In den WarenkorbSuch was his prominence in the abolitionist debate, that three years after the writing of this letter Cox's house and church would be sacked, and he himself would be burned in effigy, in the Anti-Abolitionist Riots of 1834, causing his removal from New York City. A history of Christ Church, Henley, states that the recipient of t…his letter Robert Bolton (1788-1857) 'brought his ministry to the Henley Chapel in 1824 [.] Bolton, from Savannah, Georgia, USA studied for the ministry under the senior William Jay, who was known as "the Divine of Bath" when he began preaching at the age of seventeen.' Bolton ended his ministry at Henley in 1836, and according to the Historical Society of New York, which possesses a portrait of him, in the same year he left England with his wife - William Jay's daughter Ann - and fourteen children. He was the founder of Christ Church, Pelham, New York. 4pp, 4to. Bifolium. In fair condition, on aged and worn paper, with hole in second leaf caused by breaking of wafer, with the piece of paper torn away to make the whole stuck onto the wafer. Eighty-five lines of closely-written text. Addressed (franked?) on reverse of second leaf, with postmark, to 'Rev. Robert Bolton. | Henley-upon-Thames. | Oxfordshire, | England.', with the following at bottom left: 'Favoured by | John B. Fleming Esqr.' A long and devout letter, written in an elevated style with biblical references and elaborate metaphors. Cox begins the letter by posing the question: 'Rev. & dear brother, | How stands the account of our correspondence?' He answers at length, asserting that 'it is long languished & in need of revival', with reference to Bolton's 'Christian & social Character', and the 'noble branchings & hearings to the glory of Xt:'.The third page of the letter begins: 'Oct. 3. I wrote the previous pages some 3 months since, expecting to send this by a brother who went without it to England. Since then I have travelled, rusticated, & [welcomed?] - without much to record worthy of your eye. The elements of conflict & revolution in Church & State seem fermenting with us'. In the passage that follows he likens the 'Spirit of the Lord' to a 'roaring lion "who knows that his time is short"'. He continues: '[Party sons?], heresy-hunters, alarmists, & high-church bigots, even in an Puritan Communion, are [sharing?] the infection of their fever through the body & the members [of it?]. This is Satan's [?] of the revivals, or his Compensation for them - especially when he subverts good men & infuriates them against each other.' He praises 'God [.] on his throne', before sending his 'Christian Salutations to Mrs. Bolton, & her venerable Father [William Jay] - from whom it would much please me to receive an answer a letter!' In a postscript he states that his wife 'unites in love to Mrs. B. & yourself. We have 8 children & one in the other world. This is at least half as many as you have! My oldest has been a member of the Church since April last, [.] We can scarce have too many if they all do their duty & serve God & their generation aright!'.

[i.e. the celebrated Daniel Webster (1782-1852)] - Were Mr. W. still among the living, there is no one whom he would sooner commend to your most favorable regard than the gentleman whom I now pray leave to present to you.' He continues: 'Charles P. Curtis Esqe. is one of the most distinguished members of our Bar, - a lawyer of long standing & large practice, who breaks away from his profession at engagements for a few months, to pay a first visit to the land, from which all our Laws, & many of our liberties, come. / No one is better acquainted than Mr. Curtis with our legal & judicial system, or with our Institutions generally; - & I may add that no one is better entitled, from his social as well as professional position, to the highest consideration at home or abroad.' He ends 'With cordial remembrances of your kindness to me in London.' See Image of Pp.2/3.

