DAVID BUEL Jr
1857 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT AUTOBIOGRAPHY HANDWRITTEN BY ONE OF TROY NEW YORK'S MOST PROMINENT CITIZENS OF THE EARLY 19TH CENTURY
TROY NEW YORK NY. Good. 1857. On offer is a super original manuscript autobiography handwritten by Mr. David Buel Jr. who retrospectively recorded his memories and anecdotes etc. in 1857 a mere three years before his death. The journal is a fascinating detailed sketch of his family travel life events genealogy etc. starting with his birth in October 1784 through 1830s but we note 1853 references on the last page. He writes of being a member of the Constitutional Congress of 1821 his mother's death in 1826 a voyage to Savannah on the Steam Boat George Washington travel to Martinique and Nevis in 1812 and much more. The 8" x 10" leather bound lined ledger book has narrative on the first 40 pages. Bumping to extremities. Some loosening to hinges. Marbled endpapers. Overall G. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES: One online source provides: Hon. David Buel Jr. Born Litchfield Conn. Oct. 22 1784. Died in Troy. N.Y. August 16 1860. Mr. Buel's obit stated: "For more than a generation says the Troy Daily Whig Judge BUEL has been one of the best known and highly esteemed citizens of Troy. Prominent at the Bar he was as well for many years very active and efficient in all public concerns in both city and country. He always enjoyed public confidence and was most faithful and devoted to any cause which enlisted his energies. In 1821 he was a member of the Convention which revised the Constitution of this State. He distinguished himself in that body in the discussion of several important questions. He held the office of Judge of the Court of Common Pleas for several years receiving the office first from the old Council of Appointment. Ill health obliged him to resign this position in 1827. Spending some three years in the South soon after in pursuit of health he returned and devoted himself to his profession avoiding public life. In 1842 he was appointed one of the State Regents of the University which office he held at the time of his death. We cannot enumerate the various positions of honor and trust connected with business charitable and religious interests which the deceased held in later years. They were numerous and every duty belonging to them was discharged with rigid fidelity. In religious faith he was an Episcopalian and for many years to the time of his decease he was senior Warden of St. Paul's Church. Judge BUEL was born in Litchfield Conn. Oct. 22 1784. His father DAVID BUEL moved to Troy in 1798 and resided here until his death in 1836. DAVID Jr. entered Williams College in the Fall of 1802 and graduated in 1805 and soon after began the study of the law at Albany in the office of DAVID JONES where his fellow-students were JOHN C. SPENCER and WHEELER BARNES; He concluded his studies in the office of ABRAM VAN VECHTEN. He commenced the practice of the law of Troy in 1809 and remained an industrious laborer in the profession until 1854 when failing health compelled him to abandon it. Though for a long time feeble under the weight of years it was only last week that his last illness was deemed of an alarming nature. He endured all with patience and without complaint. His exit from the world was calm and peaceful -- so that the sleep of death could hardly be distinguished from the sleep of exhausted nature. Throughout his sickness he retained his consciousness and his eye of intelligence even when from bodily weakness he was unable to speak. The last public appearance of Judge BUEL was as Chairman of the meeting of the Bar called on the occasion of the death of the late JOB PIERSON."; Transcript; 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF DAVID BUEL CONTINENTAL CONGRESS TRAVEL LITCHFIELD STEAM BOAT GEORGE WASHINGTON CONNECTICUT AMERICANA TROY NEW YORK TRANSCRIPT MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS PERSONAL PERSONAL HISTORY MEMOIR MEMORIAL DIARY JOURNAL DIARIES JOURNALS LOG LOGS KEEPSAKE AMERICANA . hardcover

DAVID G BOYCE, SPECIAL FORCES CHAPLAIN
1966 - 1967 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DUTY JOURNAL AND PERSONAL DIARY OF A MUCH DECORATED SPECIAL FORCES CHAPLAIN SERVING IN VIETNAM
