Item description from seller

Volume II only (of five volumes), covering the period 1758 - 1761. Fifth edition, corrected. 21 cm. [8], [653] - 1233, [1, blank], plus an alphabetical [58 pp.] Table of Principle Matters Contained in this Volume (one page trimmed closely at the margin taking a few letters). This copy belonged to John C. Calhoun (1782-1850), U.S. Congressman and Senator, Secretary of War during Pres. Monroe's administration, Secretary of State for Polk and Tyler, and Vice President for both John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson; and then to his cousin and former law partner Patrick Noble (1787-1840). Both of their signatures on the front flyleaf, Calhoun's signature struck through, and Noble's added. Bound in old calf, skinned, front board detached, rear board nearly so, spine ends chipped and spine cracked vertically. Gilt stamped red morocco spine label worn. Patrick Noble, born in Abbebille, South Carolina, graduated from the College of New Jersey in 1806. He returned to South Carolina and began the practice of law with Calhoun in 1809. When Calhoun was elected to Congress in 1811, Noble continued the work. They often exchanged letters over the years, with Noble seeking Calhoun's advice on politics and Calhoun asking Noble to look after his law clients. Noble was elected to the South Carolina House of Representatives in 1814 and served for ten years. He was later elected Lieutenant Governor, and then a State Senator before becoming Governor in 1838. He died in office in 1840. Noble and Calhoun shared views on nullification and states rights. [see: Alice Noble Waring's article "Letters of John C. Calhoun to Patrick Noble, 1812 -1837," in the Journal of Southern History, Vol. 16, No. 1 (Feb. 1950), pp. 64-73].…
