Summary
DescriptionAlien and Sedition Acts (1798).png
English: Here is a higher resolution copy which comes from the same source. I have straightened the page, sharpened it, and darkened the text. Also, I transformed title, which appears warped in the original image (I assume it was not laid completely flat when the image was taken).
The previous version of this document (File:Alien_and_Sedition_Acts_(1798).jpg) is now deprecated; I have chosen so save this copy as a PNG, as JPEG compression artifacts are unsuitable for rendering text.
