179730649Hartford: Printed by Elisha Babcock 1797. First Edition. Wraps. Fair. Wraps. 39 pages. Stitched wraps with title page 1. Untrimmed. Light to moderate scattered toning and brown spots. Old clear tape repair and small hole on title page no loss of text. Remnants of outer wrap on front joint. Dull green strip of linen tape on rear blank joint. The author's statement on the verso of the title page reads "This pamphlet is an actual though not a literal answer to the "State of Facts" published by the Georgia Companies see Howes G 126. It contains the outlines of the present state of Georgia business and a brief sketch of the arguments on both sides with such Commentaries as the compass of the work would allow. The general tenor of it especially that part which treats of the Chancery powers of our Courts will be found applicable to the cases of all who have suffered by any kind of Land Speculation." Howes B 471; Evans 31830; DeRenne 278; Sabin 5593. From Wikipedia; The Yazoo land scandal Yazoo fraud Yazoo land fraud or Yazoo land controversy was a massive real estate fraud perpetrated in the mid-1790's by Georgia governor George Mathews1 and the Georgia General Assembly. Georgia politicians sold large tracts of territory in the Yazoo lands in what are now portions of the present-day states of Alabama and Mississippi to political insiders at very low prices in 1794. Although the law enabling the sales was overturned by reformers the following year its ability to do so was challenged in the courts eventually reaching the US Supreme Court. In the landmark decision in Fletcher v. Peck 1810 the Court ruled that the contracts were binding and the state could not retroactively invalidate the earlier land sales. It was one of the first times the Supreme Court had overturned a state law and it justified many claims for those lands. Some of the lands sold by the state in 1794 had been shortly thereafter resold to innocent third parties greatly complicating the litigation. In 1802 because of the ongoing controversy Georgia ceded all of its claims2 to lands west of its modern border to the U.S. government in exchange for which the government paid cash and assumed the legal liabilities. Claims involving the land purchases were not fully resolved until legislation passed in 1814 established a claims-resolution fund. The Yazoo land fraud is often conflated with the Pine Barrens speculation another land scandal which took place in east Georgia at about the same time. In this case the state's high-ranking officials were making multiple gifts of land grants for the same parcels resulting in the issuance of grants totaling much more land than was available in the state of Georgia.

An endorsement to an arrest warrant for the confiscation of goods belonging to Samuel Barrow -- 1 page 11.5 x 10 inches with endorsement on verso Albany New York August 5 1787 -- ordered by Revolutionary War patriot and then-Chief Justice of the New York Supreme Court Richard Morris in very small part: "The people of New York - To The Sheriff of the County of Richmond - Greeting. We command you that of the Goods and Chattels Land and Tenements of the aforesaid Samuel Barrow in your Bailiwick being Debt in the sum of four-hundred and eighty pounds.for damages.have you whole monies before us at our City of Albany.Richard Morris Chief Justice." Bancker has placed his endorsement on the verso: "The within Saml. Barrows hasth Goods or Chattels in my Bailiwick whereof the Debt and damages or any part thereof can be made." It should be noted that the entire document is in the hand of and signed by: John McKesson 1734 - 1798 an Anti-Federalist New York Attorney and staunch Revolutionary War patriot who was appointed to the Provincial Convention 1775 all four Provincial Congresses 1775 - 1777 and to the First and Second Councils of Safety. He also served as clerk of the State Assembly and to the Ratifying Convention 1788 of which he is said to have participated in the hostile negotiations which eventually led to New York finally ratifying the U.S. Constitution. This document is in very good condition with heavy natural folds and coincidentally was signed by Bancker and McKesson on the very day August 5 1787 that the first draft of the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights was completed. American patriot and major in the American Revolution who as a representative of Richmond County Staten Island cast an important vote in the ratification of the United States Constitution by the state of New York. The final vote was 30 to 27 and the failure to ratify might may have brought down the fledgling nation. Soon after the Revolutionary War Bancker was appointed Sheriff of the County of Richmond. unknown books
