184619196Detroit Pontiac: Printed for the Publisher 1846. First edition. Stitching partially perished but sheets still holding; some browning to the fore-edges of the text block a little dust-soiling; a very good copy. Unbound pamphlet stitched as issued 8.25 x 5.25 inches 148 pages. And here I must record that Mr. Allen had good reason to suppose me drunk or insane; in the house of Mr. Field I have him either $55 or $65 for which I took his note; I have him an order for near $40 on H. C. Knight and the half was to be given to help to build an Old School church. . . . Mr. Allen knowing his own character drew the conclusion justly that if I had been sober I would never have trusted him with a hundred dollars." A lively and at times mordantly humorous defense by the Rev. Nicoll against charges of drunkenness charging a conspiracy at the hands of the Rev. Lemuel Bates working through the cat's paw of James S. Allen himself supposedly in thrall to Mrs. Bates and doing her bidding; Nicoll had challenged Bates's fitness to admission to the Presbytery of Michigan suggesting in part "common fame says that he Bates continues his old practices of lounging about stores visiting their cellars to look at their vinegar but really to drink their liquors; continues to be the as regardless of truth as ever--witness his speech on his overture and many other things. It is said that he has been seen drunk in the streets of Detroit and in the streets of Pontiac in less than a year." Questions of procedure allegations against the chastity of Mrs. Bates comparison to a nest of rattlesnakes etc. etc. all suggest that ecclesiastical polity of early Michigan possessed of a vigor and engagement rarely seen today. Not noted in the American Imprints Michigan survey; the scattered holdings on OCLC all generally suggest a Michigan imprint and though the length of this piece seems possible from a Pontiac press it seems more likely that Nicoll had it printed up in Detroit.

183712751Washington 1837. 8vo. 3 pp. <br><br>The Michigan state Senate and House argue in favor of expunging the censure resolution against President Andrew Jackson from the Senate Journal and instruct the state's U.S. Senators to vote in favor of the move. On 28 March 1834 Clay's anti-Jackson coalition in the Senate censured Jackson for assuming power not conferred by the Constitution by moving to withdraw federal deposits from the bank dismissing the Secretary of the Treasury for not carrying out this executive decision and for refusing to hand over a paper he had read to his cabinet relating to that issue. Three years later on 16 January 1837 with the Democrats having regained power in the Senate the censure was removed from the Senate Journal with great fanfare. The removal of the censure is here characterized as "an act of justice to the venerable Chief Magistrate whose character it unjustly assails and as erasing from the permanent history of the country a stain upon its legislative character."
