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 soin 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 endeavours 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 one 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 the purchaser will be refunded the purchase money therefor, 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. s AMERICAN ART ASSOCIATION American Art Galleries The Madison Avenue Block Entrance, 30 East 57th Street New York City At THe AMERICAN ART GALLERIES THE MADISON AVENUE BLOCK 56TH TO 57TH STREETS ENTRANCE, 30 EVACSae §7TH STREET, NEW YORK CITY UNRESTRICTED PUBLIC SALE OF LITERARY PROPERTY BY ORDER OF PARTIES HEREINBEFORE DESIGNATED BAKER-KENNEDY-DOYLE AND OTHER COLLECTIONS First Session, Numbers 1 to 213, inclusive TUESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 30 TH AT 8:15 O’CLOCK 1.

AMERICAN REVCLUTION.—Continued | 426 SUPERB PorTRAITS, of the very choicest quality, mainly folio prints, the others having been finely inlaid to size on a high quality paper. The portraits comprise practically every Notable mentioned in the work and includes a large number of very fine early prints, among them a long series of contemporary issues of the greatest rarity, making a grand total of 751 extra pieces such as Autographs, Views, Portraits, Maps and Plans, placed in their proper places throughout the 25 volumes. “Tt is not too much to characterize this work as monumental. For some thirty years, Mr. Stevens took notes of all the material he could find relating to the period of the American Revolution, and in this vast collection embodies 2107 documents, reproduced in facsimile, chiefly from the Public Record Office, the Royal (Military) Institution, the Tower of London, and the British Museum, in England, the French Bureau des Affaires Etrangéres, in France, and the private collections of the Marquis of Abergavenny, the Earl of Carlisle, the Earl of Dartmouth, Lord Auck- land, and of Mr. Stevens; and the editor does not exaggerate the value of the result when he asserts that ‘it is like taking up a whole collection of the State Paper Office of London or Paris, and transferring it to an American library.’ A condition made by the Public Record Office in London, in giving access to all papers, ‘whether general, confidential, secret, or most secret,’ was, Mr. Stevens states, ‘that I should take the whole, or leave the whole of each individual document, and that I should garble none, as had been done by two most eminent historians;’ and a little experi- mentation with printed texts convinced him that it was impossible to obtain accurate printing. ‘In this dilemma I conceived the notion of attempting to solve the difficulty by substituting the art of photography, with its incontrovertible and recognized accuracy, as the mode of making my further copies of original manuscripts. Each document is an absolute facsimile, without any editorial words or explanation to alter its appearance as compared with the original, except an identifying mark and number for reference; but annexed to it is a separate statement, or title-page, with corresponding mark and number, indicating its endorsements, enclosures, seals, memoranda, etc., with various notes and references, the location of its original, its duplicates, triplicates, etc., if any, and if printed, where. There is also added ina note in a legible handwriting, a translation into English, when the document origi- nated in another language. . . . The translations are intended to be literal rather than literary. They are given upon the advice of some of the best known students.’ So well has the work been done, that the editor’s claim that his facsimiles, ‘for all practical purposes, are the originals themselves,’ is no exaggeration. Indeed, in his initial experiments in reproducing them, he states that he was ‘both compli- mented and grieved to find that some facsimiles were taken to be originals, and some originals were pronounced to be facsimiles,’ leading him to have special paper manufactured for the work. Volume XXV is a most admirable Index with cross- references, chronological lists, etc.” PAuL LEICESTER Forp, in The Literature of American History. Edited by J. N. Larned, 1902. 23.

The author, Nicolo Franco, was the friend of Pietro Aretino, the Satirical Poet. They quarrelled on account of this very work—Le Pistole. The last poem in the book—‘“All’ Invidia”—seemed to Aretino to be directed against him. Therefore he attacked Franco in, and the latter replied with his commentary upon, the Priapea, attributed to Virgil. MADAME DE POMPADOUR’S COPY 57. ASSOCIATION BINDING. PLuTARCH.

For several years Sandys was a member of the Virginia Council. The first five books of the Metamorphoses were finished and printed in 1621, and a second edition was printed, but apparently no copy of either is known. The remaining ten books were translated during the early years of his stay in Virginia, two being completed “amongst the roaring of the seas,” and thus this volume is considered to be the first great poetical composition of America. Editions were printed in London in 1626 and 1628. The present magnificent royal book is dedicated to Charles I. It was presented to his son the boy-prince by his royal father at the time of his establishment as Prince of Wales in 1638 when but eight years of age. WITH ARMS OF CARDINAL RICHELIEU 60.

Benevento, the capital of that Province, about 45 miles distant from Naples, boasts, next to Rome, to be the most ancient town in Italy and perhaps no other Italian City possesses so many remains of antiquity. This Poem in honor of the City is dedicated to Cardinal Cenci and this copy was bound especially for him. Needlework and velvet bindings of this period are of the greatest rarity and a finely preserved and important “Association” volume like the present is very rarely seen outside of Museums. 115.

A large gold Coat of Arms of the College was stamped on both covers, presumably at the time of presentation. The binding and tooling bear evidence of being French, and compare in minutize with “Les Oraisons de Ciceron” bound by Antoine Ruette for Pierre Siguier, Magistrate of France, most of whose books found their way into the Bibliothéque Nationale. It contains numerous marginal annotations, in an old hand, probably that of Antony Roland, whose name is written on title-page. 120. BINDING. SQUIRE (JANE).

Mr. Michelmore, in his The Doublure, says of it,—“This style of binding was at its best about the close of the seventeenth and beginning of the eighteenth century. The excellence of these bindings can best be judged from the forwarding.” BINDING witH DouBLuRES. NEw TESTAMENT, GREEK. Nouum Iesv Christi D.N. Testamentum. Cum duplici interpretatione, D.

