Jefferson, Thomas

Autograph Letter, Signed (Th Jefferson), to James L. Edwards of Boston,5 September 1811, refusing the demands of a newspaper publisher

Monticello, sep. 5 11 [1811] Jefferson Refuses a Demand "for certain services performed" An interesting Jefferson letter, in which he rebuffs a request for payment of a thousand dollars by the editor of the SAVANNAH REPUBLICAN newspaper. He stridently objects to the payment demand, and seeks to defend his honor and reputation in setting his correspondent straight. Jefferson subscribed to a number of newspapers while he was President, including the SAVANNAH REPUBLICAN. He cancelled almost all of these subscriptions, including that for the REPUBLICAN, when he left office at the beginning of 1809, taking care to pay all his outstanding bills. It appears from this letter that Norman McLean, one-time editor of the REPUBLICAN, promised his successor, James Edwards, that he would pay Edwards money he owed him once he collected $1000 owed McLean by Jefferson. Edwards wrote Jefferson on August 20, 1811, asking for the money that Jefferson owed McLean. In the present letter, Jefferson stridently objects to the request, and insists that his account with McLean is settled. A review of Jefferson's memorandum and account books corroborates Jefferson's claim. McLean was seemingly trying to forestall Edwards's requests for payments by claiming that Jefferson still owed him money, and that he would pay Edwards when he was paid by Jefferson. Jefferson writes: "Sir, "Your letter of August 20th has truly surprised me. In that it is said that, for certain services performed by Mr. James Lyon and Mr. Samuel Morse, formerly editors of the Savannah Republican, I promised them the sum of 1000 D. This, Sir, is totally unfounded. I never promised to any printer on earth the sum of 1000 D., nor any other sum, for certain services performed, or for any services which that expression would imply. I have had no accounts with printers but for their newspapers, for which I have paid always the ordinary price and no more. I have occasionally joined in moderate contributions to printers, as I have done to other descriptions of persons, distressed or persecuted, not by promise, but the actual payment of what I contributed. When Mr. Morse went to Savannah, he called on me and told me he meant to publish a paper there, for which I subscribed, and paid him the year in advance. I continued to take it from his successors, Everett & McLean, and Everett & Evans, and paid for it at different epochs up to December 31, 1808, when I withdrew my subscription. You say McLean informed you 'he had some expectation of getting the money, as he had received a letter from me on the subject.' If such a letter exists under my name, it is a forgery. I never wrote but a single letter to him; that was of the 28th of January, 1810, and was on the subject of the last payment made for his newspaper, and on no other subject; and I have two receipts of his, (the last dated March 9, 1809) of payments for his paper, both stating to be in full of all demands, and a letter of the 17th of April, 1810, in reply to mine, manifestly showing he had no demand against me of any other nature. The promise is said to have been made to Morse & Lyon. Were Mr. Morse living, I should appeal to him with confidence, as I believe him to have been a very honest man. Mr. Lyon I suppose to be living, and will, I am sure, acquit me of any such transaction as that alleged. The truth, then, being that I never made the promise suggested, nor any one of a like nature to any printer or other person whatever, every principle of justice and of self-respect requires that I should not listen to any such demand." Jefferson sent James Lyon a copy of the letter the same day: "You will perceive at once its swindling object. My confidence in your character leaves me without a doubt of your honest aid in repelling this base and bold attempt to fix on me practices to which no honors or powers in this world would ever have induced me to stoop. I have solicited none, intrigued for none." Jefferson died severely in debt, and he was plagued by money problems throughout his life. He was not doubt sensitive to the problem of his outstanding accounts and, as this letter shows, overly sensitive to demands for money which he did not owe. An evocative letter 4to.

Frémont, John C

Manuscript Document Signed ("J. C. Frémont"), as Governor & Commander inChief of California, a blank Appointment to the Legislative Council

