‎JOHN VANCE LAUDERDALE JR.‎

‎1907 EUROPEAN TRAVEL DIARY OF THE SON AND FAMILY OF FAMED CIVIL WAR SURGEON AND AUTHOR‎

‎OCEAN LINER 'MOLTKE' EUROPE. Very Good. 1907. On offer is an original 1907 handwritten travel diary representing 60 handwritten pages of a trip to Europe on board the ocean liner "Moltke". Research has determined the diary was written by 18 year old John Vance Lauderdale Jr. while on a trip with his mother his Aunt Mary and a Mr. Lane. The diary was originally purchased at the John Vance Lauderdale famed surgeon Civil War veteran and author - bio notes to follow - estate and written references buying a present for Marjorie his sister make the son most certainly author. There is also a mention of him while there in Europe and he writes about going to the "Brooklyn Daily Eagle" newspaper office while in Paris which appears that our author was purchasing a "hometown" paper to catch up on all the local news. 1907 "Tuesday 28 May At 11:35 a.m. on the above date the Moltke of the H.A.P. A. G. which means Hug all pretty American girls started with her handsome passengers for Naples. We passed Bay Ridge and saw for the last time in a good while the boat house of the C.A.C. There are many pretty girls aboard and although I have not met any yet I expect to. I was much surprised to see the course we took on going out. We kept straight out of the harbor as if we were going to Atlantic Highlands. When we got almost to Sandy Hook we turned at right angles and then went due east. It was not very long before I had been all on the ship from stem to stern. I got talking with all the stewards who could speak English and had quite a confab with the Macaroni man. Our stateroom although an inside one is all to the good. Sitting in the steamer chairs is to slow for me. At about 11:00 p.m. I went to bed and slept bum. The sea was very smooth." Wednesday 29th I awoke and found that I could not take my first salt water bath until 9:30. I fooled around until then and when the time came I was on hand. Gee it was fine. Played shuffle board and met the Morrel Girls. One of the steerage tried to jump overboard but was prevented. Sea was choppy." "Tuesday 12th At 8 o' we took carriages and drove to the station where we took electric tramways to the foot of Mt. Vesuvius. Then by taking a drive of 10 minutes we landed at Cooks Funicular RR. This took us to the laboratory of the observatory. As there was nothing to see more from the top of the crater than what we could see so we did not ascend. Had a very nice lunch at the hotel and came down the mountain at 12:35. Drove to the station and took a tram for Pompeii. Did Pompeii and saw the dead bodies coated with lava. Arrived home at 7:00 Had dinner�." Rome Hotel Central Old Roma "Monday 18th In the morning Mr. O and I went up to the hall of St. Peters It was a long hot climb but well worth the trouble. We could see the Med. Sea and all of the surrounding country. After that went to the shops but did not buy anything��Leave for Florence tomorrow." Venice "Thursday 21st At 10:40 we left Florence for Venice. On the way to the station Mr. Lane had a fainting spell but soon got over it. We had the hottest filthiest ride on the train I ever had in my life. It most did me up. At 7:20 we reached Venice and were conveyed to our Hotel Rome in gondolas. I think they are fine. After dinner we took a walk to St. Mark's Square heard the band play and then took a gondola for an hour. There is a beautiful moon and I had the time of my life. Gosh how I wished for a nice looking girl. I would like to spend my days here with the right one." Milan Geneva Montreux Palace Hotel "Thursday 27th At the Montreux. Took a trolley ride and left on the 1:11 boat for Geneva. Stayed at the Montreux Palace Hotel which cost 7000 francs. Had beautiful rooms. The sail up Lake Geneva was superb. Arrived at Geneva at 4:30. Had a swim in the lake and enjoyed it very much. After dinner went to vaudeville and saw many new sights to bed at 12:30. At 5:00 in the afternoon had a swim." Bern Interlaken Lucerne Munich "July 7th Went to church not getting there until it was almost out being unable to find it. At noon saw the soldiers drill in front to the police. Beat our own soldiers to pieces. After lunch wrote some letters and went to a place called Volks Gardens. A young Coney Island. Saw how the Germans spend their Sundays�." Vienna "Saturday 13th At 5:50 I was awakened and got dressed and my bag was packed at 6:30. Had breakfast and left the hotel and Vienna or Wein at 8:15. We had a long trip of 11 hours from 8:05 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Played cards and read the entire book Jerry Jr. It did not seem as long a trip as it might have for I found much to amuse myself with. We are at the Hotel Union and I am in my room waiting for 10:10 p.m. to come when I am due in the bath room. I do not care much about traveling in the foreign railroads. Had a rotten meal in the wagon Restaurant or dining car." Dresden Berlin Mayene Cologne Amsterdam "Thursday 25th We took the train for the Hagen and reached there about 3:15. As soon as we arrived Mrs. F. D. and I hiked out to Scheveninging the famous watering place. The water was quite cold but we had a fine time. The bathing houses are on wheels and while undressing one is pulled out into the ocean where he is to swim. No walking the beach. In the evening the whole dam party went and it was not much fun for us." The Hague Antwerp Brussels Paris "Tuesday 31st .arrived in the gayest city Paris of Europe about 5:13. All our luggage had to go through custom house and it detained us quite a little while. The hotel is very large and my room is on the 5 top floor 283 steps from the lift by actual count." "Monday 6th Awoke at 7:25 put on some of my clothes and have been making up my back notes. After breakfast went with ma and Aunt Mary and we went to the office of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. They are well situated on one of the main streets and they gave us a copy of yesterday's paper�.hot as hell here under the roof." "Wednesday 8th In the morning I spent most of my time in the office of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle office. Read all about the fire down at Long Beach. Yesterday I met Florence Morrison again I believe she's also from Brooklyn��" London "Monday 13th Went and bought father a rain coat. Then I went to London Tower again and the Tower Bridge. Crossed London Bridge on foot and went up on top of the Fire Monument. After lunch went to Whole Sales Leather store and brought a fine dress suit case. Bought Mr. Lane his presents a gold case and cigarette mouth piece." The entries suddenly stop on July 16th with them still being in London. After that one finds three pages of a handwritten poem that seems to be a collaboration of past experiences and also his present experiences on board the Moltke. It sounds like he is writing it for a girl back home. At one point in the poem he says "poor John" and he very well could mean himself. This is a great European travel diary even without the historical family significance. The cover is really not in good condition at all poor in fact but the pages are clean and tight to the binding. It measures about 4" x 5 �". There is also the original pencil that came with the diary. BIO NOTES: "John Vance Lauderdale was born in Sparta N.Y. in 1832.

