Pritchard, Morris:
From the King's Marshall: A history of the Marshall family from the 12th Century to 1980. Early Descriptions of the United Kingdom, Adelaide, Goolwa, Hindmarsh Valley, Burra and Melbourne. (SIGNED BY AUTHOR)
VG no dj as issued. blue decorated boards are clean and crisptidy with faint bumps to corners. First Edition. prior owner's tiny book sticker to reverse of front board. signed and dedicated by author. Over 400 years ago, in the year 1560, the first traceable Marshall forebear of the author died at Little Tew, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom, this book endeavours to bridge the intervening years of family history to the year 1980. When beginning the necessary research for this story, the author already had in his possession many old documents and letters, dating back as early as 1810, which he had salvaged from his mothers home 20 years ago. With the assistance of a genealogist he was able to begin the Marshall story as long ago as the 12th century, with reference to a member of the Royal Staff of King Henry I, who is believed to have been an early family forebear. In dealing with ancestors over a period of 400 odd years, it has been necessary for the author to restrict the number of forebears written about at length. Those chosen for more detailed treatment in this work include John Marshall (1646-1735), the first Marshall to join the religious Quaker movement; Lucy Marshal, school mistress and poet (1811-1904) who emigrated to South Australia with her sister in 1850; Charles Stocker Morris (1851), journalist, poet, traveller and speculator' the authors grandfather who earns no good conduct marks for the way in which he treated his family; lastly, a branch of the Sturge family of U.K., with whom the Marshalls had an unusually close relationship over a long period of time. This book is LIMITED to 500 copies only. This copy being 275

PRIVATE GROVER PERRY DEERWESTER
1918 ORIGINAL WORLD WAR I MANUSCRIPT DIARY HANDWRITTEN IN INTIMATE DETAIL BY A SADLY TYPICAL FOR TIMES RACIST AT CAMP JACKSON SOUTH CAROLINA
CAMP JACKSON SOUTH CAROLINA FORT JACKSON. Good. 1918. On offer is a very interesting original 95 page manuscript relic of World War I being the diary of Private Grover Perry Deerwester Battery D 6th Regiment F.A.R.D. Field Artillery Replacement Depot of Bucyrus Ohio handwritten in incredible intimate and graphic detail. It appears that Grover 1888 - 1938 was the son of Commodore Perry Deerwester. The private is at Camp Jackson South Carolina in the Base Hospital and then the Convalescent Hospital. Deerwester on the one hand proves to be somewhat typical of the times and of the sort flinging racial slurs and his thoughts about being in this "hell hole" but he is also a super diarist giving the a long very sad description of a young man that hung him self in the hospital ward a sand storm which he almost did not survive about the men with venereal diseases and much more. The 2 ½" x 5 ½" book begins with over 2 dozen pages of names some autographs and addresses of some of his friends with notes as to what happened to them later on in life for example: "Timothy Dempsey 240 West 67th St. New York City. Gone over seas in O.A.R.D. from 6th regt. F.A.R.D. Edward H. Germit Napoleon Ohio. RFD #8 Box 55. Transferred from 6th Regt. F.A.R.D. to 4th Regt. Cook in Supply until sent back to Camp Sherman." Another rather startling note is crossed out and by it he writes "Deserter". The balance of 60 pages begin in July of 1918 and provide lengthy daily entries about the hospital and his antics and adventures. Here are some snippets: "My Experience in a sand storm. October 18th which I was on guard in the 6th Reg. The moon was shining thru the pines in the Gun Park. It was so light by the moon and the sky was clear. It was a beautiful southern night and as I walked my post I forgot about the war. I forgot that I was in the land of horn toads sand fleas and sand storms. I suppose I even forgot my general and special orders as I walked along on my post. I was thinking of home of my old hometown and the people who lived there. I thought of dad and mother and though how I'd like to surprise them by going home on pass. I was also thinking of my little blue eyed blondie. I wondered if they would all look the same as they did when I last saw them
I don't recall what relief was on that night anymore. I think it was the 3rd the watch from 10 to 12 P.M. I had Post No. 10 and was stationed the farthest away from the guard house and as I walked my rounds thinking over those cherished memories I noticed that a thick fog was gathering then a little breeze sprang up and I thought it was going to rain. I had charge of the gun park and we had to keep a strict watch on them. There were 56 pieces or guns in this park No. 10. Both French and American 75's and the guns and caissons were all covered with heavy tarpaulin covers. Ropes on the covers to tie them down with. It was only a few minutes till it was quite windy
.the air was full of sand and dust so thick that a man could hardly see. Not saying anything about what it meant to breath