Ciudad de los Angeles, january 22, 1847 Rare and of historic importance, this document from Fremont's short-lived Governorship of California, during which time he attempted to establish civil rule in the new territory. The document reads: "To all to whom these presents shall come, Greetings: Know ye that I, J.C. Frémont Governor of the Territory of California in virtue of the authority in me vested and for the purpose of an immediate organisation of the territory so as to render it conformable to civil law do hereby appoint a member of the Legislative Council to hold said office until by election his successor shall be appointed. Given under my hand and seal this 22nd day of January A.D. One thousand eight hundred and forty seven at the Ciudad de Los Angeles [Signed:] J.C. Frémont Governor & Commander in Chief of California Attest: Wm H. Naples Secy of State" California had become an American Territory only 6 days prior, when, in a famous controversy, Frémont was appointed Civil Governor by Commodore Stockton. When orders were received shortly thereafter from Washington appointing General S.W. Kearny to the position, a serious conflict ensued between Stockton and Kearny. Frémont's refusal to obey orders from Kearny led to his court martial, and, after a trial which lasted more than a year, he was eventually convicted of of "mutiny," "disobedience to the lawful command of a superior officer," and "conduct to the prejudice of good order and military discipline;" he was finally sentenced to dismissal from the service. President Polk approved of the conviction for disobedience and mutiny, but remitted the penalty, and Fremont resigned. Later followed Frémont's famous expeditions to the Rockies, his campaign for the Senate, and finally his campaign for the Presidency as a Republican in 1856 -- the first man, in fact, to run for the Presidency as a Republican. The Republicans heralded their first candidate, with the chant, "Free Soil, Free Labor, Free Speech, Free Men, Frémont." In a losing effort Frémont nonetheless captured 33% of the popular vote 4to.

Whitney, Harry Payne, Flora, William C

Collection of 32 Autograph Letters signed & one Brady photo, including a4 pp. Autograph Letter, signed from W.C. Whitney to his son Harry aboutattending Harvard instead of Yale, addressed to him at Groton c/o Rev.Endicott Peabody, dated Sept., 21, 1888 ("you must not be influenced byyour mother about such things. If I had graduated at Trinity she is sosentimental she wd think it was the place for you."); a 10pp. letter fromFlora Payne Whitney to Harry, from Jacksonville, March, 26, (1886) about"alligators"; a 4 pp. letter from Flora To Harry at Groton Sept. 20,(1885), - probably her firs...

Various places, [1869-1890] The letters are mostly from Harry's mother, Flora Payne Whitney, with afew from his father William C. Whitney, including a rather poignant one in which he expresses his sorrow and distress that Harry had made up his mind to go to Yale, rather than Harvard as WCW had hoped. "Yale is narrow...I am awfully disappointed-more than I can say." Flora's letters generally strike a more cheerful note-she relates news of the family, and her travels and social doings-she appears to have had a very busy time in Washington entertaining, with balls, and parties, and receptions of a thousand people. She shows the usual motherly concern for Harry's welfare ("I do love your letters only they terrify me when they paint so vividly the dangers of tobogganing"), and her letters include references to clothes ("you will have to wait for your long pants, vest, and high collar"), family Christmas presents, the neighbors ("I have not looked out of my window in time to see the Vanderbilts off to school with their books") and her hopes for her son ("I want you to be very ambitious and work hard.") There are letters from Flora to WCW, and a couple of affectionate ones from him to her, all written when one was in New York and the other in Washington, as well as a letter from Flora to her mother, and a few others. It is clear that Harry is the apple of his parents' eye- his father alludes to Harry's 'strength of character", and apart from Flora's social news, the family appears as a happy, ordinary one of no special consequence. It is only when one recalls the reality of the situation that one realizes how remarkable these letters really are. UNIQUE (WHITNEY FAMILY) 8vo. . Generally in very good condition, several with their original envelopes

Steinbeck, John

Five Autograph Letters Signed ("John") and 1 Typed Letter (typedsignature "John") to Burgess Meredith, during World War II, regardingmilitary service

