‎HALL Fitch 1759 1841‎

‎Autograph Letter Signed‎

‎Businessman son of reknowned Medford Massachusetts rum manufacturer Benjamin Hall 1731-1817 who "more than any other individual brought Medford to its first great period of prosperity 1750-1800 and daringly led the small community through the perils of the Revolution" almost bankrupting himself in the process. Fascinating ALS 2pp integral address leaf 8" X 9�" New York NY 1797 April 27. Addressed to his father Benjamin Hall 1731-1817. Very good. Mild overall age toning more to outer address panel. Intriguing letter regarding some unnamed "great discovery." Reads in part: ".it is thought a great discovery both there Philadelphia & here I had an application for the right in some of the Western Counties in Virginia. I have also had some applications here but I have concluded not to dispose of any part of it until it is brought to perfection the more I reflect on it the better I think of it." Goes on to discuss difficulties with a Mr. Brasher apparently an investor owing Hall five thousand dollars. "I suppose that Cash might be rais'd here from the patent but it must be by making a great sacrifice the person who advancing would expect a certain proportion of the patent which nothing but absolute necessity would induce me to do" -- and here Hall's ultimate sales pitch -- "I am willing to sell a proportion to you which shall be equal to your advances & which shall be a very handsome profit. if you do not think the patent an object I will put security into your hands to the amount of Ten Thousand Dollars." It seems likely that Fitch Hall was an early and enthusiastic capitalist promoting the steam engine of SAMUEL MOREY 1762-1843 the American inventor who constructed some of the earliest steam propelled ships and in 1795 was issued a patent for a steam engine. In 1797 Morey built a craft in New Jersey that placed a paddle wheel on each side of the boat. This boat was exhibited in Philadelphia where Fitch Hall had just been visiting before writing his father "I arriv'd here from Philadelphia on Saturday Evening" this letter opens. According to one source "arrangements were made with certain capitalists for the construction and practical operation of large steamboats but financial distress overtook those interested before they could execute their plans." Fitch Hall it is our belief was one of those very capitalists and this letter represents a rare glimpse into one of the earliest fundraising efforts for Samuel Morey's steamboat. Most unusual and interesting. unknown‎

‎The influential English geologist is actually best known for his "Origin History and Principles of Gothic Architecture" a 1797 lecture delivered in Edinburgh that was subsequently published in a number of editions; he was father of the noted travel writer Basil Hall 1788-1844. Excellent content ALS 2pp 7�" X 8 3/4" Edinburgh Scotland 1824 April 20. Addressed simply to "Sir." Very good. Slightest of age toning. Interesting bookish contents reading in part: "I now return with many thanks the books which you have been so kind as to lend me. The following is the list of them which I trust you will find to be correct. The principia of Sir I. Newton translated into English by Motte in two volumes. Robinson's Mechanical Philosophy. Nouvelles experience sur la resistance des fluides. I have used the freedom to keep these books some days longer than I intended to have done; being tempted to run over the last which I have done with great satisfaction having used the freedom to cut open the leaves. The book contains many interesting suggestions towards the execution of the experiments. and I shall be glad to resume it again when I hope for the advantage once more of your advice & assistance. at the same time I beg of you to accept of a copy of my book on Gothic Architecture." Bold and attractive in Hall's usual sprawling hand. unknown‎
