Account of the Law-Suit Instituted by REV. G. A. M. Elder ...: Against REV. N. L. Rice ... for a Pretended Libel on the Character of REV. David Duparq

By Nathan Lewis Rice

This volume documents the account of a highly publicized 19th-century legal battle. "Account Of The Law-suit Instituted By Rev. G. A. M. Elder ... Against Rev. N. L. Rice ... For A Pretended Libel On The Character Of Rev. David Duparque, A Roman Priest" details the proceedings of a libel lawsuit brought against Reverend N. L. Rice. The suit stemmed from Rice's alleged defamation of Reverend David Duparque, a Roman Catholic priest.

Beyond the specifics of the case, the book delves into broader discussions relevant to the context of the dispute. It includes remarks on celibacy and nunneries, reflecting the anti-Catholic sentiment prevalent during the period. This account offers valuable insights into the religious and social tensions of 19th-century America and the contentious relationship between Protestant and Catholic communities.
