"Brutus" was the pen name of one of the Anti-Federalist writers who rebutted Hamilton's, Madison's and Jay's essays in the New York newspapers. Although not proven, most historians believe the real author was Robert Yates, a New York judge and political ally of New York Governor George Clinton, who is also thought to be one of the Anti-Federalist writers (Cato). There is less certainty about "Cato's" identity.
"Brutus" wrote a total of 16 essays that were published in the New York Journal between October 18, 1787 and April 10, 1788. Much of "Brutus'" writing addressed legal matters and the proposed federal judiciary.
