Oblong 20" X 11 1/2". On parchment. In typescript, completed in manuscript. With elaborate typography. Metes and bounds described. Seal in upper left corner of recto, docketed on verso, also with seal. Very attractive. Old folds, Near Fine. During the Revolution, Mifflin had been quartermaster general of the Continental Army, and also served in the first Continental Congress. A signer of the Constitution, he was the first governor of post-Constitution Pennsylvania. Trimble was Pennsylvania's first Deputy Secretary. Each of them signs in ink. I am not entirely certain why the Commonwealth would issue this Land Patent, as the tract was evidently owned by Harvey at the time of sale. But the Patent reserved to Pennsylvania "the fifth part of all Gold and Silver Ore": this clause may have necessitated the precaution to place Williamson directly under obligation to the Commonwealth.

WILLIAM BINGHAM (1752-1804). Bingham was a Senator and Continental Congressman from Philadelphia, as well as one of the richest men in the United States at the time. THOMAS MIFFLIN (1744-1800). Mifflin was a politician, soldier, and Founding Father from Pennsylvania. DS. 1pg. December 18, 1794. An oversized document signed "Tho Mifflin" as Governor of Pennsylvania. It is a partially-printed land deed engrossed by another hand, made out to William Bingham. "? Know ye, That in consideration of the monies paid by Robert Gilmore into the Receiver-General's office of this Commonwealth at the granting of the Warrant herein after mentioned and of the sum of five pounds eleven shillings & six pence lawful money now paid by William Bingham Esq. into said office there is granted by the said Commonwealth unto the said William Bingham a certain tract of land called 'Cheshunt' situate in the late Purchase Dist. No. 4 Northumberland County Beginning at a beech thence by his other land west five hundred eighty three perches to a Beech North three hundred and twenty [?] To have and to hold the said tract or parcel of land, with the appurtenances, unto the said William Bingham, and his Heirs to use of him the said William Bingham his Heirs and Assigns forever, free and clear of al restrictions and reservations as to Mines, Royalties, Quit-rents or otherwise, excepting and reserving only the fifth part of all Gold and Silver Ore for the use of this commonwealth to be delivered at the pitts mouth clear of all charges. In Witness whereof Thomas Mifflin Governor of the said commonwealth hath hereto set his Hand and caused the State Seal to be hereunto affixed the eighteenth day of Decem, in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and ninety-four and of the commonwealth nineteen. Attest James Trimble Deputy Secy." Mifflin signed in the upper left, just below the large paper seal. The verso of the document includes a lengthy statement signed "Wm Bingham" and written in another hand. This statement is notable for mentioning a land sale to Robert Morris and John Nicholson at the time the two of them were falling heavily into debt through land speculation. "? Be it known That I the within named William Bingham in Consideration of Five shillings lawfull [sic] money of Pennsylvania to me paid by Robert Morris & John Nicholson Esquires before the Sealing and Delivery hereof the receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged, have granted bargained and sold and by these presents do grant bargain & Sell unto them, the said Robert Morris & John Nicholson their Heirs & assigns, the within mentioned Tract of Land and Premises with the appurtenances to have and to hold the same and every Part thereof, with the Privileges thereto belonging, unto them the said Robert Morris & John Nicholson their Heirs and Assigns?Wm Bingham".

He represented the interests of the Penn family, served as Pennsylvania Attorney General, and rose to the position of Chief Justice of Pennsylvania in 1774. With the post war adoption of a Pennsylvania constitution, Governor Thomas Mifflin in 1791 appointed Chew to the High Court of Errors and Appeals, a post he held until 1806.

