- Lot Description
[MORMONISM]. Laws of the State of Illinois, Passed by the First Session of the Sixteenth General Assembly, begun and held at the City of Springfield, January 1, 1849. Springfield: Charles H. Lanphier, 1849.
8vo. (Light overall browning, dampstaining to a few leaves, a few spots or stains.) Original sheep-backed boards, black morocco lettering-piece (rebacked preserving original spine, some dampstaining or soiling); cloth folding case. FIRST EDITION, including six laws passed to address the "Hancock Disturbances." As tensions grew between the residents of Nauvoo and the residents of Hancock County, fighting broke out. Joseph and Hyrum Smith were imprisoned and later killed by a mob, Nauvoo was raided, and the Mormons agreed to leave Illinois. Among the pertinent laws: "An Act to Pay Certain persons the Balance Due the from the State," including a list of persons who were called into service by the Governor to suppress the disturbances (pp.33-34); "An Act to compensate Porter Sergant for powder furnished in the Hancock War" (p.36); "An Act authorizing the removal of the county seat of Hancock county" (p.56); "An Act for the relief [of] certain persons therein named," including Thomas H. Owen, who was paid $51.34 "for provisions furnished the troops...in the Mormon war," and Thomas Wells, who received $5 "for provisions furnished by him to the troops aforesaid" (pp.118-119); "An Act to provide for the sale of lands and town lots in township four north, range nine west, in Hancock County" (p.181); and a report in the appendix containing expenditures relating to the disturbances at Nauvoo.
