Any bid which is not commensurate with the value of the article offered or which is merely a nominal or fractional advance may be rejected by the auctioneer if in his judgment such bid would be likely to affect the sale injuriously. 2. The Buyer. The highest bidder shall be the buyer, and if any dispute arises between two or more bidders, the auctioneer shall either decide the same or put up for resale the lot so in dispute. 3. Identification and Part Payment by Buyer. The name of the buyer of each lot shall be given immediately on the sale thereof and when so required, each buyer shall sign a card giving the lot number, amount for which sold, and his or her name and address. Payment at the actual time of the sale shall be made of all or such part of the purchase prices as may be required. If the two foregoing conditions are not complied with, the lot or lots so purchased may at the option of the auctioneer be put up again and resold. 4. Risk After Purchase. Title passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer and thereafter neither the consignor nor the Association is responsible for the loss or any damage to any article occasioned by theft, fire, breakage or any cause. 5. Delivery of Purchases. Delivery of any purchases will be made only upon payment of the total amount due for all purchases at the sale. Deliveries will be made at the place of sale or at the storage warehouse to which purchases may have been removed. Deliveries at the American Art Galleries will be made only between the hours of nine a. m. and one p. m. on sales’ days and on other days—except holidays, when no deliveries will be made—between the hours of nine a. m. and five p. m. Deliveries at places of sale other than the American Art Galleries will be made only during the forenoon following the day of sale unless by special notice or arrangement to the contrary. Deliveries at the Storage warehouse to which goods may have been sent will be made on any day other than holidays between the hours of nine and five. Deliveries of any purchases of small articles likely to be lost or mislaid may be made at the discretion of the auctioneer during the session of the sale at which they were sold. 6. Storage in Default of Prompt Payment and Calling for Goods. Articles not paid for in full and either not called for by the purchaser or delivered upon his or her order by noon of the day following that of the sale will be turned over by the Association to some carter to be carried to and stored in some warehouse until the time of the delivery therefrom to the purchaser, and the cost of such cartage and storage will be charged against the purchaser and the risk of loss or damage occasioned by such removal or storage will be upon the purchaser. Note: The limited space of the Delivery Rooms of the Association makes the above require- ments necessary, and it is not alone for the benefit of the Association, but also for that of its pa- trons, whose goods otherwise would have to be so crowded as to be subject to damage and loss. 7. Shipping. Boxing or wrapping of purchases is a business in which the Association is in no wise engaged, and will not be performed by the Association for purchasers. The Association will, however, afford to purchasers every facility for employing at current and reasonable rates carriers and packers; doing so, however, without any assumption of responsibility on its part for the acts and charges of the parties engaged for such service. 8. Guaranty. The Association exercises great care to catalogue every lot correctly and endeavors therein and also at the actual time of sale to point out any error, defect or imperfec- tion, but guaranty is not made either by the owner or the Association of the correctness of the description, genuineness, authenticity or condition of any lot and no sale will be set aside on account of any incorrectness, error of cataloguing or imperfection not noted or pointed out. Every lot is sold “as is” and without recourse. Every lot is on public exhibition gne or more days prior to its sale, and the Association will give consideration to the opinion of any trustworthy expert to the effect that any lot has been incorrectly catalogued and in its judgment may thereafter sell the lot as catalogued or make mention of the opinion of such expert, who thereby will become responsible for such damage as might result were his opinion without foundation. 9. Buying on Order. Buying or bidding by the Association for responsible parties on orders transmitted to it by mail, telegraph or telephone will be faithfully attended to without charge or commission. Any purchases so made will be subject to the foregoing conditions of sale except that in the event of purchases consisting of one or more books for one who has not himself or through his agent been personally at the exhibition or sale, any book may be re- turned within ten days of the date of sale and will be refunded the purchase money therefore, if the book in any material manner differs from its catalogue description. Orders for execution by the Association should be written and given with such plainness as to leave no room for misunderstanding. Not only should the lot number be given, but also the title, and bids should be stated to be so much for the lot, and when the lot consists of one or more volumes of books or objects of art, the bid per volume or piece should be also stated. If the one transmitting the order is unknown to the Association, a deposit should be sent or reference submitted. Shipping directions should also be given. Priced copies of the catalogue of any sale or any session thereof, will be furnished by the Association at charges commensurate with the duties involved in copying the necessary information from the records of the Association.

