Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Laws of New Hampshire, Vol. 2: Including Public and Private Acts and Resolves and the Royal Commissions and Instructions With Historical and Descriptive Notes, and an Appendix; Province Period, 1702-1745 The administration of Joseph Dudley was for many reasons acceptable and advantageous to the people of New Hampshire. It was crowded with important events. The ever present Allen claim was held by the Governor in some degree of subordina tion to the requirements of Queen Anne's war and other vital interests of England viewed as an empire, and New Hampshire as a subordinate or constituent part of that empire. Kimball, Public Life of Joseph Dudley, passim; editorial notes on the administration and On the contemporary statutes, this volume, pp. 1 - 4, 38 - 44. It was expected that Col. Elizeus Burges would come to America as the successor of Governor Joseph Dudley, and exe cute a commission that had been granted to him as Governor of the colony of Massachusetts, and another intended to make him the executive of the province of New Hampshire. He was, however, induced to decline these offices for a consideration provided through their representatives in England by parties interested In the government in Massachusetts. A commission was issued to George Vaughan, contemporaneously with that of Col. Burges, to be lieutenant-governor of the province, and the successor of Mr. Usher. The commission of the Lieutenant Governor required him to pursue the directions of the com mission and instructions of Governor Burges in the execution of his office. If, however, the commission of Col. Burges had been vacated by his declination, it may be a question whether that of Governor Dudley was not the continuing constitution of the province until the arrival of Governor Shute, and the publication of his commission. Editor's notes on the commis sion of Governor Burges, and the administration of Lieutenant Governor Vaughan, this volume, 166, 167; Kimball, Public Life of Joseph Dudley, 174.

Download or read book Homicide Justified written by Andrew T. Fede and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2017-07-15 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comparative study looks at the laws concerning the murder of slaves by their masters and at how these laws were implemented. Andrew T. Fede cites a wide range of cases—across time, place, and circumstance—to illuminate legal, judicial, and other complexities surrounding this regrettably common occurrence. These laws had evolved to limit in different ways the masters’ rights to severely punish and even kill their slaves while protecting valuable enslaved people, understood as “property,” from wanton destruction by hirers, overseers, and poor whites who did not own slaves. To explore the conflicts of masters’ rights with state and colonial laws, Fede shows how slave homicide law evolved and was enforced not only in the United States but also in ancient Roman, Visigoth, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and British jurisdictions. His comparative approach reveals how legal reforms regarding slave homicide in antebellum times, like past reforms dictated by emperors and kings, were the products of changing perceptions of the interests of the public; of the individual slave owners; and of the slave owners’ families, heirs, and creditors. Although some slave murders came to be regarded as capital offenses, the laws consistently reinforced the second-class status of slaves. This influence, Fede concludes, flowed over into the application of law to free African Americans and would even make itself felt in the legal attitudes that underlay the Jim Crow era.

Download or read book A History of American Law written by Lawrence M. Friedman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-23 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned legal historian Lawrence Friedman presents an accessible and authoritative history of American law from the colonial era to the present day. This fully revised fourth edition incorporates the latest research to bring this classic work into the twenty-first century. In addition to looking closely at timely issues like race relations, the book covers the changing configurations of commercial law, criminal law, family law, and the law of property. Friedman furthermore interrogates the vicissitudes of the legal profession and legal education. The underlying theory of this eminently readable book is that the law is the product of society. In this way, we can view the history of the legal system through a sociological prism as it has evolved over the years.
Download or read book Making Habeas Work written by Eric M. Freedman and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reconsideration of the writ of habeas corpus casts new light on a range of current issues Habeas corpus, the storied Great Writ of Liberty, is a judicial order that requires government officials to produce a prisoner in court, persuade an independent judge of the correctness of their claimed factual and legal justifications for the individual’s imprisonment, or else release the captive. Frequently the officials resist being called to account. Much of the history of the rule of law, including the history being made today, has emerged from the resulting clashes. This book, heavily based on primary sources from the colonial and early national periods and significant original research in the New Hampshire State Archives, enriches our understanding of the past and draws lessons for the present. Using dozens of previously unknown examples, Professor Freedman shows how the writ of habeas corpus has been just one part of an intricate machinery for securing freedom under law, and explores the lessons this history holds for some of today’s most pressing problems including terrorism, the Guantanamo Bay detentions, immigration, Brexit, and domestic violence. Exploring landmark cases of the past - like that of John Peter Zenger - from new angles and expanding the definition of habeas corpus from a formal one to a functional one, Making Habeas Work brings to light the stories of many people previously overlooked (like the free black woman Zipporah, defendant in “the case of the headless baby”) because their cases did not bear the label “habeas corpus.” The resulting insights lead to forward-thinking recommendations for strengthening the rule of law to insure that it endures into the future.
Download or read book Hearing Enslaved Voices written by Sophie White and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on alternative types of slave narratives, especially courtroom testimony, and interrogates how such narratives were produced, the societies (both those that were majority slave societies and those in which slaves were a distinct minority of the population) in which testimony was permitted, and the meanings that can be attached to such narratives. The chapters in this book provide valuable information about the everyday lives—including the inner and spiritual lives—of enslaved African American and Native American individuals in the British and French Atlantic World, from Canada to the Caribbean. It explores slave testimony as a form of autobiographical narrative, and in ways that allow us to foreground enslaved persons’ lived experience as expressed in their own words.

In this brilliant and immensely readable book, Lawrence M. Friedman tells the whole fascinating story of American law from its beginnings in the colonies to the present day. By showing how close the life of the law is to the economic and political life of the country, he makes a complex subject understandable and engrossing.

Now Professor Friedman has completely revised and enlarged his landmark work, incorporating a great deal of new material. The book contains newly expanded notes, a bibliography and a bibliographical essay.
