Williams Thomas S.
Autograph Letter Signed Hartford Connecticut March 17 1842 to Lewis J. Cist Cincinnati Ohio
<p>quarto 2 pages plus stamp-less address leaf in very good clean and legible condition.</p><p> Congressman Thomas Williams having received Cist's letter needed some time to "examine my files of letters and see whether I could with propriety send you any from persons whom you designated. I find very few indeed none of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence or Constitution of the US except those of Col. Williams who was a very old man when he wrote me and whose letters are so connected with domestic subjects as to render it improper in my opinion for me to place them in a public position. I have however found a few letters from Gentlemen who have occupied high stations and whose characters are doubtless known to you Mess. Goodrich Daggett Sumner Goddard & Gould the first of whom have been Lt. Gov. and sat together with the two next Senator in the US Senate and all the others have been Judges of our Supreme Court. Mr. Goddard and Timothy Pitkin have also been members of the House of Reps. The two last however with Judge Daggett are still living which made me hesitate somewhat about sending their letters but their content were of that character I thought that there could be no objection – you will I trust advert to that circumstance in any use you may make of them. I hope to find a letter from the first Governor Trumbull who was our … during the War of the Revolution …"</p><p> Cincinnati poet and composer Lewis J. Cist grandson of a Russian immigrant who became a wealthy Philadelphia printer and publisher was not the first great American autograph collector but the collection he "energetically" assembled by writing letters to famous men was one of the finest of the mid-19th century – and probably the largest. When it was dispersed at auction in New York in 1886 a year after Cist's death the catalogue of 909 printed pages listed 11890 lots notably a will signed by Button Gwinett the rarest of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence and a copy of the Star-Spangled Banner handwritten for Cist by Francis Scott Key.</p> Cist's correspondents besides Key included Andrew Jackson Edgar Allen Poe but also included many lesser figures – like Thomas Scott Williams US Congressman Mayor of Hartford and Chief Justice of the Connecticut Supreme Court who was married to the daughter of Oliver Ellsworth a drafter of the US Constitution and the third Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court. books

One of several English dictionaries published in the early nineteenth century Williams' dictionary is notable for its physical size and broad scope. Williams noted that his aim was to include more words and shorter definitions by omitting the extraneous detail that distinguished the work of his predecessors and presumably his competitors. Williams 1763-1833 was a barrister of the Inner Temple and was called to the bar but he didn't have success as a pleader. He was known instead for his writings. In addition to his dictionary he wrote manuals justices of the peace compiled abridgments and digests and edited an edition of William Sheppard's The Precedent of Precedents. 1. unknown books

United States Guide Book for Travellers
New York: D.Appleton & Company 1854. A puzzling and interesting book. Original red cloth gilt with obvious removal by us of grey duct tape at bottom of spine. Another dealer has written on a preliminary that the book has "20 maps some folding". We have counted 24 with some folding and because there is a supplement bound in referring to the south and the west there are four more maps with 3 additional folding ones. A few of the maps folding have been opened roughly but are securely bound in and no pieces are missing. The supplement does not have an index of its maps but we believe that we have them all. There are charming small cuts picturing views of important sites about which the book speaks. The book has a mylar jacket and is a treasure for anyone interested in the U.S. in thepre-civil war era. In addition to paginations of 303 and 140 there are 4 pps of advertisements the last page of which has a small damp stain on its foredge. We have not seen another copy of this travel guide with the supplement included. New and Revised Edition. Cloth. Poor/No DJ. 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall. Travel Guide.