BRADFORD (WILLIAM—First New York Printer) Imprint. Know All Men by these Present . . . One page folio, verso blank, and third and fourth pages blank. [New York: William Bradford, circa 1729] One of the Rare Printed forms of Obligations, filled in in pen-and-ink. Dated, “fifth day of June, one thousand seven hundred and thirty one. Signed Jacob Van- deirson. Delivered in the Presence of Abrah Gouverneur and Abel Hardenbrook. Docketed on back,—“Obligation Van Jacob Vanduson of N York to Elsie Sanders. Recd. by the hands of Hardenbrook Executor of the Estate of John Harperdinch.” Altho the above does not bear Bradford’s imprint, the same is undoubtedly orinted by him, on American manufactured paper, made by him at his Elizabeth- town, N. J. mill, established in 1725. Abraham Gouverneur, who signs the document as a witness, was a person who bore rather a conspicuous part during the period of Leisler’s usurpation. Gouverneur married his daughter and was a firm supporter of his father-in-law. He was clerk of the Committee of Safety that appointed Leisler “to be Captain of the Fort of New York.” Gouverneur declared Leisler “had carried the government of New York by the sword and had the same right to it as King William had to the Crown.” At the attack upon the fort, Gouverneur is said to have slain a man with his own hand. After the capture of Leisler he was tried with eight others and condemned to death; reprieved, awaiting the King’s pleasure, he then fled to Boston where he arrived with nothing but “two shirts and a cravat.” Upon his return to New York 1e was instrumental in having the remains of Leisler given Christian burial in the “crypt of the Old Dutch Church.” 14.

Autograph Document, Signed, 28 pp. Mexico, May 29, 1744. “Informe” on the best method of fortifying Pensacola. VeRY IMpoRTANT DOCUMENT WRITTEN AND SIGNED BY DE RIVERA. Outlines the previous history of the place from the occupation by the Spaniards in 1606; gives a short history of the occupation of Louisiana by the French; discusses the various [Continued Sale, Friday Afternoon, March 17th [No. 197. FLORIDA, SPANIARDS IN.—Continued] plans of the government and engineers and insists on the necessity of some kind of occupation and protection in Louisiana, chiefly for fear that the English would occupy the place and open a communication through to the Carolinas, thus cutting off Florida. He quotes de Bienville, who, it seems, had already given similar advice to the Spanish authorities in Cuba. The writer of this document, Pedro de Rivera, was for a long time the principal military authority in New Spain. He made a tour of the interior provinces to in- spect the presidios between 1725 and 1728, and the account of his expedition to the eastern part was published in Guatemala in 1736. RIveRA (JOSEPH Primo DE). Document Signed, 14pp. Mexico, November 2, 1723. “Informe” on conditions in Pensacola. Signed,—“Joseph Primo de Vivera [sic]”. Docketed on back,—“Mexco 2 de Novre de 1723 Don Joseph Primo de Rivera.” Original Manuscript, signed by Rivera (or Vivera?), in which he discusses the presidio at Pensacola and the danger of the occupation of the Bay by foreigners. At this time the Bays of St. Joseph and Santa Maria de Galve were unoccupied, and he puts up a strong plea for their fortification. At the beginning of the document the writer is called, “D. Joseph Primo de Rivera, Capitan de Cavallas Corasas del Presidio de S. Augustin de la Florida,” and the name is also written “Rivera” in the docketing on back, but the signature is unmistakably written “Vivera.” CASAFUERTE (MARQUES DE) AND OTHERS, Document, 22pp. Mexico, October 6, 1732 and November 15, 1734. Contemporary copy of Instructions to Don Ignacio Dauteuil, Capitan de Fragata regarding a voyage of investi- gation to the Bay of San Simon.

With manuscript map of the Coast of Florida, 115% by 20% inches, descriptive notes and list of places written on either side, outside of above measurements. Together, 2 pieces.

