Edwin Flye Stetson and Mary Chapman Stetson
1873-1882 Archive of Diaries of a Student At Bowdoin College and Then Harvard Medical School Plus Diaries of His Future Wife
BOSTON MA DAMARISCOTTA NEWCASTLE BRUNSWICK MAINE. Good with no dust jacket. 1873. On offer are six 6 original handwritten diaries belonging to Edwin Flye Stetson and Mary Chapman Stetson both of Maine. Edwin Flye Stetson 1853-1924 was born in Damariscotta Maine to Abner Stetson a shipbuilder and Betsey Riggs Stetson. He was educated at preparatory schools and graduated from Lincoln Academy before entering Bowdoin College in 1874. He attended Bowdoin for his freshman and sophomore years before transferring to Harvard Medical School in the fall of 1876. In 1883 Edwin married Mary Chapman 1856-1944 of Newcastle Maine. They would have four children together: Helen 1884 Rufus Edwin 1886 Grace Lunt 1891 and Mary Elvira 1894. Edwin Flye Stetson's diaries cover 1873 1874 1875 and 1877. In 1873 Stetson is a student at we presume Lincoln Academy in Newcastle Maine. In 1874 he completes his secondary education and even comments forlornly on the end of his time as a school boy on July 1 1874: Sitting out
the last time I will ever sit here as a schooler most likely
good bye old house school days where are all over here. He begins his education at Bowdoin in the fall of 1874 after a false start getting left behind on his first attempt to go to Brunswick ME on September 23 he finally arrives at his dorm on the 25th. He writes of his time at Bowdoin from Sept-Dec 1874 and throughout his 1875 diary. By 1877 Stetson is living in Boston and attending Harvard Medical School. Mary Chapman's later Stetson diaries cover 1880 and 1882. She would marry Edwin in 1883. In 1873 Edwin is a 20-year old student we believe at Lincoln Academy. Some excerpts follow: February 12th Cut wood a little while today. Go over to the hall in the afternoon and helped fix it up a little for the great ball Friday night. Everite has gone to Augusta and I have got to stop in the store tonight. In June he takes a trip to St. Johns on a ship and spends a few months camping and relaxing for the summer. June 23rd and 24th Start for St. Johns this morning. I am tired of riding. Wish I was there
.Arrive in St. Johns 7 oclock this morning. Go up to the Victoria Hotel to breakfast. Stay in the ship all day with Wilder. Like it. Think I shall run across to L. With them. Go up where the folks are tonight. Turn in at 10 oclock happy. July 2nd Father called me at 4 oclock this morning. Devil of a hurry as usual. Boat starts from B. At 6 oclock. Arrive in Rockland at 12 m. Get home 3 oclock.Have a gay time. I tell ye fine bedfellow. He returns to school in September 1873: Finish sawing pine wood this forenoon. Get some in. Sent ma the note tonight. Dance in the hall. Dont go. Sobered down quite an old man now. Things that I once loved I now hate and things that I once hated I now love. Whiskey &c. . 1873 is written almost entirely in pencil and there has been some serious smudging on some days entries. This is not too common but for the couple days smudged over they cannot be comprehended fully. 1874 is much the same as the previous diary recordings of his day-to-day tasks and life experiences often dealing with girls drinking school and friends. He begins school at Bowdoin College in Brunswick Maine in the fall of 1874: February 12th Our annual ball tonight. The best time I ever had. Home at 5 oclock. We go over and sit and smoke with Jones until ½ after 6. Home do my work and turn in. September 26. Got my books today and fooled around a little. Went down to Dunnings to tea tonight but dont like much
. October 15. School adjourned this PM on account of the fair. Eve and I went over. Joined the Society tonight. Heard from Mother today
became a member of the Zeta Psi Society tonight 2am
. November 18. A new member in the freshman class. Purrington entered today or rather came today got his ticket last year. Class meeting again for election of officials as split before. In 1875 Stetson is completing his freshman year and beginning his sophomore year at Bowdoin College in Brunswick Maine: January 9th Started for school today in a snow storm. Got here all night but am everlastingly lonesome homesick for anything you please. January 12th I have studied like the very-D. Today and taken a dead for it. If it wasnt for the corks of the thing Id pack my books send them home and strike for parts unknown to man or east. Im fairly discouraged. If I had a drop of the old creature I believe Id indulge a little. In college Edwin is sometimes struggling homesick lonely and dead broke. He writes once that one Cant say that I have had a very good time outside of home In the summer his parents and his brother Abner visit him. This doesnt help too much though. July 27th & 28th Ab came down this afternoon but wouldnt stay. He has been at home now over a week and I am unable to read him. I fear he has changed mightily or else he is acting it