MANuscRIPT BY NICHOLAS JARRY, ON VELLUM. Priéres durant la Messe. Iliaminated manuscript by Nicolas Jarry, (1633- 1663), written in black and red, with a number of capitals in gold, within gold- ruled margins, on 24 leaves (including 3 blanks) of fine vellum, 7 by 434 inches. First leaf illuminated in Persian style with border in ochre outlined in red and ornamented with vivid blue and gold fleurons, and center medallion in ochre and blue with rose wreath enclosing double monogram “AD” in gold on vivid blue ground; second leaf with title in gold and blue lettering with orna- mental design below, within border of grey and white outlined in red, orna- mented with grape leaves and wheat in green and gold, symbolical of the ele- ments of the Blessed Sacrament; two illuminated head-pieces with religious emblems, one other head-piece and two tail-pieces in floral designs, all beauti- fully illuminated in gold and blue or red; two initial letters in burnished gold, one with floral ground, the other with diapered ground in blue and gold, num- erous smaller capitals in gold.

Middle Seventeenth Century MICHELMORE, in his The Doublure, says,—“This type of binding, generally known as Jansenist on account of the severe plainness of the exterior, in reference to the austere rule of the Jansenist community, came into fashion in the second half of the seventeenth century, and was especially popular towards the end. The binder most celebrated for this class of binding was Luc Antoine Boyet and the present remark- able binding is his work.” Referring to the manuscript, Mr. Michelmore says,— This very choice devotional Manuscript is the work of the eminent seventeenth-century calligraphist—NICHOLAS JARRY. It is moreover twin-brother to the Jerry Manuscript with an exactly similar title which sold in the Parisot sale in 1856.” eS BAKER-KENNEDY-DOYLE AND OTHER COLLECTIONS 120. 130.

Monsieur Quentin-Bauchart in his ‘Les Femmes Bib- liophiles,’ does not even mention this lady.” —MicHELMoRE, The Doublure. The author, Jean Adrian Helvetius, whose autograph signature is found at end of Dedication, was born in Holland about 1661, died in Paris in 1727. He was the discoverer of the medicinal properties of the root Ipecacuanna, with which he suc- cessfully treated cases of dysentery in the Dauphin, son of Louis XIV, and others, and was later Physician to the Regent Phillippe, Duc d’Orléans. A manuscript note on fly-leaf, in an old hand, attributes the binding to Du Seuil, but Mr. Michelmore states that the fleur-de-lis tooling on the rims is found only in Boyet’s bindings, and therefore attributes the work to Boyet.

BookBINDINGS.—Continued | Hoe’s library. He was particularly interested in the art of bookbinding and that de- partment of his collection was of surpassing interest. Not only were all the great modern binders represented, but there was a remarkable array of the work of the earlier masters, many rich in the interest of past ownership and other associations. Foremost in importance were the volumes bound for that distinguished lover of books, Jean Grolier, the dates ranging between 1516 and 1552. There are several bindings of great historical interest, produced chiefly at Lyons and Paris, for Francis I, Henry the Dauphin, Henry II, and Diana of Poictiers, Henry III and others. Richly ornamented bindings by Nicholas and Clovis Eve, Le Gascon and others worthy of mention. A feature of the collection is the large number of bindings bound for Kings, Queens, Great Book Collectors and “Femmes Bibliophiles.” There are numerous reproductions of examples by Cobden-Sanderson, Trautz- Bauzonnet, Chambolle-Duru, Cuzin, and mosaic specimens from the Club Bindery. 148.

Sardanapalus, a Tragedy. The Two Foscari, a Tragedy. Cain, a Mystery. 8vo, original boards with new back and corner pieces, entirely uncut. Preserved in a polished calf case. London: John Murray, 1821 First Epitron. This important and interesting copy belonged to JuNrus BRuTUS Bootu, the eminent Shakespearean actor and rival of Edmund Kean, and has, on the title-page, his autograph signature “Junius B. Booth. Philada. 1823.” The book is annotated, passages are marked and others are altered throughout in the hand- writing of the great actor. There are 187 annotations and corrections and they con- stitute Booth’s ORIGINAL MANuscriPt of the dramatization of “Sardanapalus” and “The Two Foscari” acted in the United States. Among these notes and annotations Booth has added the names of the actors on tour with him who filled the réles when the tragedies were produced in the United States; he has noted whether the entrances and exits are to be made right or left; marked passages for deletion, alterations in the directions, scenery, etc. For example, near the end of Act I of “The Two Foscari” are the words “Exit Loredano.” Booth has altered this to “Loredano smiles bitterly and exit.” The other numerous annotations are equally interesting. On the title-page of the “Two Foscari,” Booth has written that it was “first per- formed at Baltimore, U. S., October 12th, 1822. Warren and Woods, Managers, Holiday Street.” This statement is of the greatest importance, as it is believed to be the Frrst KNown Recorp of the fact. The Dictionary of National Biography does not state that either “Sardanapalus” or “The Two Foscari” were ever dramatized. Indeed that publication infers that no dramatized versions ever appeared. It was during his first visit to America in 1821 that Booth took this important copy of Sardanapalus with him and altered it. Junius Brutus Booth was the father of John Wilkes Booth, the American actor, who assassinated President Lincoln. The present is the only book with this extremely interesting association interest of this great actor that has occurred. 175. Byron (GEORGE Gorpon, Lorp). The Works of Lord Byron.

THACKERAY’S SET OF “CAROLINE TRACTS” 180. CAROLINE Divorce ScANDAL Tracts. A collection of 48 pamphlets, of a scurrilous and satirical order, all relating to the Adultery Trial started by George IV. against his Queen. With numerous colored caricatures, many of them folding plates. Bound in 5 vols. old half pink calf, leather labels. Each volume in half morocco case. London, 1813-1822 WiLtiaM MAKEPEACE THACKERAY’S SET with his autograph signature W. M. Thackeray in his characteristic hand on the title of the first tract in Vol. 1, and on the title of the first tract in Vol. III. This collection was undoubtedly formed by Thackeray for use in his work on the “Rour Georges,” 1861, from which the following is an excerpt, —“As I read her trial in history, I vote she is not guilty. I don’t say it is an impartial verdict; but as one reads her story the heart bleeds for the kindly, generous, outraged creature. Spite o her follies, the great hearty people of England loved, and protected her, and pitie her. The illustrations are mainly the work of Robert Cruikshank, Heath, Huston, and others. Many of these are extra-plates not published with the tracts and appear to be the work of Rowlandson and Gillray, although they are not signed, which is no to be wondered at considering their scurrilous nature, as many of them are of the extremely gross character so much affected by these men. Most of these scurrilous tracts were published by Hone and some other men who did not always use their own names. They form an interesting side-light on the effor of George IV to get rid of his Queen by charging her with adultery. Nearly every wi a oe day had a hand at writing these tracts and their exact authorship will never e known.

