Chesapeake States Supplemental Documents available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The supplemental documents are intended to provide a fuller documentation and understanding of the debate over the ratification of the Constitution in New York than was possible in the five printed volumes of the Documentary History of the Ratification of the Constitution (Wisconsin Historical Society Press/Center for the Study of the American Constitution). This supplement contains official documents, letters, and newspaper items. Arranged in its own chronological run, the last 100 pages of the supplement consist of documents dealing with New York's ratifying Convention, including: items from the printed and smooth manuscript journals and the printed debates, 42 newspaper reports, and loose papers. Twenty-seven roll call votes are listed. Manuscript notes and drafts of resolutions are taken from Convention's secretary McKesson and Convention delegates Hamilton, Hobart, Jay, Lansing, John and Robert Livingston, and Smith. Except for some photographic reproductions (facsimiles), the documents consist mostly of literal transcripts. The documents are arranged chronologically except for those on particular subjects which are grouped together. These groupings are: -- New York Appoints Delegates to the Constitutional Convention, 13 January-6 March 1787 -- Antifederalism of Thomas Greenleaf Satirized in the New York Morning Post, and New York Packet, 7-11 January 1788 -- The Challenge to Thomas Greenleaf's Credibility Respecting His Publication of Arthur Lee's Report on the State of Virginia Antifederalism, 10-29 March 1788 -- Performance of The Play The Convention in New York City, 4-8 April 1788 -- Jonathan Akin Charged With Being a Monarchist, Poughkeepsie Country Journal, 22 April-1 July 1788 -- Thomas Greenleaf Erroneously Reports the Appointment of a British Vice Counsel for New England, 29 April-6 May 1788 -- Election Certificates, 27-30 May 1788 -- Fourth of July Celebrations, 1788 -- The New York City Federal Procession, 23 July 1788 -- Thomas Greenleaf's "Publication Policies on the Resumption of Publication After the Destruction of His Press," 31 July-11 September 1788 -- The New York Convention, 17 June-28 July 1788 This Supplement contains 40 facsimiles totaling 182 individual pages.
