With two examples of embroidered Berlin wool work laid in one with initals "SAB Oct. 29 1859" and the other an alter scene. Royal 8vo. Sophia Augusta Brown's Bible Wife of John Carter Brown. The bible of Sophia Augusta Brown 1825-1909 wife of John Carter Brown herself an active bibliophile who helped her husband build his library and oversaw its stewardship after his death. Sophia Augusta was 34 and John Carter Brown 61 when they married after a brief courtship on June 23 1859. That event is recorded in the family record between the Old and New Testaments as are the births and marriages of the couple's three children--John Nicholas Brown Harold Brown and Sophia Augusta--the marriages of the two sons and the death of John Carter Brown "dearly loved Husband & Father" on June 10 1874. The younger Sophia Augusta Brown married banker and businessman William Watts Sherman 1842-1912 whose Newport RI house is an architectural landmark.<br/><br/>The daughter of Patrick Browne an Anglo-Irish jurist and member of Her Majesty's Council of the Bahamas and Harriet Thayer of Providence a direct descendant of Roger Williams Sophia Augusta Brown was "an indomitable force in an era when women were discovering a role for themselves in the charitable sector . For Sophia Augusta perpetuating her husband's mission through the sound management and enhancement of his collection was her way of contributing to the advancement of knowledge and understanding among peoples . From her sons' earliest age Sophia Augusta ensured they would develop an appreciation for the care condition and housing of books . John Nicholas and Harold often accompanied their mother to booksellers and private collectors. At an early age they were shown priceless works: a Columbus letter the papers of Leonardo daVinci a note by Galileo . On his trips to Europe as an adult John Nicholas was expected to report back . with his assessment of the books he encountered . When he turned 22 in 1883 Sophia Augusta entrusted him with the care of the library" Sylvia Brown Grappling with Legacy: Rhode Island's Brown Family and the American Philanthropic Impulse 2017. While her husband was still alive Sophia Augusta oversaw the construction in 1862 of the fireproof library wing in the Nightingale-Brown House which remained the site of the library until it was relocated to its current home at Brown University at the impetus of John Nicholas Brown's will.

MMMMM gathering repeated. A good unsophisticated copy. The first Bible printed in Vermont illustrated with eight plates and a map. Copies with the map and full complement of plates are most uncommon. Printed by John Cunningham and published in Windsor by Merrifield and Cochran who sold the volume both wholesale and retail "at the sign of the Bible" the edition was also to be sold in Worcester Boston Walpole and Middlebury. The eight plates produced in a simple style O'Callaghan describes them as "exceedingly coarse" were engraved specifically for this edition and all are labelled as belonging to the first Vermont edition. They include: "Elijah Raising the Widow's Son" "The Holy Family" "St. Matthew" "St. Mark" "Jesus of Nazareth Which was Crucified: He is Risen; He is Not Here" "St. Luke" "St. John the Evangelist" and "St. Paul." Seven were engraved by Isaac Eddy 1777-1847 of Weathersfield Vt. and one by James Hill "Jesus of Nazareth". O'Callaghan and Hills call for seven plates total six by Eddy and one by Hill but McCorison calls for eight as found here. The anonymous "A Map of Palestine Describing the Travels of Jesus Christ" is not called for in any of the bibliographies cited. However according to a notice in the Windsor newspaper THE WASHINGTONIAN dated August 31 1812 Merrifield & Cochran published three versions of this Bible: without plates $5.00 with 8 plates $5.50 or with 8 plates and map $5.75.
