An outline of Yate’s Minutes appeared in Hall’s _American Law
Journal_, iv, 563, 1813.
Yates was a member of the Federal Convention and though his memoranda
only is to July 5, at which time he left the Convention, it is
only second to Madison’s _Debates_ in importance. It is noticed in
Taylor’s _New Views of the Constitution_.
This first edition is by no means a common volume.