. Picnic today. Dont care much about it but must go. Wish I hadnt gone. Never had a much poorer time. Wish I had gone when I had a good mind to Oh! Dear! Things are not just as I would have them but when will they ever be different Edwins last diary is in 1877 written in Boston Massachusetts where he is attending Harvard Medical School. He is doing better at Harvard obviously studying very hard but seeming to enjoy the struggle. January 21 1877. In the last 84 hours I have slept 6 tried to sleep today but could not. March 1 Worked in the lab until 11. After lecture in anatomy went down to the store and got my collars came home and studied on anatomy until supper time. Down to dissecting room this eve then Rob & I went down to Millers. He attends classes on Chemistry Physiology Anatomy and others. He is incredibly studious during this time: Studied till 11 - a very pleasant day - down to Chemistry - studied till after 2. The entries thin out a bit by the end of the year probably due to end of year exams. There is one entry from another time that Edwin has added in about his fathers death: November 4th 1878. Monday. Father died at 1.45 P. M. Today. I arrived on the 4 P. M. Train. Marys diaries begin in 1880. She spends much of the year in school and in the summer takes a trip out to Iselboro Maine: February 17th Pleasant. School all day. Got real tired and am fairly sick this eve. I stretched out on the sofa and was thankful that Uncle Billie did not come. Mamma is not very well either. But we are very happy at being all together in our bright little home. Saw Addie. April 28th Pleasant and warm. We began school at 8 this morning and let out at ten as to attend Mr. Frenchs funeral. The remains were placed in the Hall. He looked very natural. The Masons buried him. They looked very nice and there were a great many. Papa was among them. Luda came home to dinner with me. Went to school this P. M. Mr. Thurlow tried experiments. Went over town got my dress. Had quite a time. Mary was extremely ill during the middle of the year. She explains her illness which lead to a gap in her diary entries. By the time she begins writing again she is back to her old self: May 2nd 1880. Something did happen. I was taken sick that very eve that the last page was written and have had a long drag of six weeks been very sick with fever and been badly poisoned and salirated by Dr. Rob. No one knows what I have suffered but myself. I will pass over the next six weeks in silence since I only lay in bed. Everybody was as good as possible. July 31st Seaside House. Quite pleasant. Got up early. Had to hurry to get to the boat at 8. All came to Isleboro where we were to stop a week. We enjoyed the sail down the river. This is a pretty place about thirty regular boarders. A very good hotel cottages and tents look pretty. We spent the P. M. Tramping up on the hill. Sat on the beach this eve with Joe and Nellie. I think we will have a pleasant time here. November 1st Pleasant. Examination at school. I got very indignant at Mr. Kelley for adjourning school to go to Waterville to vote and refused to close the school for him. I could not help it. He went off in such a mean way. I am sorry tho that I did not accommodate him but I was as right as he was. November 3rd Pleasant. I opened school at half past nine and when Mr. Kelley came we had a strong discussion. I was provoked and so was he. I wish I had not meddled with him at all since he is little he cannot take an explanation or talk without arguing. Home this eve. The Republicans have got their 329. Garfield. I am sorry for the country. Marys 1882 diary is similar. She continues with her studies is very active in church and school politics and seems to be a generally pleasant young woman. Though this is the oldest diary in the archive it does not yet mention her meeting Edwin and it is uncertain when and how they would meet. Marys diaries are considerably smaller than Edwins and her handwriting can be occasionally quite small and cramped but this does not inhibit comprehension too often. These diaries would be an exceptional addition to the collection of anyone interested in Maine's history 19th century medical education 19th century Bowdoin College or Harvard or the experiences of men and women prior to settling down to form a family. Edwins 1873 diary is about 3/4 full of entries but the 1874 1875 and 1877 diaries are completely full of handwritten entries of a mostly easily comprehensible and clear script. For Marys diaries the 1880 diary has entries everyday until May 3rd and then there are blank pages until early June. After June 7th Mary is faithful to the diary and there are full entries until the end of the year. Mary's 1882 diary has steady entries up to February 20th then blank until May 4th and then after that she keeps her diary intermittently filling about 50% of the pages for the rest of the year. Most of the diaries have other papers and ephemera either stuck in between pages or in the little pouches in the front and back of the diary. These are mostly receipts for medical supplies and medicines as well as some short letters. Diaries range in size from 4x3 inches to 7.5x3.5 inches. They are overall in Good condition with some more age-worn than others. Pages and covers all appear to be intact some loosening of spines but no significant separation.

