Report for California war claims, Rep. No. 16, 31st Congress, 1st Session, House of Representatives, 29 January 1850. The 26-page document concerns claims by Britons Eustace Barron, William Forbest and Alexander Forbes seeking compensation for the seizure of their schooner "William" and cargo at Monterey by American forces during the Mexican-American War. With loose pages, as disbound, foxing, stains and soiling, the condition is fair.
