The deployment of the word ‘system’ is surveyed, beginning with The Federalist essays, the focus being on the works of Alexander Hamilton and James Madison. In the second tranche of works, their efforts – now as opponents – in the bank bill debate are examined along with the appearance of ‘system’ in the Neutrality Proclamation debates; in the third tranche, Hamilton’s public letters (from his retirement as Secretary of the Treasury to his death in 1804) are surveyed; the fourth consists of Madison’s works included in Farrand’s volume 3 of his Records of the Federal Convention.

The third volume of Farrand’s Records of the Federal Convention contains 58 entries written by James Madison after March 3, 1817, almost entirely of public correspondence; OCL adds his Detached Memoranda (his second political testament) to these post-retirement writings. OCL spreads Madison’s deployment of ‘constitution’ through an expanded 11 way grid of the possible semantic values.