This manuscript is entirely in the handwriting of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, includ- ing a list of “dramatis personae,” 7 pages of reference notes and quotations, and the following title,—“Micah Clarke his statement As made to his three Grandchildren Gervas Reuben and Joseph during the hard winter of 1734. Wherein is contained A full report of certain passages in his life together with some account of his Journey from Havant to Taunton with Colonel Decimus Saxon, the adventures that befell them during the Western Rebellion and their intercourse with George Duke of Monmouth, Lord Gray and other persons of quality. Compiled day by day from his own narration by Joseph Clarke, and never previously set forth in print. Now for the first time collected, corrected and given to j the public by A.

Super Quinquagesimum Psalmum. Smal 4to, vellum. [Cologne: Printer of Augustinus de fide] 1473 This edition belongs to a group of books printed at Cologne, three of which have a date 1473. Later researches on Cologne printing have proved rie probable that the printer of this group may also be the printer of the group assigned to the “Printer o Dictys,” and that both groups are the work of Goiswi in Gops de Euskirchen, who printed some books at Cologne i in 1475. The “Dictys” group is the earliest, then come the “Augustinus de fide” books, of which three are dated 1473, and two mention the place of printing, Cologne. Of this separate work of Chrysostom four editions appear to be known. The present copy has been pubreated throughout. It has manuscrip signatures and foliation.

Each volume enclosed in its original green leather case. London: T. Cadell, 1801 A SUPERLATIVE COPY, WITH A FORE-EDGE PAIN‘®ING ON EACH VOLUME AND THE GENUINE WorRK OF THE CELEBRATED HALIFAX BOOKBINDER AND PAINTER. He was the inventor of the art of fore-edge painting, fine examples of this branch of his work exemplified in the fore-edge paintings of the above volumes, below described, as well as the originator of gilt decoration on vellum covers. CONTEMPORARY EXAMPLES LIKE THE ABOVE ARE OF THE Utmost Rarity, even single volumes being seldom offered. He has his imitators, however, but his vellum bindings cannot be imitated or the brilliancy of his painting be approached. ON THE FoRE-EDGE OF EACH OF THE ABOVE VOLUMES, EDWARDS Has PAINTED A LITTLE MASTERPIECE, viz., Vol. I. Denham Palace, Buckinghamshire, a stately building standing in a wooded field, with three figures in the fore-ground; Vol. I1. Hampton House, in Middlesex, the seat of Mrs. Garrick, a large mansion, a summer- house, and grounds with trees; Vor. III. Riponden Village between Manchester and Halifax, the castle and several smaller buildings, a bridge over the river, roads, and the hilly background; Vol. 1V. Felbrig in Norfolk, seat of the Rt. Hon. Wm. Wynd- ham, a large mansion in a wooded field, a smaller house, two figures and a post-chaise in the fore-ground. This set was undoubtedly executed by Edwards for one of his Patrons living near him in Halifax, as all the scenes are very near that town. FRAGONARD (Honoré). Sa Vie et Son Guvre.

In his preface he calls the book “this first translation of a Classic in this Western World,” and he wishes it may prove “a happy omen that Philadelphia shall become the seat of the American Muses.” 300.

En- graved portrait. Neat pen-and-ink title-page inserted. Bound in small folio volume, full dark blue crushed levant morocco, Janseneste, inside gilt den- telle borders, gilt top, uncut, BY MACDONALD. A MANUSCRIPT OF THE GREATEST INTEREST, as Grant’s only contributions to literature consist of this and two or three other articles written for the “Century Magazine,” and his “Personal Memoirs,” in which the above article was later in- corporated. Although written at Grant’s dictation by an amanuensis, the manu- script bears corrections in the handwriting of Grant, notably the sentence on page 36, which give it the associative interest and importance of an autograph manuscript, and it would be difficult to conceive of a topic on which he could write with greater authority and conviction than the Vicksburg Campaign, generally regarded as his most brilliant military achievement.

The reader will naturally think it represents some knowledge of comparative folk-lore on the part of the author. He is willing to make affidavit that he knows no more on the subject than a blind horse knows about Sunday.—Joel Chandler Harris, Altanta, Ga., May, 1900.” MANUSCRIPT OF THE GREATEST AMERICAN INTEREST. Harris’s “Uncle Remus,” in spite of what the joking author says of his want of folk-lore knowledge, has taken its place as this country’s foremost contribution to folk-lore. Mr. Harris, in presenting this Manuscript, stated that it was all that remained of the collection as sent to his publisher, the balance never having been returned to him, as it was destroyed at the printer’s. We have here the major portion of the work, each story being really complete in itself. AUTHOR’S ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT HaApRIS (JOEL CHANDLER).

