‎ISAAC S PEAR‎

‎1862 HANDWRITTEN ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT CIVIL WAR ERA DIARY OF AN OBSERVANT MANUFACTURER OF COTS AND BEDS FOR THE UNION SIDE WHO WOULD ONE DAY BECOME A NOTED MASSACHUSETTS LEGISLATOR‎

‎CAMBRIDGE BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS MA. Good. 1862. On offer is the 1862 diary of Isaac S. Pear owner of a Massachusetts factory and business manufacturing spring and cot beds and specialties in folding furniture. Pear speaks often of his day-to-day activities and his business which he writes have been negatively affected by the ongoing and bloody Civil War. The entries range from short concise entries of the weather to longer ones directly related to his business activities at the time. There are also reports of the Civil War battles won and lost and the general feeling of the people around him usually a mixture of exhaustion and anxiety. He obviously keeps tabs on the war especially as it reflects the effect on regiments and people from Massachusetts and his entries reflect this often. It seems about the middle of the year Pear’s factory begins making cots and beds for the Union Army. A call goes out in August for men to volunteer for the Union. For a few weeks Pear closes his store and factory at 2pm “in aid of recruiting.” He mentions that stores that did not close early were shut down by a mob. There also seems to be a dour attitude about the situation as Pear often reports the amount who have died in the war and the despondent look of the soldiers who return. The situation does not look good at all through Pear’s eyes. He also mentions people he knew by name who have died in the war. The ‘Memoranda’ and ‘Cash Accounts’ section of the diary contain a number of pages of detailed lists of items bought and paid for money received from clients at the store and money paid out to employees many of whom seem to be family. The book is approximately 380 pages of which there is writing in 300 or so. The cover is soft black leather with a wrap around portion meant to slide into a little loop however the loop no longer exists. It says ‘Diary 1862’ on the front. It shows a good bit of wear throughout. The pages show some discoloration and wear especially near the front and back but nothing that affects legibility. Pear wrote in pencil throughout the book and there is some smudging on certain pages that can affect legibility however these entries can be read with a bit of effort made easier under direct light. His handwriting is easy to read and legible throughout. The book is in overall good condition. Sample entries: “Friday February 7 1862. Quite and warm all day. The snow thawed considerably. News of the taking of “Fort Henry” on the Tennessee River read to-day. People feel elated. This evening took tea at Mrs. Williams.”; “February 8. Comes in pleasant but colder than yesterday. A little trade at store though still poor. The war affects business very much and all are anxious for a short but honorable termination.”; “March 19. Pleasant all day. The taking of Newberne N.C. continued. The 21st 23rd 24th 25th Mass. Reg’ts were in the action. Our cas. About ninety killed and 400 wounded.”; “June 19. Warm and pleasant all day. Busy at factory making spring cots for Army use.”; “August 5. Talk of a draft to fill the quota for 600000 more men for the army. Cities and towns offering bounties for volunteers for $100 to $200.”; “August 10. Visited Camp Cameron today.A large number of troops there under the new call of 300000 by President Lincoln.”; “September 3. All account go to show that the Rebels have an overwhelming Army and are determined to get into Washington and Maryland or die in the attempt.”; “December 13. John E. Noone was killed at the Battle of Fredericksburg this day aged 27 years.” Background: In 1852 Mr. Pear went to California. He traded in San Francisco three years and worked in the mines one year and then returned to Cambridge in 1857. The same year he entered his present business as manufacturer of spring and cot beds and specialties in folding furniture his factory being situated on Brattle street Boston. In the presidential campaign of 1856 Mr. Pear cast his vote in California for the free soil candidate John C. Fremont. In 1860 he voted the Bell and Everett ticket in 18564 for Lincoln and has been a republican ever since. Mr. Pear was a member of the common council with William E. Russell and in the board of aldermen the next two years. In 1887-88 he was a member of the legislature serving upon the committee on elections and giving valuable aid upon the committee on water supply in the taking of land around Fresh pond. He worked for the Australian ballot which was then secured. During his legislative career he was an intimate of the late Chester F. Sanger who occupied the adjoining seat in the house. Mr. Pear has been on the Republican City committee for the past dozen years. He is to-day a director in the Cambridge Mutual Fire Insurance company and also in the Colombian Cooperative bank. He is also an esteemed member of the California Pioneers of New England.; Manuscript; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF ISAAC S.