Palisades and New York City, april 2, 1942 - feb. 1943 "What a thrill to get a letter from a soldier. I got one once from a veteran of the battle of Gettysburg but that's the last soldier letter I have had until yours came ... " Steinbeck continues with a mention of the play version of The Moon Is Down, which had recently opened: "The play opened in Baltimore and it was pretty bad. Thirty minutes for mechanical difficulties and on top of that the lines were too long and too many and we got pretty bad notices. So I went to work and cut it and it opens in New York Tuesday and I don't know what it will do nor do I care very much. I'm thoroughly sick of it. I just don't llke the theatre. But at least the tempo will be all right this time. It won't limp itself to death ... " "My divorce went off with a minimum of name calling but I paid for it with everything I had but that is allright too because I can make some more maybe and she can't. So thats all right. We'll kind of pull in our horns for a while ... I might possibly get a transfer to the west coast in the fall but I don't know yet. I think the center is going to be here and I would hate to be away from the center. I probably will be drafted myself and there is no reason that I can think of why not. I'm healthy and have no dependents I can't take care of. I suppose I wouldn't be much better at it than you are. I was very bad when I was in the artillery in the ROTC in school. I think the thing the gunnery sergeant feared most was that I would pull the recoil action of a 75 down in such a way that nobody would ever get it together again. But I played a nice hand of polo so they let me stay in. But you can't kill nobody with a polo ball. "I've taken the house for two months and if I am kept in this job I will keep it through the summer. But I imagine some brass hat will decide I will do better work in Washington, which is a god damned lie. I am a panel in the office which is nice because I can more or less make my own way since no one knows what a panel is. I guess I'm nearly the only panel we've got on our side and maybe what I make of it won't help us to win the war as quickly as we might if I weren't a panel or if there were other panels to kind of point the way. But I'm stumbling around and anyone who tries to find out what a panel is by studying me is going to come to the conclusion that the whole thing is kind of crazy. Except of course if you don't want to. I broke one boy's wrist with a near side back stroke ... " It was in this period that Steinbeck became involved in his surreal imbroglio with his local draft board, which refused General Henry Arnold's request for a thirty-day deferment for Steinbeck, who had been writing for the OWI and who was awaiting a commission from the Air Force. The draft board refused, considering that Steinbeck's writing was such trash that he could not possibly be of any use to the nation as a writer. In the meantime, Steinbeck was in limbo, neither drafted nor commissioned. In his letter sometime in the Fall of 1942 he writes: "General Younts request came in but apparently nothing was done about it ... They wired my draft board and delayed classification. I'm reduced now to sitting about a little like a draft dodger ... If I had known there was going to be this much delay I could have written a novel but from the first I've been on a 12 hour notice. I guess this is the longest I've gone without any writing since I was sixteen. I'm getting very itchy ... Max Wagner is drafted and goes in Tuesday. I'm getting lonesome. Some fine morning I'm going to throw out the beautiful speeches about how I can do better work than carrying a gun and go down town and enlist. As a matter of fact I'm not bad with a gun and for my age I think I'd make a pretty good soldier ... ." He continues shortly thereafter: "Nothing is settled but a lot of wheels are in motion. Gen. Arnold's office wired the draft board and I haven't heard yet how they ruled. As to the other thing Laurence and all the others in that outfit were marvellous. I think they will really run it down. It isn't a charge it is just a question and apparently it scared everyone so much that they would have nothing to do with it. My answer to the question 'do you drink?' was 'not nearly as much as General Grant.' Anyway we thrashed things out and maybe something can come of it ... I really don't care whether I'm drafted or not. Ed Ricketts is at Fed One and Bill Saroyan and Max Wagner. I would like being with them ... " Then the news comes and he writes, in disgust and amazement: "I'm keeping you posted because this whole career is becoming more fantastic every moment. If I live I shall write it some day. Yesterday I had a letter from Headquarters. Gen. Arnold has ordered the historical section [of the Air Force] set up and has ordered me processed as quickly as possible. In the same mail a letter about my draft status. The board has denied headquarters MF request for my deferment on the grounds that I write trash and they cannot see how it can possibly benefit the army. Consequently they are classifying me 'P' for about two weeks and then I.A. Isn't that wonderful? My draft board has become a literary critic. So it looks as though it would be a photo finish and don't take any bets. The amusing thing is that last night I refused a Lieutenant Command in the navy to be accomplished immediately. This processing will probably be delayed as everything else is. I have a means of knowing before the board calls me and if everything has failed I'll go down and enlist just to rob these malicious men of their little triumphs. I have become so much amused by the spectacle that it doesn't seem to be happening to me at all. One of the board members ran against my father for Co Treasurer and lost and has never forgiven us. And one of them had to put in toilets for his farm workers because of the Grapes of Wrath. My sins are coming home to roost. That's the latest in my war with the U.S." As the affair drags on, he writes, in February of 1943: "I'm pretty fatalistic now about all things military ... " and " ... My army career seems to be blasted. I guess I've really been blackballed. And every time something else is about ready to break the boss of it goes on leave, is transferred or is sent overseas. So I still don't know what I'm going to do. Finished the Lifeboat story and am taking a little rest and loving it. The whole army business is fantastic beyond belief ... It is incredible. I know pretty much the whole thing now and it does not make me happy about the future. In fact it is shivery with malice and evil planning ... " 4to. In all, 8pp., on plain and ruled paper. Typed letter is slightly darkened but clean, others very good

