[MANUSCRIPT - PARAGUAY RIVER].
Discripças do Rio Paraguay en 1794. Description of the river Paraguay in 1794.
Paraguay and/or Brazil 1794. 34 x 22 cm. Stitched through 2 single holes only one remains intact. Written in brown ink in a very legible late 18th-century cursive. 1 1 blank 12 2 blank pp. A contemporary unpublished and unrecorded Portuguese manuscript describing the Paraguay River and the lands rivers and territories adjoining including the location of former Jesuit Missions. It is written within the context of the Portuguese-Spanish dispute over the frontier between Portuguese Brazil and the Spanish colonies and focuses in particular on the upper reaches of the river which at that time still remained relatively unknown. The Portuguese under the governorship of Luis de Albuquerque 1739-97 had recently in 1778 established the towns of Albuquerque today Corumbá Laredo Villa María today Cáceres Casalvasco and Salinas. These new establishments and their locations on the Paraguay River are mentioned here. The terms of the 1777 Treaty of San Ildefonso between Portugal and Spain directed that a Portuguese-Spanish delegation be sent to the Paraguay River region to determine a definitive border between the territories. The Spanish delegation arrived in 1781 under the command of the military officer and naturalist Félix Manuel de Azara 1746-1821 and waited in Asunción in Paraguay for the Portuguese. The latter in the end never arrived but the Spanish delegation remained in the region until the 1790s Azara until 1801 exploring and measuring the region as well as handling the ongoing disagreements with the Portuguese over the demarcation. This Portuguese description of the River Paraguay is undoubtedly connected to these ventures though whether it is a contemporary translation into Portuguese of a Spanish survey or a survey of the river carried out by the Portuguese themselves is uncertain. It is however the only known copy of an unpublished description of the River Paraguay and it describes in detail the little-known upper regions of the Paraguay River.With a crossed-out annotation on the title-page the title-page and the last blank leaf are somewhat water stained. The paper is otherwise uniformly toned and showing some occasional foxing the edges of the leaves are somewhat frayed slightly affecting the text at the head of each page. Overall in good condition. unknown

[MARITIME -- COLUMBIA RIVER DAM]. GRAY, J[ohn] H[enry] D[ix].
A free highway. Speech of . . . in The Senate of the State of Oregon on Joint Resolution No. 1.
Salem OR: n.p. 1887. 8vo. 6 2 pp. Self-printed softcovers & title minor shelfwear dustsoiling still a VG bright copy from the library of Caroline Augusta Gray Kamm 1840-1932 noted socialite and philanthropist in Portland built home for poor women & girls with the YWCA and was daughter of PNW pioneer William H. Gray 1810-1889 who traveled to the Lapwai Mission in Lewiston ID in 1836 where he was the Nez Perce secular agent and she subsequently later married Jacob Kamm 1823-1912 pioneering Oregon steamship builder industrialist entrepreneur and co-owner/operator of the Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Co. First edition of this scarce speech delivered by J.H.D. Gray 1839-1902 who was the first Euro-American “White†male child born west of the Rocky Mountains after his pioneer father William Henry Gray 1810-1889 came West with Dr. Marcus Whitman in 1836. This speech was one of the earliest proposals to construct a “large iron gastron†dam immediately above the Dalles filled with heavy timbers to back up enough water so that the treacherous Celilo Falls could be deepened and enable continuous navigation on the Columbia River. Largely due to financing political will and the Herculean engineering obstacles this dream would not reach fruition until March 10 1957 when the floodgates of The Dalles Dam were opened 70 years later. J.H.D. Gray first began working for his brother-in-law Jacob Kamm’s Oregon Steam & Navigation Co. in 1858 and ran sternwheelers from Celilo Falls to Lewiston ID to the Owyhee Crossing and onto the Snake River. After losing his hand he began operating the sternwheeler U.S. Grant between Astoria and Ilwaco and in 1886 was elected to the Oregon State Senate. No copies in Worldcat. n.p.], paperback

[Mississippi River]; [Niagara]; [Nichols, Harley DeWitt]
Artist's Sketchbook of the Upper Mississippi River and Niagara Falls
1882. Hardcover. Very Good. Mottled black cloth backed in ornately gilt-ruled black calf; oblong 184 x 132 mm; contains 25 pencil drawings most of them titled and dated. It includes Fort Snelling; Minnehaha Falls; Oak Drive in White Bear Lake; a boat on White Bear Lake; St. Anthony's Falls in Minneapolis; Lake Minnetonka; Wabasha St. Bridge; an Old Brewery in St. Paul; Shanty-ville; Shelter Island New York; Goat Island; plus 3 portraits a bonfire scene and other views of the upper Mississippi River Niagara Falls and St. Paul Minnesota. Boards detached and spine perished; a few leaves loose and laid-in. Skilled work most of it on one side of the leaf therefore removable and suitable for display. <br/><br/>Harley DeWitt Nichols 1859-1939 was born in Barton Wisconsin. He began his education in art as early as 11 years of age. His first job putting his talent and training to use came in the form of an apprenticeship with the Milwaukee firm Marr & Richards where he stayed for 3 years drawing and engraving on wood. The subsequent years included many moves from Milwaukee to Chicago and later to New York where he studied at ASL and was encouraged by Professor Packard to pursue a career as an illustrator at a European school. Nichols left for Munich in October 1885 to attend the Royal Academy where he studied under Heckel became a member of the American Club and socialized with Carl von Marr the clubs president. He went to London for a little while and worked as an illustrator. By 1893 hed returned to New York working mostly in advertising and illustrating for Harpers Weekly and Century magazines. He helped organize the New York Water Color Club. Nichols didnt curb his parapatetic lifestyle until he moved to Laguna Beach California in 1894. The art community in Los Angeles was in its infancy but he got a teaching job at the Echo Mountain summer school and he was inspired by the scenery of Yosemite Monterey San Juan Capistrano and other locations in southern California. He stayed in Laguna Beach until his death in 1939. hardcover