‎Isadore Sheldon Tucker‎

‎1912 Manuscript Diary of University of Nebraska Sorority Girl from a Prominent Entrepreneurial Nehawka Family‎

‎Nehawka Nebraska Lincoln Nebraska Knoxville Illinois. Good with no dust jacket. 1912. Softcover. On offer is the excellent 1912 diary of Isadore Sheldon Tucker 1894-1959 of Nehawka Nebraska. Isadore was the only child of Emma Banning and businessman Frank Pollard Sheldon. She was the niece of Republican Nebraska Governor George L. Sheldon who governed from 1907-1909. Isadore was 18 when she kept this diary. See BIO NOTES on Isadore Sheldon Tucker at the end of the listing. This diary follows Isadore through the second half of her senior high school year at St. Mary’s School near Knoxville Illinois and the first half of her freshman year at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln. Her diary provides a remarkable look behind the curtain during the most tender and vulnerable late teen years of a socially and academically successful young woman. Some excerpts follow and give a flavour of Isadore’s diary. She lives on campus at St. Mary’s and travels home by train when time allows: “I started to school today. Marietta King and Alice Farley got on the train at Omaha also. Mildred Adams was on there. We had a circus all the way. Met a lot of other girls in Galesburg” Jan 3 1912. “A missionary here. Gave the Sermon this morning. I took Adel Forbes Grey De La Mater Helen Sombait and Polly Lloyd to Idle Den tonight. I was Baptized this afternoon. Alice Farley and Etith Russel were also Baptized…” Feb 11 1912. “The Prom. I went with Mr. Dan Wheeler. Liked him real well. Had a fine programme. The Hall was awfully pretty. Decorated with Smilax and Wisteria. Used lattice work on windows and around piano. Dan Wheeler is a Beta at Knox. Esther went to the reception but not to the prom. Ida Stevens was sick and they stayed together. I had a wonderful time” Feb 17 1912. “We had our party up in Marg and Mary’s room. I stayed with Dot most of the night last night. It stormed hard. This A. M. She was all broken out. They think she has the measles. Took her to the infirmary. I have been writing her notes all day” Apr 26 1912. Isadore spends the summer at home in Nehawka. On September 23 she starts classes at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln. Her entries give the reader remarkable insight into the freshman experience particularly when she starts rushing sororities. It’s interesting to note that her regular trips home on the weekend wane as her social and academic lives flourish on campus. “.I had botany today also Latin. I lost a very valuable Note Book and had to write my Rhetoric theme over. Have it written now and am going to copy it now. I weant to go home if I can tomorrow. Ruth and Mrs. Coe and myself went to the Lyric this evening. Program was real good” Oct 4 1912. “Today I went to an Alpha Phi breakfast Delta Gamma luncheon Alpha O Cotillion and a Theta dinner…Galaideth wanted me to go to the Ag. Dance but I went to bed. The Alpha Phis had a Japanese Wedding” Nov 23 1912. “They have decided that there shall be no more calling and today I got written invitations to Tri Delt Kappa and Theta. Could accept all” Dec 3 1912. This diary clearly depicts this young woman at the beginning of what would be a successful career in her community. It also paints an unexpected picture of a confident headstrong and bright young woman who does not conform to expected social norms of the time. BIO NOTES ON ISADORE SHELDON TUCKER: Isadore Sheldon Tucker 1894-1959 was the direct descendant of a number of prominent American Revolutionaries such as Nathan Conant 1743-1820 a minute man at the Lexington Alarm and served as lieutenant under Colonel Jonathan Reed. Isadore attended the University of Nebraska Bachelor of Arts class of 1916 and pledged to Kappa Kappa Gamma Nebraska Sigma Chapter. In 1920 Isadore married Marion Tucker. They did not have any children though they did have cousins who lived with them for a time named Wilda and Cecile Mitchell interestingly they are listed as Marion’s children in his obituary. Isadore was a pillar of the Nehawka community sitting on the board of the library acting as Vice President of the Nehawka Woman’s Club an executive member of the Nehawka school board Chairman Treasurer and much more. Isadore’s father Frank Pollard Sheldon was a pioneer merchant and farmer who built Sheldon General Store in 1888. Isadore’s husband Marion managed the store. Tragically Sheldon General Store burnt to the ground on July 15 1959. Isadore would die only eight days later on July 23 1959. Whether there was a connection between the fire and Isadore’s death is unknown. Measuring 6.0 inches by 3.5 inches this diary contains 365 pages plus memoranda. The diary is approximately 80% complete containing about 300 entries in the 365 day diary. The cover is an ox-blood leather. It shows wear at the corners but is otherwise in good condition. The binding and spine are in good condition as are the pages. The handwriting is legible.; Manuscripts; 24mo 5" - 6" tall; 365 pages; Signed by Author . paperback‎
