List of Images of Pages of Printed Cases and Other Documents
in the Hamilton College Library

 
 

The Hamilton College Library holds in their Beinecke Lesser Antilles Collection both printed cases and manuscript documents that are relevant to Caribbean Appeals. Their friendly co-operation in allowing us to make the images of the printed cases, providing us with PDFs of images of the manuscript items, and licensing us to publish those that are displayed here is gratefully acknowledged.

For the printed cases, clicking on any of the page links below will bring you to an image of the page listed embedded in an HTML frame. You may download and use a single copy of the image only for purposes of private study, research, or teaching. You can navigate between the pages either by using the arrows at the top and bottom of the image frame or by returning to this page, which will remain in a separate tab or window. The images are large, so that the small print can be read. For the PDFs, clicking on the link below will bring you directly to the relevant PDF. The same restrictions apply to the use of the PDFs as apply to the images of the printed cases.

Images copyright © 2013, 2016 by the Ames Foundation. These images are provided for private, non-commercial, research, and teaching purposes only. Any other use requires the permission of the Ames Foundation and the Hamilton College Library.

Taylors Hall 10th Octr. 1765.” This is clearly the same set of facts as are involved in the appeal, but considering the date, the opinion seems to have been rendered before the appeal was taken)
