Book excerpt: Excerpt from William West of Scituate, R. I: Farmer, Soldier, Statesman My purpose in collecting data and putting forth this memoir of William West, of Scituate, R. I., is that a forgotten loyal citizen of that State may receive such recognition as his patriotic and zealous work entitles him to, and incidentally to complete an unwritten chapter of family history. One cannot read of the many services rendered his State by William West without being surprised that there is no public record of his death, his burial place, or aside from the works of Beeman and Walker, of his life in Scituate. This little memoir, though fragmentary and lacking in literary style, seeks to set forth all the facts that the author could discover relative to William West's life, and is issued with the hope that it will incite Rhode Island's historians and scholars to more fully investigate his history and complete the work here begun. The writer has spent some twenty-five years in securing the facts herein set forth, having visited the West homestead in Scituate. searched the records there, and talked with some of the oldest Scituate inhabitants; carefully examined the Colonial Records of Rhode Island and Massachusetts, as well as their Vital Records and Town Histories; the records at Washington relative to Rhode Island in the Revolutionary War. and the Pension Records for that State in that war; examined the Census Records for the State for 1771 and 1790; looked through a large number of contemporary State newspapers; corresponded with all the descendants of William West that could be found, and obtained from them family records; read numerous books on early New England and Rhode Island history; and received much valuable information from J. N. Arnold. Rhode Island's historian; Miss Georgiana Guild, genealogist, of Providence; Byron O. Angell and Cyrus Walker, of Scituate, and C. S. Pierce, genealogist, of Springfield. Mass.. to all of whom the thanks of the author are hereby extended. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 1985 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 6 covers the beginnings of federal admiralty and equity jurisprudence, habeas corpus, judicial review, forreign affairs, and the relationship between the national judiciary and state courts. Also included is an appendix of documents pertaining to the question of whether the Supreme Court could issue advisory opinions at the request of the executive branch. A narrative history introduces each case, and the documents are arranged chronologically thereafter. The texts of many of them had to be reconstructed from originals that were severely damaged or written in shorthand. Taken from official court records, as well as related correspondence, lawyers' notes, justices' notes and opinions, newspaper commentary, and pamphlets, these documents provide critical material with which to assess the initial development of federal court practice and procedure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first Chief Justice of the United States, John Jay faced many unique challenges. When the stability and success of the new nation were far from certain, a body of federalized American law had to be created from scratch. In The First Chief Justice, New York State Appellate Judge Mark C. Dillon uncovers, for the first time, how Jay's personal, educational, and professional experiences—before, during, and after the Revolutionary War—shaped both the establishment of the first system of federal courts from 1789 to 1795 and Jay's approach to deciding the earliest cases heard by the Supreme Court. Dillon takes us on a fascinating journey of a task accomplished by constant travel on horseback to the nation's far reaches, with Jay adeptly handling the Washington administration, Congress, lawyers, politicians, and judicial colleagues. The book includes the history of each of the nine cases decided by Jay when he was Chief Justice, many of which have proven with time to have enduring historical significance. The First Chief Justice will appeal to anyone interested in the establishment of the US federal court system and early American history.
