Between Fowler and Saunders[1] is a published opinion by George Wythe, for the case Fowler v. Saunders, Wythe 322 (1798), in Virginia's High Court of Chancery.[2] The pamphlet also contains the decision for Goodall v. Bullock, Wythe 328 (1798).[3] The reports were published in 1798 or later—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 Fowler and Saunders has a handwritten notation, "no. 3," on the first page, while Between Goodall and Bullock has "no. 4" written where it begins, on page 12.[7]