EDWIN FLYE STETSON
1876 Diary of a Future Doctor Detailing His Education At Bowdoin College in Brunswick and Harvard Medical School in Massachusetts
Bowdoin College Brunswick Maine Me Harvard Medical School. Good with no dust jacket. 1876. On offer is a super original 1876 manuscript diary handwritten by student Edwin Flye Stetson 1853-1924 while he was completing his sophomore year at Bowdoin College and then transferring to Harvard Medical School to complete his education. Stetson was born in Damariscotta Maine to Abner Stetson a shipbuilder and Betsey Riggs Stetson. He was educated at preparatory schools and graduated from Lincoln Academy before entering Bowdoin College. In 1883 Edwin married Mary Chapman 1856-1944. Stetson entered Bowdoin in 1874 and was meant to graduate from in the class of 1878 but left Bowdoin at the end of his sophomore year. He entered Harvard in fall of 1876 and graduated with the Harvard class of 1879. Dr. Stetson practiced medicine in Indiana from 1879-1885 and then moved back to Maine practicing in his hometown of Damariscotta until he retired due to poor health. Dr. Stetsons son Dr. Rufus Stetson graduated from Bowdoin in 1908 and went on to specialize in blood transfusions in New York City. This diary covers the second half of Stetsons sophomore year at Bowdoin January-April 1876 his summer working at a physicians office and then his move to Massachusetts on September 24 1876 and his first semester as a student at Harvard Sept-Dec 1876. Interestingly at the end of his sophomore year at Bowdoin Stetson is uncertain whether he will return even once he returns home for the summer: .Is this my last full day at Bowdoin. I hope not surely
April 3 1876. .I suppose I have made my last recitation at Bowd. Started for home at 3
April 4 1876. I wish I could decide about going back to Bowd
April 7 1876. As we know he will ultimately decide to say goodby to Bowdoin and attend Harvard a few months later. It is neat to know with hindsight that the next generation of Stetson doctors would graduate from Bowdoin only 32 years later. At Harvard he describes many experiences in the medical school such as attending autopsies. Throughout the diary Stetson proves himself to be a social active man of many interests involved in a fraternity and with many friends and a packed work schedule. He writes daily and provides enough detail to get a clear picture of his life as a medical trainee across two states. The 7.5 x 3.25 inch leather 100 page diary written in pencil filled for the entire year with the day to day activities studies socializing making for a fascinating look at the training of this young man. Diary is in overall G condition save for normal signs of aging with all pages spine and covers intact. ; Manuscript; 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF BOWDOIN COLLEGE EDWIN F.

EDWIN GILBERT
EARLY 20TH CENTURY RELIC OF A TOWN AND FAMILY BEING A SCRAPBOOK OF NEWSPAPER CLIPPINGS LETTERS AND DRAWINGS PERTAINING TO THE LIFE AND TIMES OF THE GILBERT FAMILY IN CHESTER COUNTY PENNSYLVANIA
CHESTER COUNTY PENNSYLVANIA PA. Fair. 1925. On offer is a unique and interesting book from the early part of the 20th century. The book is a combination of a students mathematics notebook pages full of drawings and doodles and a scrapbook of newspaper clippings letters and ephemera relating to the authors hometown of Chester Pennsylvania and his family. The book seems to have been put together by a man by the name of Edwin Gilbert. There are references to him in newspaper clippings and letters pasted in the book. The book seems to be a tribute to his family and their life in Chester County Pennsylvania. The newspaper articles and clippings present a wide variety of topics throughout a number of years as early as 1908 and as late as 1942 with most of the dates centering around the 1920s. The clippings include articles about Gilbert family members and friends Sugartown Public School Association programs poems hymns and articles of general interest concerning Chester County Westchester and other areas of Eastern Pennsylvania that the Gilbert family concerned itself with. The book that the articles and everything is pasted on may have been the mathematics book of Edwin Gilbert when he went to school. There are 38 pages of math and possible surveying numbers visible and many many pages where the articles and clippings have been pasted over the mathematics pages. One page of the mathematics part refers to Willistown in Chester County Pa. likely from the 1800s or earlier. There are also 12 pages of pencil sketches of houses trees bridges fields cemeteries and other scenes as well as doodles of animals and smaller scenes. The book is approximately 120 pages in length and measures 8.5" x 13.25. The cover is marbled paper over binders board and shows some wear and tear. The spine is more affected showing significant tearing and missing its bottom quarter. The pages are overall good showing some discoloration especially where they have come in contact with newspaper. The handwriting for the mathematics portion is in good condition with little fading or smudging. Many if not most of the pages have detached from the binding. This is an excellent original early family and town town genealogy.

