Simond and Hankey, London bankers deeply involved in the West Indian sugar and slave trade; Peter Simond (1691-1785); John Hanke
Simond and Hankey London bankers involved in the West Indian sugar and slave trade. Two manuscript bills in French ‘A Messieurs Messrs. Ante. & Dan. Bierens a Amsterdam’ each signed by ‘Pre: Simond’ and endorsed by ‘Jean Hankey’.
Both dated from ‘Londres ce 15e. Decembre 1758’ London. With the surge of interest in the slave trade attention has lately been directed at Simond and Hankey a ‘past constituent’ of the NatWest Bank. These two items are nice artefacts of the firm. Both are in good condition lightly aged and laid out in the same way with the bill written out on one side of a 22.5 x 9 cm slip of laid paper. One is for ‘Deux Cent Livres Sterling a trente quatre Sols neuf deniers de gros’ and the other for ‘Cent Soixante Sterling a Trente quatre Sols dix deniers de gros’. Both drawn on ‘Messrs. Vernede & Co’. Each signed ‘Pre: Simond’ and both endorsed by ‘Jean Hankey’ with instructions in French for the bill of £160 to be paid to the account of ‘Messieurs Gme. Van Brienen & fils’ and that of £200 to ‘Messieurs Geo. Clifford & fils’. Both dated from ‘Londres ce 15e. Decembre 1758’ [London]. unknown

Sir Eric A Carpenter [ Sir Eric Ashton Carpenter ] (1896-1973), President of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce, banker and indu
Cheadle Hulme School Manchester and Sir Eric A. Carpenter. Duplicated 'Address by E. A. Carpenter J.P. President Manchester Chamber of Commerce' at the 'Cheadle Hulme School Founders' Day Service'.
Cheadle Hulme Paris Church Manchester . 29 October 1948. Carpenter who was knighted in 1951 'For services as President Manchester Chamber of Commerce' was a leading Manchester industrialist and banker. Among the numerous positions listed in his entry in Who Was Who he was for 40 years the chairman and managing director of the Manchester cotton manufacturers Greg Brothers & Co. and for 21 years a director of Williams Deacon's Bank serving as chairman for 12 years a leading member of the Cotton and Rayon Merchants' Association the Association of British Chambers of Commerce and the International Chamber of Commerce. 17pp. landscape 12mo paginated 1 1A 2-17. On seventeen leaves punched in corner and attached with metal-tipped tie to grey card covers on which the title and other details are printed. Carpenter begins by explaining that 'Mr. Lockhart the Headmaster of my old school invited me to give the address at the Founders' Day Service' and explains that he is going to begin the address 'on a rather personal note' giving the biblical quotation which he will take as his text. He continues: 'My father passed away when I was about eight years of age and I have therefore few very vivid recollections of his influences upon me but amongst them is one of being taken to what was then a country walk from Heaton Mersey to Didsbury Parish Church for service on Sunday mornings.' After a reference to his mother he continues: 'It is nearly 37 years since at the age of 15 I completed five years of boarding-school days at Cheadle Hulme and became a very young “Old Boy.â€' He continues for a while with a discussion of the school's influence on him it having 'led' him to 'the firm Greg Brothers with which I have been privileged to spend the whole of my business life' and also having 'fitted' him 'to enter upon voluntary work in the Chamber of Commerce and other organisations in the commercial field. That has led to my being honoured and entrusted with the presidency of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce and incidentally to my presence in this pulpit this morning.' He turns to the need for voluntary work and 'Service before Need' 'pride in our work' 'our standards of honesty' and the 'desperate need of leadership' in the world. The address ends with a pious exhortation. Scarce: no other copy traced either on OCLC WorldCat or on COPAC. Cheadle Hulme Paris Church [ Manchester ]. 29 October 1948. unknown