Avinoff, Andrey

Russian Ecclesiastical and Decorative Art Objects in the Collection ofGeorge R. Hann: Watercolor illustrations by A[ndrey] Avinoff

n.p, 1944 Mr. Hann's own record of his distinguished collection. The two large albums have typewritten title pages, and consist of original watercolors, inset behind transparent protective coverings on the rectos, with typewritten descriptions of a high order of scholarship on the facing versos, each volume illustrating 42 items: crosses, medallions, mitres, lamps, censers and other liturgical items, as well as silver, Imperial china table services, a silver spade used by Alexander II in laying the foundation of the Odessa City Park, and other relics of a non- ecclesiastical sort. Andrey Arvinoff (1884-1949), a Russian artist who emigrated to America after the Bolshevik revolution, specialized in landscapes and portraits; he also had a successful career in commercial art. He was noted for his imaginative and skillful detail, art critics praising his “purity of line that can come from only the most delicate perception” and observing “like the other Russians who have come here, he loves to use details in wholesome quantities”. In the commercial art field, his nephew Alex Shoumatoff notes in the family chronicle Russian Blood, “his renditions of everyday household articles attracted attention as works of art.” In 1922 he was recruited by the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh to be a curator of entomology and in 1926 became the museum's director. In addition, he taught courses on Oriental and Russian art at the University of Pittsburgh. He was the ideal artist to depict George Hann's Russian objects, and his watercolors, done over pencil, are careful but not fussy; where, as is often the case, the objects are set with precious stones, his drawings shine with a radiant sparkle. A SPLENDID, UNIQUE RECORD OF ART TREASURES WHICH IS ITSELF A WORK OF ART. Accompanying these volumes is the catalogue of an exhibition of Russian Icons and other works of art from Mr. Hann's collection held at Carnegie Institute in 1944. It is finely bound in dark brown calf, gilt device on upper cover; apart from a little wear to extremities, it is in fine condition, and displays some of the items illustrated in the two albums 2 vols., Folio (13 x 11 1/2 in.). A total of 100 watercolors, each about 5 inches high by 3 inches wide; 84 of them mounted in two volumes, the remainder loose. Two full dark blue calf albums, gilt on upper covers and spines, patterned fabric doublures, linen hinges (to allow the thick volumes to open flat); fine condition.

Coleridge, Samuel Taylor

Autograph Letter, unsigned, to his schoolfriend, G. L. Tuckett, during hisbrief service in the army

Henley on Thames, “thursday night — feb 6thâ” [1794] An important early letter from Coleridge, written in the desperation and despair he found himself in after secretly enlisting in the army in late 1793. Wracked by guilt over the college debts he had amassed, depressed over his unrequited love for Mary Evans, Coleridge, without telling his family and swearing his friends to secrecy, enlisted in the 15th or King's Light Dragoons under the pseudonym of Silas Tompkin Comberbache. Eventually word leaked out to his family, and his older brother Captain George Coleridge intervened and arranged his discharge. (As this letter demonstrates, it was Tuckett who informed the family). After two months of basic training at Reading, during which, according to Richard Holmes in COLERIDGE, EARLY VISION, p. 54, he "he did guard duty at the Reading Fair and wrote love-letters on behalf of his illiterate comrades, he was ordered to Henley on Thames as temporarily unfit to ride." Coleridge's orders were to nurse a fellow soldier who was suffering from smallpox, sharing a small, cramped, single room with him in the Pest House ("It is four strides in length, and three in breadth"). Coleridge had developed saddle sores and boils from his unfortunate riding experiences and complains of those "those dreadfully troublesome eruptions, which so grimly constellated my Posteriors", as well as " ... the almost total want of Sleep, the putrid smell and the fatiguing Struggles with my Comrade during his delirium ... " (Holmes suggests that the claustrophobic ordeal of Henley may have contributed something to the hallucinations of THE ANCIENT MARINER, written four years later. But Coleridge then moves abruptly to the subject weighing on him. Although he acknowledges Tuckett's good intentions, he exclaims: "In an hour of extreme anguish under he most solemn Imposition of secrecy I entrusted my place of residence to the young men of Christ's Hospital - the intelligence you extorted from their Imbecility, should have remained sacred with you ... to the eye of your friendship , the divulging might have appeared necessary - but what shade of necessity is there to excuse you in shewing my letters - to stab the very heart of confidence! ... ... I doubtless have offended you - I would to God, that I too possessed the tender irritableness of unhandled sensibility - mine is a sensibility gangrened with inward corruption. Your gossip with the commanding officer seems so totally useless and unmotived that I almost find a difficulty in believing it ... " Coleridge is especially anguished, too, by the presence of an unopened letter brought to him from his older brother George (" ... am I not already sufficiently miserable?"): " ... my brother George proposes the cheering consolations of Conscience - but I am talking I know not what / yet there is a pleasure doubtless an exquisite pleasure mingled up in the most painful of our virtuous Emotions. He completes this remarkable letter with an expostulation of doom and guilt over his treatment of his mother: "Alas! my poor Mother! What an intolerable weight of guilt is suspended over my head ... ... and if I endure to live - the look ever downward - insult - pity - and hell. - God or Chaos preserve me! What but infinite Wisdom or infinite Confusion can do it!" Folio. 3 pp. on two conjugate leaves; addressed by Coleridge on verso of second leaf. Minor spotting, postal marks, trace of seal tear slightly affecting text. Published in COLLECTED LETTERS, ed. Griggs, I, 61-63

