Wardle, Gwyllym Lloyd (1762?-1833).
A CIRCUMSTANTIAL REPORT OF THE EVIDENCE AND PROCEEDINGS UPON THE CHARGES PREFERRED AGAINST HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUKE OF YORK IN THE CAPACITY OF COMMANDER IN CHIEF, IN THE MONTHS OF FEBRUARY AND MARCH 1809. Including the Whole of the Original Letters.
pp. viii, 700, (4) [Publisher's advertisement] + Nine engraved plates (foxed). 8vo. Original full leather binding, boards almost detached. Frederick Augustus, Duke of York and Albany (1763-1827), was the second son of George III and Queen Charlotte. His career at court, in the House of Lords, and in the military makes fascinating reading, but it is a great controversy and scandal that most concerns us here. He had become entangled with a handsome adventuress, Mary Anne Clarke (1776-1852). The precise facts of Mary's early love life and adventures are open to speculation. It is certain that in 1803, under the name of Mrs. Clarke, she took a great house in Gloucester Place and began to entertain sumptuously, and that rumor from the first coupled her name with that of the Duke of York. She rushed into the wildest extravagances; she kept ten horses and twenty servants, including three men professed as 'cooks'; she ate off the plate which had belonged to the Duc de Berri, and her wineglasses cost two guineas each. The Duke of York had promised her 1,000 L a month, but it was very irregularly paid. She was soon much pressed by creditors, and there is no doubt that in order to get money she promised to use her influence with the Duke of York. The Duke was at that time commander-in-chief, and had enormous patronage at his disposal, and as he was known to be an easy-going man, it was believed by those about her that he would do whatever she wished. For the promise of her influence she received various sums of money, especially from officers in the army, and the matter came public knowledge at last. The man who brought up the question in the House of Commons in 1809, Colonel Gwillym Lloyd Wardle, was probably no better than herself. He brought eight charges against the Duke for wrong use of his military patronage, and won for himself a short season of popularity. But the charges were found not proven against the Duke, though there was no doubt Mrs. Clarke had received money for her influence with him, and her beauty and courage, and even the sauciness with which she stood her long examination at the bar of the House, won her many admirers. The result of the investigation was that the Duke resigned his post of commander-in-chief, to which, however, he returned in two years, and that he broke off his connection with Mrs. Clarke. This scandalous case raised a cloud of pamphlets, some of which are very amusing, and most of them full of falsehoods. Later in 1809 Colonel Wardle prosecuted Mrs. Clarke and two pamphleteers, F. and D. Wright, for libeling him, and after a trial, which did not resound to his credit, the prisoners were all found "not guilty". Mrs. Clarke next proposed to publish the letters she had received from her princely lover. This had to be stopped at all risks, and Sir Herbert Taylor bought up the letters, and offered Mrs. Clarke 7,000 L. down and a pension of 400 L. a year, and for this consideration the printed edition was destroyed, with the exception of one copy deposited at Drummond's bank. Her next publication, "A Letter to the Right Hon. William Fitzgerald," brought her into trouble, and she was condemned in 1813 to nine months' imprisonment for libel. She then settled down and devoted herself to the education of her daughters, who all married well. After 1815 she removed to Paris, where she was still sought after by the numerous admirers of her wit, to listen to her scandals of old days. Especially attentive to her was the Marquis of Londonderry. She died at Boulogne, at 76 years of age. - Paraphrased from the DNB. W141

Washington state Women Education
Women's Education and Youth Culture Pacific Northwest School and Community Life Photo Album 1911 to 1918
1918. Unidentified compiler. Photograph album of young woman student 1911-1918 documents school life recreation and community activity in Washington State and the Pacific Northwest during the 1910s. The album centers on a female student's progression from school-age years through graduation capturing educational environments organized physical activities and civic participation. The material records the presence of young women in structured school settings alongside informal leisure and public events providing visual evidence of student life and gendered social experience in the years surrounding the First World War.