1841-42, People's Convention. Comm. on Judiciary (MS)
|
|
Report of the Committee on the Judiciary submitted to 1841-42 Constitutional Convention. Of note, portions of the manuscript are faded and difficult
to read. Of note, this was part of the unsanctioned "Dorr Rebellion," when middle-class residents sought to significantly reduce the property
requirements for voting. Led by Thomas Wilson Dorr, this attempt to change the constitution and a subsequent armed rebellion were unsuccessful, but they
ultimately led to a new constitution which liberalized voting rights. (Digitized from a microfilm copy of a title originally held by Department of State
in Providence, Rhode Island).
