1812ref. 11748MAY 29 1812. Washington: Way. 1812. 4pp bound in attractive modern quarter calf and marbled boards. Very Good. The Committee attempts to cure the uncertain status of land titles that resulted from the Spanish evacuation of the Mississippi Territory. "Many persons holding lands" under Spanish authority "who were either ignorant of the transfer of the country to the United States or of any legal defect in their titles neglected to obtain patents for their lands" although under Spanish law they had evidently perfected their titles. The Committee recommends respecting those titles especially as "the claims are generally for small tracts of land and in many instances the lands have been inhabited and cultivated for a number of years."

Fall State Printers 1842. xvi 285 pp. Octavo 7-3/4" x 4-3/4". Recent buckram library name and seal to front board black-stamped fillets and title to spine endleaves renewed ink property stamps to pastedowns. Negligible light shelfwear light toning to interior somewhat heavier in places occasional light foxing ink library stamps to front endleaf and verso of title page. $200. Official printing of laws passed by the Mississippi state legislature in 1842. The compilation includes the Mississippi state constitution as ratified in 1832 and a detailed table of contents and index. The volume contains laws that address various aspects of the institution of slavery within the state. There are a number of acts specifically dealing with "free negroes and mulattoes" which generally imposed restrictions on their rights and activities in the antebellum South. The inclusion of the 1832 Mississippi Constitution is significant as it shaped the legal framework of the state during that era notably stating that "The legislature shall have no power to pass laws for the emancipation of slaves without the consent of their owners". The legislature passed resolutions asserting the doctrine of states' rights which was a major political stance at the time in the context of growing sectional tensions over slavery. These acts provide a primary source record of the legal mechanisms used to maintain the system of slavery and white supremacy in a Southern state just two decades before the American Civil War.