VIETNAM. Very Good. 1966. On offer is a very interesting original manuscript relic dated September 6 1966 through October 1 1967 of the Vietnam War and American involvement handwritten and typed by US Special Forces Chaplain David G. Boyce b.1928 - d. March 4th 2013. One part "Duty Log" and moreso a diary of all his movements and his personal thoughts regarding his service this is a very intimate personal history. There are even some movie plots he has imagined and poetry and songs - Boyce was quite a Renaissance man it appears! Using yellow legal pad paper originally handwritten the author changes over to a typed manuscript of 350 pages doing a superb job of recording names ranks operational duties and much much more. He does at times use blank spaces to be discreet and sometimes he admits he has forgotten the name. Here is a sample passage - spelling and typing mistakes intact: I remember the invitation of the Mike Force CO who is up here with a company guarding the camp while it is under construction. He and Sgt. Matthews the first sergeant had said to come on over and visit. I decided that if I dedn't get out that I would do just exactly that. I would go visit the Mike Force since I had now payed my visit to the Strike Force. I sat outside the team tent TOC for a while. Then I went inside and talked with Capt Horn CO. I told him my plan and gave him sixteen 16 of the Lubbock Texas "To a Soldier in Vietnam" letters- He said that he did not want to be abrupt but he had to leave for a meeting. We parted on this note. He went to his meeting and I went to gather my gear to go to Mike. Went outside and found that Sgt. Pederson was leaving. He said that he would give me a ride. He is E-7 acting team Sargeant. He took me down about 1700 to the Mike force location near the river- I dismounted and walked out into the woods. I saw the China Boy troops. They were obvisiuly Chineese. They kept pointing me farther back into the woods. Away from the road. Finally I came across two 2 Americans- It was Sgt. Leon and Sgt. Hoskins and Sgt. Leon came over and picked up my pack and took it for me over to the next object a half building 35 meters farther back. It looked like a half built house with posts and part of a back wall and about half of a grass roof with bamboo beams. This was the CP. Here I found the C.O. Capt. ----- Sgt. Matthews and Sgt. Lopey. I was given a very warm reception. It was the warmest that shave received since being in Vietnam. Even better than the one I received at Don Phuc mike force which was the best one that I had received up to that time. The warmth of their reception more than made up for the cold night that I was to spend there. I sat down and was introduced all around and told them that I remember Lopey from Bragg. He has a wife that is from Munich Germany and he now has orders to the 10th Group. Sgt. Leon is a dew and wanted to know why some of the ranking Chaplains are not ______. Sgt. Hoskins is called snake because he is very fearful of snakes. He is intrepid in battle is not afraid of death but he does not like snakes. The CO has orders to Fort Benning. He says that he is going "home". He knows Col. Stanly. He went through VW school with him and on one of their field problems he was point man one night and fell unto a 30 foot well. Sgt. Natthews is an old soldier with another couple to go which he will do in ROTC at _________ and hopes to continue there in ROTC after he retives. As a civilian the state pays half and federal pays half. Sgt. Hoskins has 23 years in Air _______ Since 1943. He was in the 519th Abn Bn that Gen. Yarbrough was in- Black Potch with the Red out line of a C-42 door and a resene parachute in the foor- He says that he will shortly retive and go to work in D.C. investigating welfare cases- His goal is to stamp out welfare- I sat down and they asked if I had eaten. I said no and told then that I wanted some of that pork and rice they had promised me. The served me with a big bowl of rice and pork with cooked cucumbers tasted like cooked turnips and a glass and a half of chocolate milk. It was a good meal because the fellowship was so good. I used several helpings of soy sauce to make it down and finished the entire bowl. Then we sat around batting the breeze which I usually don't enjoy but I did enjoy with them. Some one asked for the time and then some one said 1745. Shortly afterwards I need a watch to be more accurate there was a couple of explosions like a grenade heard off toward the river. Some one said that they are playing with grenades down there. Then there were more explosions and the sound an automatic weapon and some one called out four the Nungs Vee Cee! With that everyone started to scurry around. I was frightened so I took my cigar and put it is my mouth so that I would