Hemingway, Ernest

Typed Letter Signed ("Ernie") to George Brown, his boxing coach andtrainer, regarding a visit from several Brookyn Dodgers, and his fightwith pitcher Hugh Casey

Finca Vigia, San Francisco de Paula, Cuba, march 3, 1942 Superb letter from Hemingway in fine fettle, writing to his boxing coach about a visit from the Brooklyn Dodgers, which ended in a fight in Hemingway's living room: "Early this morning I though of sending you a wire to see if you could come down and get me in shape in about ten days to fight a guy named Hughey Casey who pitches for the Dodgers. We went five one-minute ones last night and I was under the impression that I needed a lot of work in order to come up against Casey again [his pencilled note: "Maybe he still thinks he can beat me but I really know he can't if I get out and run and lay off. Have drunk very little all month except twice and have been feeling good"], but when I saw him today it looks as though there won't have to be any again. So it is all right. Marty [Martha Gellhorn] is still very sore about it on account of it taking place in the living room which it seems took a lot of trouble to construct and maintain and will perhaps never be quite so good again ... [pencilled note: "My left middle tow is broke but otherwise nothing but lots of loose skin on all the old marbles in my mouth.

We have shot pigeons against them three times and have now won $115 odd from them in the three shoots, and I would hate to think that any bitterness had sprung up from that ... In his pencilled post scriptum, Hemingway adds: "Don't say anything about the Casey business. REALLY. It was one of those good ones not the publicity kind.

Festus, Sextus Pompeius

[De verborum significatione] "Augustus locus sanctus ab avium gestu . .."

Bresciae: Boninus de boninis, 18 June, 1483 Sextus Pompeius Festus was a grammarian of the 2nd century A.D., who wrote this abridgement ('epitome') of the now lost encyclopedic dictionary of his contemporary Marcus Verrius Flaccus -- which survives only in fragments and in occasional citations by other authors. Our primary remaining source of this important Latin dictionary is Festus' abridgement, of which there is only one surviving manuscript (mutilated, and consisting of only the letters M-V), and an 8th-century abridgment of Festus by Paul the Deacon. The printed editions from the 15th century, therefore, are of the utmost importance in the history of the transmission of the text. Vancil lists 10: (201-210), beginning with the first edition of Milan, 1471. This edition by Boninus de Bonini is the last edition printed in the 15th century, and apparently the last edition before the rediscovery of the mutilated manuscript was printed in 1559. Goff locates two copies (Hartford Theological Seminary and Newberry Library). RLIN & OCLC both locate one copy (Emory University), catalogued with the inaccurate remark that "this is the second and only remaining portion of the abridgement by Festus of the lost treatise, De verborum significatione of M. Verrius Flaccus, edited and with notes by Fulvio Orsini" - a remark which applies to the 1559 printing, edited by Orsini, from the mutilated manuscript now in Naples. The incunable editions represent the entire alphabet. In this edition, the text of the full alphabet runs through verso H2, ending with "Festi Popmpeii diligenter emendati liber finit". The final leaves (48-51) then recommence with addenda for the letters I through M, with the colophon on the verso of leaf 51. Goff notes the this Boninus de Bonini edition is sometimes found [bound?] with his printing of Nonius Marcellus of the same year, but the date of the latter book is 17 July, 1483 -- a month later than this printing. The two were issued separately. As for the importance of the Festus text, there is currently a "Festus" project to collate and publish the text on a website (http://www.ucl.ac.uk/history/festus) where the editors remark: "For modern readers, there is a critical text, published in the early part of the twentieth century; but no translation or commentary is available and the text itself needs modern re-assessment. Many individual entries from the dictionary have been much debated and play a major role in our understanding of the republican period; but there has been no collection of this bibliography and little attempt to look at the dictionary itself or at the information it provides as a coherent whole." And modern editors have also remarked: "The text, even in its present mutilated state, is an important source for scholars of Roman history. It is a treasury of historical, grammatical, legal and antiquarian learning, providing sometimes unique evidence for the culture, language, political, social and religious institutions, deities, laws, lost monuments, and topographical traditions of ancient Italy." Folio. Large hand-drawn initial capital letter. 38 lines, 2 columns, a6b8c- d6e8f-h6 [-h6]; 51 leaves,. numbered [1]- 51 (lacking final blank). Modern boards. Washed copy and remarkably clean, except that the final gathering shows faint waterstaining at outer margin and a small unobtrusive stain in the text; overall, a beautiful copy.

