Imprint Record

Petition seeking Police Force in Norfolk.

• Imprint Number: 1805.068
• Title: To the Speaker and Members of the House of Delegates ... inhabitants of the borough of Norfolk ...
• Sequence Number: 68
• Year: 1805
• Place Issued: Norfolk
• Issuing Press: Uncertain
• Author: Inhabitants of the Borough of Norfolk.
• Notes: Petitioners asked for an act authorizing creation of a "systematic police force" in Norfolk; the Assembly declined to act on the request.
  Sheet lacks colophon; undoubtedly a Norfolk-issued imprint, but the multiplicity of presses then operating there precludes an attribution to any specific one without further evidence.
