Beschreibung
Beschreibung:
26pp. Original printed wrappers, stitched. Rear wrapper partially torn away and rumpled. Some soiling and wrinkling to outer margins of text, else rather clean. Vertical tear into text on p.21 with no loss of text. Very good. Untrimmed. In a green cloth chemise and half green morocco and cloth slipcase, spine gilt. The proposed Missouri Constitution from the convention of 1845. The first Missouri Constitution was passed in 1820, just prior to statehood in 1821. This is the second proposed constitution, drafted due to the growing population of the state. It was not, however, ratified by the voters, and thus was not adopted. A twenty-three-section "Declaration of Rights" includes exemption from military service on account of religious belief, strong defense of freedom of speech and worship, and a provision that "migration from this State cannot be prohibited. The question of slavery is not addressed. The constitution was not amended again until 1865, when Missouri passed a constitution with draconian loyalty oaths, designed to exclude all but the most fervent Unionists from public life. Scarce in the trade: Rare Book Hub records only three copies sold since 1953. MISSOURI IMPRINTS 481. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers WRCAM57258
