In den WarenkorbThis document, signed by George IV as Prince Regent, and by the former Prime Minister Lord Sidmouth as Home Secretary, relates to Matthias Maher (1798-1865), a Royal Navy officer who was twice tried at the Old Bailey on a charge of forgery. On the first occasion, 6 May 1818, he was found not guilty by reason of insanity; and rem…oved to the criminal asylum in St George's Fields. Maher was found sound of mind as the present document reveals by Sir George Leman Tuthill (17721835) and Edward Wright (c.1788-1859), the latter to die of disgrace in Australia. He was tried a second time on 15 September 1819, when he was convicted and sentenced to death. The sentence was commuted to transportation for life, and he left England on the Earl St Vincent on 12 April 1820, arriving in Australia on 16 August 1820. In Australia Mathias served as a Constable in D'Arcy Wentworth's police force at Parroquet Hill, helping to suppress the Parramatta bushrangers. 2pp, foolscap 8vo. Bifolium. In fair condition, lightly aged and worn. Folded twice. Good firm signature of the Prince Regent at head of first page: 'George P R.' Above this, in a small hand: 'In the Name and on the Behalf of His Majesty.' Royal Seal under paper in left-hand margin of first page. Signed at end of document by the former Prime Minister Lord Sidmouth, now Home Secretary: 'Sidmouth'. Beneath this, at the foot of the second page: 'Receid 7 August 1819 the body of the abovenamed Matthias Maher | W. E. Hardy, for Mr Brown Keeper of Newgate'. (William Erasmus Hardy (c.1773-1838) was 'clerk of the papers in the gaol of Newgate'.) Forty-line document, in a secretarial hand, addressed 'To Our Trusty and Wellbeloved The Right Worshipful The Resident and Treasurer and the Worshipful The Governors of Bethlem Hospital.' The document begins: 'Whereas at a Sessions holden at the Old Bailey on the 6th day of May 1818 Matthias Maher stood Indicted for several Felonies and Forgeries, and upon [his] Arraignment thereon, was found by [a] Jury, lawfully Impannelled for the purpose to be Insane, so that he could not be tried upon the said Indictment, and was therefore [] ordered to be kept in strict Custody, in Our Gaol of Newgate until Our Pleasure should be known. []' The document states that on 14 May 1818 Maher was 'removed to the Building erected in St. George's Fields, in the County of Surrey, situate on the side of Bethlem Hospital, for the better Care and Custody of Insane Persons charged with or Convicted of Criminal Offences', and that 'George L. Tuthill Esqr, M.D. and Edward Wright Esqr M.D.' have now certified that 'Maher is become Sane'. At foot of first page and endorsed on reverse of second leaf: 'Warrant to remove Matthias Maher back to the Gaol of Newgate from the Criminal Lunatic Asylum in St. George's Fields.' From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library.

[Copy] N.[o. 191 in script] and signed on the title page by the author, "WAddington," and on page 191. Early owner's signature to foot of title, "W.C. Medlycott." Modern burgundy quarter simulated calf over contrasting tan cloth, gilt-lettered spine. Text block edges untrimmed; endpapers renewed. Minor staining to first two leaves with negligible loss to a few words on title page. Light internal toning and occasional foxing, but overall a very good, wide-margined copy. $650. * This expansive work is a definitive primary source for the social and judicial history of late 18th-century England. While labeled as the "Fourth Edition," it is bibliographically identified as the sixth-and most mature-iteration of Addington's personal commonplace book. Written by a veteran Bow Street Magistrate, the text maps the intricate web of the "Bloody Code," utilizing a rigorous tabular format to categorize nearly four thousand articles by offense, penalty, and the specific "Mode of Recovery" required for conviction. The Abridgment functions as a window into the era's social anxieties, meticulo.

A very good copy. $750. * Second edition. This copy links two notable English figures in law and politics. First published in 1775, Addington's reference went through nine editions, the final one in 1812. Its detailed descriptions of rogues, vagabonds, thieves, gambling, fraud, bawdy houses and other colorful topics offers fascinating insights into English social history during the later decades of the eighteenth century. According to the preface, it was based on the author's commonplace book. The recipient is almost certainly the politician and bibliophile Sir John Ingilby [1758-1815] of Ripley Castle, Yorkshire, who was created a Baronet in 1781. He was High Sheriff of Yorkshire from 1781-1782, a Member of the Parliament (for East Retford) from 1790-1796 and a Fellow of the Royal Society (elected 1793). This would have been a useful guidebook for his legal work. The donor, Sir Sampson Wright [d.1793] was a prominent British magistrate of the Bow Street Police Court. In the winter of 1782-83, he established the Bow St.
