Non posso a meno di ripetere / questo pensiero; ma più in là non vedo. L'amico vi dirà dell'Ufficiale che lo / veduto questa mattina. Appena io abbia notizie, le avviso. Se per / caso credete di determinarvi a fare, avvertite-/mi senza indugio. Darò allora i proclami e vi / vedrò subito. Il Governo ha evidentemente paura. E non / osa appigliarsi a misure anteriormente repres-/sive. V' è agitazione, come sapete, anche nel / macinato. Il Governo nondimeno presente il moto da / parte nostra. E questo potrebbe forse modificare / il disegno e dare più importanza alla mia / idea d'assalire le ali, procacciare armi e / portar poi le forze concentrate ed eccitate da / una vittoria sul centro. Ma di questo si / parlerebbe. Vostro tutto Gius M". - "As I have said since we have met for / the first time, I cannot deny that the thought / occurs to me often: ' If we see that / the rising of Piac. shows the opportunity for / the cities of Italy, why could the rising of / Genova not do the same thing?' I cannot stop to repeat / this thought; but I do not see any more in it. The friend will let you know from the Officer that I saw him / this morning. As soon as I have news, I will let you know. In / case you believe you will make up your mind to act, let me know / without delay. I will then give a proclamation and I will / see you immediately. Obviously, the Government is afraid. And it does not / dare to cling to measures which were repres-/sive before. There is agitation, as you know, even in / the crushed. Still, the Government presents the stimulus for / us. And this could maybe change / the plan and give more importance to my / idea of attacking the wings, procuring weapons and / then leading the concentrated and excited forces to / a victory over the centre. But we will talk / about this. Yours entirely Gius M".‎

‎McCONNAUGHEY George C. 1897 1966‎

‎Typed Letter Signed‎

‎This Ohio republican was named chairman of the powerful Federal Communications Commission by President in Eisenhower in 1954 but resigned in 1957 in the face of bribery charges involving the awarding of television channels in Miami and Pittsburgh. TLS 1p 6 3/4" X 9" Washington DC 1956 February 13. Addressed to Bruno J. Gianetti. Very good. Single 1" scotch tape stain not affecting text and mounting traces on verso. On Federal Communications Commission letterhead a fun letter to the parents of a boy named George: "By George I think you have a Capitol idea even though I make no claim to fame. If I can improve as much as your little George grows in stature by the time he is old enough to understand your book his name could be mor exemplary. At least you have furnished me with an additional incentive to not let George do it alone. I have a son named George too who is also working to add meaning to the name. Since I understand George whether large or small I know that your George will get my message because he is wired for sound too." Bold full signature in blue fountain pen. A gracious and thoughtful response; unfortunately despite his lofty language McConnaughey would be resigning under questionable circumstances about a year later. unknown‎

‎McCORMICK Robert S. 1849 1919‎

‎Autograph Fragment unsigned‎

‎Grandson of inventor Robert McCormick nephew of reaper inventor Cyrus Hall McCormick father of editors Joseph Medill McCormick and "Colonel" Robert R. McCormick -- this career diplomat joined the State Department in 1887 serving as U.S. ambassador to Austria-Hungary 1902 Russia 1902-05 and France 1905-07 although according to one journalist McCormick's "career as a dilettante diplomat took a backseat to his more serious pursuit of alcohol." Autograph Fragment unsigned on printed calling card heavy stock 3" X 1�" London England n.y. Near fine. Handsome italic "Mr. Robert McCormick" printed at center and beneath this McCormick has penned in brown ink in his small neat hand "Hotel Belgravia / Victoria Street S.W." Likely dates from early in his State Department career else a title such as "Ambassador" would have preceded his name. The card bears a heavy printed black border or "mourning rule" but since it's difficult to assign a date to this it's also difficult to determine what death in his family would have occasioned the mourning border. The Victoria Street area of southwest London is appropriate as it was chock full of foreign embassies and McCormick must have been on some State Department assignment there. Not signed alas but a most unusual item nevertheless. unknown‎