Tur Complete OricGiInAL Manuscriet SIGNED oF His “LINES ON THE BIRTH OF THE PRINCESS ALICE.” 3 sheets. Inlaid. [See Reproduction of Autograph] This Princess, born April 25, 1843, was the third child of Queen Victoria. She married in 1862, H. R. H. Louis IV, Grand-Duke of Hesse; died in December, 1878. Hunt’s poem, which covers three long sheets of paper, and is inlaid with portrait and a beautiful transcript into a full levant volume, is his most delightful piece of verse of welcome to a royal infant. It is especially so in its reference to Queen Victoria, whom the poet calls, Thy sweet, strong-hearted mother. The present manuscript shows Hunt’s genius at its best. ILLUMINATIONS OF FRESCOES IN THE CATHEDRAL OF ST. VITUS 358. ILLUMINATED LEAVES ON VELLUM. Three Vellum Leaves, each 1214 by 834 inches, from a Sixteenth Century Manuscript Life, in Latin, of Saint Wenceslaus of Bohemia, comprising,—TITLE-PAGE, with lettering, “Vita, et Martyrivm Sancti Venceslai Bohemie Regis, Iconibvs ex Sacello eidem dicato in Ecclesia maiori arcis pragensis de sumtis, pictis et illuminatis, exornatum,” in triangular space at top with gold ruled border at two lower sides, quotation from Psalms below, miniature of Saint Wenceslaus in full armor with shield and lance at left, and of a nun at right, each miniature with colored canopy above it, quotation and miniatures framed with bands of burnished gold; balance of page filled in with figures of mermaids, mer- men, grotesques, birds, foliate designs, etc., all painted in delicate colors touched with gold, on the white vellum ground; Lear, numbered “Capuvt. IIII,” Wir Mintature, 9 by 734 inches. Shows Saint Wenceslaus in shot gold robe and burnished gold halo, standing before an altar with mis- sal, chalice and paten in his hands, attended by priests and acolytes in brightly colored robes, with reredos in dull gold showing the Crucifixion in center panel and Virgin in the end panel, above the altar, with background of neutral colored stone walls, columns and floor. With rz lines of text; LEAF, “Capvt. V.,” With MINIATURE, 9 by 734 inches. Saint Wenceslaus giving alms to a beggar while he holds a child by his other hand, a woman, another man and several other children standing near, the figures in vividly colored garments; stone floor and arched doorway in gray tones, green trees in distance. Wath 9 lines of text. Each leaf surrounded by broad marginal rule of burnished gold, the two leaves with miniatures with a similar rule between miniature and text. Together, 3 pieces, matted. Sixteenth Century These Beautifully Illuminated Leaves together with those listed in the six numbers following, are probably the ONLY Copres EXTANT OF THE BEAUTIFUL FRESCOES ON THE UpPpER WALLS OF THE CHAPEL OF ST. WENCESLAUS IN THE CATHEDRAL OF Str. Virus, PRAGUE, BOHEMIA. The original paintings Were executed in the time of Charles IV in the latter half of the 14th Century, and were perhaps done by Meister Oswald who decorated the lower portion of the same walls. Between 1540 and 1570 the restoration of the paintings was authorized, but it seems that they were too high on the walls for the artist designated to reach them, and were finally left untouched. In 1585 Matthias Hutsky of Piirglitz made a copy of the paintings for Duke Frederick of Tyrol, and it is VERY PROBABLE THAT THE PRESENT SERIES comprises THE Copy MADE By HIM. The miniatures show many of the crudities of the earlier period at which the originals were executed, notably in the free use of vivid greens, but the contrasts of the bright colors with the beautifully tinted grays and mauves of the walls is most artistically rendered, and the entire series of miniatures are distinctly pleasing in coloring and execution. The paintings are unfaded, the colors fresh and brilliant, the burnished gold, though slightly chipped in some places, for the most part is untarnished, and aside from some slight water-stains, mostly on margins, are in EXCELLENT STATE OF PRESERVATION.

The manuscript lacks the first four pages, the loss of which is described in a note in the volume, written and signed by Mr. F. Chandler, son of the original owner, as follows,—‘This manuscript was loaned 10 a lady friend, who returned it with the first four leaves missing—saying ‘the baby got hold of it, and tore them up’.” ASIDE FROM THIS THE MANuscript IS COMPLETE, AND IT IS THE ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT FROM WHICH THE FirST EDITION OF THE WORK, AS PUBLISHED IN “CRAYON Mis- CELLANY,” Vol. II, New York, 1835, WAS PRINTED, the typesetters’ names appearing on the margins in several places; the page numbers of the printed text have been also added in a number of instances. As this is the original manuscript used in the printing, the text of the manuscript and the printed work read practically the same, with possibly some slight variations made during the proofreading. The manuscript is written throughout in Irving’s small but fairly legible hand, on octavo sheets, an ordinary page containing 20-22 lines averaging about 145 words to the page, with numerous cancellations and alterations, interlineations and additions. Many sheets have been cut and pasted, a single page consisting often of three or four pieces of paper, and many are extended to royal octavo length, with a few sheets written on both sides and hinged to the larger leaves. The following letter received by the Association from the present private owner regarding the two manuscripts and their original owner may prove interesting,— “These manuscripts were given to Adoniram Chandler by Irving; were, at his death, left to his son Franklin Chandler and came through Franklin Chandler to the present generation of the family. “Adoniram Chandler was born in Maine (then a province of Massachusetts), the son of Thomas and Abigail Chandler in 1791. He came to New York, a printer, shortly before the war of 1812, in which he served as Warrant Officer on the U. S. S. Lady of the Lake, under Commodore Chauncy in the campaign on Lake Ontario. “After the war he returned to New York and the printing and stereotyping business. In 1833, after years of service in the 85th New Vork State Infantry, he became Colonel. In 1836 the Senate and Assembly in joint resolutions elected him Com- missary General of the State. He had already served several terms in the Assembly. “Contemporary accounts credit him with being one of the founders of the American Institute, 1828, and, for years, a Trustee; President of the New York Typographical Society, and also of the Society of Mechanics and Tradesmen. “Correspondence with Noah Webster show him to have been Webster's chief authority for mechanical and scientific terms as embodied in his Dictionary, and the printer of Webster’s Spelling Book. i “He died in 1854 leaving a son,'Franklin Chandler, who later, served as President of the Mechanics Bank in Wall Street for many years and died in 1903. “These facts may lend additional interest to the manuscripts.” .

