Mumford, James Gregory MD (Commodore John Barry, US Navy). (USS Alliance) M D U S
MUMFORD MEMOIRS BEING THE STORY OF THE NEW ENGLAND MUMFORDS FROM THE YEAR 1655 TO THE PRESENT TIME
Boston: Privately printed by D. B. Updike The Merrymount Press 1900. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Ownership copy of Thomas J. Mumford with his bookplate dated 1907 New York designed by S. Hollyer. With the prospectus for the book laid in plus No. 7 of the Old South Leaflets "Cotton Mather's Lives of Bradford and Winthrop" two other noted colonial families with assorted newspaper clippings relating to both families. Most importantly tipped-in at the rear fly is letter dated 22 May 1782 Norwich Connecticut from Thomas Mumford to Captain John Barry of the frigate Alliance in New London pledging his support to Barry to supply food "salt beef" and other provisions for his ship signed "your very obedient T. Mumford". John Barry 1745 - 1803 was an Irish-born American naval officer who served in the Continental Navy during the American Revolutionary War and in the United States Navy during the Quasi-War. He has been credited by some as "The Father of the American Navy" sharing that moniker with John Paul Jones and John Adams and was appointed as a captain in the Continental Navy on December 7 1775. Barry was the first captain placed in command of an American warship commissioned for service under the Continental flag. After the Revolutionary War he became the first commissioned American naval officer at the rank of commodore receiving his commission from President George Washington in 1797. Source: Wikipedia During Barry's command of the Alliance - the time of Mumford's letter -Barry was seriously wounded in 1781during her capture of HMS Atalanta and Trepassey. And it was the Alliance under his command that fought and won the final naval battle of the American Revolution 140 miles south of Cape Canaveral FL on March 10 1783. Covers showing some edgewear episodic foxing mostly to the prospectus and some newspaper articles affixed to the front fly and rear endpapers a review of the book and articles about Commodore Barry.

Munier Chalmas, E.
Description d'une nouvelle scissurelle, suivie de la liste monographique des espèces connues de ce genre.
1862. 7 p., 1 lithographed plate and several white sheets, contemporary half calf with gilt title on spine, marbled flyleaves. Published in: Journal de Conchyliologie Scarce monograph, with one new species of Scissurellidae from the Paris Bassin Eocene. Written by Charles Philippe Ernest Munier Chalmas (1843-1903), who also had a species of Scissurella named after him. The paper was published at a time, apparently, when the Journal de Conchyliologie was issued in very low numbers. A very scarce offprint of the volume X issue of October 1862, pp. 391-397, and pl. XVI. A very good, nicely bound copy.
