Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Judiciary of Massachusetts: Including the Plymouth and Massachusetts Colonies, the Province of the Massachusetts Bay, and the Commonwealth In the preparation of this work I have gathered fragments before published by me, and woven them with new material into a continuous narrative. I have ventured to add, with some doubts of its pertinence, an introductory chapter, reminiscent in character, which I hope may not be without interest. Judge Emory Washburn published in 1840 a Judicial History of Massachusetts, omitting the judiciary of the Plymouth Colony and of the Commonwealth, the seed and flower of the Massachusetts judicial system, and limiting the scope of his investigations to the Colony and Province of Massachusetts Bay. The present work includes not only the material thus omitted by him, but also much new material within the field covered by his valuable history. The Great Charter of New England, the Patent issued by the Council for New England to the Plymouth Colony in 1621, the Patent issued by the Council to the Plymouth Colony in 1629, the Charter of the Massachusetts Colony, the Charter of the Province of Massachusetts Bay and the Charter explanatory of the same, are placed in an Appendix, where, while convenient for reference, they will not disturb the current of the historical narrative. While I shall be held justly responsible for some of the imperfections, which will doubtless be found in my work, there are others for which defective records are alone accountable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When Deborah Wilson walked through the streets of Salem in 1662 'naked as the day she came into the world, ' her intention was to dramatize the 'nakedness' of Puritan religious thinking. She succeeded only in getting herself 'well whipped' and becoming one of the fascinating human illustrations in [this] informing and engrossing study of crime and its punishment in the early days of Colonial Massachusetts. She was indeed fortunate not to have become one of the grimmer statistics of the time--for the Puritans, in their pursuit of 'Godly justice, ' hanged five Quakers on Boston Common. The story of the 'saints' who founded this 'New England Utopia' has often been told. For the first time, here, is the story of the sinners--in all the vivid, sparkling 17th century prose in which the Saints preserved it. It is a particularly important story since the justice they evolved and dispensed in the Plymouth and Bay colonies from 1620 to 1692 profoundly affected many aspects of criminal justice in America. These 'first beginners, ' as they styled themselves, left a lasting imprint on the laws which govern us today ... This scholarly and absorbing study gives the background of the settlement of these two colonies to show the extent of the legal knowledge and experience of the founders. A concise analysis of the legal system they established follows, and then an account of the changes and developments that took place. All aspects of the law--the lawyers, judges, lawmakers, policemen, criminals, courts, jails, and prisons--are fully considered. The forms of punishment and their frequency are examined. The author has compiled valuable tables of the occurrences of different crimes and their penalties. There is also a comprehensive treatment of the relationship of church and state, and of the civil rights and liberties of the colonists ... What makes this work especially useful to the student as well as the general reader are the concluding sections of each chapter. In short historical summaries, the author brings the subject of each chapter up to date. Thus this is history which not only illuminates the past, but also is directly relevant to the problems and concerns of today"--