<br /> <br /> Photograph album. Washington State and British Columbia 1911-1918. Oblong format 7 x 10.5 inches containing 209 gelatin silver print photographs mounted across 40 pages supplemented by 12 postcards depicting locations in Washington State and Victoria British Columbia. The images include a graduation portrait of a young woman in cap and gown holding a pennant reading "Haddon H.S. 1911" along with later images referencing "1918" suggesting continued documentation across her school years. Photographs depict female students engaged in organized activities including tennis bicycling and calisthenics with groups of girls in uniform marching in formation across open fields. Additional sequences show camping excursions with tents and forest settings indicating school-sponsored outdoor programs. The album also includes scenes of younger children in school environments at play and participating in staged productions some in historical or theatrical costume including colonial-era dress and one child in a Japanese kimono. Community scenes include parades with extensive displays of American flags and images of shipbuilders at work situating the album within a broader civic and labor context. Scattered captions in manuscript such as "cutie" and "happy" provide limited but personal commentary.<br /> <br /> The album spans a period of expanding public education and increasing visibility of organized physical training and extracurricular programming for girls reflecting broader educational reforms of the early twentieth century. The inclusion of civic events and industrial labor scenes connects student life to wider community structures during the wartime era. The Pacific Northwest setting including references to regional institutions such as the University of Washington situates the material within a developing regional identity shaped by education industry and cross-border movement. Black cloth boards with light handling wear; photographs generally well-preserved with occasional minor wear; album complete and fully populated; overall very good condition. A substantial visual record of female student experience and community life in the early twentieth-century Pacific Northwest. unknown

WELSH Dorothy; Music: Organ; Women at Work
Photograph Scrapbook Album of Dorothy Welsh Employee of Schantz Organ Company: 1951-1990
Orrville OH; 1954-1990. 4to. Hardcover binder with 99 clear plastic leaves holding hundreds of clipppings ephemera and 203 photographs 53 black and white snapshot; 122 color snapshot; 26 Polaroid instant color prints; 2 black and white enlargements. Contents laid into pages loose. Majority of photographs captioned to versos. Overall well preserved; about near fine. <br/><br/>A large scrapbook compiled by Dorothy Agnes Welsh b.1921-d.2001 documenting her 40-year career with the Schantz Organ Company of Orrville Ohio. Founded in 1870 Schantz was primarily a local operation until a national expansion in the years immediately following WWII. A turn-key firm responsible for all aspects of the design building installation service and renovation of many of the country's finest pipe organs its growth and many of its most ambitious projects are documented here including the firm's magnum opus: a massive 1950's installation in the Cathedral of the Sacred Heart in Newark NJ conatining nearly 9000 individual pipes. <br /> <br />Through article clippings images detailed captions and notes Dorothy documents the day-to-day at Schantz through her clear well composed views and uncomplicated text. Approximately 1/4 of the images are of employee gatherings primarily retirement parties though the majority of prints are occupational and provide clear views of the company's process and employees: woodworking intricate electronic designs antique organ restorations installations etc. from the early 1950's to 1990 and from the perspective of a female employee. <br /> <br />Welsh began work in the console department in January of 1951. During her four-decade long career she served in nearly all of the company's departments thus these images seem to document every aspect of the firm's work. Many employees were women. A telling bit of ephemere suggests what the workplace may have been like for Dorothy: an illustrated napkin disparaging women drivers along with a brief note on and 1965 photograph of the co-worker who left it for her Ray Eyster is among the ephemera. The incident seems to have stuck with Dorothy given its presence among the contents. "Eyster Put this on my work bench. I had been driving a car a short time when this show up. He work at Schantz a few yr. He was not happy .". <br /> <br />Clippings are often notated by Welsh and focus on local and national coverage of Schanz's projects and notable life events of her co-workers primarily obituaries. Additional are several photographic company brochures with detailed specs on organ installations at Lawrence University in Appleton WI: Trinity United Church of Christ in Canton OH; First Methodist Church in Glendale CA; Sharp Chapel at Tulsa University; and more. <br /> <br />A considerable primary record of women in an artisan workplace richly documenting in visual and written detail the myriad elements involved in the work of the Schantz Organ Company. hardcover books
