Item description from seller

31, [1 blank] pp. Stitched, untrimmed. Wrapper remnant in blank margin of title page. Very Good. Contemporary signature of Thos. Stow Ranney, Esqr. A scarce piece in the puzzle that finally became the New Hampshire Constitution, after serial submissions to the voters of that State. The Convention notes here that, in the most recent vote, "many articles are approved by two thirds of the voters; and many are not approved, by reason whereof said amendments are rendered inconsistant, and contradictory." With this pamphlet, the Convention tries to get it right. One interesting provision permits only Protestants to stand for election to the State Senate. According to NAIP, printing began in Dover in 1791, with six imprints; Wemyss dates Dover printings from 1790. Evans 24577. 166 Eberstadt 97. Bristol B8079. NAIP w036223 [8].
