Hay, et. al. vs. Conner (1808) 2 H. & J. 347 Note that Blackboard.com is unreliable in passing user name (leading) and password (leading!)to my cold fusion web sites. If you have difficulty reaching this from Blackboard.com, simply go to http://msa.maryland.gov outside of Blackboard.com and use leading/leading!. From there use the search function for Hay and you will find this case in the series (Court of Appeals: Records and Briefs).
Place the case in the historical context of your reading of the texts and use the documentation to explain how it alters or enhances your understanding of the importance of the case and the sources you might use to write a paper about the case. Be sure to read all the supplied documents in the case. In addition, transcribe one page on line at http://msa.maryland.gov/megafile/ecpdata/webroot/msaref04/msa-sc-5339-62-86/html/index.html, after requesting a user name and password to transcribe. Be sure to include in your request the page you are choosing to transcribe (it must be a full page of manuscript text).
In preparing your analysis of the case, indicate what sources your think you might need in order to fully document and understand the history/historical importance of the case. What sources are available/should be available on http://aomol.msa.maryland.gov to assist you? (For some references in aomol.net a user name (aaco) and a password (aaco#) are necessary).
Submit a 1-2 page summary of your reading/findings by 6 p.m. Monday, September 27, uploading it to your web site (the passwords have not been changed). Use your last name and "open" at http://teachersmd.net, hyperlink to Leading Cases. To be on the safe side, also send a copy to ecpapenfuse@aol.com.
