‎VIRGINIA LAND DEED‎

‎Virginia 1778. One folded sheet. Approximately 550 words. Tanned at folds. Some ink burn through page. An embossment on one side reads "Washington County." A small closed tear affects approximately six characters. A manuscript land deed written by Isaac Cox for the sale of land to John Decker. In the deed Cox refers to "Yohogania County" a Virginia county created in 1776. The county included much of south-western Pennsylvania and overlapped with Pennsylvania's own western claims. The land in question is "on the river Ohio and bounded on the East by lands of Thomas Pollack and on the North by lands of William McMahan said land goes by the name of the Mingo Bottom containing four hundred acres." Mingo was a term for the Native Americans mostly Iroquois who had been displaced and settled in the northern Ohio river basin. Modern-day Mingo Junction lies in the far rnorthern pan-handle of West Virginia north of Steubenville Ohio and would have had close associations with Washington County Pennsylvania than Virginia. This association would explain why in 1806 a Washington County clerk approved the deed. unknown books‎

‎The American Safeguard or the Constitution of the United States with its Political History. Also containing a Brief Treatise on Political Economy‎

‎Salem OR: W.A. McPherson & Co 1867. First edition. 381 pp. 1 full-page illustration. 8vo. Contemporary three quarter roan over cloth gilt title to spine. Some rubbing and wear to extremities rear joint cracked front board detaching interior unevenly toned but clean. Housed in tan slipcase with leather spine labels. Provenance: C.C. Went 1897 signature. First edition. 381 pp. 1 full-page illustration. 8vo. The state legislator's second book The American Safeguard was principally intended as a manual for politicians particularly the sections on parliamentary practice which were probably targeted at Cox's more indecorous colleagues but also designed to be used in classrooms and as a layman's guide. <br /> <br /> As was sometimes the case for Cox himself given his Democratic political leanings news of the work's publication received a frosty reception in the local press including the Oregon Sentinel: "Give us the constitution and tell us what the big words mean; but.spare us the marginal notes especially if they are Confederate Currency." The text of the U.S. Constitution featuring the newly ratified Thirteenth Amendment is indeed accompanied by an "analytical index" and a series of "political definitions." But Cox surprised audiences with the work's "Treatise upon the Government and History of the United States" and "Manual of Political Economy" both of which contradicted Democratic orthodoxies on slavery and protective tariffs. "We must congratulate Mr. Cox on the breadth of his views and the justness of his sentiments" writes a contemporary reviewer in the Portland Oregonian. "He has completely vindicated the course of his political opponents and exposed the errors of his own party." <br /> <br /> The work was reissued in California in 1893; both editions are scarce.

In service of the Dutch West Indian Company WIC Coymans "collaborated with two members of the Amsterdam vroedschap Nicolaes Pancras and Hendrik Carloff to establish a Glückstadter Africa Company. When Coymans schemed to involve the WIC in a war with Denmark in order to benefit this new enterprise and its backers he found himself charged with treason. . His supporters in the vroedschap saved him from the death penalty; he was however condemned to six years in prison and eternal banishment" Lindemann.

‎Lessons of Thrift Published for General Benefit By a Member of the Save-all Club‎

‎London: Printed for Thomas Boys of Ludgate Hill printed by Thomas Davison Whitefriars 1820. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. Cruikshank Isaac Robert. Quarto size 212 pp. not matching pagination see below with 12 aquatints by Isaac Robert Cruikshank. A humorous collection of sketches exalting through parody the merits of the thrifty. The writing although very much a parody contains many nuggets of truths which illuminate how little the world has changed in the about 200 years since the book's publication: "Money money alone though it has been unaccountably neglected by authors strangers perhaps to its very name and still more to its practical use and management. . .is the mainspring of all human action want wish and desire." The author goes on to state that it is the desire of "the Save-all Club" to keep "the Kind and Benevolent Reader" out of the grip of poverty through thrift. The "Rules of the Club" provide amusing proof of such virtue: Rule VI "The smallest superfluous expense is not only a reproach to a member but he may be fined by the Committee for the use of the poor"; and Rule IV "As a new coat never fails to attract animadversion in the Club the members are requested to avoid that singularity as much as possible. If it prove that the coat is only turned the owner shall dine that day GRATIS".<br/><br/>Isaac Robert Cruikshank 1759-1856 was a popular English caricature artist and cartoonist and like his brother George is known for his pioneer work in the history of comics and comic strip cartoons. He collaborated often with George who is better known for his work with Charles Dickens. <br/><br/>This edition was originally issued in boards and had pp. 39-42 87-110 and 163-178 omitted as is the case in this edition and all known editions and which is explained in a footnote appearing on p. xvi: "The reader will perceive an hiatus after p. 38 another after p. 86 and a third after p. 162. Some digressions occurred in those places on subjects too abstruse to be generally interesting; they have therefore been withdrawn; but in consequence of a temporary absence of the author the suppression took place after the work was printed. As the connexion of its parts is not disturbed it is hoped that the liberty thus taken will be tolerated with indulgence." Additionally this copy has plate no. 11 bound as the frontis instead of being bound at p. 186. Each plate is marked "Designed and Etched by I. which appears as a "J" at this date in keeping with the Latin tradition R. Cruikshank" and bears the imprint "Published by Thomas Boys Ludgate Hill London Dec. 1 1819."<br/><br/>___DESCRIPTION: Custom bound by Bennett Book Studio NY with their binder's stamp on the verso of the front free endpaper in quarter blue morocco and marbled paper covered boards backstrip stamped in gilt top-edge gilt fore- and tail-edges uncut engraved title page with the coloured vignette of a three-pronged candlestick which is thrifty as one can burn a candle down to the base twelve aquatint plates including frontis; quarto size 10 1/8" by 6 5/8" pagination: i ii-xvi 1 2-38 43-86 111-162 179-240 pp. first edition. <br/><br/>___CONDITION: A near fine copy the marbled paper boards clean and unrubbed with only a few light stray marks the leather shelfback smooth with a few light spots of rubbing and the gilt bright straight corners a strong square text block with solid hinges the interior is clean and the volume is entirely free of prior owner markings; some sunning to the spine light rubbing to the corners some of the plates have toned with corresponding offsetting to the opposite text pages one leaf pp. 221-222 with the fore-edge bottom corner torn loss of about an inch only in the ample margins with no loss of text; still overall a near fine copy.<br/><br/>___CITATION: Tooley no 165 this copy without the final advertisement leaf which "is however usually wanting".<br/><br/>___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details.<br/><br/>___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
