Macluarin intended this collection for law students, those "who are called upon the constitution to serve as jurymen" and general readers seeking amusement. "[C]riminal cases, few of which are unintelligible to any person of education, may justly claim a more general attention: for no sum of money, no portion of land, can give rise to a judicial context, equally interesting with that in which the life or liberty of a man is at stake" (iii).

First published in 1694, with the Appendix appearing here for the first time. This work "criticized existing funds and set forth the details of his proposed land bank to be founded upon the subscriptions of land by copyholders and freeholders. [Briscoe] proposed the issuing of bills of credit 'being a new Species of Money, and to all Intents and Purposes as useful as Money.' Despite having his plans rejected by a Commons committee in 1695 Briscoe opened the books for subscription to the National Land Bank on 11 June 1695. With the initial target of ?100,000 in land subscriptions met, a meeting was held on 10 September to establish a committee for the bank. Many failed to pay their initial installments, and consequently the bank did very little business in the early months. Subscription books were opened at the end of May 1696 but very little was subscribed, and on 11 June one contemporary observed that the 'land bank makes but little progress.' The failure of this scheme has been attributed not only to the shortage of coin in this year, and the financial climate more generally, but also to 'public opinion' which appeared 'to have been against the venture.' Both banks, however, continued separately, with Brisc.

Dei Delitti e Delle Pene (1764) was the first systematic study of the principles of crime and punishment. Infused with the spirit of the Enlightenment, its advocacy of crime prevention and the abolition of torture and capital punishment marked a significant advance in criminological thought, which had changed little since the medieval era. It had a profound influence on the development of criminal law. It was especially influential among American thinkers, who saw Beccaria as a source of enlightened ideas to reform English common law. Though a matter of some debate, the first American edition was published in Charleston, SC, in 1777. (Earlier American imprints, including one printed in New York in 1773, are ghosts). The Randolphs were an elite Virginia family. Our copy likely eventually belonged to Richard Kidder Randolph [1781-1849], although.

Moderate toning, light soiling and creasing, no loss to legibility, small tears to edges and hole to left margin not affecting text, two small circular stickers to top-edge. $3,000. * The fourteen-year-old Bell confessed to killing Richard Faulkner Taylor, thirteen, presumably for the small sum of money Taylor was carrying home. Any Bird Bell's name is sometimes given as James, probably a result of confusion with his younger brother, James Bell. The younger brother, apparently a witness to the crime, testified against him at trial, where he was convicted of murder. Bell was the youngest person executed in England in the nineteenth century. John Vandenburg Quick [1792-1858] was a successful London printer who specialized in broadsides, pamphlets, prints, paper toys and puzzles. This is a rare broadside.
