About this Item
12pp [pp. 317-328], folio, disbound, partly loosened, moderate tanning, scattered foxing. Good to Good+. One of three issues, the others from New Haven and Hartford (which Evans calls "the official issue"). The first Act illustrates the difficulties of living under the Articles of Confederation, which-- among other weaknesses-- had failed to grant Congress power over foreign commerce. Connecticut thus passes here an Act "to vest Congress with certain Powers for the Purpose of enabling them to secure to the Citizens of the United States reciprocal Advantages in their Commerce with foreign Nations." Other Acts authorize taxes and duties, amend a tax for repairing the Light-House near the Port of New London, and establish Middlesex County. Evans 18965. Bates 257. Seller Inventory # 3541
