Description

This is an excerpt from Francis Newton Thorpe's work "The Essential of American Constitutional Law" (1917).

The reader will discover that the Professor's conclusions on Citizenship under the Constitution of the United States and the Slaughterhouse Cases are the same as the author's.

There are four articles (plus a companion) the author has written on the Slaughterhouse Cases and Citizenship under the Constitution.

"Slaughterhouse Cases, Two Citizens" is the first. The second article is "Slaughterhouse Cases, Up Close." The third, "Two Citizens Under The Constitution." And, "Privileges and Immunities of a Citizen of the several States." The companion is entitled "Mistake in the Syllabus." It shows a mistake in the Syllabus to the Slaughterhouse Cases with a footnote to the Slaughterhouse Cases opinion itself.
