A collection of 51 acts passed in the second session of the twelfth Parliament of Great Britain with tables listing the titles of the public acts and summaries of 96 private acts. Some of the more interesting acts include several acts regulating trade in America and an act allowing New York to pass an act "for the creating and issuing upon Loan Paper Bills of Credit to a certain Amount; and to make the same a Legal Tender." The right to issue paper money had been heavily restricted by the Currency Acts of 1751 and 1764 but after New York's government argued that these acts hindered full compliance with the Quartering Act Parliament relented and allowed New York to issue paper currency for public but not private debts. This concession was extended to the other colonies in 1773. Acts XXXIV dealing with the attempts to develop a successful marine chronometer and XLIV regulating mercantile fraud and hackney coaches are not present in our volume.

Two acts of Parliament consolidating and regulating turnpike trusts in the wake of the "turnpike boom" of the late eighteenth century. Turnpike trusts established by individual acts of Parliament had the power to collect tolls that would be used for road maintenance. Before the widespread use of these trusts local parishes were responsible for raising revenue via taxation and repairing highways and often found the task difficult. The first act the Turnpike Act of 1766 established basic rules for drivers and provided for the erection of milestones to indicate the distance between towns. The second act the Highways Act 1766 expanded on provisions and standards for road repair. The volume includes a thorough 62 pp. index to both acts. The ESTC lists a 64 pp. index and an additional act from 1768. Our 62 pp. index appears complete and we have seen another copy without this additional act. As in the ESTC record our copy lacks leaf A1 which may have been blank or unissued. OCLC and the ESTC locate 2 copies of this title British Library Cardiff University.

1809réf. 2120802Folio 4pp. with docket on fourth page "George Harrison Gent. Not stamped. Mr. Solicitor declines at present signing the Bill for this patent. S.G. Wyatt"; folded and unbound as issued in very good state of preservation. A fascinating document which seems however not after all to have ended in a grant for a patent. George Harrison claims that "he is in possession of an invention communicated to him by an ingenious individual of a new method or methods of conveying information from one apartment of a house to another by means of an apparatus which he calls a "Domestic Telegraph" which invention he conceives will be of great public utility. That the same is entirely new and has never been practised or used in this country by any other person or persons to the best of his knowledge & belief". George Harrison not only does not disclose the name of the inventor he also petitions for the patent to be in his own name. No such patent in Harrison's name is included in Woodcroft's definitive Alphabetical Index. It is possibly that Harrison was trying to be a bit too clever as the award of a patent was conditional on Harrison producing "a particular description of the nature of the said invention and in what manner the same is to be performed". George III's signature here seems in some way to illustrate both his mental illness and his approaching blindness. Little more than a year after signing this document he became dangerously ill and finally accepted the need for the 1811 Regency Act. In 1809 Lord Liverpool was Home Secretary in the Duke of Portland's government.

réf. 560232 hand-coloured woodcuts copied from the illustrations in The Universal Magazine for October and November 1761 the first taken as the Archbishop of Canterbury places the Crown on the King's head is lettered with explanations of the crowded scene including at h 'The Dukes of Normandie and Acquitain and other great officers' the second similarly explained shows the King's Champion flanked by the Earl Marshal and Lord High Constable riding up the centre between the long tables watched by the diners and the others present in the galleries printed within a 'Greek Key' border both referring to 22nd September 1761 laid down on two separate album leaves 10" x 7¾" with other items on the versos the two prints no date circa edges worn and border trimmed in places without loss to text or image The original articles of 1761 explain the role at the Dinner of the King's Champion who challenged any one to assert that George III was not their lawful sovereign and the 'Dukes of Normandy and Aquitaine' at the Coronation. The French King had anciently a council of twelve great Peers 6 lay and 6 ecclesiastic. Long after the council ceased to function the ecclesiastics attended at Reims but the lay peerages had became vested in the crown. So the King appointed people to represent his lay peerages. Henry II liked this idea which was last used in 1761 given that in 1801 Great Britain renounced all claims to France and the use of the lilies on her coat of arms. On the versos are 1 a pleasing engraving of Bouverie Hall Chart next Sutton Valence Kent and 2 a number of cuttings including temperance verses and the monument to Captain Charles Colby of the 98th Dragoons killed by a tiger at 'Rawal Pinde' 27th March 1852. unknown
