I have made out a tentative list of tasks. that I think might be carried through. Publication of the ten separate titles listed in the central section could be arranged I am sure with Knopf or Scribners or Harpers if the right authors were enlisted."

Newmark, Harris [Edited By Maurice H And Marco R Newmark, Foreword By Charles F Lummis]
Sixty Years In Southern California 1853 - 1913 Containing The Reminiscences Of Harris Newmark Third Edition Revised And Augmented With 182 Illustrations
Boston: Houghton Mifflin 1930. Third Edition Revised and Augmented 1st Printing. Red Cloth. Very Good/No DJ. Photographic Plates 182 Illustrations. Xxxv 744 Pp. Red Cloth. First Printing 1930 Date On Title Page Of This Third Revised Edition Of These Massive Reminiscences Of Early Los Angeles By The Head Of Its Most Prominent Banking Family Circa 1880-1920. Light Wear Gilt Complete But Faint Cloth Clean No Marks Front Hinge Mostly Cracked Endpapers With Some Browning As Usual Fraying At Ends Of Spine. Per Wikipedia Harris Newmark 1834 - 1916 Was A Jewish American Businessman Philanthropist And Historian Who Was Born In The West Prussian City Of Löbau Now Lubawa Poland. Newmark Immigrated To The United States In 1853. He Sailed From Europe To New York City And Then To San Francisco. He Joined His Older Brother And Other Family In Los Angeles. His Branch Of The Family Were Among The Founders And Developers Of The Region. At The End Of 1885 Newmark Retired From The Grocery Business To Devote More Time To His Real Estate And Investment Pursuits. In 1886 He And Four Other Businessmen: His Nephew Kaspare Cohn John D. Bicknell Stephen M. White And I.W. Hellman-Purchased A 5000-Acre 20 Km2 Ranch Located In East Los Angeles Called Rancho Repetto. The Land Had Been Owned By An Italian Settler Named Alessandro Repetto Who Had Bequeathed The Ranch To His Brother Antonio. Newmark's Group Bought The Inheritance For Us$60000 Or About $12 Per Acre. In May 1899 Newmark Subdivided The Tract Owned By Him And His Nephew After Contracting With William Mulholland To Design And Construct A Suitable Water System For The New Settlement. Accounts Differ As To The Actual Size Of Newmark And Cohn's Parcel But It Was Somewhere Around 1200 To 1500 Acres 6.1 Km2. A Piece Of This Tract Adjacent To The Tracks Of The San Pedro Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad Was Developed Into A Town Site Called Newmark. The Remaining Land Was Subdivided Into 5-Acre 2.0 Ha Lots Suitable For Small-Scale Agriculture. The Entire Settlement Including The Newmark Town Site Was Given The Name Montebello.

From the foreword via google translate: "The world is full of wonders if we only had eyes to see them with; but in the Bible are found even more and greater wonders than anywhere else. There are wonders of wisdom love power and goodness which are astonishing to behold; but we need God's help to be able to see these wonders. It was this very help that David prayed for when he lifted up his heart to God and said: "Open mine eyes that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law."

An Historiette Midway With particular Reference to the Movement to Erect the Screven-Stewart Monument to Which are Added Sketches Ofthe Lives and Services of Generals James Screven and Daniel Stewart By William Harden
Savannah Georgia: Braid and Hutton 1915. First Edition . Soft cover. Very Good/None as Issued. VG/0/1st ed. This is a pretty scarce piece in really nice condition. There are two major flaws: the booklet has pulled away from the cover at the top staple and the booklet has been folded over length wise undoubtedly to fit in a man's back pocket. The cover is still pretty securely attached to the booklet. The interior is very clean and there's no foxing or soiling to any of the pages. 40 pp. with several pictures of the Midway Church and cemetery. Some light surface soiling on cover a couple of small old stains. Comes to you in an acid free document bag for storage. I can have it in the mail to you tomorrow.