Foote, John Taintor

A COLLECTION OF MANUSCRIPTS OF EARLY SPORTING STORIES BY THE CELEBRATEDWRITER JOHN TAINTOR FOOTE, INCLUDING 24 COMPLETE TITLES, THE Ms OF A PLAY,AND OTHER WRITINGS, Ca. 1913-1920

n.p., n.d. John Taintor Foote (1881-1950) was the foremost writer of sporting stories of his day. After completing his education at Kenyon Military Academy, Gambier Ohio, he devoted his career to writing. His first story was published in the American Magazine in 1913 (this collection contains four of his very earliest stories, published that year), and he achieved early fame with horse stories featuring the raffish track character Blister Jones, a number of which are in this collection. His reputation grew, and his story "Ordered On" (included here, under its original title "The Happy Hunting Ground") was selected as one of The Best Stories of 1916. Foote's ability to create believable plots, interesting characters, and colorful dialogue was well received; an active sportsman, hunter and angler himself, he became a popular and even distinguished writer of outdoor fiction. He also wrote or collaborated on five plays between the comedy "Toby's Bow" (here present in the original manuscript), 1919, to the drama "Julie the Great" in 1936. In 1938 he went to Hollywood to do the screenplay for his book "The Look of Eagles" (it appeared as "Kentucky", starred Loretta Young, and won an Academy Award for Walter Brennan), staying on to script such titles as "Broadway Serenade", "Swannee River", and "The Mark of Zorro" before his death in 1950. The material in this collection dates from Foote's earliest days as a writer, and was preserved by Ohio relatives after his departure for New York around 1919. The collection includes the complete texts of 24 stories: 18 in corrected holograph manuscript, 5 in corrected typescript, and one in corrected galleys. In most cases there are several reworked versions, showing the development of the final version. Also included are the complete text of "Toby's Bow", extensively reworked in manuscript, the first four chapters of Foote's novel The Interloper in corrected manuscript, and 15 holograph poems by Foote. A full description of the collection is available Approximately 1550 pp. of manuscript, 350 pp. of typescript and 33 pp. of galleys, totalling close to 244,000 words. With the exception of a few slightly browned or defective leaves, the collection is in fine condition. Foote wrote mostly in pencil, in a legible hand, on durable paper, and the collection has been carefully cared for over the intervening 80 years

Shinn, Everett

The Legend of Rip Van Winkle

n.p., 1939 A bevy of little mountain men disport themselves around a sleeping Rip; an illustration for the 1939 New York edition of Washington Irving's classic story “Rip Van Winkle”. Everett Shinn (1876-1953) had a long and distinguished career as a member of “The Eight”--the group of artists who broke away from the mid-Victorian taste of the times and ushed art into the new freedoms of the twentieth century. Shinn, who first became noteworthy by his ability to make on-the-spot newspaper illustrations of great technical brilliance, went on to become a renowned painter and illustrator, as well as an accomplished actor and playwright. This lively, decorative watercolor presents Shinn at the height of his illustrative powers, capturing the sparkling spirit of Irving's most famous work Original watercolor on paper, signed/dated “Everett Shinn 1939” lower left.

Zurich, thursday, [11 october 1900] "Dear Miss Kaufler! 'so it is true! I warmly congratulate you for your good fortune and your decision and wish you all the happiness a young girl could imagine possible. "Of course if the things I see for you in your cards should not come true and you become a swift and productive housewife, then be a pleasure to him and an example to the rest of us. "Unless the Lord has something else in mind, I will however drop in at some point and cast critical glances around your little nest, to be assured of everything with the certainty of an old nose. "My honey, along with her sister arrived here two days ago and as usual I am together with her all day long. Neither of us has been able to find a job and are living off private lessons - if only we could find something, which is still highly unlikely. Is this not just like the life of a handyman or even a gypsy? However, I think we will be quite content as always. "Hopefully you will be coming together again to Zurich, so that the friendship doesn't get rusty. I am also looking forward to seeing you conduct yourself as the 'better half.'

