England 1870s. Hardcover. Very Good. England Kent and Norfolk counties: c. 1871-1874. 8vo 175 x 115mm; 61 numbered pages in the hand of Charles W. Prescott detailing his various hunting excursions around the Kent countryside. Prescott�s ownership inscription on front free-endpaper is dated 1871. His entries are easily read and cover Prescott�s adventures on hunting hares with a skulk of foxes writing �Found another in the same field ran her straight back to Old Park round the pond and the pack hunted her beautifully�.� �Dec. 16� 1871. The hunts took place over sprawling village and countryside or as he describes �hop-gardens� hills and �ploughs� of land in the Herne Bay area of Kent England. Many entries are headed by recognizable locations; Stroud Park Broomfield Hilsborough Wolston Heath and Chislet Mill and are dated with month and sometimes year. Only a portion of the way full his entries span about three years the first dated: �Oct. 19 �71 Stroud Park� and last �March 25 1874.� Contemporary black morocco marbled endpapers and marbled endpapers with original brass clasp faint splitting at lower hinge of first few leaves strengthened at endpapers corners rubbed otherwise in very good shape especially considering it was wielded around so much of the Kentish countryside. Prescott makes many personal anecdotes about his day noting things in his surroundings like �scent moderate� or adding his opinions �we could not kill I think we should have but the sun was too hot.� Prescott often ends the entries with jotting down the day�s weather as something like �very indifferent but as good as could be expected with a very cold east wind� or simply stating �Frost.� It is evident from Prescott�s personal asides that he was a vigilant huntsman quite dedicated to the task. Further personal glimpses reveal a record of his horses charming names including �Salt Fish� and �Molly Malone.� At the time Prescott was taking these notes Herne Bay area and the Kentish villages would have been teeming with people. The Victoria era was one of prosperity when elite English folk flocked to popular destinations to partake in their favorite pastimes. From 1873 on in the journal Prescott notes he was hunting with �Pytchley� by writing their name in parentheses. The Pytchley hunt is an organization originally based in Northamptonshire in formation as early at the 1630s. The organization is still active today. Pytchley�s website notes that from 1819-1873 right as Prescott began with Pytchley for one year the Althorp and Pytchley countries were hunted by one pack with a second pack established at Brigstock. Prescott was part of the famous hunt organization at a time when it was amid significant change and expansion. His notes may keep further clue of such growth. While the huntsman himself may be unknown to history the anecdotal evidence in Prescott�s diary gives us a glimpse of the Victorian man fond of his sport. <br/><br/> hardcover

Philadelphia: Andrew Bradford 1737. 4pp. illustrated with two woodcuts in the masthead and four maritime woodcuts in the text. Folio printed on a single folded sheet. Minor foxing and edge wear marginal stabholes along central vertical fold two short repaired horizontal tears. Very good. A rare issue of the first newspaper printed in Philadelphia and in fact the first American newspaper to appear outside Boston. THE AMERICAN WEEKLY MERCURY was founded by the pioneering Philadelphia printer Andrew Bradford in 1719. As would be expected this issue contains news from both Great Britain and the colonies. The first page contains a Parliamentary dispatch regarding the production of iron in the American colonies "where it is capable of being produced in every respect equal in Goodness to the best Iron from Sweden." and a report of a shipwreck off the coast of Bristol. Also included is shipping news from Boston and Philadelphia along with almost twenty advertisements containing information on ships for hire runaway servants trade services debt notices real estate offerings and more. Most notable among the advertisements are three relating to slaves. The first advertises for sale "A Likely young Negro Man about Seventeen that has been in the Country some Years and had the Small Pox." The second seeks return of a runaway "Servant Man named Patrick Burk a Saddler by Trade.of small stature brown Complexion short black Hair mark'd with the Small Pox." The last advertisement in the paper touts for sale "Very good Houshold sic Goods of all sorts: Also divers young Negro Boys and Girls all Born here." Andrew Bradford was the fourth printer in Philadelphia and the son of William Bradford the first printer there and in New York. The younger Bradford became Philadelphia's sole printer when he returned there in 1713 and remained so until Samuel Keimer arrived in 1723. He immediately obtained the lucrative contract to print the colony's laws and produced the first collected volume in 1714. He also published works on his own account including almanacs religious works broadsides the second edition of CONDUCTOR GENERALIS and the present newspaper. Bradford published the MERCURY from December 1719 until his death in 1742 though it was continued by others until 1749. Issues of THE AMERICAN WEEKLY MERCURY or any early 18th-century American newspaper rarely appear at auction or in the market. Andrew Bradford unknown
