Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Province of New Jersey: 1664-1738; Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, in the Faculty of Political Science, Columbia University The chief object of this study is to give an account of the political institutions of New Jersey during the period of her executive union with New York. The chapters on the proprietary period were originally prepared as introductory. A discussion of the economic and social development of the province is not a part of the problem. The most important original sources in print used in this work are the New Jersey Archives, the New York Colonial Documents, Learning and Spicer´s Grants and Concessions and the Colonial Laws of Nevill and Allison. Nevill and Allison, however, give many important statutes only by title. Most, though not all, of the missing acts are to be found in the original Bradford prints in the Charlemagne Tower Collection of Colonial Law in the library of the Pennsylvania Historical Society. The rare Elizabethtown Bill in Chancery and the still rarer Answer to the Bill give invaluable information as to the land controversy in East Jersey. Their statements have, however, been received with caution as the arguments of contending lawyers. The Journal of the General Assembly for the union period has been published (Jersey City, 1872) up to the end of Ingoldsby´s administration. The rest is in manuscript in the State Library at Trenton.
