[African-Americana – World War I – Harlem Hellfighters] Europe, Lieut James Reese; Sissle, Noble; Blake, Eubie
Good Night Angeline. Sheet Music
New York City: M. Witmark & Sons 1919. Sheet music measuring 9 ¼ x 12 ¼ inches. Small ownership stamp to top margin some light wear overall very good. James Reese Europe 1881–1919 was a composer and bandleader instrumental in the transition from ragtime to jazz whose popularity and influence is impossible to overstate. He conducted the Clef Club Orchestra in New York City which only played music by African-American composers and was the first Black orchestra to perform at Carnegie Hall. Europe’s Society Orchestra toured the country with dancers Vernon and Irene Castle popularizing ragtime dancing. In 1916 Europe enlisted with the 369th Infantry Regiment also known as the Harlem Hellfighters a primarily Black regiment that became one of the most highly decorated American units in World War I. Europe was a second lieutenant and led the Hellfighters Band which toured France in 1818 and is credited with bringing jazz to the continent of Europe. James Europe died in Boston in 1919 when a member of his band taking issue with Europe’s criticism stabbed him in the neck during the intermission of a concert at Mechanics Hall.<br /> <br /> Offered here is the sheet music for “Good Night Angeline†composed by James Reese Europe and his frequent collaborators Noble Sissle 1889–1975 and James Herbert “Eubie†Blake†1887–1983. The cover features a photograph of the Hellfighters Band above a portrait of Europe. We find four other copies of “Good Night Angeline†at the Oakland Public Library the Library Company of Philadelphia the Library of Congress and the Smithsonian Museum of African American History and Culture. Of interest to scholars of African-American musical and military history. M. Witmark & Sons unknown

[Civil War – Political Satire – Sheet Music] Cooper, George; Tucker, Henry; Eno, Henry [illustrator]
Jeff in Petticoats. A Song for the Times
New York: Wm. A. Pond & Co 1865. Folio sheet music lithographed pictorial cover. 6 pp. including cover. 9.5 x 12.25 inches. Typical light age toning and minor edge wear; very good example with strong impression remnants of string at spine removed from a larger volume. A vivid piece of end-of-war political satire commemorating the capture of Confederate president Jefferson Davis whose attempted escape in May 1865 quickly became the subject of popular ridicule in Northern newspapers and song sheets. The cover lithograph depicts Davis fleeing through a wooded encampment while dressed in women’s clothing a reference to widely circulated reports that he attempted to evade Union troops by donning a shawl or petticoats; in truth he had borrowed a shawl from his wife. Behind him a Union soldier points in recognition while onlookers react with amusement. The music was written by Henry Tucker a prolific mid-nineteenth-century songwriter known for sentimental and topical pieces with lyrics by George Cooper one of the most active American lyricists of the period and collaborator with composers such as Stephen Foster and J. R. Thomas. Together they produced a number of patriotic and topical songs during the Civil War years. The myth of Davis in women’s clothing was represented a few different ways though this large lithographic illustration done by Henry C. Eno is possibly the most iconic. Wm. A. Pond & Co unknown

[Revolutionary War; South Carolina] Drayton, William Henry
Revolutionary War period writ in which James Smyth demands 480 pounds from William Bath pilot in Charles-town. Signed by William Drayton Chief Justice at Charleston
1776. Ephemera. Very good condition. A Revolutionary War period writ issued in Charleston South Carolina signed by William Henry Drayton. A large sum of money is demanded of William Bath pilot of Charleston by James Smyth. Bath is not present in Charleston and somehow the writ is transferred to Sarah Johnson who it is inferred is in possession of Bath's property including a Negro girl named Lucey. The sheriff Thomas Gimbell executes the writ on Sarah Johnson. <br /> <br /> The writ is executed at a transition time for the American colonies from the Colonial to the Revolutionary War period. The form was issued on September 17 1776 just 2 months after the Declaration of Independence. As such all the pre-printed areas that refer to the "Province" South Carolina are crossed out and "State" is inserted. "Year of our Reign is also crossed through. The money demanded is in pounds. Included in the writ is reference to a "negro named Lucey with one Sarah Jones in Union Street" with a long statement by Thomas Gimball Sheriff of Charles Town signed. The writ was served Oct. 17 1776 and filed Jan 10th 1777. The witness is the Hble. William Henry Drayton Chief Justice at Charleston. <br /> <br /> It is not completely clear which William Drayton has signed the writ. It is most likely that of William Henry Drayton Sept. 1742-September 3 1779. He was the son of John Drayton and Charlotta Bull daughter of the colony's Governor William Bull. He was educated in England at Westminster School and Oxford before returning home in 1764. He served as a delegate for South Carolina to the Continental Congress in 1778 and 1779. He died of typhus in Philadelphia while in office. His signature "Wm Hy Drayton" is on the left side of the writ partially obscured by the duty stamp. <br /> <br /> However his cousin was William Drayton Sr. 1732-1790. Also born in Ashley River South Carolina he was the son of Thomas Drayton III & Elizabeth. Drayton was educated in the Middle Temple in London England in 1754. He read law to enter the South Carolina Bar in 1756 and was thereafter a Justice of the peace for Berkeley County South Carolina until 1763. From 1763 to 1780 he was Chief justice for the Province of East Florida. In 1789 he was a judge of the South Carolina Admiralty Court and an associate judge of the South Carolina Supreme Court appointed by George Washington. <br /> <br /> William Bath is included on the Grand Jury List for the "District of George Town" Parish of Prince George in 1778 & 1780. There is a marriage record for a William Bath to Elizabeth Baker widow on 2 Nov 1771. South Carolina Magazine of Ancestral Research Vol 10 #3. Sarah Jones is possibly the widow of Thomas Jones Sr whose will was probated in 1773. In the 1790 census she is listed as the head of the household with 2 boys under 16 and 2 women and no slaves. In 1800 just the mother and daughter comprise the household. In 1806 & 1809 she is listed as a seamstress in two different Charleston directories Negrin's directory and Almanac for the year 1806 and Directory for the District of Charleston 1809 by Richard Hrabowski. There are a series of James Smith's spelled Smyth in the writ. James Smyth is listed in Charleston in 1758; in 1780 he is on the Petit Jury List for the "District of Charles Town Johns Island Colleton County"; in the 1790 Federal Census he is in the parish of St. Phillips and St. Michaels in Charleston with no slaves. <br /> <br /> Alas there is no further reference to "Lucey". <br /> <br /> The heading is trimmed off the top and it appears that this area referred to the King and was hence trimmed off. Written carefully below is "The State of South Carolina to all Singular the Sheriffs of the State aforesaid Greeting. Laid paper 13 x 6 3/4" printed on one side with manuscript additions docketed manuscript notations on the verso. Uniformly tanned. unknown