SLAVE TRADE
An Act to regulate for a limited Time The shipping and carrying Slaves in British Vessels from the Coast of Africa.
London: Printed by Charles Eyre and Andrew Strahan 1787 i.e. 1788. Among the earliest Parliamentary responses to the British slave trade First edition of the first British law to regulate slave shipping preserved in its original volume of yearly parliamentary acts. The law bound 54th in this volume pioneered techniques of popular abolitionist appeal. The Slave Trade Act 1788 limited the number of enslaved persons that could be transported on British ships. It also required that all ships carried a doctor to monitor the conditions of the enslaved persons. The Act was supported through Parliament by Sir William Dolben 1727-1814 and Charles Stanhope 1753-1816. LoGerfo notes of their campaign that "the machinery used to appeal to the literate public would also be used in the future" p. 450. This volume collects 57 acts passed by the 16th Parliament of Great Britain which met from November 1787 to July 1788 and was led by Pitt the Younger. Like all Parliamentary statutes of this period the Slave Trade Act was separately printed with a general title page for inclusion in the yearly volumes of acts. Most of these statutes were printed with their own title pages included in the signatures and pagination - here all such pages have been removed. These laws were printed in limited numbers usually estimated at around 1100 copies only. The volume includes laws against chimney sweeps and child labour and measures to compensate dispossessed American loyalists in the years after the Revolution. Folio 304 x 191 mm pp. 1012 = 900 title pages of individual acts removed. Woodcut device to title page woodcut head- tailpieces and initials to contents. Contemporary quarter sheep spine lettered and with black morocco label in gilt marbled paper sides. Bumping and wear minor loss to spine ends joints cracked but holding firm slight browning and foxing to endpapers and contents slight marking to edges: a good copy. ESTC N58828; N58797 Slave Trade Act. James W.

SLAVE TRADE
The Assiento; or Contract For Allowing to the Subjects of Great Britain the Liberty of Importing Negroes into the Spanish America.
London: Printed for John Baskett Printer to the Queens most Excellent Majesty And by the Assigns of Thomas Newcomb and Henry Hills deceas'd 1713. A foundational document in the transatlantic slave trade First edition of a major development of the transatlantic slave trade which greatly expanded the market for British slave traders in the Americas and helped establish Britain as the predominant slave trading power. After the War of the Spanish Succession Spain ceded to Britain the exclusive right to import African slaves into Spanish America. This monopoly the Assiento was delegated to the newly formed South Sea Company and held until 1750. The supposed value of the Assiento was the basis of the South Sea Bubble. In fact the restrictive terms - slave numbers were capped and all shipments were heavily taxed by the Spanish Crown - resulted in the South Sea Company never making substantial profit from the agreement. Nonetheless the Assiento played a major role in boosting and consolidating Britain's role in the Atlantic slave trade. The front free endpaper contains a detailed contemporary owner's note naming the binder of the volume - John Worrall - the price paid how it was constructed and how the book should be used: a very unusual survival. The notes state "This book Intituled State Pamphlets was bound by John Worrall for 2s. 2d. and containes 425 leaves". Little is recorded of John Worrall. He was apprenticed from 1674 to 1682 and was working at Warwick Court in 1709 and at Fleet Ditch in 1722. He died in 1726 all from Howe p. 103. The notes continue that the contents are consecutively numbered in manuscript and to use that numbering not the pagination of the original pamphlets. It specifies that "Remarks" are to be "entred in the proper cleane leaves as the observation thereof sees best" - blanks are bound between the tracts. It then notes that the manuscript table should be placed as the second leaf as is found. It refers the reader to another volume with more detailed instructions - it is evident the volume was held in a library which anticipated wide use. The nine other works bound in the volume - an inventory is available on request - date from 1688 to 1714 and are tracts on religion law and politics alongside the Treaty of Utrecht. It includes Jonathan Swift's first political work A Discourse of the Contests and Dissensions between the Nobles and Commons in Athens and Rome 1701 - this copy is the second issue with most of the first edition type corrected and reset. 10 works bound in 1 vol. quarto 206 x 156 mm. Contemporary calf red morocco label to style covers ruled in blind edges sprinkled red. 19th-century ownership signature "S. Louise Langdon" to verso of manuscript contents leaf. Joints and extremities restored slight staining to endpapers a little browned occasional trimming to pagination. Overall very good. ESTC T4476 another issue only has Baskett in the imprint; Kress 5020; Sabin 2227. Ellic Howe A List of London Bookbinders 1648-1815 1950. unknown
