Millet the artist who was director of decorations for the 1893 Chicago World's Fair Columbian Exposition. Henry was born in Leeds on September 23rd 1832. He was the son of Thomas and Elmira A. Day Millet. His great-grandfather Thomas Millet was a patriot soldier in the revolution. Henry received a good education in the common schools of Palmyra and St. Albans. In 1851 when he was 19 years old he went to Campello Massachusetts and worked in a shoe factory and this is where the diaries pick up while he's in Campello. He stayed in there until about 1858 headed home to Gorham and in 1861 enlisted in Company A 5th Maine Regiment Sixth Corps Second Brigade First Division. Online resources provide: "He served with distinguished bravery in some of the most momentous engagements of the war including the first battle of Bull Run West Point Antietam Fredericksburg Salem Heights Gettysburg the Wilderness Rappahannock Station Spotsylvania Court house Cold Harbor where his brother Obed was killed the second battle of Bull Run the second engagement at Fredericksburg and Gaine's Mill
." He was wounded numerous times during some of these battles but also that he went home "loaded with honors." After the war he married in 1870 to M. Antoinette daughter of Freeman Whitney of Portland. The 1856 diary is about ½ full of handwritten entries the 1857 diary only has 300 days. Here are some snippets - and some are shocking: "Steel not this book the fear of your life. For the owner carries a great big knife." 1856 "January 21st I haven't Nig-er killed eny today."

Henry Saint-Jean Lord Vicomte de BOLINGBROKE
Lettres sur l'histoire
s. l.: S. n. 1752. Fine. S. n. s. l. 1752 10 x 16.20 cm relié New edition after the first edition published in 1749. One portrait as frontispiece. Les réflexions sur l'exil has its own title page in volume I as does the Lettre à Mylord Bathurst in the second. Contemporary full glazed blonde calf binding. Spine with raised bands decorated. Red morocco title and volume labels. 4 corners bumped one trimmed. Volume II slightly worn at foot. Rubbing. Rather handsome copy. Secretary of state then English Minister of Foreign Affairs Lord Bolingbroke was an influential statesman who experienced both notoriety and disgrace. He pursued a literary career alongside his political activities beginning by contributing to the writing of the journal The examiner against the Whig party. The 2 volumes gather the author's philosophical works which would have a lasting influence on philosophers such as Pope or Voltaire or even Mirabeau. His philosophy is inherited from Locke and the author shows himself in his writings to be anti-clerical and anti-religious but deist. In the second volume we find a historical work on the state of Europe before the Treaty of Utrecht of which Bolingbroke was one of the architects. Bookplate: Bibliothèque de Belay. S. n. hardcover

Henry SALT - (Jean-Francois CHAMPOLLION) - (Thomas YOUNG)
Essay on Dr. Young's and M. Champollion's Phonetic System of Hieroglyphics
London: A.J. Valpy 1825. Fine. A.J. Valpy London 1825 15.20 x 24 cm 1 volume relié First edition with seven folding plates engraved by Hallmandel after G. Schärf. Beige full calf binding spine with five raised bands framed in gilt gilt lettered morocco title label lengthwise stamped arms of the Society of Writers to the Signet in the center of the boards. Restored spine and corners brittle spine ends spalls and stains to boards. A very rare and important publication by the British Consul General in Egypt in 1815 Henry Salt 1780-1827involved in the excavation of several historical sites and the collection of numerous antiquities. The most remarkable of these is the colossal bust of Ramses II found at Thebes and housed in the British Museum which is said to have inspired Percy Shelley's ""Ozymandias"". Salt carefully reproduces and explains various inscriptions bearing the cartouches of Egyptian gods and pharaohs. He made valuable contributions to the understanding of hieroglyphics following Thomas Young's work on the Rosetta Stone and Jean-François Champollion's groundbreaking discoveries presented in 1822. Historiography even proved that he successfully translated some Egyptian names independently of Champollion's work. Provenance: bindings with the arms of the Society of Writers to the Signet Scottish sollicitors association founded in the late 16th century. Library shelf label glued to the flyleaf. A.J. Valpy hardcover

HENRY SNEVELY (or SNAVELY)
1802 - 1803 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT BOOK OF MATHEMATICS GEOMETRY TRIGONOMETRY AND MORE GEARED TOWARDS THE IRISH IMMIGRANTS NEW TO THE SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA TOWNSHIP
BETHEL TOWNSHIP LEBANON COUNTY PENNSYLVANIA. Good. 1802. On offer is an interesting document of early 19th century education an original handwritten note book covering a myriad of subjects related to mathematics. The owner and creator of this book was a man named Henry Snevely also written as Snavely and the book dates from 1802 - 1803. It seems Snevely was born in the United States and lived his whole life in Southeastern Pennsylvania. At the time of the creation of the book Snevely was almost 50 years old an established land owner in Bethel Township Lebanon County. Why he had a book of mathematics is unknown however I have found records of a Henry Snavely who taught at a school in Bethel Township from 1797 onwards. It may be likely that this book is actual not for Henry himself but for the instruction of his students. Either way the book presents a fantastic overview of early 18th century knowledge. The book covers a very large range of topics however Math pertaining to financial matters is dominant throughout. As well there are conversions of Irish and British currency. The primary immigrants to the area at the time of the book were indeed Scotch-Irish so teaching Irish and British currency conversions wouldnt be too far off. Currency exchange in particular is a primary focus owing to the large amount of immigrants to the area. Individual page headings in the book include Exchange many pages Exchange of Arbitrations Barter Profit and Loss Fellowship Fellowship with Time Allegation Media Alternate Partial and Total Square Root Cube Root Arithmetical and Geometric Progression Compound Interest Single and Double Position Reduction Addition Subtraction Multiplication and Division of Fractions and Vulgar Fractions Rule of Three in Fractions and Questions for Exercise. There is a later manuscript memorandum on rear endpaper dated 1829 bearing the names of additional members of the Pennsylvania Snavely clan Molly George and John. The name Martin Rupp also appears in memorandum and our research confirms various Martin Rupps residing in southeastern Pennsylvania during this time. The book is in fair to good condition. The volume is bound in the original stiff paper wraps. The cover is very worn and the spine is torn and partially detached. There is mild age-toning and occasional staining but the internal pages are generally clean. The black ink is still bold and easily legible throughout. The book contains about 85 pages of manuscript entries and the book itself is approximately 90 pages. It measures 12.5 x 8 inches. Biography: Henry Snavely was born on August 2 1755 in Bethel Township Lebanon County Pennsylvania. .Henry Snavely was a Lutheran. At that time he was considered a good scholar and is said to have been a hard student obtaining his knowledge principally by his own exertion. He taught the school from 1797 to 1807.; A report from 1773 shows his farm had 150 acres 5 horses 4 cattle and no servants.