.The storm covers a great territory and are much fiercer than our little whirl winds. I walked my post till I could hardly see and breathing seemed impossible and when the full blast struck I dispensed with general orders and everything else. I called "Corporal of the Guard No. 10 Relief" and repeated the call twice. I heard my calls repeated from other posts but no relief came. I didn't quit my post. I only stopped making the rounds. I took my 45 from its holster and put in a clip of 3 blanks and turned the blanks first for use. But I didn't use them for signal. I had no instructions to use them. So I held the pistol in my right hand gripped and ready to fire and took off my heavy overcoat and laid flat on the ground on left side and put my over coat over my head so I could breath and covered my pistol too. As I lay there in that fiendish storm I thought my wind pipes would burst. As I lay there I said my prayers and cursed that sunny southern land. From many a time I was caught in a storm but never one so fiendish as this one was. I thought to myself so long Ohio and so long my little Blondie
.I'll never see any of you anymore. I guess the gig is up for me and when relief came at last the storm was over and the moon was shinning brightly again
." He also relates how he almost shot his relief because his eyes were nearly swollen shut. He also tells of how his face had patches of blood and sand; he was relieved from duty and taken to the Infirmary. It takes an hour for them to get the sand all out of him and they let him sleep in the Regimental Police Sergeants bunk. They had to help him out of bed the next day and gave him a cold shower bath and rubbed him down sprayed "some kind of dope" up his nose and sprayed his throat and dropped some "liquid fire" into his eyes. 1918 "July 17th This date finds me still in the hospital still in ward H-3 under the care of Capt. Latin. I will be released from the hospital tomorrow morning or tomorrow July 18th some time. My old comrades of the Smoky City leave for overseas tomorrow morning at 6 O'clock. I trained for the same purpose of going over with this same bunch of Devil May Care lads and now I'll be getting out of the hospital in time to be transferred into some rotten outfit. Any civilized man would call that "Sho Nuff". Some were to pass the artillery exam for overseas. Some had venereal disease and some were flat footed like a duck. My old pal Hudson from N.Y was too short in one end
." "July 18th Today I will be released from this temporary purgatory on earth. God how happy a man should be to get out of this place alive. It isn't a fit place for the dead. No mentioning the living. Last night another lad ended it all by taking his own life. Oh! I could never do that never. I'd let them chop me up in 1 inch squares before I'd do that. A lad by the name of McGown from Ward H-4 next ward to ours or the one I was in. He had some kind of growth in his throat some thing like a goiter and the surgeons were going to operate on it in a few days and he refused them. Last night the 17th of July he committed suicide by hanging himself with a bed sheet. I don't know how he tore the sheet without his pals hearing him but he took a sheet from his cot and tore it into strips and braided these strips together forming a rope. The head of the hospital cot is about two feet to the top from the mattress. McGown tied the rope like a cord about his neck in a slip knot and then tied the other end to the head of his cot at the top and threw the covers over his head and this morning the orderly found him dead at 4:30 A.M. and his bunk mates never heard him struggle or anything from him last night
" "July 19th Oh! Yes. One important feature about this here Convalescent camp is that it doesn't matter as to your complexion. You may be red white black or blue and you are accepted here. The different races don't sleep in the same tent with the whites but the tents are side by side. One tent has white folks and the other black. You needn't worry if the cover of your nearest neighbors skin doesn't compare with yours of you don't like niggers you can find em from a "high yallow" to an octoroon. If you don't like that kind you can pick out a wop or guinea. The blacks fall in a line by themselves and start for the patient's mess hall which is a good half mile away from this camp and the whites fall in and march to the mess hall in charge of a N.C.O. Well when we reach the mess hall the walks are all screened in like a penitentiary and we must wait out side until these darn coons eat first. After the shines have had their mess the white birds go in and eat next. Every time we enter themes hall some one says "The American Eagle won't scream on skimmed milk." "July 21st The convalescent is the filthiest place I ever got into. Hope it won't be ling that I have to stay here. There are men here who have all kinds of diseases. Some are very contagious and some aren't. There are some here who are quarantined to their quarters who have that dread and very contagious disease called "Meningitis." Nearly every victim of this disease is a cripple after he gets over it if he ever does. I have seen many of the boys who have had it who are cripples for life. No operation can cure them. Many of them walk with a cane as their legs have been drawn crooked so that they can never walk straight again. Their days of soldiering are limited and they are handicapped for life. The men with this disease have their own quarters and bath rooms and they are not allowed to be out with any of the other men. There is one disease here that should be kept in a place by its self too that is the "venereal diseases". But they are not. They are allowed to be out with all the other men eat in the same mess hall bathe in the same bath house use the same toilets and all. In this way I think many a lad who is clean and tires hard to keep his body pure from these hellish diseases of a venereal nature are often a victim by contracting it from the others who have it. Where if these boys were kept in a separate place they wouldn't be exposing innocent lads to the dread of these awful diseases. These boys who have it are low down dirty damn slackers if they don't try to keep a clean lad from getting it." "July 23rd The bathroom is a little shack here about 8ft x 16ft. All classes bathe here. Once a week once a month or when ever they feel like it. Venereal's and all in the same latrine. I have never taken a bath here and thank God I don't have to. I take a bath every other night but not here. I go over to the hospital and get permission to take my bath there
