between the State of Georgia, Plaintiff, and Samuel A. Worcester,
Defendant, on an indictment in that Court."

This writ of error was returnable on the second Monday of January, 1832,
and was attested by the Honorable HENRY BALDWIN, one of the Associate
Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States.

A citation was issued, directed to "the State of Georgia," dated October
27, 1831, and signed by the Honorable HENRY BALDWIN, by which the said
State was cited to show cause why the error in the judgment against
Samuel A. Worcester, in the writ of error mentioned, if there was any
error, should not be arrested, and why speedy justice should not be done
to the parties in that behalf.

The citation was served on his Excellency WILSON LUMPKIN, Governor of
the State of Georgia, on the 24th November, 1831, and on CHARLES J.
JENKINS, Esq. Attorney General of the said State, on the 22d November,
1831.
