Can A Negro Hold Office In Georgia? by Eugene Davis. This book reproduces the Georgia Supreme Court case of 1869 in which the State challenged the eligibility of Richard W. White, a clerk in Chatham County, who was described as a person of color, to hold the office of Clerk of the Superior Court. The volume reproduces the petition for a quo warranto, the court's information, the demurrers, the jury verdict on whether White had one-eighth African blood, and the resulting judgment that a person of color could hold office under Georgia law at that time. It includes the extended opinions of the Court's judges—Brown, McCay, and Warner—along with arguments by counsel such as Col. Stone, Col. Hartridge, and others. The work places the decision within the broader Reconstruction-era debate over citizenship, the 14th Amendment, and the rights of freedmen. Appendices reprint Governor Bullock’s messages and contemporary letters, showing the political stakes of Reconstruction and the reorganization of Georgia's government.