.Every lad has a dread for this place. It is so much more like a prison then a detachment of the hospital. It seems more like the mouth of the infernal regions than a place of rest and quiet. We have no freedom here. We can not go to the canteen without falling into line and a N.C.O. takes us over and back again
." "August 6th Oh Boy! After mess today noon I get looked over by Dear old Captain Latin himself and two majors of the medical staff and maybe I'll get to go back to my old 17th this afternoon yet. Oh! Gee Oh! Gee! Gosh "Wow" whoopee. I hear mess call now. I hope this is my last feed of poor old rotten cantaloupe and dried up tomatoes
.I wish they would hurry up with that old buzz cart. Gee I'll bet the boys will wonder back at headquarters where I blew in from anyway. Wonder if there is any mail there for me. I haven't gotten but three letters all the time I was in the hospital and convalescent. Oh! Here it comes the Buzz car. We are off

PRIVATE HARRY WILSON WINN
1941 SUPERB ORIGINAL WORLD WAR II MANUSCRIPT RELIC OF BRITAIN'S NORTH AFRICA CAMPAIGN AGAINST ROMMEL'S AFRIKAKORPS BY A BRITISH PRIVATE WHO AUTHORS AN INCREDIBLY DETAILED EYE WITNESS ACCOUNT FROM HAIFA TO TOBRUK
NORTH AFRICA LIBYA EGYPT ISRAEL MIDDLE EAST TOBRUK. Very Good. 1941. On offer is a sensational original December 30th 1940 - December 31st 1941 manuscript diary handwritten by a Sowerby Bridge England native Private Harry Wilson Winn ID No. 7627412 R.A.O.C . Royal Army Ordnance Corps that served with the famed 7th Division 'Desert Rats'. This extraordinary first-hand account by a dedicated and keen observer is jammed packed with historic entries describing life and service in North Africa and the Middle East from Haifa to Cairo to Tobruk Libya. From the mundane sometimes difficult sometimes fun filled life of a private in the Army to the unique other worldly matters of eating camel steaks to the intense descriptions of bombing raids enemy attacks deprivations and tragic loss are all encapsulated in this diary. He tells of the difficulties of living in a foreign environment suffering heat sores requiring a week in the hospital to the normality of going to the canteen for coffee and breakfast. He also mentions friends as they move or return or are convalescent he notes the native peoples and the other 'boys' like the New Zealanders and Aussies. He keeps up on the global picture of the War noting German movements politics Russia and American involvement and so much more. Truly one of the most packed diaries we have seen in a compact 6 x 3¾ inch book. Historians and researchers of the North African campaigns will be hard-pressed to find a more detailed observant and charming writer. He can be oh so droll: "News reports
Abyssinian trouble is finished. Ahem!" or punching the air in glee: "Orders say battle dress will not be worn until Dec 12th. Oh Yeah!" Each day is fully written in intense tight legible scrawl. Here are some snippets: "Lovely day. Air raid 7 am heavy bombs dropped on gun positions shook our billet"; "lovely day. Big cd gun opened out in reply to Gerry 7 am Gerry planes flew over to try locate his position"; "arrived in Tobruk from Alexandria - enemy raids overhead"; "artillery fire quiet but air raids as usual. Getting used to diving under bales of blankets in our tent. Posted on orders that I am now Class I Storeman. Slept in an air raid shelter outside of main office"; "work as usual. Sandstorm blowing all night. Very hot. 'stand to' still in force. Plenty of artillery. More dive bombing harbour lines. Saw bombs leaving plane". "27 planes brought down during last two days. More RAF planes arriving out here. RAF sunk German supply ships of coast of Tripoli. Heard that Yugoslavia will be compelled to give in." "Heavy air-raids dive-bombing and artillery fire. German attack repulsed and some tanks taken." He also keeps the book's month at a glance section with highlights and milestones: French ship "Andindo" sunk in harbour; HMS Terror sunk by enemy action off Libyan coast; ship carrying Italian POW's hit a mine killing many including Aussie guards; Tobruk is surrounded. And on and on and on until he writes on the last day of the year; "here ends my diary for 1941 - what has 1942 in store for me" Of further interest and really fascinating is the use of the diary memorandum pages to list events and milestones. For example he lists 36 different towns and places he saw in the year. Morse code semaphore illustrations Hebrew and Armenian alphabets in different hands parade routine schedule letter senders monetary exchange canteen prices kit layout list and diagram cash payouts hand copy of dropped propaganda leaflet addresses interesting facts military clock number of air raids number of alerts etc. etc. Providing even more depth to the week-at-a-glance diary are a small number newspaper clippings tipped or tucked in.

