1843, Resolves of Massachusetts and Connecticut [Ohio doc.]
|
|
Doc. No. 34. Message from the Governor transmitting resolutions from the states of Connecticut and Massachusetts, December 27, 1843. [Ohio] It was
common for states to circulate certain resolutions, usually aimed at the federal government, asking other states to sign on so as to add weight to
the words. Connecticut wanted citizens to be allowed to file claims with the federal government for damages done by France because the government had
received money from France to forego claims during an 1800 treaty. Connecticut also did not like the present tariff arrangement and did not the
Congressional franking privilege. Massachusetts was opposed to the existence of the United States Military Academy and did not want Texas as a state. Ohio
signed on to the claims resolution. (For the location of the original of this document, please consult the relevant section in a Guide to the
