of the "right of the people to keep and bear arms" To: H-NET/OIEAHC Electronic Association in Early American Studies <H-OIEAHC@H-NET.MSU.EDU>, H-NET List for History of the Early American Republic <H-SHEAR@H-NET.MSU.EDU>, h-south@H-NET.MSU.EDU X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2600.0000 Delivered-to: H-OIEAHC@h-net.msu.edu Original-recipient: rfc822;john.saillant@vmh.cc.wmich.edu I have added images of all the antebellum right to keep and bear arms decisions that I know of [Bliss v. Commonwealth (Ky. 1822), State v. Mitchell (Ind. 1831), Simpson v. State (Tenn. 1833), Aymette v. State (Tenn.1840), Reid v. State (Ala. 1840), State v. Buzzard (Ark. 1842), State v. Huntly (N.C. 1843), State v. Newsom (N.C. 1844), Nunn v. State (Ga. 1846), Cooper and Worsham v. City of Savannah (Ga. 1848), State v. Chandler (La. 1850), State v. Smith (La. 1856), State v. Jumel (La. 1858), Owen v. State (Ala. 1858), Cockrum v. State (Tex. 1859)] at http://www.claytoncramer.com/primary.html#RKBADecisions. These are all pretty big documents (typically several megabytes each), because they aren't HTML: they are PDF images of the actual cases. In a few cases, parts of the pages may not be readable because of photocopying problems when I went to chase them down. It can take a little while for the text to become completely visible; these images seem to arrive in two phases. (Some of these documents will need to be rotated with the "rotate" button that appears in your browser after the document has loaded.) Clayton E.
