Condition: Very Good. Light blue paper. 19 x 10 cm. Neatly handwritten in brown ink. Undated. Signed by James Mars. Blank on back (verso). Mars was enslaved at birth. The enslaver of his family was the local Congregational minister in Canaan, Connecticut. Connecticut enacted a law in 1784 providing for gradual emamciapation of enslaved residents of Connecticut. The minister decided to go the Virginia which had no such law. The Mars family escaped but were located. Negotiations ensued. The resulting agreement in 1798 resulted in freedom for his parents and sister with James and his brother remaining enslaved in Connecticut until emanciapated by law at the age of 25. James later negotiated with his successor enslaver and bought his freedom in 1811 for $90. James later worked in a dry goods store and became a leader among freedmen in the Hartford area. He had eight children. Mars and his family moved to Pittsfiled, Mass. around 1845 where his wife died a few years later. James remained in Pittsfield for about 20 years. He then returned to Hartford and wrote a narrative of his life at least partly to support himself in his otherwise impoverished old age. It was first published in Hartford in 1866 and titled "Life of James Mars, a Slave Born and Sold in Connecticut." There were several printing or editions. We assume that this document relates to a real estate transaction that occurred when Mars was living in or near Hartford, Connecticut either before or after his decades in Pittsfield but have not tried to ascertain the land's exact location. We did notice that this fragmewnt does no include a notary's certification. . We did notice that this fragment does not include a notary?s certificate.

Pamphlet. Condition: Very Good. 24pp. Octavo [22 cm]; unsewn pamphlet. 'Dr. Richards' written in contemporary ink at the upper right corner on the cover. Minor smudging and bumping along the margins and edges, a couple of small pinholes at left margin, and some light staining and foxing throughout; still in very good condition. This is the first state of this work, with the word "are" printed as the first word in the last paragraph of page iv. We located eight institutional holdings at the time of cataloguing. Uncommon. According to Crawley "the pamphlet opens with an exchange of correspondence between Willard Richards and Zerubbabel Snow, an associate justice of Utah Territory, with Snow's opinion that Brigham Young proceeded properly in taking the census and organizing the territorial legislature prior to the arrival of the territorial appointees - all reprinted from the Deseret News of November 29, 1851. Next are the plea of George A. Smith in defense of Howard Egan at Egan's trial before Snow for the murder of James Monroe and Snow's charge to the jury. These are followed by the text of the act of organizing Utah Territory and the names of the territorial officers appointed by Millard Fillmore, September 28, 1850. The preface, signed by Franklin D. Richards and dated March 12, 1852, opens with the declaration: "The following compilation may be considered a complete refutation of the charges contained in the Report of the returned Judges for Utah, against His Excellency Governor Brigham Young, and the citizens of that Territory" - a reference to the tract 'Polygamy Revived in the West,' which Lowe had used in his lecture. And in the next-to-last paragraph: "The Organic Act is also introduced, that all who wish may know the foundation upon which the organization and government of the Territory of Utah rests.'"