Webster, Noah

Autograph Letter Signed ("N Webster") to Samuel M. Hopkins of New York,discussing his plans for a specimen sheet of his proposed Dictionary

New Haven, june 14 1809 In 1806 Webster published his first dictionary, A Compendious Dictionary ofthe English Language, which was a concise dictionary intended for adults containing 37,000 words - a precursor of his great dictionary of 1828. He then published an abridgment of the Compendious Dictionary for use in schools in 1807 (and again in 1817), with the hope that the proceeds from sales of these and from his school books would provide the necessary funding for his great project, an entirely new "Complete Dictionary," which, he thought would require only a few years of labor. By 1809, Webster was trying, without great success, to sell subscriptions to the proposed volume. This letter dates from that important period, in which Webster was trying to solicit support for the project. He writes: "I have sent to Dr. Mason a specimen of my proposed Dictionary, with a few preceding observations which I request you to get a sight of - it occurred to me that the issuing of a half sheet in some such form, might aid me in my design, & a specimen of the work was mentioned by Dr. Mason. What measure my friends will think it best to take, I know not. Perhaps they may sign a recommendation of my design, & of the school books whose sales must supply me with the means of prosecuting it - & content that I should publish it with the specimen - they will take time to decide ... I saw Dr. Miller & Dr. Kos__(?) of the physicians & Dr. Beech of the Episcopal Church, who expressed the utmost readiness to cooperate with other gentlemen in the design. To the other gentlemen, I wish Dr. Morneyer (/) & some others of the clergy, lawyers & physicians, may be added ... " In typical fashion, Webster concludes the letter with some observations on his studies in the Ethiopic language, and remarks "Every new language I examine furnishes a number of new facts, & some new light of this subject, which is not without its use in explaining our own language ... " No such specimen sheet of Webster's Dictionary has ever been recorded . Skeel records a Broadside of 1807 (Skeel 581), and notes a "subscription blank, headed with an appeal for support in the project," printed as Appendix XXVII in Emily Ford's Notes on the Life of Noah Webster; two articles by Webster (The Panoplist, February 1810 & Monthly Anthology, March, 1810) appeared around this time announcing the work and asking for support (see Skeel, p. 232); and, finally, a 'prospectus' appeared in 1826 was published as an advertisement in the Connecticut Herald (May 2, 1826), with fourteen recommendations from prominent men - but no specimen has ever emerged, despite the evidence of this letter that Webster actually had one produced. An important letter from the early period of Webster's struggle to produce his great dictionary 4to. 1-1/2 pp. With integral blank, addressed and postmarked on verso. Small tears at fold, outer edges a little ragged, overall very good

Hemingway, Ernest

Autograph Letter Signed ("Ernest") to his friend Jane Mason in Havana

[Cooke, Montana, at the Nordquist L-Bar-T Ranch], 19 september [1932] Superb letter from Montana where Hemingway has been hunting. In the first two pages Hemingway writes of his experiences hunting ram: "We were sheep hunting when your letter came (saw 16 rams and climbed the godamndest peaks and spooked the rams every time on the stalk - you know - not the kind of stalk that broccoli grows on but the kind you make crawling on all fours across the face of a hill to frighten the sheep). Wonderful country but scary ... " Hemingway continues with matters concerning arrangements for his son Bumby's proposed visit and the chance that Jane might bring Bumby out if she doesn't go abroad ("But don't let the Bumby show influence your plans in the least because we can always get someone to bring him over ... "). " ... That was a masterly treatise and exhaustive treatise on fish and fauna of the Caribbean - damned fine report - it was a rotten shame to find the Bübi dog [Mason's pet] killed. The late Mr. Kipling wrote a poem on the subject - will look it up ... We feel very badly. It is a damned shame." "About Hollywood, daughter, that is your decision to make - if you will always want to go there it is best to go young and give yourself all the breaks - I wouldn't think you would like it - But I have never been there and know nothing about it and there are plenty of things people tell you that you won't like that you like very much when you try them - It seems like a hell of a big little shop to open but then if I could get down to 118 lbs and hand]t been Cecil Beaton-ed for a long time and were Mrs. George Grant Mason Jr. the notorious vanishing coed cream beauty of our times fed up on the tropics and with my dog killed why Hollywood by any other name would smell as sweet ... " " ... Anytime you're broke you can sell the enclosed Mss. and buy one good meal and a skiff (maybe) and we can all follow the garbage scows together ... Ernest." Hemingway closes with the amusing remark: "Those giant dolphins aren't our gold ones but the same we call porpoises (jesus what a handler of the English language is poor old papa!" Folio. 4 pages on 2 sheets of tan, unruled paper, in blue ink. Creased at folds, otherwise fine and crisp, with the accompanying envelope addressed in Hemingway's hand, and signed in full on the envelope

Hemingway, Ernest

Typed Letter Signed ("Ernest Hemingway") to Mr. Ronald Paulson of NewHaven, Conn., on criticism of ACROSS THE RIVER AND INTO THE TREES, hismethod of creating character, current work, soldiering, etc

