Waterstain -- name still quite readable -- a bit wavy but covers about the right third of both leaves as folded. No information as to date or location.

Abraham Thornton a bricklayer was accused of the rape and murder of Mary Ashford when she was found dead the morning after a dance where the two had been seen together. Thornton admitted that the two had been consensually intimate but denied the charges of rape and murder. Eyewitness accounts backed up his story and in the absence of other evidence he was acquitted of both charges. Public outcry around his acquittal led to Mary's brother William invoking an "appeal of murder." This uncommon legal practice allowed a retrial of a defendant acquitted for murder but crucially gave the defendant the right to trial by battle. Thornton invoked that right and was released after William Ashford declined the challenge. The case resulted in the abolition of appeals by murder and thus the end of trial by battle. Despite his protestations of innocence the public was thoroughly convinced of his guilt. Unable to lead a normal life Thornton moved to the United States and settled in Baltimore Maryland.

1956réf. 184698Pretoria: The Government Printer 1956. A major moment in South African history First edition of the indictment for the "Treason Trial" in which Nelson Mandela and almost the entire anti-apartheid leadership were prosecuted. One defendant Ahmed Kathrada has signed beside his name; the signature was acquired by a collector in recent years. "The core of the treason charge related to a momentous - and for the government disconcerting - event at Kliptown on the outskirts of Johannesburg on 25-26 June 1955. The delegates were drawn from the ranks of the Congress Alliance a coalition of race-based anti-apartheid groups - the ANC still Africans only the Indian Congresses the Coloured People's Congress and the white mix of communists and non-communists. They had come together to draw up the country's first democratic constitution. Out of the deliberations came the endorsement of a Freedom Charter which to western eyes was an unexceptionable statement of democratic principles and equal rights owing something to the UN Charter but virtually nothing to the Communist Manifesto" Herbstein pp. 28-9. In response 156 individuals who attended or were associated with the meeting were arrested under the 1950 Suppression of Communism Act. The trial helped unite the anti-apartheid movement and attracted worldwide support for the struggle and international condemnation of the South African government. The trial lasted over four years after which all the accused were acquitted. However soon after Mandela and other defendants were imprisoned following the Rivonia Trial. 3 vols bound in 1 as issued folio.

ROSENBERG TRIAL - BLOCH, Emanuel HBiblio.com

Legal brief submitted to appeal the verdict of the Rosenberg trial.