Private J McClelland
1861 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT CIVIL WAR DIARY JOURNAL AND MUSTER OF THE NEW YORK STATE MILITIA ANSWERING PRESIDENT LINCOLN'S CALL TO PUT DOWN THE INSURRECTION
ALBANY New York. Good. 1861. On offer is a significant 1861 Albany New York REPUBLICAN ARTILLERY COMPANY 25th REGIMENT Company A New York State Militia NYSM handwritten Civil War diary and journal completed by Private J. McClelland. On April 15th 1861 President Lincoln called on the States to provide 75000 militia men to meet the call of insurrection for a total of 3 months of duty. The 25th Regiment Company A NEW YORK STATE MILITIA was called up to answer President Lincoln request. This sensational artifact begins April 22 1861 to May 25th 1861 nineteen pages text. For the most part it is written in one hand in ink starting with a list of all the officers and enlisted men including musicians. A total of 82 privates 4 Sgt. 10 musicians 4 corporals 1 Capt. J. Fredendall and 3 Lieut.s Myers Pechim and Stackhouse. Handwriting is very legible. It also lists 3 of the soldiers who died including a Sgt. who started a diary of this company and died before completing it. Research suggests this is not that diary but most likely a source that may have been used by McClelland. The diary is not in chronological order since there are early written references to June 1861 and then later May 1861. The author was most likely was using recollections and written notes of the Sgt. who passed away as mentioned in this written account. This very scarce early Civil War diary highlights a meeting with President Lincoln some fighting early in the war as the 25th took part in the advance into Virginia and occupation of Arlington Heights May 24 1861 and capturing rebel pickets etc. Here are some snippets: "They left Albany on 4/22/1861 for Washington D.C. for 3 months. Did trench work at Arlington Heigths Virg. starting June 20." "On April 28th marched to Casperi's House. Tuesday the 30th the troops were visited by "Abe the President" and Seward. On May 4th sworn to service to the U.S. service to May 23rd. On the 23rd moved into Virginia with 14000 other troops and arrived at Roach's house.who at 4 a.m. took out a pistol and was subdued by the troops. At 8 a.m. saw 2 cavalry pickets who attempted to flee were captured and brought under guard and marched to Washington." "The Rifle Co. being in the rear of the regiment kept on the raid to Harper's Ferry instead of turning to Alexandria as the regiment did." "On May 25th a report went to Washington that they were being cut to pieces and Sherman's battery came over a long bridge flying to our assistance." This leather bound ledger style book was used as the diary/journal along with some Masonic information since McClellan was the treasurer of a Masonic Temple in Wadsworth N.Y. A scarce first hand account of the early Militia and its duties and battle in the Civil War. There are also some bit of ephemera including a few newspaper clippings found in the diary relating to McClellan as a Mason.; Manuscript; 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall; HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL PERSONAL HISTORY MEMOIR MEMORIAL DIARY JOURNAL DIARIES JOURNALS LOG LOGS KEEPSAKE AMERICANA Civil War War Between the States LINCOLN NEW YORK ALBANY MILITIA SLAVERY ABOLITION SEWARD VIRGINIA ARLINGTON HEIGHTSN.Y.S.M.