THE ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT USED FOR THE PRINTING OF THE First EpITION OF THIs Work, AS ISSUED IN THE “CRAYON MISCELLANYS,” Vol. III, New York, 1835, with the typesetters’ names written in margins, and the page numbers of the First Epirion indicated at intervals through the manuscript. The manuscript has been carefully compared with the printed text, and agrees with it, with perhaps some slight variations which were made during the proofreading. The manuscript is written throughout in Irving’s small but fairly legible hand, on octavo sheets, an ordinary page containing 20-22 lines averaging about 145 words to the page, with numerous cancellations and alterations, interlineations and addi- tions. Many sheets have been cut and pasted, a single page often consisting of three or four pieces of paper, and some are extended thus to royal 8vo length. It is interesting to note that this work was written by Irving in Spain, during the summer of 1829 while he was living in the old Moorish palace of the Alhambra, as the “Legend of the Subjugation of Spain,” is dated at the end,—“Alhambra, June roth, 18209.” A manuscript note written by the owner of the volume, which is inserted at yeginning, regarding the publication of the work and its contents, reads,—“In an edition of these papers, arranged and edited by Mr. Pierre M. Irving, and published by G. P. Putnam, Hurd & Houghton in 1866, found in the Astor Library, the follow- ing remarks appear in the preface. ‘A limited edition of the Legends of the Conquest of Spain, was published in 1835, and has long ago been exhausted. These Legends, consisting of the Legend of Don Roderick, the Legend of the Subjugation of Spain, the Legend of Count Julian and his family, formed No. 3 of the Crayon Miscellany. They have been so long out of print, that, to the present generation of readers, they will probably be no less novel than the Chronicles which follow them, and which receive publicity for the first time.’ ” This Manuscript, together with the one immediately preceding it, were given by Irving himself to this friend, Mr. Adoniram Chandler, a printer and prominent man in New York at that time, and have remained in the possession of Mr. Chandler and his descendants until the present time.

AN UNUSUALLY INTERESTING AND CHARACTERISTIC LETTER, in which Dr. Johnson reveals his lovable personality in a most agreeable light. It shows that he has written Mrs. Thrale on the 6th, on the oth, and again on the 11th (this letter). He writes of a legacy of £14,000 which Mrs. Thrale has just had. He speculates at length as to what he would do “had he money enough.” “I might go to Cairo and down the Red Sea to Bengal, and take a ramble in India. . . . Half fourteen thousand would send me out to see other forms of existence and bring me back to describe them. 382. Jovius (PAuLus). Vita Sfortiae Clariss.

FINE Copy oF THis EXTREMELY RARE WORK. This edition of L’Imitation is specially desired because of the engravings. The vignette shows a view of the chapel at Versailles; the plate “Audi, Filia,” is supposed to represent Madame de Maintenon, and the reference to her here made by the Abbé de Choisy was so offensive to the Court that he was obliged to suppress the plate and substitute one of a different design; the plate following title shows Louis XIV in a chariot drawn by lions, being crowned with laurel by the angelic driver; the other plates are of ordinary religious subjects.

HT As is well known, Kipling is withal a hermit in his characteristics. Few people can claim him as a friend, and autograph collectors have found him the hardest of i living celebrities to succumb to their wiles. In 1903, the former owner of this set prevailed upon Mr. Kipling to inscribe the books. He did this in the 20 volumes then issued, SIGNING His NAME IN FULL ON THE TITLE-PAGES. In addition, he also penned the following verses in Vol. I,— “The rose that glimmers by the garden walk Hath cheered awhile our wine-cup and our talk! Then why the deuce need you castigate[?] Her petals, and cut slivers from her stalk? “Soapsuds or bones or cow dung, was it bred Her imbricated bud’s insistent head? i Seek not, O stranger, to participate— | Suffice it she was born and she is read!” | And also on the fly-leaf of Vol. 19 he has written: “Jubal sang of the wrath of God i And the curse of thistle and thorn— | But Tubal got him a pointed rod | And scrabbled the earth for corn. \ “Wherefor old as that first turned mould— } Young as the sprouting grain— Yearly green is the strip between Jubal and Tubal Cain. “Rudyard Kipling.’ | And on the fly-leaf of Vol. 20 he has written:— “The cure for this ill is not to sit still— Or frowst with a book by the fire: But to take a large hoe | | And a shovel also, | And dig till you gently perspire. “And then you will find That the Sun and the Wind And the Djinn of the Garden, too, | Will lift the hump— \ Cameeleon’s hump— | The humps that ts black and blue. “Rudyard Kipling.” [Continued Under the Management of the American Art Association Kindly read the Conditions of Sale Printed in forepart of this catalogue [No. 388. Kiptinc (RupyARD).—Continued | Since 1903, when Mr. Kipling autogiaphed the above, he has published uniform with this set, 8 more volumes, each of which now has inserted an AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED. No. 1, undated, to Mr. McClure, his publisher, reads in part,—“Your demands is scand'lus, an’ your language awful. I’ve been out of town now or I would have written ere this. I'll see what I can do about that yarn you want . . . send the billowy Britisher to me when he comes and come thou also thyself.” No. 2, to Mr. Ellsworth of “The Century,” mentions Strang’s portrait of himself, and wants to know when his Captains Courageous is coming out, the dedication to Dr, James Conland of Brattleboro, Vt., tells of doing some verse, two tales he is working on, etc. No. 3, to Mr. Gilder of “The Century,” October 17, 1899, mentions “a little bit of a war” (in South Africa), advises him to read Fitzpatrick’s “The Transvaal from Within,” etc. No. 4, to Mr. McClure, refers to the tandem bicycle he wishes, “whence af I do not break my neck in the learning,” etc. No. 5, to Mr, Gilder, reading, “It isn’t a novel or a novelette nor yet a poem, but if I do goto India this fall, a set of letters of Voyage,” etc. This letter is dated May 7, 1805. No. 6, to Mr. McClure, about the bicycle, “the pride of my heart and the envy of the beholder. You should see me gallivanting through Brighton. . . . The wife is immensely pleased with hers,” etc. No. 7, to Mr. McClure, “I can’t tell how we shall rejoice in the chainless. I've tried one already and the relief from the slash and lash of the chain was delightful.” No. 8, to Mr. Gilder, dated from “11 E. 32d Street, New York,” elucidates the words “patteran and Delhi Ko dour.” “I shall have a shy at the same in verse of a different metre at the head of the poem I think. Anyway, no prose if I can avoid it.” THis HANDSOMELY PRINTED EDITION OF THE WORKS OF MR.

