The cover letter is pre-addressed to the Attorney General and Edward J. Ennis the director of the Justice Department's Alien Enemy Control Unit in Washington D.C. The form letter begins "I wish to renounce my United States nationality in accordance with the recent government promulgation so I am enclosing a typewritten copy of this application form executed by me."

These "disloyal segregees" were sent to Tule Lake where they suffered ostracization from fellow internees poorer living conditions inferior food and harsher treatment from American military guards among other indignities. There were even disagreements among the segregated internees as some of them truly wished for repatriation to Japan and identified as Japanese while others viewed this group as disloyal and undeserving of assistance or relief. In other words not only were these internees seen as disloyal by their own government but also by some of their fellow internees. Their feeling of dislocation ran deep. Eventually many of these segregees sought to renounce their American citizenship and repatriate to Japan. The present forms were many internees' first step in this process. November unknown

1917144634Dawson: Judge Macalulay 1917. Folio. 18 pages of hand corrected typescript on light gray paper. A bit soiled but overall clean and not brittle. Two pages of folio hand written notes in Justice Macaulay's hand. Three smaller pages of hand written notes towards the end. Signed in a hand I cannot make out. The whole bundle held together with the original paper clip. Included with the bundle is a long typed transcript of an article entitled "The Flowering Stump" by Vernon La Chance published in Maclean's in 15 October 1933 Macaulay was a Judge of the Territorial Court Dawson. He was elevated to the Bench in 1902 and preceded over the Court in the Yukon Territory for 39 years. This document provides Macalulay's report on the trial and appeal of Rokuichi Yoshioka a Japanese born Dawson fox farmer. He was accused tried and convicted of the crime by a jury. The trial was 6 days long after which the accused was convicted and hanged on the 23rd of November 1917. I am not sure what happened with the appeal. Although not a Gold Rush item certainly a very interesting document related to a murder in Dawson City. It must have been sensational and a major event in Dawson. Constable Stallworthy of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police was the investigating officer and provided testimony during the trial. Over the years I have had a number of primary source documents like this but nothing for Dawson and only one other murder before. This document or another copy was addressed To The Honorable The Secretary of State for Canada in Ottawa. Usually documents like this do not survive. A rare and interesting item. 1917 Judge Macalulay unknown

Unbound as issued. Pinholes at gutter some edge chipping and small dents brown stain affecting the upper portion throughout. Otherwise a good well-preserved copy. First edition. Signed at foot by a municipal officer Diez de la Puente. One-page contemporary manuscript on p. 3 relating to the administration of the tax. Unbound as issued. 4 last 2 blank p. <p><br /> Unrecorded 1601 ordinance from Salamanca enforcing the Armada-era servicio de millones Spain’s foundational fiscal levy.<br /> <p><p><br /> Printed ordinance issued by the municipal council of Salamanca implementing the royal tax known as the servicio de los dieciocho millones. In accordance with the royal cédula of 9 February 1601 the Concejo Justicia y Regimiento instructs subordinate towns and villages to collect an eighth part of all wine and olive oil sold to be remitted through a chain of local receivers. The text regulates how wine and oil must be measured recorded and taxed forbids additional repartimientos and orders prompt transfer of funds to the city’s main treasury. Dated at Salamanca 10 March 1601 and naming four municipal commissioners appointed for its execution it represents the earliest stage of local enforcement of Philip III’s fiscal scheme transforming the national levy into a functioning municipal excise. A contemporary handwritten endorsement below the text signed by Diez de la Puente attests its execution. Accompanying the printed ordinance is a contemporary manuscript headed on p. 3 “Dudas que se ofrecen en la administración de las sisas†listing practical questions concerning the execution of the tax—registration and measurement of goods roles of administrators and receivers form of payment penalties and conditions of tax farming arrendamiento.<br /> <p><p><br /> The servicio de los dieciocho millones formed part of the broader system of millones taxes created by the Cortes of Castile to meet the Crown’s desperate financial needs after the prolonged wars of Philip II. The servicio de millones had first been introduced by royal request and approved by the Cortes on 4 April 1590 conceived to raise eight million ducats over six years to finance the royal expenditure associated with the Armada campaign against England and other military commitments. Rather than remaining temporary it evolved into a regular levy on six staple items—wine oil vinegar meat soap and tallow candles—collected through local sisas and eventually forming the backbone of Castile’s fiscal structure. By 1600–1601 under Philip III the scheme was renewed and expanded to eighteen million ducats its collection entrusted to municipal governments such as Salamanca’s Concejo Justicia y Regimiento. As described in Bartolomé Yun Casalilla’s Sobre la transición al capitalismo en Castilla this marked a transition from feudal income to a centralized fiscal system financed through municipal taxation embedding local economies within the machinery of the Habsburg war state. The present ordinance captures this process of consolidation—when the monarchy sought tighter control over municipal revenues demanded proper accounting and remittance of surpluses and aimed to prevent arbitrary over-taxation—reflecting both the fiscal strain and administrative centralization characteristic of early-seventeenth-century Spain.<br /> <p><p><br /> Reference: Yun Casalilla B. 1987.
