Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Adelaide, E.S. Wigg & Son, 1887 [this Adelaide edition is the first edition]. Octavo, xxii (last blank), 301, [2] (blank, colophon) pages plus a Woodburytype portrait frontispiece of Bishop Short (image size 145 × 98 mm, mounted on card printed with his facsimile signature). Gilt-pictorial brown cloth a little flecked, rubbed, and bumped; trifling signs of use and age; overall, an excellent copy. A London edition of this book was published in 1888, with pages ix-304 (from the table of contents onwards) being the sheets of this Adelaide edition. The first eight pages, the cloth colour, lettering and decoration differ, and it invariably contains the Woodburytype frontispiece portrait. The Woodburytype is derived from the original albumen silver photograph occasionally (but not invariably) found as the frontispiece in the Adelaide edition. Ferguson 18499 (not noting the last point).…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. London, Wells, Gardner, Darton & Co., 1888/ 1887 (first edition, published in Adelaide). Octavo, xxii, 301, [3] (blank, colophon, blank), 40 (publisher's catalogue) pages plus a Woodburytype portrait frontispiece (120 × 95 mm) and an errata slip after page xiv (not found in the Adelaide edition). Gilt-decorated cloth slightly rubbed; small paper label at the foot of the spine (see below); edges and leaves adjacent to the boards a little foxed; overall, an excellent copy. Pages ix-304 (from the table of contents onwards) are the sheets of the 1887 Adelaide edition. The first eight pages, the cloth colour, lettering and decoration for this London edition differ, and it invariably contains the Woodburytype frontispiece portrait. The Woodburytype is derived from the original albumen paper photograph occasionally (but not invariably) found as the frontispiece in the Adelaide edition. Ferguson 18499 (not noting the last point). Provenance: Sir Henry Parkes (1815-1896), NSW politician and journalist, with a commemorative bookplate on the front pastedown ('This book was one of a Collection associated with the name of Sir Henry Parkes, and housed in the Chief Secretary's Department of New south Wales until 1956'). The inkstamp of the Colonial Secretary's Office is on the verso of the frontispiece and at the end of the author's preface; the inkstamp of the Colonial Secretary's Office Library is on the title-page (and explains the small label on the spine).…

Both items in good condition, on lightly-aged paper. According to Short's entry in the Oxford DNB, he 'had many friends among the Tractarians, and wrote (but did not publish) a defence of Tract 90, though he voted for the condemnation of W. G. Ward's Ideal of a Christian Church in 1845. In 1846 he delivered at Oxford the Bampton lectures entitled The Witness of the Spirit with our Spirit'. ONE: 'Tuesday | June 4'. 3pp., 12mo. He begins by stating that he is enclosing the 'Extracts from the Tracts', together with Harington's 'paper of observations'. He continues: 'Newman directed my attention on the subject of Invocations & Paryers for the dead to Tracts 71 & 72. These he said would furnish a "MacMandate" against any supposed to in Tract 75. It is certainly but fair that those who undertake to criticize their expressions should examine the whole body of their teaching which appears to be carried on systematically and so we must read all the Tracts I suppose . . The world will not certainly and I fear not even that part of it which calls itself religious.' He gives details of two books which he has bought and ends with a comment concerning 'Hume of '. TWO: 'Wednesday. Mh. 13.' 3pp., 12mo. Presumably referring to the Bishop of Oxford, he writes that he has read Harington's 'letters to the Bishop with the attention the subject deserves. They remind me of a game of billiards where one player so places the balls that the adversary must almost inevitably pocket himself off the red and so lose the game. The Bishop however did not pocket himself but made a push for another part of the table.' The matter in question should be decided by a 'national Synod'. He agrees with the Bishop 'that practically we should lay as few obstacles as we can in the way of a returning Schismatic'. He end with reference to 'the New Poor Law' and 'the comparative comfort of the Agricultural Labourer'. From the Harington family papers.…
