The Life and Age of Woman | Stages of Woman's Life from Infancy to the Brink of the Grave
Item No. 1 [a bit of glare in photo] The Seven Stages of a Woman’s Life 1. Alden, Albert: THE LIFE AND AGE OF WOMAN | STAGES OF WOMAN'S LIFE FROM INFANCY TO THE BRINK OF THE GRAVE. [Barre, MA? c.1835-1840]. 18" x 21-1/2", visible printed area. Woodcut illustration, matted behind glass in attractive wood frame 27-1/2" x 30-1/4". Printed with black ink. Some wrinkling; loss to right blank upper corner. Else Very Good. A seven-figure image of seven stages of a woman's life: ages 1, 12, 18, 30, 50, 75, and 90. The figures stand upon pyramid steps; text printed beneath each illustration, all surrounded by a decorative border. A 30-year-old woman stands on the peak step,” at the zenith of her intellectual and physical powers." The 18-year-old, at "the most critical age in the life of a female," risks "bestowing [her affections] on man unworthily, or in vain" if she does not "first [give] her heart to God." The 50-year-old's "home is her castle" and her "time not spent in providing for her household is devoted to counseling her children, who at this time of her life are ready to go forth into society." The 90-year-old is a crone; "we see all that remains of her who at twelve and eighteen, tripped 'on th [sic] light fantastic toe.'" Alden's woodcut, "The Life and Age of Man," is well-known and based on the classical idea of the seven ages of man.

A History of Elector Discretion MICHAEL L. ROSIN* In its opinion in Chiafalo v. Washington, the Supreme Court disposes of the actual history of elector discretion as too inconsequential to merit its serious analysis. A history of elector discretion not only includes a history of the electors who exercised discretion when casting electoral votes, it also in- cludes a history of commentary on the role of electors as the Constitution was created and, more importantly, as Congress was attempting to amend it. The Court almost completely ignores this history. When Congress crafted the Twelfth Amendment in 1803 it recognized that “the right of choice [of pres- ident] […] devolve[s] upon” the House of Representatives from the Electoral College. Section 4 of the Twentieth Amendment twice repeats this text. As the House Committee reporting the Twentieth Amendment reported it to the full House in 1932 it acknowledged that electors are free to exercise discretion. Earlier versions of this Article served as the primary input to amicus briefs filed in the author’s name in Chiafalo. This Article reviews the relevant epi- sodes of congressional history as well as election history to demonstrate that Congress has never understood the Constitution to allow electors to be bound with legal consequences. * Michael L. Rosin is an independent scholar. M.A., University of Pittsburgh, 1976; M.Sc. (Econ.), London School of Economics, 1975; A.B., University of Chicago, 1973.

Pioneers in the Fight for the Inclusion of Chinese Students in American Legal Education and Legal Profession
02-Chen.docx (Do Not Delete) 11/22/201511:45 AM Pioneers in the Fight for the Inclusion of Chinese Students in American Legal Education and Legal Profession Li Chen † In 1878, the first Chinese student, Sit Ming Cook, sought entry into an American law school and was rejected because of his race. Chang Hong Yen, the second Chinese law student, was more fortunate. In 1884, Chang journeyed to New York City to embark on his legal education at Columbia Law School. A former Chinese Government Scholar, Chang had nine years of preparatory and collegiate education in the United States. In June 1886, after two years of full-time study, Chang became the first Chinese person to graduate from an American law school. Unfortunately, his race became a formidable barrier for him to gain admission to the New York bar. By dint of resourcefulness and determination, Chang fearlessly fought against racial discrimination for inclusion in legal profession. In May, 1888, two years after graduating from Columbia Law School, Chang successfully overcame all hurdles and became the first Chinese to be admitted to practice law in America. Two years later, Chang relocated to California in order to practice law among the Chinese community. When he sought admission to the California bar, the California Supreme Court denied his admission because of his race, finally admitting him posthumously 125 years later. Chang's aspiration was again thwarted by his race. Sit and Chang's courageous, yet largely unknown and untold struggles have paved the way for early Chinese Americans to achieve improved successes in the legal field since the early part of 20th century.