EDWIN H CHAFIN
1881 & 1914 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DIARIES OF A RURAL UPSTATE NEW YORK FARMER AND THEN LATER A SENIOR CITIZEN CASHING HIS PENSION CHECKS
ADAMS WATERTOWN NEW YORK NY. Very Good. 1881. Leather. On offer is a fascinating pairing of original handwritten diaries once belonging to Adams New York man Edwin H. Chafin. One handwritten diary records the life activities and commerce of a young Mr. Chafin in 1881 and then 33 years later we have his 1914 diary. Like bookends it is very intriguing to read and compare the activities and duties of a man in his 30s he reveals his wife is 63 in 1914 thusly 30 in 1881 and then read of his more frequent church going and pension collecting three decades later. Local collectors and historians and genealogists will find a unique prospect of research in this personal history spanning the 19th and 20th centuries. ; 24mo - over 5" - 5¾" tall; Sociology Ageism Age Studies Aging Genealogy Personal Memoir Handwritten hand written autograph autographs signed letters document documents manuscript manuscripts writers writer author holograph personal Americana Religion Pioneer Florida FL Education ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT VÉLIN MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT . hardcover

EDWIN THOMAS
1911 ORIGINAL HANDWRITTEN EAST TO WEST TRAVEL DIARY OF A NEW YORK MINING ENGINEER
NEW YORK TO SAN FRANCISCO. Good. 1911. Full-Leather. On offer is the remarkable original manuscript travel diary and charming relic of early 20th century Americana handwritten by Edwin Thomas who was a member of the American Institute of Mining Engineers and the diary covers his journey from New York out west to go to the Meeting of the Engineers in 1911. Over ten 10 pages Thomas does a super job writing a very nice account of seeing the Grand Canyon seeing Indians seeing the "Suicide Bridge" in Chicago and much more. Here are some snippets: Catasauqua Left home 12:35 Dale and Helen Wilson accompanying us to station. I have been peculiarly ill for about 2 weeks but have been reserving strength for this trip and started out very encouragingly I am happy to surf. Felt a wonderful sense of relief as I pulled out west-ward for my great Has been I would be compelled to give it up. Arrived in Chicago twenty minutes late. Mr. Sowders was at the station to meet Ed. We hired a Pierce Arrow Car and had a most beautiful ride through part of the most attractive part of the city. The pleasantest part being along the Lake Front where there were many beautiful home
.The driver called our attention to Suicide Bridge where many have ended their lives. There is some one on guard day and night but in spite of this over five hundred are said to have jumped over board. Later Ed took us to the annex which was most fascinating. It was really luxurious and we saw the real life of Chicago. After roaming about for an hour seeing the sights gay men and women etc we drove to the Dearborn Street station where I at once recognized a member of the Engineers. Left Chicago late on account of Mr. and Mrs. Pierce and daughter who failed to make connections on account of a wreck. Made a few minutes stop at La Junta just long enough to get a breath of fresh air and lake a part at the granite log house with its fascinating fire places and surroundings in general. At 11 AM we drew into Albuquerque New Mexico. Where we had fifty minutes. The station and Indian room was most interesting. Finding it very warm I retired to my state room to be comfortable. By doing this I missed seeing the Indian Village at Laguna which I regretted exceedingly. Most of the passengers climbed to Adok village and returned most enthusiastic. In one house I am told they saw a sewing machine lace curtains and everything was most emaculate. The El Tovar Grand Canyon of Arizona Oct 3.
We had a long monstrous ride but when we reached our destination we felt doubly repaid. We lunched on the rocks over looking this grand chasm which is indescribably wonderful. A thing most thrilling and when once seen can never be forgotten. The view here not only extends across this wondrous abyss but far beyond into the painted desert. We saw where they have removed copper. Our first stop was at the Thor's Hammer of which I have a post card. I had heard much of the Canyon but to see it ones self is the only way to realize and appreciate its wonderful grandure. As I stood on the brink of this wonderful panorama which never looks to be the same for there are incessant changes caused by the different lights and shadows. I was told the distance across is from ten to thirteen miles. It is more than 6000 feet below the level of the plateau. We wandered into the Hopi House to watch the Indian women and men dance as well as little wee Indians who looked eagerly for dimes and nickels. Their song and dance soon grows monotonous and we remained but a short time. The El Trovar is most attractive. It is a long low rambling rustic but solidly built house. Its nature boulders and pine logs adds to its architecture
.The most expert basket weavers and pottery makers are found here." The are a number of pieces of ephemera included with the group related to the meeting: manuscript Itinerary giving Thomas the Schedule from September of 1911; very nice illustrated menu from a Luncheon from October 15; menu for a Dinner on October 5th at the Sierra Madre Club; Official Program for the American Institute of Mining Engineers at the St Francis Hotel 1911; several postcards.

New York: Charles Scribners 1939. 248pp/illus Egerton traveled extensively through the French Cameroons while working under Bronislaw Malinowski. His travels took him through Douala Yaounde N"kongsamba Edea Ebolowa Kribi and Bangangté. This is a fascinating account of those travels and in particular his long stay with N'Jiké II the native king and his 80 wives. He describes in detail the customs way of life beliefs activities etc. of the native King and his peoples including a visit to a group of lepers. He also provides many excellent photographs to complement his narrative. When Egerton told a friend of his intended travels the response he received was a bellowing - "Anyone who would go to the French Cameroons for pleasure would go to Hell for pastime." Clean. First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Charles Scribners hardcover
