Uphaus Willard et al.
Ephemera relating to the incarceration of Willard Uphaus in New Hampshire in 1960
No Place: No Publisher 1960. Unbound. Good. Ephemera relating to the incarceration of Willard Uphaus in New Hampshire in 1960.

The brochure letter from Uphaus provides his supporters with his version of events surrounding his jailing alluding to the World Fellowship of which he was a member and asserting the importance of not informing on others. The double sided newsletter date October 1960 discusses the background of the Uphaus case as well as referring to other impending cases groups which are active on Uphaus' and other behalf etc. The third letter is titled 'Homage to Uphaus Week Oct. 17-23' and solicits actions on his behalf including going door to door writing notes etc. With a guide to expected arguments and possible counter-arguments. This was also written by Arthur Harvey. Willard Uphaus was a pacifist preacher who was jailed for one year in New Hampshire for refusing to reveal guests at the World Fellowship of Faiths in Conway New Hampshire. Investigated by the NH attorney general Uphaus cooperated with him relating to his activities but would not turn over the names of others at the group. This investigation was part of a larger action investigating communist activities. The Supreme Court of the United States upheld his conviction and he spent a year in jail with this generating many protest marches and demonstrations see New York Times obituary for previous information. All pieces in GOOD or slightly better condition. Minor soiling some fold creases wrinkling and edgewear present. Some chipping and tearing along the extremities with minor loss. Paper clip rust stain to the brochure and small sheet with staining along the left edge of the brochure. Previous bookseller's price note on the brochure. No Publisher unknown

Letter from the Secretary of the Treasury Accompanying a report of the Solicitor of the Treasury relative to the claim of the Choctaw Indians known as the "Net Proceeds Claim." 42d Congress 2d Session. Ex. Doc. No. 87. Senate
No Place: No Publisher. Pamphlet. Good. No publisher place or date. Presumed Government Printing Office Washington 1872. Pamphlet disbound from a larger work and lacking and wrappers originally issued. 5 pp. plus 2 blank leaves at the rear. A short piece recalling the various points of an 1820 treaty between the United States and the Choctaw Indians as well as subsequent treaties and claims arising from the treaty and its apparent lack of enforcement by the US government. The original treaty gave members of the Choctaw tribe who chose to become citizens of the United States a parcel of land. However it appears most of those Native Americans were not given land in exchange for their agreements and were instead driven off the land. This document sums up financial claims and what the potential course of action of the US government would be including not paying the claims. GOOD condition. Creasing and chipping at the corners. General toning. Minor curling. Fore edge and spine a bit rough and chipped. No Publisher unknown
