Gallacher, Communist Member of the House of Commons, and Earl Browder, General Secretary of the Communist Party of the United States, are of great importance for study by every Australian democrat.

PLEASE CONTACT US FOR A COMPLETE VERSION.** * Born in Tennessee, Sharkey was a lawyer, judge and politician who spent most of his life in Mississippi, which became a state in 1817. He served a single term in the Mississippi House of Representatives from 1828 to 1829 and was the U.S. Consul in Havana, Cuba from 1851 to 1854. A staunch Unionist, he was Mississippi's commissioner on Reconstruction and its provisional governor in 1865. Appointed to the U.S. Senate, he wasn't seated when the legislature failed to ratify the 13th Amendment. He then retired from politics and returned to his legal practice. Sharkey compiled the manuscript offered here when he was one of the three justices of the Mississippi Supreme Court (then called the High Court of Errors and Appeals), a post he held from 1832 to 1851. It is a collection of notes on cases heard before that court in July Term, 1835, December Term, 1836, and January Term, 1837, about 50 in all. Most of these concern property and estates. Most of these are quite detailed, filling several pages, and are, in effect, case reports. There are very few changes or corrections, which suggests these entries were compiled from an earlier set of notes.…
