President of the United States and with the murder of soldiers of the Unites States held a prisoners of war during the rebellion and other cruel and barbarous practices in violation of the rules and usages of civilized war." Clement C. Clay was also to be tried. It appears that Merritt's resolution never made it to the floor for a second reading as was required by law. Scarce.

186351369Hartford: J.M. Scofield & Co. State Printers 1863. Hardcover. Small 4to. Blind-embossed pebble-grain burgundy cloth with gilt spine lettering and medallion. 384pp. Very good. Spine of otherwise-lovely binding is quite sunned; tight and internally near fine with occasional touch of foxing. Handsome copy of this in-depth collection of daily proceedings of this institution opening with May 6 and closing with July 11. For anyone wanting to study the speeches resolutions motions acts anything and everything that comes before this legislative branch the Senate proceedings are as in-the-weeds as they come. This special copy bears a fine presentation inscription in brown ink on the front flyleaf from Connecticut's lieutenant governor to his eldest son: "Arthur H. Averill / Danbury Nov 24 AD 1863 / With the affection of / Roger Averill." Roger Averill 1809-83 was a notable Connecticut attorney and politician and served as that state's Civil War lieutenant governor from 1862 to 1865 under Governor William B. Buckingham. Arthur H. Averill 1845-94 was the eldest of his six children an attorney who served the city of Danbury. There is a great deal of Civil War content of every sort major and minor buried in these pages. After page 358 the journal switches to "The Executive Journal of the Senate of the State of Connecticut" with second title page opening with mention of "His Honor Roger Averill President." Since Connecticut's lieutenant governor also serves as President of the Senate Averill identified simply as "The President" appears frequently throughout this volume. Here and there are occasional light pencil margin squiggles no doubt where recipient Arthur Averill noted items of interest. J.M. Scofield & Co., State Printers hardcover