appear more calm than I was. I had a cigar because I had previously passed out cigars to Sgt. Matthews Sgt. Lopeg and Sgt. Leon- the CO and Sgt. Hoskins don't smoke- I put the cigar in my mouth and went over to my ruck sake and put on my tiger suit shirt I don't know whyand put on my webb gear. Next I dug out my 45 pistol and then had to hunt for the chips. I put a chip in but did not put a round in the chamber. Next I stood around trying to look calm with my cigar in my mouth. I went to the Nortor pit and watched then five the 60 MM nortors. They fived 5 had a misfire cleaved the barrel. I was very apprehensive as they cleaved the chamber and I tried to edge away without being too conspicuous. He finally cleaved it and began to fire some more. When he completed the fire mission the sound of firing died away and I thought that it was all over. I wandered back toward the CP trying to be as nonchalant as possible just as I reached the edge of the CP roof everything opened up all at once. I was frightened and the man standing next to me who was acting as my body guard told me to get in the hole that had been dug at the edge of the CP. I gladly got in. I thought that we were being over run because of the valume of fire power that was being put out. I pulled out my 45 and tryed to put a round in the chamber. It would not go. I pulled out the clip and all the bulled fell out. My Chineese body guard very calmly said "#10" and proceeded to take my clip and put the rounds in it while I helf his carbine. I than realized that I showed carry my carbine with me when I go out on field trips. It would be best to have a folding stock. He fixed the clip and I stock it in my weapon and put a round in the chamber and held the 45 on ready. I was expecting to see the VC any minute. My body guard then commented. "No VO". I couldn't see how this was possible but he said it several times with calmness and I began to be less frightened. I then got up out of my crotching position and sat on the edge of the foxhole. Again he saig "No V.C." and by now I began to believe him. With his words of assurane ringing in my lars I found the comrage to get up out of the fox hale and wander around. The firing was still going on but not with the first initial intersily. Behind the CP I found Sgt. Matthews firing the rocket launcher. He fired at least 4 or 5 rounds with the new self contained unit. The firing of the rocket launcher just about finished up the firing. A FAC came over. Sgt. Matthews wanted Francois to go down the road and locate China Boy 3 the CO & Sgt. Leon & Sgt. Hoskins & Sgt. Lepey. They would not come up on the radio. Francois did not seem inclined to go look. Soon they came in the CO and the ones who had gone out to investigate. The CO gave me a suvineer the tailfin off of a rifle grenade home made type that the local VC us. There had been 4 VC local type they had been firing at a jeep or trying to get in close enough to the New Camp for night _______ or trying for revenge on the Mike Force. As an informal critize it was pointed out that there were 4 VC. We did not get a one of them and in the process $5000.00 worth of ammo was expended. The heavy valume of fire at the end which had frightened me was the firing of their weapons out of frustration and out of just wanting to fire the weapons. Sgt. Matthews said that the time to be scarred is when you hear the "crack" of the bullets. Then you know that is incoming. Then is the time to be frightened- I realized that I had just about chewed the cigar into and also I realized that I was sweating out of fright. I threw away the cigar slobb and wiped my sweaty brow. Adding additional breadth to this personal account are more than a dozen photos many original of the writer who was the senior officer and the head of the Chaplain's Unit his colleagues and other Officers. Boyce we learn from a news clipping was a member of the Mecklenburg Presbytery Church of Charlotte North Carolina and distinguished as the first Presbyterian to be selected as a Special Forces Chaplain. He was also a jump master and fully qualified for the elite 3rd Special Forces Airborne Group. Further research regarding his military record list his military specialties which include an unusual and very intriguing record as Special Forces Officer Training Officer Chaplain and Parachutist. Research also notes many awards and decorations. Overall VG.; Manuscript; 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF VIETNAM WAR SPECIAL FORCES US ARMY VIET CONG SOUTHEAST ASIA NAM DAVID G.

