Slavery and the law, part of History Vault, contains the English cases, naturally placed in the first volume of the series, and those heard and determined in the highest courts of Virginia, oldest of the colonies, of West Virginia, and of Kentucky, whose jurisprudence for obvious historical reasons followed somewhat closely that of Virginia. Other states, Southern, Northern, Western, and the few Canadian and Jamaican cases, will occupy the subsequent volumes, the Carolinas receiving, probably, the first place in the second volume.
That the English cases are continued beyond 1783, to the same date of 1875 as the American cases, will be understood to be due in part to the close connection of some of them with the determinations in earlier cases like that of Somerset, and in part to their relation to the later slave trade to America.
