Levy notes that his second petition to the King regarding his right to the Islands of Ossabaw, Sapelo, and St. Catherine's, which he reportedly bought from Thomas and Mary Bosomworth and which were later sold by Bosomworth to the Crown, was denied.  Levy says that he was surprised since he had been advised by their Lordships, through Mr. Pownal, that they would help him secure some kind of compensation for the loss of these islands if he would request such in a second petition to the King.  According to Levy, Bosomworth's later sale of those same islands to the Crown was illegal.  Levy also proclaims his right to a jury trial in Georgia.  He ends by requesting that their Lordships make a report of his case, as they had offered to do months before.</dc:description><dc:description>Digital image and encoded transcription of an original manuscript, scanned, transcribed and encoded by the Digital Library of Georgia in 2001, as part of GALILEO, funded in part by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.</dc:description><dc:format>text/html</dc:format><dc:format>image/jpeg</dc:format><dc:identifier>krc054</dc:identifier><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:relation>Mode of access: World Wide Web.</dc:relation><dc:relation>System requirements: AT&amp;T DjVu browser plug-in needed to view images of documents.</dc:relation><dc:rights>http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NoC-US/1.0/</dc:rights><dc:source>Manuscript held by the Hargrett Rare Book and Manuscript Library, The University of Georgia Libraries, Keith Read, box 02, folder 90, document 01.</dc:source><dc:subject>Indian land transfers</dc:subject><dc:subject>Bosomworth, Thomas</dc:subject><dc:subject>Levy, Isaac--Claims</dc:subject><dc:title>Sketch of second memorial of Isaac Levy to the Lords of Trade and Plantation, 1768</dc:title><dc:type>Text</dc:type></oai_dc:dc>