Guigard, in his Nouvel Armorial du Bibliophile, says of this Catalogue,—*The Edi ion, remarkable for its typographic execution, consisted of only fifteen examples in all, printed upon papier de coton manufactured for this special purpose at Angouléme.” The Library here catalogued was begun by Guillaume de La Moignon, first Presi- dent of the Parlement of Paris, who died in 1677, was increased by his son, Chrétien- Francois de La Moignon, marquis de Basville, and other descendants, and on coming into the possession of Chrétien-Francois the second, was further augmented by that of his father-in-law, Nicolas-René Berryer. When the two parts were assembled, M. de La Moignon ordered the compilation of the above Catalogue, which was made under the direction of M. L.-F. de La Tour. It is possible that the present volume may have been M. de La Moignon’s own copy, as it bears the stamp of a crowned “L” on page 3, which is evidently not that of the later owner, Lord Leigh.

UNusuALLY LONG AND INTERESTING LETTER WRITTEN BY LINCOLN AT THE Time WHEN He Was BECOMING KNOWN THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY BECAUSE or His OPPOSITION TO THE EXTENSION OF SLAVERY IN THE NEWLY ADMITTED TERRITORIES, AND CONTAINING OVER 250 WorDS IN His AUTOGRAPH, Lincoln was at this time practicing law in Springfield, and this letter, and the two following items, relate to a Case which he was representing. The letter begins, “Vour letter of the 20th reached me day-before-yesterday—I had, the day before, written to Adams {his client] to be on hand with his witnesses—but, at the request of Judge Logan [Stephen T. Logan, Lincoln’s former law partner], who is Kemper’s attorney, I pul in a Postscript, saying to Adams, if he was agreed, the cause should be continued over the summer term. On subsequent reflection, I vather wish Adams may not agree— I have the case fresh in my mind, and therefore wish to keep it going till it is finished. . . . [Gives an outline of the proceedings to date, his plans in regard to future moves, and closes with,—] I should be glad to see you & shake you by the hand; but as there is no contested jury question, I scarcely think you need be at the trouble & expense of coming. All the law questions which can arise at the term, the Judge has already decided. Very truly yours, A. Lincoln.” 408. Lincotn (ABRAHAM—President of the United States.)

VeRY FINE Lone Letrer, CONTAINING OVER 175 Worps, AND Most CHARAC- TERISTIC OF LINCOLN, SHOWING His FAIRNESS IN DEALING WITH THOSE OPPOSED TO Him IN LEGAL Cases. The letter, which refers to the same case as the preceding item, and is addressed to the same person, is concerned with the sending of Com- missioner’s Certificates for the taking of depositions of witnesses by Mr. Turner. After stating the reasons for the form used, and directions for the method, he says, in regard to his former partner, Judge Logan, who is representing the opposite side in the case,— “When I served notice on Logan I promised him that if he would name any attorney in the vicinity whom he would wish to be present at the taking of the depositions, I would request you to notify him of the time and place, but he is gone off to ihe ‘World’s Fair’ without having named any. You will perceive Logan filed cross-interrogations; and which I hope may be as fully and fairly answered as our own. on 0 WG aby your friend, A, Lincoln.

EXCEEDINGLY INTERESTING AND UNUSUALLY LONG LETTER ENTIRELY IN LIN- COLN’s AUTOGRAPH, CONTAINING MorE THAN 350 Worps. The letter relates to the same legal case as the two preceding items, and is addressed to the same person, and reads in part,— “Your letter and the depositions both reached here yesterday; and, by agreement, Logan and I have opened the depositions and read them. By my agreement with Logan, made when I filed the Bill last summer, he has the option to continue the cause over this ensuing term, and he now elects to do so. This dispenses with your coming now, even if you should attend the trial when it does come off, which I think you need not do at any sacrifice. The depositions, in the main, are very good, yet there are two or three points, which I will mention, that I would prefer to have differently. . . . [Outlines several queries and asks for enlightenment on some doubtful passages, SHOWING How CAREFULLY He Stupiep His CAszs, and continues,—] I have the right, at the term, of amending the Bill, without excluding the evidence already taken, and consequently I must be informed at once, whether Adams was with Bradshaw when he took the Deed from Denny. ... [Adds that this Denny and another person interested are now dead, and closes with,—] I now wish we had proved the fact [of their death] as an excuse for noi making them witnesses. Yours truly, A.

Nothing would be more grateful to my feelings than to contribute if I could by my presence, or otherwise to that eminently patriotic object. Nevertheless, the now early meeting of Congress, together with a temporary illness, render my attendance impossible. “Vou purpose also to celebrate our Western victories, Freed from apprehension of wounding the just sensibilities of brave soldiers fighting elsewhere, it would be exceedingly agreeable to me to join in a suitable acknowledgement to those of the Great West, with whom I was born and have passed my life. And it is exceedingly gratifying that a portion lately of the Army of the Potomac, bul now serving with the great Army of the West, have borne so conspicuous a part in the late brilliant triumphs in Georgia. “Honor to the Soldier and Sailor everywhere, who bravely bears his country’s cause. Honor also to the citizen who cares for his brother in the field, and serves as he best can, the same cause.

