In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fair. First Edition. "The late Mr. John Comber, of Ashenhurst, Guildford, devoted a large portion of his leisure to compiling pedigrees of Sussex families. It was his life's hobby. He commenced by finding out all there was to be known of the Combers. This led to researches i…nto allied families, and during the investigations he kept notes of all the Sussex names he came across. Mr. Comber's knowledge of the county, his skill in genealogical research, his infinite patience and diligence are apparent in all his work. He never put down a fact that he had not verified to his satisfaction." - dust jacket and Preface. vi, 406 p. Index of names. Average wear to original black cloth brightly lettered in gilt. Prior owner's bookplate inside front board, otherwise minimal markings. Binding intact with a slight lean. Heavy wear to clipped dust jacket which has some writing on the front and is now in glossy new archival-grade protection. A sound example of this invaluable genealogical reference. ; 8vo.

In den Warenkorb1p., 12mo. Cheaply printed in small print. A frail survival: aged and worn. In the 1885 General Election Brown was soundly defeated in the North Down constituency by the Conservative candidate Thomas Waring. The present item is headed 'The Burial of the Radical Cause in the Glassmoss. (By Robert Todd, Comber.)' The poem is 32 li…nes long, divided into eight four-line stanzas. A clumsy parody of Charles Wolfe's 'The Burial of Sir John Moore after Corunna', it begins: 'Not a prayer was heard, nor a funeral note, | As his corse to the Glassmoss we hurried, | Not a Liberal discharged his farewell shot | Where the Radical done Brown lay buried. | We buried him hastily on Tuesday night; | The sods with our hackle-pins turning, | By the struggling Glassmoss cottage light; | And Conservatives [sic] bonfires burning. | No useless coffin enclosed his breast, | In a newspaper shroud we wound him, | On a Northern Whig [newspaper] we laid him to rest, | With United Ireland [another newspaper] wrapt round him.' The poem is followed by a six-line prose 'VERDICT' by 'M'Cullough's Mule, Coroner, Glassmoss.', beginning: 'Died, a natural death from speedy mortification, on Tuesday, 1st December, 1885, after a protracted struggle for a precarious existence in the unpropitious climate of North Down.' The deceased is said to be 'the victim of a policiy as vacillating and unstable as the Glassmoss sand to which he is consigned without hope of resurrection'. The final feature of the page is the following 'EPITAPH': ''Neath Glassmoss sand, | Not far from land, | In far famed County Down, | His body lies, | No more to rise, | Because it was done Brown.' Excessively scarce: no copies in the National LIbrary of Ireland, British Library, or on COPAC or OCLC WorldCat. See Image.