In den WarenkorbThe Earl of Darnley's four letters (all signed 'Darnley') total 27 pp in 12mo; Lady Darnley's eight letters (all signed 'H. Darnley') total 26 pp in 12mo. All items in good condition, on lightly-aged paper. Darnley's first letter, 16 September 1853 (12mo, 12 pp), is unusually blunt for the period, and revealing on the etiquette…of the period. It begins: 'I trust that the change in your mode of addressing me was accidental, and I have therefore not imitated it, and have used one word which you omitted [presumably 'Dear']. I have ascertained by a reference to my pigeonholes that I am not mistaken as to there being a change, and am therefore very anxious to have your assurance that it was not intentional.' The letter has resulted from an argument over the interpretation of an act of parliament, with Darnley accusing Shepherd of being 'the party who declined resisting the appeal made by the Cobham Vestry against the decision of the Magistrates': He reminds Shepherd that he 'copied out the clause verbatim, and distinctly specified the act, chapter, and section, and proceeded to demonstrate by the most simple and intelligible process of induction, that the spirit of the act of Parliament was not as Mr. Hayward interpreted it; and I added that the Lord Chancellor himself wd. never convince me to the contrary. [.] Had I not been writing to one whom I decided to be of a logical mind and a reasonable disposition, I should not have taken so much trouble to argue my case, and I can hardly suppose that you will content yourself with evading the question at issue, having neither impugned my premises nor in anywise disproved my conclusions.' He refers to 'two gentlemen influencing a Vestry to prevent [Darnley] having 130 yards of road widened' 'As I said before, at your house, I was not, at the time of the Vestry meeting, aware that you were the real prosecutor of the Cobham Surveyor [Shearman]; I thought it was all Mr. Barber's doing'. He considers that 'a prosecution apparently so vindictive, the retrospective and penal character of which indicated, - or rather I should say appeared to indicate, - rather a feeling of personal animosity to the Parish of Cobham than a desire to attain any beneficial object.' The other three letters from Darnley total 15 pages in 12mo. Two, from 1855, concern 'rates and valuations' set (illegally, in Darnley's view) by 'Mr. Barber'. The last item is undated; it acknowledges Shepherd's congratulations on the birth of one of the Darnleys' five daughters. None of Lady Darnley's letters is dated; one is in an envelope with a penny lilac stamp postmarked 1889. Shepherd was a noted naturalist, and her letters reflect a shared interest in natural history. Topics include: his gift of 'curious' orchises; 'Macmillan's book', with 'chapters on Trees and Stars', which she has found for Shepherd at Hatchard's; her gift of 'green winged orchises' ('I have found them in meadows in Suffolk in great numbers, & in various shades of colour - we also found Adder's tongue, and what we think to be Haut bois [sic] Strawberry'); his 'beautiful blue pimpernel'; 'Canon Colson's letter', the 'antiquarian part' of which will interest Shepherd, but which she does not want returned ('I don't think it is at all interesting to hear about bones.'); her son Lord Clifton's letter in the 'Field', 'about his golden Orchis and Hoopoe'. In one letter ('Cobham | Wednesday') she lists Shepherd's 'different visits' to the Darnleys: 'The first in 1879 - when you met my Father and we went to some wood expeditions | 1881 was the Yellowley time - | 1882 Miss Lee Warner | 1886 - you me the Hablers here - I should be so glad if you could come here every year as long as we are all alive! - I think a yearly visit is so satisfactory'. The Autograph Card Signed is in an envelope with Gravesend postmark of 1891. She thanks him for the botanical information ('Clifton was puzzled at first'), and is 'wickedly rejoicing' in his 'being beaten by Fusca'. Also present.

In den WarenkorbTotal 18pp., 8vo (letters), 3pp., 4to (lists), and one page 8vo (list). The dealers are giving advice and information to the collector, particularly relating to the Dawson Turner Sale (1859) and the Libri Sale (1859), often illegibly or nearly so. A. William Boone (4 June 1859) advises that a "holograph letter of Napoleon" will…attract interest enough to justify two guineas and would sell for more in Paris". He believes a volume "on Scottish affairs" would "realize fully" £420. (9 June 1859) He has assmued the Duke would be interested in a portrait of an ancestor which Boone has seen at Christie's and will send a copy of the catalogue. He "has not done all that he could have wished at Dawson Turner's Sale" but lists his purchases for the Duke (12 items, lot numbers, subject/person, prices). He adds information about other lots (Cromwell coming up the following day: Napoleon letter and another item sold to the British Museum for £215; Newton to Trinity, Cambridge for 89 gns; "2 volumes on Scotland £280. He comments on the prices ("unequal") and will send his purchases the following day. If the Duke wishes to return anything, he would be happy to take them himself. (11 June 1859) He regretfully says that he failed to buy the Cromwell letters. He had let one lot go in the hope of being more competitive on the second but he was competing with someone with "an unlimited commission" and felt the Duke would not want him to go further. He explains why the Milton MS could not have been autograph (blind in 1652), but identifies them as legal transfers of copyright, giving the price ("They sold at 40 gns. for a Commission from America"). (6 Aug. 1859) He criticizes the catalogue descriptions of the books at the Libri Sale (condition). He lists the items he has purchased and sent already. "All the Books in extraordinary condition sell exceedingly well, and for very many, the prices are considerably enhanced by the attendance of the principal Booksellers from Paris, for instance the Elzevir Cicero " (£61). He gives other examples, explaining why he was not himself confident enough to purchase "for a customer [the Duke] who is very desirous of purchasing really good specimens of [for?] his Library." He would welcome further commissions. (7 April 1859) He explains why he did not purchase a particular MS at the Libri Sale but suggests another purchase. His postscript gives information about the fate of another Libri lot. B. Thomas Boone (10 March 1862) He informs the Duke of his actions relating to an archive ("The Prince of Wales Collection of Papers") which he has submitted to the British Museum for authentication, giving Frederic Madden's view. He says the separate publication of a medical pamphlet is out of print but he will send another edition on approval. He lists the autographs which he has declined to buy for the Duke because "the prices have so far exceeded all precedent". He gives previous and current prices. (17 March [1862]) He encloses a list of autographs purchased by him for the Duke (present, one of the lists, 2pp.) and has marked the catalogue with relevant information (prices of major lots, items purchased by him). He shied away from items he was not sure were genuine or from competing when the prices went too high through "unlimited Commissions". In a postscript he points out that he has alternatives in stock for some of the marked items. The additional lists, 4to and 8vo, give information about runs, binding, "additions proposed" to the library at Clumber, and an "Additional Memorandum of Books to be completed". Note: 5th Duke of Newcastle's papers (Clumber Park) held by the University of Nottingham. DNB does not mention his collecting interests.