Finca Vigia, San Francisco de Paula, Cuba, may 1, 1952 A fine, substantive letter to a student and admirer, soon to become a soldier, agreeing to sign a copy of his book, and with very interesting remarks on the critical response to ACROSS THE RIVER AND INTO THE TREES. "I was very interested in what you wrote about the book because the critical reception of it surprised me. Bernard Berenson, who I consider a first rate critic, wrote me that it was very good and that he liked it very much. So did other people whose judgement I trust. "But in most cases the criticism seemed to be very confused and think [sic] that I was writing some sort of megalomaniac autobiography. The Colonel I invented from what I knew of three very intelligent professional soldiers. One I had only known in this last war. But the other two I had known since I was a boy. I made him fifty one years old not because that was my own age but because that was the age of the class of '99 (in the European sense; not University) who being born in that year had fought in both wars. I DID use country I knew well and that is legitimate. "However to write of an officer with understanding and affection and respect is very suspect I guess. Then the fact that this officer was going to die seemed to anger them. That I could not figure out. Nor could I figure out all the business about such a girl being an impossible figure. Because most critics have wives or know women who look like the wives of both Alger Hiss and Whitaker Chambers doesn't mean that there is no other sort of woman. But if I ever use a real girl in a book they write that she is incredible and is some sort of a wish fulfillment fantasy. I invent the girl as I invent the Colonel but I make them up from very real people ... "Cape, I believed, jumped the gun by one day on the English edition ... the editions are quite different. I have never read the British one but believe there are numerous cuts and excisions ... .I have a book out this fall. The long, long and to hell long again book (series of books) will all finally appear. This is one of them ... " "Good luck in your soldiering ... Please give my best regards to Mr. [Robert Penn] Warren. I only met him once ... He is a good writer and he ought to be a good teacher ... ." 4to. One page, densely typed on personal letterhead of Finca Vigia, with a few corrections in pencil. Fine. Handsomely matted and framed with accompanying envelope

Hemingway, Ernest

Typed Letter Signed ("Ernie") to George Brown, his boxing coach and trainer

Finca Vigia, San Francisco de Paula, Cuba, june 26, [1942] George Brown was the owner of a gym in Manhattan where Hemingway worked out when he was in New York, and over the years Brown became Hemingway's boxing coach, personal trainer, advisor, and close friend. He was a pallbearer at Hemingway's funeral. In this high-spirited letter from Cuba, Hemingway thanks Brown for the "rubber belly reducers. They certainly are beauties. I make her [his wife, Martha Gellhorn] hang the one, the laced up one, in her bathroom in case any of my pals should ever come in and find it. The other one, made out of old truck tires, is ideal only you have to make sure you put your shoes on first as you can't bend over when you have it on. I feel like Freddy Fitzsimmons fielding a bunt with it on ... " In the next paragraph Hemingway refers to a visit from the Brooklyn Dodgers during that summer of 1942, in which they spoke of Leo Durocher: "That Saturday Evening Post of May 17 didn't get here unitl yesterday. I read the story right away. The player it refers to is who you think all right. One night I was out with Billy Herman, Larry French, Curt Davis and Augie Galan and were talking about the man in question and how much he was loved and admired by all who work under him (all the players hate his guts) and they asked if I knew he started out as a thief. If he wasn't he could certainly get himself a nice chunk of money by sueing the man who wrote the story." [Leo Durocher was player-manager for the Dodgers from 1939-1945]. Hemingway continues with news of his children, Winston]s victory in shooting at the "big Internation shoot this winter against a bunch of pros ... I'd wake him up just in time to have a good scotch and soda, he'd shoot and kill and then go back to sleep. Twenty six birds straight, twenty six scotches and sodas, excpt that I would throw away what ever was in the glass after he shot ... " Hemingway writes about the new ambassador to Cuba ("Spruille Braden") being a boxing fan, and suggests that he and Brown work out with him on Brown's next vist. "I'm going to have a workout with him some afternoon soon. He has a big belly so probably you have to be careful about hitting it and then when you are being carefl he gives you the old Gimbel ... 4to. 2pp., on two sheets of personal stationery.

Havana, Cuba, n.d.

Only a few days earlier, she, her son Tony, and Hemingway's sons had been in a car accident and narrowly escaped serious injuries. At this period, Hemingway had recently finished the collection of stories he called WINNER TAKE NOTHING, and was spending his days marlin fishing in the Gulf Stream. He writes to his friend: "I feel so terribly damned bad about them having to operate on your back that I can't write you. But if I don't write you'd probably never get it. So here goes ... The sky is full of the wool clouds that come after a hurricane has gone somewhere else. My head full of slightly wooliness of how I feel after catching 343 lb.
