Between Yates and Salle[1] is a published opinion by George Wythe, for the case Yates v. Salle, Wythe 163 (1792), in Virginia's High Court of Chancery.[2][3] The report was almost certainly printed by Thomas Nicolson of Richmond, Virginia, who had published Wythe's Reports in 1795, and at least seven other supplements for Wythe, in 1796 and after.[4]
Evidence for Inclusion in Wythe's Library
Although the location of Wythe's copy of this pamphlet has not been determined, he certainly would have owned copies of his own published reports. Thomas Jefferson owned a copy of this pamphlet, bound into a volume with six of Wythe's other Chancery decisions which were published as supplements, some of which bear Wythe's handwritten corrections and notes.[5] Subsequently, the volume became part of the collection at the Library of Congress, titled on the spine: Wythe's Reports. Supplement. Virginia. 1796-99.[6] The pamphlet for Between Yates and Salle has a handwritten notation, "no. 6," on the first page.
Page one from Wythe's pamphlet, Between Yates and Salle (1796?). Copy at the Library of Congress.

Mysteriously missing from the catalogue, however, is an entry for Between Yates and Salle, specifically mentioned by Minor to have been issued as a pamphlet, presumably provided by Green (Minor, p. 163).
