(Founded in 1763 by the Baring family to finance trade with the United States and India and brought to the brink of collapse in 1995 from fraudulent investments): "Has the Legislature of one of the American States legal and constitutional power to contract loans at home and abroad?" The other appearance, 11 May 1842, concerns the Northeast Boundary and is addressed to the Governor of Maine, John Fairfield. A nearly complete set of a rather scarce set with a distinguished provenance. Occasional light to moderate foxing. Near Fine.
