‎Coat of Arms or Armorial Bearings for the Family of Prior with Motto: 'Malo Mori Quam Foedari'‎

‎Roding Essex: Prior c.1860 . 19th Century Victorian Hand Painted & Illuminated Coat of Arms or Armorial Bearings for the Family of Prior 'Malo Mori Quam Foedari' with a Detailed Hand Written History in England & Ireland Both sides Glazed. The picture is in excellent period condition and measures 28 cm by 22 cm Family history records show: Captain Thomas Prior married Hon. Elizabeth Fairfax daughter of Ferdinando Fairfax 2nd Lord Fairfax of Cameron and Lady Mary Sheffield. He died in 1690. He lived at Roding Essex England and then moved to Rathdowney County Laios Ireland. Prior Thomas 1681�1751 founder of the Dublin Society and philanthropist was born in Garrison House Rathdowney Queen's Co. Laois second son among five children of Col. Thomas Prior and his first wife whose name is unknown. According to unverified family history his father secretly married again after the death of his first wife this time to the good-looking daughter of a small farmer; they had two sons. His grandfather Thomas Prior an English captain came to Ireland in 1636 and under the act of settlement obtained 500 acres of land in Rathdowney. After a period of ill health Prior retired to his estate in Rathdowney during the summer of 1751 and he died 21 October 1751 aged 70. He was buried in the Rathdowney churchyard and his tombstone inscribed �Thomas Prior Esq. who spent a long life in unwearied endeavours to promote the welfare of his country� was later relocated inside the adjacent church. His exact place of burial is now unknown. In his will Prior disinherited his estranged two half-brothers and left his estate to his cousin John Murray Prior only son of his aunt Mary. In 1726 Prior�s uncle Richard died at Ely and by his will bequeath to his �loving nephew Thomas Prior� some 40 acres of land in the parish of Leverington in the isles of Ely and a leasehold estate in the town of Cambridge as well as the More-Houses. "Malo mori quam foedari" "I would rather die than be dishonored". ".This drawing of the crest is by T. L. Murray-Prior It appears that T. L. Murray-Prior had tried to find out what the Prior coat of arms were and got it slightly wrong. On 23 November 1885 he wrote about the crest in his Family Bible. Part of what he wrote is hard to read now but appears to describe his crest as he drew it: that the family arms are �Sa. on a bend arm three chevronels gn. between stars of eight point wavy�. Motto: Malo mori quam foedari. Seat: Rathdowney Queens County. This all was part of his determination to assert his family's gentry status and despite the family no longer owning Rathdowney. T. L. Murray-Prior achieved confirmation of his family's gentry status in October 1888 when as described in Burke's entry 'Prior of Netherfield' in his Landed Gentry book T.L. Murray-Prior 'obtained confirmation of Arms from the Ulster King of Arms 1888 - Quarterly 1 and 4 vert on a bend ermine three chevronels gules PRIOR; 2 and 3 per fess gules and or four mullets countercharged MURRAY.'." - See Wikipedia Murray-Prior [ Roding, Essex: Prior (c.1860) ] . unknown‎

‎[African Americana]: Shields, Art‎

‎The Killing of William Milton wrapper title‎

‎New York: The Daily Worker 1948. Near fine. 16pp. Illustrated. Original pictorial self wrappers stapled. Mild toning and light wear. A scarce account of the events surrounding the death of William Milton described as "a useful hard-working law-abiding citizen.a devoted husband and loving father.sympathetic to his neighbors' problems.what people call a good man" who was also "a Negro and so marked out for that special torture that American society visits upon men and women who are colored." On July 14 1948 Milton was killed by Brooklyn Patrolman Peter Kilcommons in the hallway of his own building. Milton and three friends ran from police after being thrown out of a Williamsburg bar by a racist bartender named Charles Kennefick who "didn't want Negroes around." Kilcommons chased Milton to his front door then shot him once in the back and twice in the chest in front of about ten witnesses including Milton's wife Irene and their son Eugene Milton. Eugene describes the incident in a heartbreaking passage: "I saw Daddy drop as the first bullet hit him. I saw Daddy drop and then stagger inside. Kilcommons and O'Neil were shooting at him as he went in." There are also further accounts of the shooting recorded here from young neighbors. The text also includes the measures sought by the Committee for Justice in the Milton Case. The Committee argued for the dismissal and indictment of Kilcommons and O'Neil the dismissal of Police Commissioner Wallander financial support for Irene Milton and for continued support of Milton's brother Joseph who was with William in the bar on the fateful night. Joseph was charged with felonious assault on the bartender Kennefick after William was killed likely as a cover for the police in William's killing. Shields argues a motive for the arrest and beating of Joseph Milton: "The cops were trying to make him confess that William and himself had started the fight. The cops thought that such a 'confession' would give them an 'out' for the killing."<br /> <br /> A possible motive for the killing of William Milton also emerged after his murder. Milton was a member of the Communist Party and a community activist in New York who was often critical of the police violence he encountered in the city. He would also bring copies of The Daily Worker to his neighbors and was instrumental in organizing a renter's strike in a nearby building. Milton was especially vocal in his criticism of police following the killing of two African-American men by a police officer named Joseph Romeika in Freeport Long Island. Four young African-American siblings named Ferguson - Charles Joseph Alonzo and Richard - three of whom were U.S. Army veterans were refused coffee by a white manager of a diner. After they vigorously protested the manager called the police on the brothers. They left but were soon confronted by Romeika a rookie police officer. Romeika lined the men up and after two of the brothers protested Romeika kicked them in the groin and shot them an eerily-similar situation to the one that eventually led to Milton's murder.<br /> <br /> The author of the present work Art Shields was a legendary labor journalist who had previously written about the Sacco & Vanzetti case and would spend his career on the side of unions and laborers notably miners. He was highly critical of police actions such as the one recorded here which he described "as brutal a homicide as if the cops had been working for Heinrich Himmler the Nazi Gestapo leader instead of for Police Commissioner Arthur Wallander of New York." The Introduction was written by Simon W. Gerson one of the foremost leaders of the Communist Party in the United States and editor of The Daily Worker who writes passionately about the murder of Milton: "Yes William Milton lived under Jim Crow right here in New York. In fact he died from Jim Crow. He was lynched my friends lynched. What matter is it if a man is lynched by a hempen rope from a Georgia cottonwood-tree or lynched by a police revolver in the trigger-happy hands of a Brooklyn cop" The penultimate page of the pamphlet contains a group photograph which includes Gerson along with a Brooklyn councilman Mrs. Joseph Milton Irene Milton and Eugene Milton "at Madison Sq. Garden Rally" presumably in support of the Committee for Justice in the Milton Case. An important story that still resonates today about police crimes against the African-American population.