IMPORTANT HISTORICAL DOCUMENT ISSUED BY THE GOVERNOR OF ALABAMA, AND THE “KEY-NOTE” TO THE SECESSION MOVEMENT Moore (A. B.—Governor of Alabama, 1860). Document Signed trp. folio, Executive Department, Montgomery, Ala., Noy. 28th, 1860. Appointing Hon. J. W. Garrott a Commissioner to the Governor and Legislature of North Carolina, to consult on the steps to be taken by the Slaveholding States for their mutual protection against the recently elected Republican Government at Washington. Docketed on back,—“Commissions of Messrs Snuith & Garrott from Ala. to N. C.” With seal attached. : [See Reproduction of Autograph] THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENT OF WHAT WAS PROBABLY THE FIRST OFFICIAL MOVE ON THE PART OF THE SOUTHERN STATES AFTER LINCOLN’S ELECTION TOWARDS CONCERTED ACTION FOR SECESSION. A Most Important DOCUMENT OF THE Civit WAR PERIOD. Although Secession had been talked of, and indeed strongly advocated by many Southerners before the Nominations for President the preceding summer, it was not until after Lincoln’s election that the idea began to take concrete form, and this document written just two weeks after the results of the election were known, shows that there was no time wasted before the initial steps were taken by the seceding states. The Document begins,— : “Whereas the election of Abraham Lincoln, a Black Republican, to the Presidency of the United States, by a purely sectional vole, and by a party whose leading and publicly avowed project is the destruction of the institution of slavery as it exists in the slaveholding states; And whereas the success of the said party and the power which il now has, and soon will acquire, greatly endanger the peace, interests, security and honor of the slaveholding states, and makes it necessary that prompt and effective measures should be adopted to avoid the evil which must result from a Republican Administration of the Federal Government; And as the interests and destiny of the slaveholding states are the same, they must naturally sympathise with each other, they, therefore, so far as may be practicable, should consult and advise together as to what is best to be done to protect their mutual interests and honor. . . .” To this end the Governor appoints the Hon. J. W. Garrott as Commissioner to confer with the Governor and Legislature of North Carolina and report the result in time for the meeting of the Alabama Convention in January following. The docketing on back would indicate that there was another person appointed at the same time, perhaps to visit some other state on the same mission.

Wittenberg and Nurnberg, 1531-1550 A Most VALUABLE AND INTERESTING SET IN THE FINEST POSSIBLE CONDITION. Luther’s Tracts are exceedingly rare in any case, and when found are almost in- variably so soiled, torn and worm-eaten as to be useless and undesirable. These copies are absolutely clean and perfect, each sermon being the First Issue. These Sermons, or Tracts, were all published during the period of Luther’s trans- lation of the Bible into New High German and at the time his famous “Tischeden” (Table-Talk, 1538) was given to the world. It is impossible to view these memorials of the actual life and work of the great leader of the Reformation in Germany, without a feeling of respect akin toawe. The fierce invective and coarse vituperation for which his controversial writings have been censured, are palliated by the consid- eration that such was the almost universal custom of that age. If his opposition was violent, it was not malignant or unforgiving. When his bitterest enemy, Tetzel, was in misfortune and disgrace, forsaken by all his friends, Luther extended to him help and consolation. Carlyle says of Luther: “No more valiant man ever lived in that Teutonic kindred whose character is valour;” and alluding to his fondness for music, he adds: “Death- defiance on the one hand, and such love of music on the other—between these two all great things had room.” BAKER-KENNEDY-DoOYLE AND OTHER COLLECTIONS Second Session, Wednesday Afternoon, January 31st 424.

Manuscript. Coptic Manuscript. VIII-IX Century A.D. Eleven leaves, 4to, evidently at one time a portion of an old tome, covered with MS. in Coptic script written in black with chapter headings in red and large capitals. Excavated at Edfu, Upper Egypt. Height, 104 inches; width, 7 inches. In “The Light of Egypt,” London, 1909, by de Rustafjaell, an interesting account is given of the finding in the ruins at Edfu, Upper Egypt. of some six manuscripts of, or relating to, the apocryphal books of the Bible, ad varium, and much not included in the published versions. The bulk of these went eventually into the British Mu- seum, but eleven separate leaves he retained in his own collection, which are here catalogued, as well as one leaf of smaller dimensions. VERY EARLY KUFIC MANUSCRIPT 427. Manuscript. LEAF or Hoty Koran. Kufic Manuscript, VIJ-VIII Century. Specimen of Kufic Calligraphy, written on parchment, in black with gold and red enamel decorations. Framed. Height, 9 inches; width, 111% inches. Kufic is specifically the alphabet of the Arabic used in the time of Mohammed, and in which the Koran was originally written. The development of the Kufic character began between the years A.D. 640 and A.D. 1245. It gradually fell into disuse for ordinary purposes, and was retained only for inscriptions, coins, etc. The Palaeographic Society, “Facsimiles of Manuscripts and Inscriptions,” Oriental Series, London, 1875-1883, shows a reproduction of a similar page of Kufic manu- script, so similar as to almost confirm the belief that it was written by the same scribe, but with the distinction that the diacritical points are, in that instance, small double dashes (’’) instead of well formed round dots, and it apparently has no square gold blocks dividing the paragraphs as in this instance. There is good reason to believe that this page of manuscript is one of the half dozen missing leaves from the famous Codex in the Bibliothéque Nationale, Paris, the oldest copy of the Koran extant.

Fourteenth Century | | An IMPORTANT AND FINE CHIVALRY MANuSCRIPT. It is very seldom that we find HH Manuscripts of such early Romances as “The Gesta Alexandri Magni” or “The Story of Prester John.” The three works comprising this manuscript are the work of the celebrated Italian Writer and Jurist, Albertano of Brixiensis and they were written sometime between 1235-1246. i EARLY 14TH CENTURY MANUSCRIPT 429.

Manuscript probably of English or Anglo-Norman workmanship, Fourteenth Century. Written in clear Gothic characters in black and red, in two columns, on 70 leaves of vellum, 1134 by 334 inches. Large initial letter at beginning of text in red and blue with elaborate pen-work decoration and filling in red, blue and green, extended into feathery border designs at top and inner margins; Hi] other capitals in red or blue with colored pen-work ornamentation extended into marginal decorations. Small folio, full modern pigskin, blind tooled, lettered on front cover and back. Fourteenth Century i VeRY DESIRABLE EARLY MANUSCRIPT ON VELLUM, ALMOST CONTEMPORARY WITH POPE Bonirace VIII. The use of the green inks in the decorations would indicate an English origin, as this color was very little used on the continent, and the style of the initial letters and decorations would seem to place the manuscript rather earlier than the date on the binding “Circa 1400.” The lettered title on cover and notes in the volume call for Pope Clement V’s Constitutiones as well as the Decretals, but the Constitutiones is not included in the Manuscript. The colophon, on last page, reads,— Datu rome apd sanctum petru quinto nonas marcij. pontifica- | rus bonifacij Anno quarto. Amen.” This date (1298) probably refers to the date of the issuance of the Decretals, and not to the writing of the Manuscript. | | EARLY 14TH CENTURY MANUSCRIPT CSTTE.

