  • William Lincoln
    424 American Antiquarian Society. [Oct. WILLIAM LINCOLN. BY CHARLES A. CHASE. IT has been the good fortune of this Society, through the four-score years of its existence, that at every period in its history there has been at least one man who stood forward to render such service as should best promote its interests. Our founder gave his valuable collection of books and newspapers as a nucleus for the library, and bestowed upon us the first library-building as a depository for its treasures and such accretions as it should receive in follow- ing years ; finally crowning his frequent benefactions with rich bequests for its maintenance and perpetuation. In later years, the work has been well kept up ; now by those who were diligent and unwearying in gleaning from every field the choicest grains, to be garnered in the magazine ; now by those whose intelligent munificence has builded a newer and a larger storehouse, or has furnished the means to employ skilful reapers, or to increase the gathered har- vest. Prominent among those to whom the Society must ever be indebted, stands the name of William Lincoln, who gave it his unintermitted attention during his all-too- brief a lifetime. Mr. Lincoln was the brother, and by twenty years the junior, of the Hon. Levi Lincoln, long a Councillor of the Society. Born at Worcester, on September 26, 1802, he • was the seventh and youngest child of that Levi Lincoln who, coming to Worcester in December, 1775, was at once appointed Clerk of the courts which had then just been re-opened, was for four years Judge of Probate, was 1891.] William Lincoln.

UNDER HIS OWN FLAG: JOHN BAKER’S GRAVESTONE MEMORIAL IN RETROSPECT by George L. Findlen John Baker is an enigmatic figure, half hero and half scoundrel His actions in raising the American flag on the north shore of the St. John River in July 1827, in defiance of British authorities, contributed to the tensions that resulted in the “Bloodless” Aroostook War in 1839, and this in turn provided the impetus for settling the U.S.-Canadian boundary along the St. John River according to the Webster-Ashbur- ton Treaty oj 1842. Jn 1868 the State of Maine erected a monument of sorts to the memory of John Baker in a cemetery near Fort Fair- field. Pondering why the monument was raised, and who the man behind the monument really was, sets the stage for a better under­ standing of collective memory in a northern Maine context.

  • The Imperial Treaty Power
    ARTICLE THE IMPERIAL TREATY POWER BRIAN RICHARDSON† The modern debate over the scope of the federal government’s treaty-making power is largely framed by motivated histories written at the turn of the last century. These histories, by and large, gave a legal imprimatur to the acquisition of the insular possessions and the exercise of colonial government over them. A principal contribution of these constitutional histories was to make it an obvious proposition that the American treaty-making power contained the law-of-nations power to acquire territory and to take an imperial sovereign’s original title to it: “What Spain could do we can do.” This Article contends that these imperial and canonical histories of the treaty- making power erased a vibrant and contrary view of American foreign-affairs federalism. This now-interred theory of American foreign-affairs federalism, which produced victories in several important public law disputes in prior eras, argued that the Tenth Amendment’s reservation of sovereign power to the popular sovereign proscribed both the state and federal governments from exercising an “eminent dominion” over territory. That is to say, this rival view forbade both the state and federal governments from acquiring territory, ceding territory, and holding original title to territory so acquired. Crucially, this idea rejected altogether the familiar lens of “dual-sovereignty” in limiting the foreign-affairs powers of American governments. This Article traces the arc of the erased idea about the American governments’ foreign-affairs powers through bureaucratic archives, state and federal court decisions, and various sources of elite legal opinion. In accounting for the bygone victories of the now-dormant idea, as well as the ultimate defeat of that idea at the hands of imperial bureaucrats, the Article sheds new light on one of the central preoccupations of the † Research Fellow, Columbia Law School; J.D., Yale Law School; Ph.D., University of Cambridge.