1951réf. 1903891951. The failed appeal against the "trial of the century" One of very few copies of Emanuel Bloch's appeal seeking to overturn the prosecution of the Rosenbergs at their infamous trial signed by Bloch for submission to the Court of Appeals on the final page. Bloch 1901-1954 an attorney who focused on civil rights was known for defending clients associated with left-wing and communist causes. The Rosenbergs communists accused of sending atomic secrets to the Soviets chose Bloch to lead their defence. The court found the Rosenbergs guilty of espionage in March 1951 and sentenced them to death in April following a trial widely criticized as prejudiced and motivated by Cold War hysteria. J. Edgar Hoover dubbed the case which attracted worldwide attention "the trial of the century". The Rosenbergs were granted time to prepare the appeal which Bloch submitted to the Circuit Court on 5 November 1951. Comprising 143 pages of argument extensively referenced against other legal cases and with an index Bloch sets forth his legal case. It rests on three grounds: the government had not established definite guilt the Rosenbergs had not been granted a fair trial and the "cruel and unusual punishment" violated the eighth amendment. Besides the constitutional grounding Bloch emphasizes the "frantic atmosphere" in which the Rosenbergs were arrested placing the trial within the context of the panic caused by the Soviet Union's acquisition of the atomic bomb. The appeal was denied by the three judges on the court on 25 February 1952. They reported they had carefully examined the trial record against Bloch's appeal and had found the death sentence was constitutional and would stand. Following the defeat Bloch filed a further appeal with the Supreme Court which declined to review the case. A stay on execution was granted to appeal to President Eisenhower who denied the petition. Various other legal challenges the last of which reached the Supreme Court also failed. Despite an international campaign for clemency backed by the Pope and Albert Einstein the Rosenbergs were executed on 19 June 1953. Despite the failure of Bloch's appeal his brief greatly impressed the Rosenbergs. Julius wrote to Ethel on 4 November 1951 "I read the brief and I wrote Manny Bloch telling him what a stupendous job he did and how everlastingly grateful we are for his tireless efforts for us. Darling the brief is a legal masterpiece and in addition is a literary gem. Although I don't have the background to really pass on the legal fine points I can attest to its excellent organization its meticulousness in presenting in a fair light our case the devastating logic of his points and the tremendous assiduous effort Manny exerted in preparing this document. Believe me it's a priceless piece of work from a great man. How proud we are to be considered his friends. I intend to reread it a number of times so I'll be able to better understand some of the legal points raised" The Rosenberg Letters 2013 pp. 253-4. Bloch is often seen as a lawyer unsuited to the case more suited to civil rights work than a major criminal trial. His failure to interrogate properly the government's key witness Harry Gold has been much criticized. This appeal shifted more to Bloch's speciality of constitutional and civil rights probably constitutes a stronger legal case than that which he presented in the original trial. Nonetheless the Rosenbergs were very confident in him and he became a close friend. Bloch delivered the eulogy at their funeral and took guardianship of their sons though he died soon afterwards of a heart attack. This copy of the brief is evidently one of a small number produced for official use alongside the copies which each Rosenberg received. This copy was deposited in the Civil Rights Division of the American Jewish Committee - it is marked as their file copy and subsequently "withdrawn". It is unknown how they acquired the brief - the American Jewish Committee pointedly distanced themselves from the case likely to avoid the association of Jews with communism and treachery which the case did much to encourage among the public. An inscription on the first page reads "Return to Ted Leskes" - Theodore Leskes 1908-1964 was director of the legal division of the American Jewish Committee focusing on civil rights and discrimination. We trace only one other example of the brief at the University of Kansas and no other copy in commerce. Quarto 285 x 217 mm. Containing 154 mimeographed leaves printed recto only paginated comprising i-xi index 143 pages of contents firmly staple-bound in "Accopress binder" an early likely original binding printed title page mounted to front of binder. Housed in a black cloth flat-back box by the Chelsea Bindery. Stamps of American Jewish Committee to front cover and p. i verso. Chipping around title on front cover reinforced with tape at extremities slight wear to binder extremities contents a little toned else clean. A good copy. hardcover

Barclay concurrently issued this work with a Cleveland imprint Great Western Publishing Company. "Jim Fisk. was a financial wonder in New York in 1872. Edward Stokes had been associated with him in the oil business but they had become engaged in a bitter legal battle which originated when Stokes stole Fisk's mistress Josie Mansfield." This classic Barclay sensation pamphlet captures one of the most notorious crimes of New York's Gilded Age-a volatile cocktail of corporate espionage blackmail and romantic betrayal. After a bitter falling out over the Erie Railroad-backed oil business and the affections of Josie Mansfield Fisk and Stokes engaged in a flurry of litigious retaliation including charges of embezzlement and false imprisonment. The boiling point was reached on January 6 1872 following a humiliating police court cross-examination of Mansfield regarding her relations with Fisk and the threatened publication of his financial secrets. In a fury Stokes tracked the flamboyant "Jubilee Jim" to the Broadway Central Hotel and fatally shot him on the grand staircase. Following two sensational trials a high-powered defense team managed to mitigate the charge resulting in a controversial conviction for third-degree manslaughter. The twelve dramatic full-page woodcuts vividly illustrate the protagonists the assassination scene and the subsequent courtroom theater characteristic of Barclay's highly sought-after true crime publications.