‎An autograph letter signed by a British Army infantryman serving during the Crimean War‎

‎1856. Manuscript on paper. Single bifolium. With original stamped envelope. Old horizontal and vertical folds. Short tears at folds cross-written on terminal page. Envelope worn and soiled. An autograph letter in the hand of private Thomas Arms of the 12th Royal Lancers addressed to his sister written at Scutari Istanbul 17th January 1856 two months prior to the cessation of hostilities during the Crimean War. Arms references his participation in the Battle of Tchernaïa the fall of Sebastopol and the conditions he and his fellow soldiers had to endure: 'You wished for some small token from Sebastopol but I had nothing but a Russian musket and bayonet and those I sold to one of our officers as I have no means of sending it to England.things are very dear 1lb of bread here is 1/6 meat we cannot buy for any price we give 2 shillings for a bottle of porter or ale and we are only getting half allowance of rum to what we used to get and there it is a great deal of gambling amongst the troops'. The cross-written portion of the letter is of particular note for a passing mention of reformer of army medical services and of nursing organisation Florence Nightingale 1820-1910: 'Dear sister their sic are some kind ladies in these hospitals and kind nurses here to attend upon you. Miss Nightingale is here and Miss Roberts and some more very amicable from England'. . unknown‎

‎[Causes and Necessity of Taking Up Arms]‎

‎Virginia Gazette for Thursday July 20 1775.‎

‎<p>The complete text of the <em>Causes and Necessity of their Taking Up Arms</em> appears on pages 2 and 3 of the newspaper.</p><p>The Second Continental Congress convened in Philadelphia on May 10 1775 only about seven months after the First Continental Congress had adjourned. But with the battles at Lexington and Concord occurring in April 1775 hostilities had begun and the Congress needed to act. The action was the issuance on July 6 of the "Causes and Necessity of Taking Up Arms" a pivotal founding document that laid out the colonies' justification for war while making it clear that it was a defensive action and not a declaration of independence.</p><p>An initial draft of the <em>Causes </em>was rejected by the Congress as being too harsh. Thomas Jefferson and John Dickinson produced the new draft which the Congress approved. In the end the <em>Causes</em> was a masterful blend of airing grievances and reaching out for reconciliation while also clearly stating that independence was on the table if necessary.</p><p>While the British Parliament was the primary intended audience of the <em>Causes</em> it was also critical that the document satisfy the strongly divided Congress itself. At the time there was extreme tension between those advocating for independence and those in favor of a peaceful reconciliation. The final document provided enough justification to satisfy both sides - and allowed the journey to nationhood to continue to the next watershed moment the Declaration of Independence just a year later.</p><p>In addition to the important publication of the <em>Causes</em> this issue of the Virginia Gazette includes a brief mention debunking a report of an engagement in the days following that at Bunker Hill. It also prints "General Gage's false and audacious account of the late battle near Boston Bunker Hill."</p><p>As an aside it should be noted that during 1775 there were <u>three newspapers</u> all named the <em>Virginia Gazette</em> and all published concurrently in Williamsburg. They are easily distinguished by their respective publishers Pinkney in the case of the offered newspaper.</p><p>A rare and important paper very nicely preserved.</p><p><strong>Reference: </strong> Brigham <em>History and Bibliography of American Newspapers 1690 1820</em> noting holdings only at Library of Congress and New York Historical Society.</p><p><strong>Condition: </strong>Disbound; untrimmed. Expected age toning. Small ink blot in masthead and a spot of foxing to the first leaf. Overall a very good example.</p><p>ICN 7811.</p> John Pinkney‎
