Excerpt from Report of a Select Committee of the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Kewaydin Upon the Boundaries of the Adjoining Province of Ontario<br/><br/>Although, in the course of this inquiry, their duty has imposed upon them the necessity of criticising the con clusions arrived at by their predecessors in these researches, they do so with all possible respect for the undoubted ability and high position, not only of the arbitrators, but also of those who have given evidence in this matter, or who have argued upon the opposing sides. They think that the case for Ontario was exceptionally well prepared. The books printed on that side were well compiled and suitably printed. The volume published by the House of Commons (dominion Report) is lacking in those requisites which make a book lucid in arrangement or convenient for reference.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles a boundary dispute between the provinces of Ontario and Kewaydin in the 19th century. The author meticulously examines documents and evidence presented before an arbitration panel created to resolve the dispute. The panel's decision ultimately rested on the interpretation of the 1774 Quebec Act, which extended the boundaries of the Province of Quebec. The author argues that the panel misinterpreted the Act, leading to a conventional boundary that departed from the Act's true intent. Through this case study, the book explores the legal and historical complexities of boundary disputes, highlighting the importance of precise language and the proper interpretation of legal documents.
