William Cleland of Upper Canada [Bank of Scotland; Lord John Russell (1792-1878), Whig Prime Minister; Sir James Stephen (1789-1
William Cleland lunatic of Upper Canada. Autograph Petition Signed to Lord John Russell and Autograph Letter Signed to George Ross regarding his claim to have been cheated by the Bank of Scotland. With forwarding letter to the bank.
Letter from Governor Road near St George Dumfries Upper Canada. 1 November 1839 but with 3 June 1840 postmark. Petition stamped received on 1 June 1849. Forwarding letter: Downing Street London. 9 June 1840. ONE: Autograph Petiton Signed. 'Unto the Right Honble. Lord John Russell Secrety of State &c &c The Petition of Samuel Cleland residing near St George Dumfries Upper Canada'. 2pp. foolscap 8vo. In poor condition aged and worn at edges with one corner apparently nibbled away by mice. At least some of the damage would appear to be contemporary with the document as Cleland has written within the boundaries of the loss to the corner and there is no loss to text. Docketed in red at head '1091 U. Canada' and stamped 'Received C. D. June 1 1840'. As is his practice Russell has docketted the document in pencil: '1 June The Enclosure should be forwarded & I think that this document should be sent to the Bank of Scotland. The writer would appear to be deranged. R'. The first paragraph supports Russell's contention. Cleland asserts that he 'has been these Seven Years Brutally and Beastly abused no Horses no Cow in all the British dominons have been so kept since April 1832 He has not been permitted to enter a Bed but compelled to welter & Roll in his own polution sic by night and by day footnote reads 'by the Governor & Co. of the Bank of Scotland'. - that all this too by a Company with whom he never has had any action - by a Company that at a former period and with same manner have Rooted out and Extirpated from this World the whole Race Root & Branch to which he belonged and now that he is an Old man nor wealthy Friends nor relations nor any Human being in England that can afford him the smallest comfort nor assistance in distress neither is he able to labour for a subsistence'. The petition continues in the same vein. TWO: Autograph Letter Signed. 3pp. 4to. Bifolium. In better condition than Item One but also aged and worn. Addressed with postmark on reverse of second leaf to George Ross Esquire Advocate Edinburgh North Briton'. Written in the style as Itme One over 62 lines and beginning: 'When I was a Young Man I was several years a Clerk to a Mercht in Glasgow and was dismissed from the same at the Insistence of the Governor & co. of the Bank of Scotland.' THREE: Secretarial Letter signed by Sir James Stephen 'Jas Stephen' to the Governor & Company of the Bank of Scotland. Downing Street. 9 June 1840. 1p. foolscap 8vo. 'I am directed by Lord John Russell to transmit for your information the enclosed copy of a letter which has been addressed to his Lordship by Mr Samuel Cleland complaining of your conduct towards him.' Note; James Stephen was colonial secretary from 1834 saw the anti-slvery legislation through and was later "involved in the establishment of government in Canada". Letter from Governor Road near St George, Dumfries, Upper Canada. 1 November 1839 [but with 3 June 1840 postmark]. Petition stam unknown

William Guy Carr, Lt-Cmdr, RCNR R C N R
Checkmate in the North: The Axis Planned to Invade America
Toronto: The Macmillan Company of Canada Limited. Fair. 1945. Reprint. Hardcover. World War II required the United Nations to prepare for the threatened invasion of the American continent by the Axis Powers. Careful study indicated the Nazi timing of this invasion was the early winter of 1941-42. So confident in this plan were the Nazi Storm Troopers that German prisoners of war landing at a port in the St. Lawrence from England in 1940 were convinced they would soon be released by air-borne troops and armed again to assist in the plan of Nazi invasion. The George McNamara Construction Company of Toronto was awarded the contract for building the airport at Goose Bay Labrador and Mr. William Durrell to whom this book is dedicated was appointed General Superintendant of construction.- Paraphrased from Chapter 1. Carr 1895-1959 was appointed Senior Naval Officer at Goose Bay in June 1943. Here he recounts his fascinating experiences there concluding with his reflections on the war and the nature of man. Appendix provides a partial list of the mountain of equipment brought in by ship or plane to construct this mammoth project. 12 304 pages. 21.3 x 14 cm. Reprint of the 1944 first edition. Seventeen pages of black and white photographic plates. Somewhat above-average wear to publisher's blue cloth. Binding intact. Prior owner's name Maj. W.A. Randall penned atop front free endpaper. Dust jacket not included. Carr who served in both world wars would later pen Pawns in the Game and The Red Fog Over America which sold by the hundreds of thousands. A sound copy of this fascinating and relatively unknown WWII history.

William S. Boas & Company (compiled by)
Canada in World War II: Post-war Possibilities
612 pages including index. Copyright date 1945. Written prior to the end of WWII hostilities, this volume presents a fascinating province-by-province look at Canada's greatly expanded wartime industrialization, her governmental departments, and the companies and men responsible for this great development. Also presents Canada as a land of limitless forests, quick running streams producing tremendous waterpower, ocean-like lakes, vast stillness, and abundant wildlife. Book was published to introduce Canadians and friends of Canada abroad to this country's industrial capacity since, upon the termination of hostilities, it would be positioned to produce far more than this country of twelve million could consume internally. Large bright gilt title and Canadian Coat of Arms upon front board. Gilt title upon spine. Contains many dozens of black and white archival photographs of significant personalities, smoke stack industries, hydro-electric installations and much more. Former owner's bookplate inside front board. Five inch tear to page 395. Moderate soiling to front board. Light bumping and moderate wear to boards. Some soiling to lower edge.

Game Trails in British Columbia - Big Game and Other Sport in the Wilds of British Columbia
London: John Murray Publishers Limited 1925. Book. Good. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. pp. vi vii-xiv 360. Index. Thirty-three pages of black and white photographic plates. Author headed British Columbia's Game department for thirteen years. "Everything that is stated in this narrative with regard to the habits of our wild life is unless otherwise noted first-hand knowledge that has been acquired from personal observation during over thirty-five years of wandering in the country. There are in every man of British blood traces of primitive man. They create an overpowering desire to hunt and kill. It is likely that there was more than the ordinary share in me. This is a hard country for a man of education unless he has private means a profession or exceptional business ability. For a man of moderate means there is no country on the face of the earth where he can live a more healthy or enjoyable life; but if he expects to be frequently indulging in sport and also to amass the 'almighty dollar' he will have a sad disappointment. Fishing shooting and making money do not go well together. I can bear witness to this fact!" - Author's Foreword. Two names written upon front free endpaper. Trifle of writing inside back board. Foxing primarily to edges. Average wear to publisher's blue cloth lettered and decorated in gilt. No dust jacket. 22 x 15.5cm. A sound copy of this British Columbia hunting classic.