PRIVATE JAMES R ADAMS, 13th Battalion of Infantry (Hamilton)
ARCHIVE LOT OF 58 DIARIES 1888 THROUGH 1944 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DIARIES OF PVT. ADAMS - HISTORY OF THE CANADIAN COLORED COTTON MILLS CO. AND TEXTILE INDUSTRY OF CANADA
Hamilton Ontario/Montreal Quebec. Very Good. 1888. Remarkable archive of 58 handwritten manuscript diaries covering 1888 - 1944 1922 includes a travel diary authored by Private James R. Adams of the famed red-coated 13th Battalion of Infantry Hamilton Ontario Canada. Beginning in 1888 age 25 James does more than detail his adult life on paper he actually writes a history of the Canadian textile industry and the Ontario Cotton Mills Company a name that changed a number of times and eventually to the Canadian Colored Cotton Mills company a Hamilton based company that gained fame on a number of fronts. Biographic notes on the company at the end of the listing. The first diary begins with only the odd financial and business note. It actually takes James a couple of years 3 or 4 before he begins to use the diaries more fully beyond business appointments prices of commodities contacts made and the odd news item. As he ages he does more and writes more but he does not make it easy as he uses shorthand frequently. Most of what you learn about James is obliquely but what James does amazingly is capture the history of the textile industry in Canada. There are copious notes throughout that we are sure that for someone with knowledge of the industry terms and sizes and such could dig out a mass of historical information through this lot. We also noted that even in the 19th century diaries James worked with large numbers. He had an important job and we assume he was successful enough that he was sent to help open up the Montreal office in 1894 as evidenced by the change to his address the particulars area. Beyond the business writings there are his personal finances and family matters. In one diary we found a genealogy area but all intials and we only realized the value of the notes by the description 'Mater' and 'Pater'. A fascinating voyage of discovery awaits the new owner of this sensational historic record of one man's life and business career. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES: The Ontario Cotton Mills Company was established in 1881 in Hamilton Ontario by a group of men including William Hendrie Sr. Edward and Charles Gurney and C.B. Snow. The name was changed the same year to the Ontario Cotton Manufacturing Company O.C.M. and production began in 1882. The factory covered almost the entire block bounded by James Simcoe MacNab and Ferrie Streets except for a hotel on the west side of the property. The company manufactured such cotton products as denims shoe linings flour bags and carpet yarns under the brand name "Kingcot". By 1886 the mill's 400 employees mostly women and girls were producing 2.5 million yards - over 14000 miles - of cloth per year. However two years later the company "met with a financial reverse" according to the Hamilton Spectator and was purchased by a Hamilton syndicate of businessmen comprising mostly the same businessmen who established the O.C.M. in 1881. In 1892 it was reorganized again as the Ontario Cottons O.C. subsidiary of the Canadian Colored Cotton Mills Company Limited C.C.C. headquartered in Montreal Quebec. C.C.C. controlled about a dozen mills throughout the Dominion including three in Cornwall Ontario and three in New Brunswick. The company was also noted in 1898 as being the first company in Hamilton to switch from steam power to hydroelectric power.; Manuscript; HAMILTON HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH DIARY JOURNAL LOG KEEPSAKE WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS DIARIES JOURNALS LOGS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL PERSONAL HISTORY CANADIANA Canada Fenians Royal Blackwatch World War I Word War II WWI WWII Clothing Industry Spinning Yarn Looms Montreal Hamilton Textile Textiles Quebec Ontario Canada . hardcover

Lincoln and the Convention of 1860: An Address Before the Chicago Historical Society April 4 1918
Chicago: Chicago Historical Society 1918. Paperback. Small 4to. Stiff brown wrappers. 29pp. Frontispiece. Very good. Bit of slight edgewear and couple of small edge chips. Tight decent first edition of this address by the Emporia Kansas businessman born 1838 who at age 21 was the youngest delegate to this convention that nominated Abraham Lincoln for president. According to a biographical note concluding this essay "From 1861 to 1864 Mr. Procter was on a special mission to the Indian Territory a work demanding courage and discretion of a high order and which was especially appreciated by Secretary John P. Usher of Lincoln's cabinet." He later also attended the Republican conventions in 1912 and 1916. Accompanied by an Autograph Note Signed from Procter 1p 8" X 10" St. Joseph Michigan n.y. 1922 postal cancellation August 21. Addressed to "My Dear Mr. Hambrecht" George P. Hambrecht 1871-1943 noted Lincoln collector and founder of the Lincoln Fellowship of Wisconsin. Near fine. Original folds evident none weakened else remarkably clean and pristine. On lined notebook paper the elderly Procter carefully and laboriously pens a cordial note in vibrant blue fountain pen: "I have your letter of Aug 12th and note carefully all you say. I wait cheerfully for that paper 'till you return. I hope you may have a very pleasant trip and return a better American than ever if that is possible." Boldly signed. With original envelope addressed in Procter's hand. At Procter's death in 1925 he was apparently the last surviving delegate of the 1860 convention. MONAGHAN 2387. OAKLEAF 1130.

