. Hannifan & Co.'s new commercial railroad and county map of New Yort State and gazetteer .. . Colonists to raise and appropriate money by their own actsalone. Writs of Assistance or Warrants, to search when and where theypleased for smuggled goods, were issued by the English government in1761, in order to a more strict enforcement of the Acts of Trade. Theywere so unpopular as to be seldom used. Massachusetts first resisted theenforcement of these acts, in a stirring speech delivered by James of Assistance were warrants issued by the Supreme Court, author-izing deputy collectors to search any place or building for the discoveryof smuggled goods. It was conceded that the government had the rightto issue a writ for the searching of a special building named in the writ,but it was denied that writs could be lawfully issued to enable an officerof the law to search wherever he pleased. Writs were finally issued, butseldom, if ever, used. This was one of the first kicks of the Coloniesagainst British tyranny. 122 OF REPRESENTATIVE BUSINESS HOUSES. LITTLE WM. P.