With two indorsements on back, dated, July 11, 1723, and July 2, 1725, respectively. Waucuop (ALEXANDRO). Document, 22pp. [1722?] Contemporary docu- ment, containing a summary of letters written by Don Alexandro Wauchop from Punta de Siguenza, February 15th to 27th, no year, but probably 1722, regarding the evacuation of the Bay of San Joseph, and the building of a fortress at Punta de Siguenza, and also relating to his negotiations with de Bienville. Wauchop, it seems, had been instructed to evacuate the Bay of San Joseph and transport the garrison to Punta de Siguenza, where a fortress was to be built. He says that the place selected is not appropriate and the fort, as contemplated, not large enough. Also relates to his negotiations with de Bienville. ALBUQUERQUE (DUQUE DE) AND LINARES (DUQUE DE). Document, 5 pp. No place, no date. Contemporary document, containing extracts from the instructions given by the Duque de Albuquerque to his successor the Duque de Linares, and by Linares to the Marques de Valero, in regard to the presidio of Pensacola, probably written about 1720. SarzA y AZCONA (JULIO DE). Document, 4pp. Pensacola, October 28, 1727, and December 15, 1727. Contemporary document, containing copies of two private letters written by Sarza y Ancona, from the Presidio of Pensa- cola. Very interesting letters giving intimate details of living conditions in Florida at this period, which the writer considers a decidedly undesirable place in which to live.

It was made from Life with Sittings at Dolly Madison’s Wash- ington Residence in 1846. Daniel Webster, the great American orator and statesman, wished to possess this portrait, Eastman Johnson however was unwilling to part with it, but made another for Webster on the order of Governor Robert C. Winthrop of Massachusetts. This portrait is a beautiful sketch of one of the most charming mistresses of the White House. As Dorothy Payne, granddaughter of John Payne, she married John Todd, a Pennsylvania lawyer, who died in 1793. In September of the following year, 1794, to the delight of President Washington and his wife, she married James Madi- son, who later became the fourth President of the United States. Everyone is familiar with Mrs. Madison’s social position at the national capital, where she was a great favorite, and where she was granted the freedom of the floor of the Senate chamber— the only woman to whom this honor was accorded. She was also given franking privileges. Marne. An Address | To the Numerous and Respectable Inhabitants of the | Great and Extensive District of MAINE. | Folio, pp.3, uncut.

Lesueur. 2 on 5 Is) 4% by 734 inches each. Together, 12 pieces. Charles Alexander Lesueur who made these sketches, came to the United States from the West Indies, and very early joined Robert Owen’s “New Harmony Society,” where he continued to reside for a number of years as one of the small band of dis- inguished scientists who made this place headquarters for a long time. He furnished plates for Say’s books on Entomology and Conchology, and seems also to have been painting. He afterwards returned to France, where the above plates appeared in Paris, and lived for some time as Curator of the Museum at Havre. Besides the above mentioned publications we know of no other to which Lesueur contributed. The present series comprises views along the Mississippi River, including,—Loftus heights et fort Adams; Ellis cliffs; Lake Pont-Chartrain; Petit Gulf; Grand Gulf; Walnut Hill; Natchez; Memphis; Randolph; Chalk Banks; Iron Bank; and Cou- fleunt, Ohio-Mississippi. o.

In reply, the Governor says that it will not be aneasy task, as they have erected a fortification in which there are 300 English and 200 Indians, and refers to a similar attempt in 1721, when it took five months to expel the English from the Cavo de Catoch.

FINE MANUSCRIPT, WRITTEN BY PEDRO DE RIVERA, in which he gives an ex- tended account of the Mosquitos, a tribe of half-breeds (negro and Indian) which inhabited a section of the coast of Nicaragua and Honduras, and over which the British exercised a protectorate at that time. De Rivera describes their origin, present condition and their traffic with the English in Jamaica. This connection with the English was very annoying to the Spaniards, and they made several efforts to exterminate the tribe, and de Rivera here lays out another plan of campaign for the same purpose, though not over-sanguine as to its success.

The fort here described was being erected under the orders of the Vice-Roy of New Spain, the Conde de Fuenclara, for the purpose, according to Prospen, of acting as a defence against the Indians, but its true use was undoubtedly meant to be to defend the river against any attack by the English, in the impending war (War of 1745). 287.

With original manuscript map of the Rio San Juan de Nicaragua and surrounding country, 12 by 1634 inches. Together, 2 pieces. IMPORTANT DOCUMENT RELATING TO NICARAGUA. From this letter it appears that the Spaniards were very much alarmed at the prospect of an attack by the English in an attempt to get possession of the Rio San Juan de Nicaragua at this time (the War of 1745). The letter is devoted to a description of the means taken to fortify the country against this expected attack, and the map shows the location of the proposed fortifications. The map is excellently drawn and of great historical interest, as it shows the various settlements and sites of all fortifications along the river, and on the adja- cent coast of Nicaragua and Honduras. 288.
