Constitutional Limits on Legal Tender and Property Rights
The text argues that forcing payment in currency of inferior value to settle contracts violates the property protections of the Constitution. It emphasizes that contracts for money are property and that compelling acceptance of depreciated money is an arbitrary deprivation. It notes public sentiment shifts during war and the eventual constitutional validation or rejection of such tender laws. The Times reports a bold escape attempt by Bowdoinham Bank robbers from the State Prison and ongoing surveillance following incarceration.