Most of the writings are within a few years of 1858 but there are later notes and updates in other hands up to 1905. Here is the Table of Contents Mr. Young created: "Miscellaneous - Ague; Rattlesnake; Cure for Cough; Cure for Piles; Cure for Corns; Purify Rooms; Physic for Children; Dysentery; Antibilous Pills; Eye Water; Godfreys Cordial; Itch Ointment; Drink for Sick; Ague Pills; Hiera Piera; Hulls Physic; Hoopers Pills; Thompson's Powder; Thompson's Cough Syrup; Hair Oil; Hair Restorative; Diarrhea; Head Ache; Albetic Pills; Aloes & Ginger Pills; Aloes & Assafortida Pills; Aloes & Collocynth; Aloes & Myrrh; Assemic & Opium; Compound Assafortida; Compound Gallamum; Ammoniuret of Copper; Mercurial Pills; Opium Pills; Storax Pills; Compound of Rheubarb; Squills; Rheubarb; Compound Antimonial; Removing Stains; Cure for the bite of a Mad Dog; Cholera Mixture; Diarrhea Mixture; Ague Pills; Cholera Remedy; Take out grease spots" "Powders -- Aloes with Camilla; Aloes & Guaiacum; Aloes & ; Aloetic; Compound Asarabacca; Compound Carbonate of Lime; Chalk & Opium; Compound Ceruse; Compund Contrayerra; Ipecacium & Opium; Gallap Compound; Myrrh Compund; Opiate Compound; Scammony Compound; Scammony & Aloes Compound; Scammony & Calomel; Senna Compound; Sulphate of Alumina Compound; Pragacanth Compound; Over Heated Horses; in horses; Whooping Cough; Cancer; Scrofula; For Cough; Ointments -- Accitate of Lead; Nitrous Acid; Hogs Lard; Simple; Wax; Spermaceti; Spanish Flies; Infusion of Cantharides; Powdered Spanish Flies; Elemi Compound; White Hellebore; Quicksolver of Blue Ointment; Milder Mercurial; White of Quicksilver; Red Precipitate; Red Oxyd of Quicksilver; of Quicksilver; White Oxyd of Lead; Impure Oxyd of Zinc; Black Pepper; Tar; Resinous; Savine; Sub Acetite of Copper; Ammoniated Submuriate of Quicksilver; Sulphur."

DAVID MEYEROWITZ
1944 - 1945 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT WARTIME DIARY OF JEWISH COAST GUARD CADET ABOARD THE USCGC SASSAFRAS ON AID TO NAVIGATION AND U-BOAT DETECTION DUTY IN NEWFOUNDLAND AND THE NORTH ATLANTIC
PORT-AUX-BASCUE NEWFOUNDLAND NL CANADA. Good. 1944. On offer is the wartime diary of David Meyerowitz a Jewish cadet aboard the USCGC Sassafras. The diary is entitled by Meyerowitz Newfoundland Diary and details his time spent onboard the Sassafras performing Aid to Navigation ATON duties throughout. It begins: On october 24 1944 the Coast Guard ship SASSAFRASS pulled into the harbor of Port-aux-basque in Newfoundland. Aboard her were the regular crew and construction unit 192 which she had brought there and which I was a member of. This was that part of the world where I was going to spend six months or even more. We had come from Sydney Nova Scotia where we had been housed by the Royal Canadian Air Force for a period of two days. Sydney to me was like any other small town in the States - a main street - local prostitutes - familiar characters etc. I was surprised to find that most Canadians were quite similar to Americans in mannerisms speech and general demeanors; They differed in one aspect - their attitude or outlook seemed to contain an air of indifference and unenthusiasm but not to a great extent.From here it begins my diary of daily accounts of incidents observations and such. He keeps to his word. The diary is a faithful account of his life in Newfoundland first very interesting and curious then settling into a steady rhythm of short descriptions of work and longer entries devoted to off-time. He often comments on the locals near Port aux Basques and the rural and rugged life they live living off the harsh land. In Newfoundland the Sassafras mission was to install and maintain the powerful radio transmitters and receivers used to determine the position of a ship or aircraft. Called LORAN short for Long Range Navigation these radio-navigation devices were established at Mouse Island near Port aux Basques. The primary mission of all LORAN stations was to monitor U-boat activity and provide navigational aid to Allied vessels. Their operation was classified and the equipment was under 24-hour guard. November 7 1944. Tonight I have the watch in a lonely shack on a desolate hill overlooking the ocean. This has been one of my off-days which seems to occur at infrequent intervals.Being here is just the tonic to forget the whole damn crap. Other than the watch over the LORAN station it does not seem like Meyerowitz does much work. Often entries read like such: November 26 1944. A little work a little play. IN the evening - lounge around in the canteen.; December 13 1944. The usual day of work. A movie at nite. Uneventful.; 5 January 1945. Just another day again. The bad weather has started in again - snow rain and sleet. Stuck again tonight with the Dock Watch. There are also plenty of important days recorded. 