against the United States therein mentioned that meet
ings should be held in this District and committees an
pointed TO provide and make collections for the
purpose of enabling the inhabitants of Texas to engage in
with the United States.
(sgned) GIDEON TUCKER"
In answering the foregoing enquiry the Court will con-
fine itself TO the fact stated the section of the law
referred TO- The enquiry is, whether meetings held i'm
s district or state and committees appointed to provide
means and make collections for die purpose of cnabing
The inhabitants Of Texas to engage ciuH o9r 10Th me
ooreTeghy 81 Mc1cO, is violation of the section of
the law referred to- That section of the Act as fol-
lows:
Sect G. And be it further enacted, that if any per.
son shall within the territory jurisdiction of the U

means for any military expedition enter prize to be

mons OF any foreign Prince State of any colony
