inclusive, in the Districts of Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Revised and corrected by the Chief Justice. Containing and
Appendix with the Constitution of the Confederate States of America, and the Conscription, Impressment and Sequestration Acts of that government. By
Bradley T. Johnson. Published by Diossy & Co. (New York 1876). xx + 637 p. Contents include the preface, a table of cases included, and the text of cases,
including Shortridge & Co. v. Macon and the Case of Jefferson Davis. (The preface states: “In the winter of 1872-73 it became apparent that [Chase’s]
work was done. The decisions on the questions growing out of the war, made by him on this circuit and in the Supreme Court, had settled the
principles on which the new Constitution of the United States was to be administered under the new conditions of society, and his wise and statesmanlike views,
impressed by him on the Supreme Court, had prevailed in nearly all courts, and peace and order were thereby largely restored.”)
