Condition: Very Good. In 1631, the Court of Chivalry staged one of its last great performances: a high-stakes appeal of treason brought by Donald, Lord Rea, against David Ramsey, culminating in a proposed trial by combat. Held in the opulent Painted Chamber at Westminster, the proceedings echoed a feudal past, gloves were thrown, noblemen summoned, and ceremonial weapons brandished. Ramsey, dubbed "Ramsey Redhead" for his flamboyant style, stood accused in a drama thick with Scottish-English tensions and political intrigue, implicating even the Duke of Hamilton. The case merged archaic legal ritual with modern anxieties, revealing a state caught between chivalric pageantry and emerging central authority. It was not justice by sword, but justice by symbolism and a final flourish for a fading jurisdiction. 19 pages, printed in double columns. Printed between 1809 and 1826, these historic documents are vivid extracts from Cobbett's State Trials; pages from the courtroom record that preserve the voices, arguments, and verdicts which helped shape the course of British justice and still echo through its constitutional legacy. Over two centuries old, each leaf is a tangible fragment of legal history, compelling, original, and rarely encountered outside institutional collections. These are not reprints or replicas, but authentic 19th-century printings that are rich in drama, and steeped in history. This particular trial report has been removed from a volume of Cobbett's State Trials and is now preserved in a modern card cover for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery.
