Hardcover. Condition: Good. First edition. First edition. Full calf, spine reinforced with compatible leather piece, without labels. Association copy. From the library of US Senator and officer in the Confederate and US army, M. C. Butler, with his signature on front paste-down. Binding is sturdy and fully intact; text is very g…ood throughout; leather worn off at corners, otherwise wear to boards is light. This volume covers an important interim period, from the reestablishment of the So. Carolina court of appeals in 1860, through the war, to the establishment of a new post war justice system, created by the state's 1868 constitutional convention. That such a book would be of interest to Maj. General Matthew Calbraith Butler (1836-1909) should be no surprise. Butler was elected to the South Carolina legislature in 1860 and climbed the ranks in the Confederate army during the Civil War, losing a foot at the Battle of Brandy Station (1863). After the war, he represented South Carolina in the U.S. Senate (1877-1895), returning to military service in the Spanish-American War (1898), commissioned a Major General of U.S. Volunteers. Due to the size/weight of this book extra charges may apply for international shipping. Ships from Dinkytown in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Signed by Other.

Pages are age toned, foxed and soiled throughout. All pages are present and readable, including index. This copy bears the original bookplate of Judge John Trimble of Par…is, Kentucky (bio below). A nice copy of this SCARCE work and an early Kentucky imprint with fantastic legal provenance. Not Ex-Lib. I've done my best to describe the book, but if you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to send me an e-mail. Judge John Trimble Although Judge Robert Trimble lined up with the Anti-Relief Party, a new Court of Appeals was created by the Relief Party, and the conflict continued under the names of the Old Court and New Court parties. The New Court included such well-known names as George M. Bibb, Wm. T. Barry, John Rowan, John Trimble and others. This Judge John Trimble was born in Kentucky, December, 1783. When a youth of nineteen he served at the pioneer town of Vincennes, Indiana, as secretary to the territorial Governor. Upon his return to Kentucky he also studied law like his gifted relation, Robert Trimble, under George Nicholas. He practiced in the courts of Paris, Kentucky and rose to the Circuit Bench. Judge John Trimble was appointed to New Court of Appeals by Governor Desha. It seems that the excitement and distress all around him became so discouraging that he resigned his position not very long after. The Legislature, who created the New Court of Appeals had been unable under the constitution to remove the judges of the Old Court, so a law was passed repealing the act by which the Old Court had been organized. This enactment was put through in perhaps the most exciting session of the Kentucky legislature ever known. The Old Court absolutely refused to be abolished; and the greater part of the legal profession and state judiciary stuck to the Old Court. The New Court, however, held its sessions and was recognized by a substantial part of the lawyers and judges over the state. Meanwhile the poor and distressed masses of the people through ballots had given such overwhelming majorities for the relief in the legislature, began to emigrate westward in such numbers that by the next election the Old Court party came to power again. Records of the time revealed how steady was the stream of people to other states and territories. In the year 1820, Thomas H. Benton, the United States Senator from Missouri appeared in public life with the profound sympathy for the struggling masses. Thousands of the Revolutionary veterans had drifted westward in utter destitution; for it is said that if all thosse who were burdened with debt in one single New England State had been imprisioned for it, two-thirds of the population, including the old soldiers would have been behind the bars. The famous Col. Barton who captured Colonel Prescot, languished in prison for a debt of the sort. And Senator Thomas H. Benton gives us in the opening of his great book, "Thirty Years in the U.S. Senate, " a graphic picture of conditions.
