It seems long since I saw you, Merrill, though it is only six or seven months since we were together in the west. You would have been delighted with the big white topped waves that we saw on our sail to New York. Our little …

A Treatise On The Constitutional Limitations Which Rest Upon The Legislative Power Of The States Of The American Union, Thomas M. Cooley Dec 1867

A Treatise On The Constitutional Limitations Which Rest Upon The Legislative Power Of The States Of The American Union, Thomas M. Cooley

Books

“In these pages the author has faithfully endeavored to state the law as it has been settled by the authorities, rather than to present his own views. At the same time he will not attempt to deny -- what will probably be sufficiently apparent -- that he has written in full sympathy with all those restraints which the caution of the fathers has imposed upon the exercise of the powers of government, and with greater faith in the checks and balances of our republican system, and in correct conclusions by the general public sentiment, than in a judicious, prudent, and …

certainly not less than half a dozen young gents made their way over to shake hands and say well done, and the girls unanimously exclaimed splendid, splendid! that's the best we've had tonight, I also sang in two quartetts, and by the way Prof. Graham has taken a notion into his head to call me away over to the other side of the assembly room, to sing alto, so I have to sit right by him, and make wailing sounds, which great honor I do not entirely appreciate. But alas! alas!