This inscription enables the date of the manuscript to be settled within a year or two, since it must be after April, 1465, a date found in the book, and before September, 1471. On the last written leaf of the volume is the inscription, twice over: “Liber iste est fratum Sanctorum Nicolai et angeli de vilanova ordinis montis Oliveti et diocesis Laudensis.” 434.

Scriptus per me fratem Guillermum de Cruce professum ejusdem domus 1468.” The Carthusian monastery of Montelli in the diocese of Tre- viso was founded in 1353. On the last leaf are added a story of St. Hugh of Grenoble headed, “De vero judicio judicando,” and another, “Nota pulcrum exemplum de quodam pagando” from the “Thesaurus Pauperum,” and lastly the interpretation of the text in Matthew, XXVI (verse 52): “All they that take the sword shall perish with the sword,” by Alanus of Lille.

According to an English description of the Manuscript, which is included in the volume, this Manuscript, lacking only the first page which was lost, was to accompany a book containing the religious rites and ceremonies of the Mohammedan religion which the Shah had placed in a public building in Isphahan as a Memorial to himself. The Manuscript contains a notice regarding the preservation of this book, and states that by the Shah’s order, Mohammed Barkeh Minshee (?) wrote the Manuscript in Praise of God, invoking the Prophets and commemorating the King, in the year 1118 of the Hegira. ‘ In addition to the Persian Manuscript, the volume contains two additional leaves of smaller size with descriptive account in Arabic (?), the English description, and an Autograph Letter Signed by Jafer Ali, 3pp. 12mo, February 4th, 1803, to Samuel Young, Esq. presenting the Manuscript to Mr. Young and giving some details concerning it.

ONE oF THE Most ATTRACTIVE COLLECTIONS OF AUTOGRAPH LETTERS OF THIS Famous ARTIST EVER BROUGHT TOGETHER, and most interesting, as having been written during the period immediately after the death of his wife, 1863 to 1869. The following extracts from some of the letters will show the interesting material contained in them,— (No. 7) “. . . I am going to Paris at the end of this week if funds serve... 1 may, if I can find time before leaving, be going one evening to Astly’s with Sandys. If a place was taken for you with us, could you come? .. .” (No. 15) “. . . I saw your blue china (though not you) the other evening. That dragon botile is the gem of your collection and a veal stunner. Also the little polygonal bowl is a beauty .. .” (No. 18) “The name of the sad undertaker in question is Neill, and his dark abode is in Eccleston Street South . . . where he dwells amid shattered hopes and pots, in the shadow as it were of the weeping willow pattern ...” This playful letter probably refers to an accident happening to a valued piece of china, which the “undertaker” Neill was to repair. The note is surrounded by a black border done by the artist in writing ink as a token of mourning for the broken piece. (No. 21) “. . . As to the drawing, I must tell you one thing about it, it is painted in body colour over a photograph from the picture. I do not mistrust it myself on that account, as I possess a similar thing by Seddon, now ro years old, which is as good as the first day . . .” He also speaks of the low prices brought by his and other artists’ work at the Plint sale. Mr. Plint was a patron of Rossetti, and the artist felt his death very keenly. (No. 32) “I am decidedly desirous that none of my work should appear in any exhibition of any kind, unvil such time as, afer many years absiinence, I make some start in an important way . . . It is particularly 10 my interest thal, while I abstain from sending to the Academy, I should not appear to avail myself of. minor oppor- tunities, as though I misirusted my chance in the best quarter. I regret io express a wish which may be opposed to yours but am obliged to do so by the plan of action I have laid down for myself .. .” oh NO on [Contin ued BaKkER-KENNEDY-DOYLE AND OTHER COLLECTIONS ill : 6 ; = ee 4 0 : | Third Session, Wednesday Evening, January 31st i | | No. 525.

I set great store by my independence of action as regards my works, and to have settled FOR ME what I am to do is completely destructive of allmy plans . . . To have broken through a plan adopted for years on so slight an occasion . . . is more contrary to my most serious wishes . . . than anything else that could possibly have happened to me.” (No. 37) “IZ certainly thought that after what had passed between us, the pictures i | should not have been hung . . . The matter is unlucky, and if my letter yesterday was somewhat hotheaded, as I believe it was, I can only fall back on my belief that the cause for it ought not to have occurred . . .” , il | (No. 54) “. . .

And can’t we get one up?” This note is in regard to his Summons as a petty-juryman, from which he seeks ex- i emption; letters 58 and 59 refer to the same matter, one of them enclosing a medical Certificate regarding the state of Rossetti’s eyes, and copies of the Legal papers in the matter are also included in this collection. i! | (No. 64) “I am very sorry to have missed your and Whistler’s visit yesterday even- | ing... I should be particularly obliged for the loan of that pen-and-ink drawing of q mine of Sir Lancelot in Queen Guinevere’s Chamber, the worst of it is, I need it before i tomorrow (Saturday) afternoon .. .” \ It must not be thought that the foregoing extracts exhaust the interesting points i presented in these one hundred and fifty pages of correspondence, as there are em- | bodied many other personal touches illustrative of Rossetti’s life, character and H\} genius; mention of Whistler and other friends, and many references to his own work. Other letters contain matter relating to the financial blow he received by the death | | of Mr. Plint, one of his chief patrons; the difficulties he met with in converting a stable on his premises into a studio, and troubles over his lease. (Nos. 32, 36 and 37.) | His letters relating to the exhibition of his pictures at the Arundel Club are highly | interesting, as they very emphatically contradict the statement made by Mr. Joseph i | Knight in his “Life of Rossetti,” pp. 97-098, that “In connection with his membership i | of the Arundel Club . . . was an exhibition of pictures by members of the club, to | which Rossetti sent several important works. No catalogue of this exhibition is i)! | preserved . . . Rossetti also exhibited some paintings at the Hogarth Club. Nor were these the only exhibitions to which he sent paintings or drawings.” 526.