Folio; full leather. Includes 2 of the 3 parts which recorded minutes and notes of the deliberations, votes and texts of the changes to the PA State Constitution at the Convention in Philadelphia, which began on Nov 24, 1789 and continued well into the year of 1790. This copy includes "The Minutes of the Convention [First Session]" and "The Minutes of the Grand Committee of the Whole Convention." Bound thus - with Minutes of the Grand Committee preceding the Minutes of the Convention [First Session]. 101; 146 pp. Though paged continuously the Minutes of the Second Session are not found in this example. Recased in full tan goat skin with red leather label, title tooled in gilt at spine. Borders chained in blind to board edges with gilt ruling to spine. Endpages refreshed and the full title page for Minutes of the Grand Committee supplied in a high quality and convincing facsimile. Text pages bright and supple with only occasional general toning to some pages of the Minutes [First Session], presumably from variability of paper stock. Leaf Oo in Minutes [1st Session], pages 145/146 has been backed with japanese kozo to stabilize fragility at edges. Important and uncommon record of the fraught and difficult negotiations involved in changing the unusually egalitarian 1776 PA Constitution into the more traditional republican form of constitutional government. In place of the weaker plural executive branch, the new Constitution empowered a single elected executive with broader powers; the egalitarian unicameral legislative body was replaced with the more traditional bi-cameral Senate and House style of Legislative government. Rebound and quite handsome thus. Complete with respect to the 2 parts recorded by Evans as 22764 and 22766. VG thus. . Oversize book may require additional charges for expedited or international shipping.

Rare collection of printed and manuscript documents, signed by the first 28 (of 29) GovernorsÂofÂPennsylvania, being a near continuous representation of the office from its establishment in 1790 with the first Governorship of Thomas Mifflin, up until the 1930s with the 29th Governorship of Gifford Pinchot. Quarto, each document is tipped in to a paper folder with calligraphic title (many with engraved portraits), and housed in a quarter blue gilt morocco presentation box with a gilt gift inscription to the 30th Governor of Pennsylvania, George Howard Earle III (1890-1974), from the "Wizard of Washington" and Democratic Party politico, Emil Hurja (1892-1953). Includes documents signed by: Thomas Mifflin (1st governor, 1790-99); Thomas McKean (2nd, 1799-1808); William Findley (4th, 1817-20); Joseph Hiester (5th, 1820-23); John A. Shulze (6th, 1823-29); George Wolf (7th, 1829-35); Joseph Ritner (8th, 1835-39); David R. Porter (9th, 1839-45); Francis R. Shunk (10th, 1845-48); William F. Johnston (11th, 1848-52); William Bigler (12th, 1852-55); James Pollock (13th, 1855-58); William F. Packer (14th, 1858-61); Andrew G. Curtin (15th, 1861-67); John W. Geary (16th, 1867-73); John F. Hartrauft (17th, 1873-79); Henry M. Hoyt (18th, 1879-83); Robert E. Pattison (19th, 1883-87 and 1891-95); James A. Beaver (20th, 1887-91); Daniel H. Hastings (21st, 1895-91); William A. Stone (22nd, 1899-1903); Samuel W. Pennypacker (23rd, 1903-07); Edwin S. Stuart (24th, 1907-11); John K. Tener (25th, 1911-15); Martin G. Brumbaugh (26th, 1915-19); William C. Sproul (27th, 1919-23); Gifford Pinchot (28th, 1923-27 and 1931-35); John S. Fisher (29th, 1927-31). This set was gifted to 30th Governor George Howard Earle III from Emil Hurja, likely upon the former's election in 1935. Raised a Republican, Earle joined the Democratic Party in the 1930s after his dissatisfaction with the Republican Party's handling of the Great Depression. A prominent supporter of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Earle campaigned for him during the 1932 presidential election, where he most likely met Hurja, who was an executive and chief pollster for the Democratic National Committee. For his service to the successful campaign FDR appointed Earle Minister Plenipotentiary to the Republic of Austria, where he early on sounded the alarm over the rise of Nazism, but resigned the office in 1934 to run for Governor ofÂPennsylvania. As the first elected Democratic Governor since the Civil War, Earle ledÂPennsylvania through the height of the Great Depression, and during his one term instituted a series of programs that has come to be known as the "Little New Deal." In Earle's first two years in office state legislators introduced a record 3,514 bills, many of which targeted economic recovery, labor laws, and unemployment. Among the many bills passed were ones that introduced Child labor laws, the institution of a 40-hour work week, the abolishment of private police forces used by the coal and iron industries, the institution of unemployment compensation, and the funding of numerous public works and infrastructure projects. Considered the first modern pollster, Hurja was executive director and chief pollster for the Democratic National Committee from 1932-37, and helped gauge public support for FDR and the New Deal. His often accurate polling and electoral predictions earned him the moniker, the "Wizard of Washington." In near fine condition. A unique collection representing nearly every Governor ofÂPennsylvania, from the office's creation in 1790, up until the Great Depression years of the mid-1930s.Â.