7 December 1944. Today is Pearl Harbor Day - three years of war - although the unrestrained impatience about the war ending which was with me during my first year when I came into the service has subsided still I want again to get back into civilian life.; 12 April 1945. Tonight all of us were deeply shocked and overcome when we learned that President Franklin Roosevelt pass away. Just when we thought it was a winner - the radio reassured us that this terrible tragedy had taken place 10 minutes to 6 in Warm Springs Ga - 20 minutes after 7 here. A deep loss and affected me a great deal - Ill always relive the night when the universal calamity occurred - & at the same time news that Germany was on the verge of collapse - at intervals I am compelled to stop & concentrate on this tragedy. On April 23 Meyerowitz writes the final entry Well this is it - we have today - tonight - bursting with anxiety to get home - It has been a bad stay - And this ends my Newfoundland experience & diary - The end. The book is a small octavo format. It has held up very well with age. The cover is leather cover reads NCG 2105 / U.S. Coast Guard and is slightly curling in at the edges. The book is roughly 200 pages long with about 170 with writing. Almost all of the writing is in ink but there is very little smudging and Myerowitz writes usually in a clear and legible way. Background - The Sassafras was a C-Class 180 ft seagoing buoy tender constructed for the USCG by Marine Iron & Shipbuilding Corp. of Duluth Minnesota. The Sass was one of 39 tenders commissioned for duties that would include aids-to-navigation ice breaking search-and-rescue fire fighting law enforcement providing fuel and potable water and assistance to the National Oceanographic and Seismographic Survey.; Manuscript; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; KEYWORDS:HISTORY OF DAVID MEYEROWITZ USCGC SASSAFRAS PORT-AUX-BASQUE SYDNEY NOVA SCOTIA NEWFOUNDLAND UNITED STATES COAST GUARD WORLD WAR 2 IN NORTH AMERICA AMERICAN SOLDIERS IN CANADA AID TO NAVIGATION ATON DUTIES ROYAL CANADIAN AIR FORCE LORAN LONG RANGE NAVIGATION STATION U-BOAT MONITOR LAST YEAR OF WW2 USCG C-CLASS BUOY TENDER JEWISH SOLDIERS IN WW2 JEWISH CADET DEATH OF FRANKLIN DELANO ROOSEVELT NATIONAL OCEANOGRAPHIC AND SEISMOGRAPHIC SURVEY AMERICANA HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL AMERICANA ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT VÉLIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO DANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANOSCRITTO CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL . hardcover

Silcox's eagerly awaited biography of David B. Milne 1882-1953 tells the remarkable story of one of Canada's great artists and his work. This book has been very much a labour of love by Silcox a love for the work of the artist and an appreciation of his ideas. Lavishly illustrated and based on many years of research Painting Place provides a perceptive analysis of Milne's work both the paintings and the artist's voluminous and lively writings. The book balances words and pictures in a way that would surely have delighted its subject as it will its readers." "Milne's unique and striking images set him on a path of his own early in his life. He never sought fame or commercial success but in time curators sought him out critics hailed his work and knowledgeable collectors bought his paintings and prints. Most important of all he was a painter's painter acknowledged by other artists as an innovator of supreme ability an uncompromising master of technique and a creator of memorable paintings."--Jacket.