PROFESSOR EDGAR C KNOWLTON
1911 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT JOURNAL AND DIARY OF BRILLIANT AND NOTED LINGUIST AND FUTURE PROFESSOR WHILE AN UNDERGRADUATE AT HARVARD
HARVARD BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS MASS MA WISCONSIN. Very Good. 1911. On offer is the superb original manuscript journal and diary of Prof. Edgar C. Knowlton 1890-1978 noted linguist translator and author who in intimate detail writes of his life opinions and observations as an undergrad student at Harvard University living at Stoughton Hall. He is a super diarist who in this large page a day book dated January 1 1911 to December 31 1911 writes and over-writes pages on his friends and classmates his opinions on general society manners philosophy books movies social mores and much much more. This is an intimate peek at pre World War I America from the point of view of an intensely intelligent observer of himself the human condition and those around him. Knowlton also records his thoughts and ideas on various books and topics that he was reading or studying for his coursework at Harvard. Researchers and historians of the era would be hard pressed to find a more frank and honest diarist. BIO NOTES: Biography of Edgar C. Knowlton Edgar C. Knowlton was born on 19 Sept 1890 at Manchester New Hampshire the son of George and Alice Knowlton. His father was a druggist. Knowlton obtained his B.A. from Harvard University in 1912 his M.A. in 1913 and his Ph.D. in 1918. His "Potter Prize" dissertation was titled "Nature as an Allegorical Figure." After his schooling he entered the army and served in France during World War I. Knowlton began his teaching career in the public schools at Manchester where he is found living with his parents in the 1920 Census. He later worked at Lafayette College followed by stints at the University of Illinois Ohio Wesleyan and summer sessions at the University of Texas then at Stanford University and finally for many years in the University of Wisconsin system starting at the old La Crosse State College. He began teaching at La Crosse in 1935 the school later became part of the University of Wisconsin system. Knowlton had a reading knowledge of German French Latin Greek Danish Dano-Norwegian Welsh Old Irish Spanish and Italian. He spoke German and French. He wrote a book entitled An Outline of World Literature as well as contributions to a dozen and half books and periodicals. He also published translations of old Welsh poetry and was the co-author of a freshman English textbook. In 1920 Knowlton married Mildred Mason Hunt at Fall River Massachusetts and had a son Edgar C. Knowlton Jr born 1921 in Ohio while his father was teaching at Wesleyan. Edgar junior also became an academic teaching at the University of Hawaii. He was very fluent in languages as well proficient in even more than his father. He also became a widely published author and eventually a Professor Emeritus of European Languages at the University of Hawaii. A Festschrift in his honor "East Meets West" was published in 1988 by the University of Hawaii where it is stated that Prof. Knowlton was fluent in eleven languages with a working knowledge of fifteen others. Edgar Sr. appears to have retired from Wisconsin University La Crosse. He died while living at Wisconsin in November of 1978 at the age of 88 years and 1 month. For the first 112 pages the entries take up the entire pages though Knowlton is not bound by convention and carries on from one day to the next if he needs more writing space afterwards they become less full with the last third of the volume having brief entries and November and December very brief entries. Each page is one day. The 10 x 8 inch book has 365 manuscript pages bound in red cloth good condition with minor wear to extremities some white paint spots to cover written in ink in a legible hand. ; 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; KEYWORDS: HARVARD UNIVERSITY LINGUIST MANCHESTER NEW HAMPSHIRE KNOWLTON UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN WISCONSIN LAFAYETTE COLLEGE LANGUAGES LA CROSSE STATE COLLEGE HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH DIARY JOURNAL LOG KEEPSAKE WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS DIARIES JOURNALS LOGS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL PERSONAL HISTORY TRAVEL 20TH CENTURY antiquité contrat vélin document manuscrit papier Antike Brief Pergament Dokument Manuskript Papier oggetto d'antiquariato atto velina documento manoscritto carta antigüedad hecho vitela documento manuscrito Papel . hardcover
