Before an order could be carried into the community, someone had to exercise the legal authority behind it. From the magistrates of early Massachusetts Bay to the justices of the peace of the provincial era, local lay officials played an important role in administering justice. They heard complaints, made legal determinations, and exercised powers assigned to them by law. In Volume 7: Justice of the Peace, discover how this local judicial office developed, how it differed from the modern judge, and how its work could intersect with that of the constable. A decision could begin inside a room. Carrying it into effect often required someone to step outside it.
