Cowboy Poetry / Western Americana. Crawford John "Captain Jack" Wallace 1847 1917
JUST An IMPROMPTU THOUGHT Or TWO. For William & Mrs. I. Schaffer. Midnight July 24th. or 25th. 1916
Napanoch NY 1916. Pale blue laid linen paper with watermark. Printed blue Yama Farms letterhead typed poem. Fold lines few pin holes to upper corner. VG. Broadside. Printing/type to recto only. 10-15/16" x 8-7-16" <br/><br/>Typed poem with "Copy" noted in manuscript beneath the letterhead though nevertheless presumed original to the occasion. The poem is addressed to William and Mrs. I. Schaffer from "Your Broncho Friend of the Camp and the Trail J.W. Crawford 'Capt. Jack.'" Crawford and the Schaffers apparently met and spent time together at Yama Farms. The poem consists of two octaves and begins "To a pair of Happy Lovers / Whom I met at Yama Farms / Who are dead in love with Lovers / Of Old Mother Nature's charms . . . " We presume that the author is "Poet Scout" John Wallace "Captain Jack" Crawford. Crawford was a soldier and ranger in the West during the Civil War a failed miner a showman in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show until 1877 when he accidentally shot himself in the groin and an eventual lecturer and cowboy poet at events around the country; he died in New York in 1917. Yama Farms was a popular Japanese-inspired resort in Ulster County New York from 1903 to 1938. It hosted among others Henry Ford Thomas Edison John Burroughs Harvey Firestone Rabindranath Tagore and many other industrialists financiers influential members of New York society literati etc. unknown books

Crisfield, John Woodland (1808-1897); United States. Congress. House Committee on Public Lands.
COLORADO DESERT. [To accompany bill H.R. No. 417]. Report. 37th Congress, 2d Session House. Report No. 87.
26 p. 8vo. 225 mm. Disbound. Removed. Very Good. In 1861, Crisfield was elected as a Unionist from the 1st Congressional district of Maryland, serving one term from March 4, 1861 until March 3, 1863. Although Maryland remained loyal to the Union at the outbreak of the American Civil War, the state was divided on the question of slavery and the emancipation of Maryland slaves. On December 16, 1861 a bill was presented to Congress to emancipate slaves in Washington DC, and in March 1862 Lincoln held talks with Crisfield on the subject of emancipation. Crisfield however argued that freedom would be worse for the slaves than slavery, especially in time of war, but such arguments could no longer hold back the abolitionist tide. By summer, Congress passed the Confiscation Act of 1862, which permitted the Union army to enlist African-American soldiers, and barred the army from recapturing runaway slaves. In July 1862 Lincoln offered to buy out Maryland slaveholders, offering $300 for each emancipated slave, but Crisfield rejected the offer. In 1862 Congress passed the Emancipation Proclamation which declared all slaves in Southern states to be free, but Maryland, like other border states, was exempted since she had remained loyal to the Union at the outbreak of war. In 1863 Crisfield was defeated in local elections by the abolitionist candidate John Creswell, amid allegations of vote-rigging by the army. After being defeated at the polls, Crisfield resumed the practice of law. It is interesting here that he distracted immersed himself with the early disputes over waters from the Colorado River, and the rich (but dry) lands in Southern California. GEOLOGY 2
