Opinions concerning the 7th article of the treaty. Transcriptions in an unidentified hand. Bound in original half calf with marbled paper boards. Jay's Treaty was negotiated by Supreme Court Chief Justice John Jay and signed on 19 Nov. 1794. It stipulated that Britain would leave western posts by 1 June 1796; that lands on either side of the border, as well as that of the Mississippi River would be open to both countries; and that American shipping would not be hindered in trade with British possessions. A commission was established to settle debts to Britain and outstanding boundary problems. The donor Christopher Gore served as member on the commission and wrote numerous opinions contained in these volumes. MS Am 2496. Houghton Library, Harvard University. |