‎JOHN WHEELER RUTLEDGE to Julia Ann Ward Rutledge‎

‎1835 HANDWRITTEN LETTER FROM A DOTING HUSBAND IN BALTIMORE TO HIS WIFE TOUCHING ON FAMILY FRIENDS AND THE GROWTH AND LOVE OF THEIR CHILDREN TOGETHER‎

‎BALTIMORE MARYLAND MD CAMPBELL VIRGINA VA. Good. 1835. On offer is a letter written from Baltimore in 1835 by John Wheeler Rutledge to his loving wife and friend Julia Ann Rutledge in Virginia. The letter is sweet and obviously shows a deep devotion to his wife. As to why they are apart it does not say but it seems that Julia is with her family in Virginia. They�re home seems to be in Baltimore as John speaks of their children and of his work most probably as a farmer. The letter touches on a number of subjects but mostly family friends and some gossip. It was written in Baltimore on October 20th 1834. It begins �My Dear Julia Ann� and after some words about receiving her last letter he writes about his �great satisfaction to hear of your safe arrival and good health and of Martha Ganes being so much pleased with her board. It also gives me great pleasure to inform you that my health is much better than it was when you left home.� He believes �the main cause is that preacher is gone.which I now think was a great drain back on my health.� He lets her know that his children are doing well in good health and very fond of her and often �asking me question about going to Virginia for you and about Grand Ma and sister.� He mentions that his son Randolph has �fattened like a little pig� and �become very fond of me.� His son Randolph was born in 1834 and is one year old. He then tells her of their cousin Jane who is visiting and �seems quite low spirited at times complains very much of being so lonesome.� John may be a farmer in Baltimore as he tells Julia that he has got a �lot of corn by the Spring House pulled shucked and lofted� and of the �pumpkins gathered.� John says he is �very sorry to hear D. Rutledge�s health is likely to be so delicated tell John to write me soon and let me know if he has seen a John Lynch� and as well that �he is very sorry to hear that you did not get in soon enough for Martha Dollard�s wedding as I have no doubt you would have enjoyed yourself very much.� He then informs her that �Abraham Amos� negro woman Easter and her husband Wm. Bosley had Runaway last saturday night.� He makes no further comment on this. Finally he finishes with pleasantries and implores her to �give my love to Mother and all inquirious friends tell Martha Jane to behave pretty and be good girl and believe me to be your affectionate Husband. John W. Rutledge.� The letter is 4 pages in length one long sheet folded in half and written on both sides. The front cover has the letter address written: Ms. Julia Ann Rutledge Moormans Campbell County Virginia It is in a very legible handwriting black ink with minimal smudging. The letter shows a good bit of wear from aging and folding and there is a good deal of discoloration of the paper but this does not impede any legibility of the handwriting. There are also a few small holes in the paper but only one hole is in the place of a word and that word can easily be assumed. This is a lovely document. Background: John Wheeler Rutledge was born May 7 1800 in Harford Maryland and his wife Julia Ann Rutledge n�e Ward was born May 2 1808 in Campbell Virginia. They were married September 30 1826. John died in 1873 and Julia in 1889. They had six children together born between 1828 and 1843.; Manuscript; Folio - over 12" - 15" tall; KEYWORDS: KEYWORDS: ANTE BELLUM ERA HISTORY OF JOHN WHEELER RUTLEDGE JULIA ANN WARD RUTLEDGE BALTIMORE HARFORD MARYLAND CAMPBELL VIRGINIA PRE CIVIL WAR ERA LOVE OF A HUSBAND 19TH CENTURY AMERICA FIRST 100 YEARS OF THE UNITED STATES AMERICANA HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL ANTIQUIT� CONTRAT V�LIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO D�ANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANOSCRITTO CARTA ANTIG�EDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL . unknown‎
