In 1856 he was appointed Paymaster of the 'Euryalus' the first ship in which HRH Prince Alfred Duke of Edinburgh served afloat. In 1861 he was apptd Paymaster of the Coast Guard ship 'Colossus' and in 1863 was made secretary to the Controller General of the Coast Guard. In 1869 on large reductions being made in that office Mr Whitehouse was apptd to the 'Bristol' but before he could join received orders to return to the Admiralty and was placed in charge of the correspondence of the Coast Guard. In 1875 the department was re-established & Mr Whitehouse was reappointed secretary in which position he again served with HRH The Duke of Edinburgh who was Admiral Superintendent from 1876 to 1879. Mr Whitehouse who retired from the Royal Navy Reserve Office in 1885 after 22 years connection with it was himself the son of a naval officer and had two sons in the Royal Navy and a grandson at present a midshipman His second son Sir George Whitehouse KCB being knighted on the successful completion of the Uganda Railway". The collection consists of: Alfred Whitehouse's original Royal Navy Commission dated 2nd October 1850 appointing him Paymaster and Purser aboard the Sloop Scout with Admiralty signatures. Alfred Whitehouse's original Royal Navy Commission dated 22nd February 1858 appointing him Paymaster 3rd Class to HMS Euryalus with Admiralty signatures. A handwritten record of service on a Navy form signed off by Wilfred Medd for the Accountant General of the Navy. The ships he served on between 1840 and 1885 are listed as: Victory Sapphire Atholl Winchester Ocean Madagascar Scorpion Grecian Euryalus Victory Fisgard Colossus President Penelope Hercules Naval Reserves Office. His rank starts as Boy 2nd Class and rises to Paymaster-in-Chief. An original handwritten letter from Whitehouse as Paymaster giving his opinion on a Navy circular. This is dated 1858/1860 as it was written from HMS Euryalus. A handwritten copy contemporary of a letter dated 1847 from C E Trevelyan from Treasury Chambers acknowledging receipt of a report and expressing the Admiralty's satisfaction with AW's duty. Charles Edward Trevelyan was a civil servant and colonial administrator. A handwritten copy contemporary of a letter dated 1848 from C E Trevelyan from treasury Chambers again acknowledging receipt of a report and the Admiralty are looking favourably on promotion. A handwritten copy contemporary of a letter from Dublin Castle dated 1848 recommending AW for a position in the Royal Navy. Signed by R J Routh. An original 1861 Navy document appointing Whitehouse as Paymaster 3rd Class to HMS Colossus. A typed letter signed dated 2nd January 1907 from Evan MacGregor at the Admiralty expressing sympathy on the death of Alfred Whitehouse.

There are also two empty envelopes sent and stamped with official Admiralty marks and two pieces of family ephemera a receipt from an undertaker for a funeral dated 1893 and a hand-drawn design for a memorial showing the top and side elevations but with no indication who it was meant for.Condition: The Commissions are in good plus condition. The copies of letters have tears to the folds and some age-related tanning and scattered foxing. The letter from Whitehouse himself is badly torn with a blank segment missing to the lower half of the second sheet and foxed but with no loss of text. The remaining documents have commensurate with age. Overall an interesting collection of documents detailing a Naval career in the Victorian era. <br/> <br/> The Office of the Admiralty paperback

VICTORIAN ROYAL NAVY RECRUITMENT BROADSIDE SEEKING 'STOUT HEALTHY BOYS'
London: W. P. Griffith and Sons Ltd. 1888. Printed broadside 34.4 x 20.5cm. Minor contemporary manuscript correction to one of the printed height/chest measurements. There are three neat horizontal filing folds and a minor nick to each end of one of the folds otherwise condition is very good. An uncommon late nineteenth-century naval recruitment broadside boldly titled: "Wanted for the Royal Navy Stout Healthy Boys of Good Character from 15 to 16 1/2 Years of Age". The broadside begins by setting out the various requirements for new recruits such as height and chest measurements as well as the stipulation that they "must be able to read and write must have the written consent of their Parents or Guardians and must sign an engagement to serve for 12 years from the date of attaining the age of 18". It then moves on to outline scales of pay allowances pensions periods of leave and other arrangements for example "boys after 6 months' service can send money home to their parents or guardians at the following rates". At the foot is a list of ships including the names of their captains and ports currently seeking recruits as well as the locations of recruitment offices. </p><p>A rather fun piece of naval ephemera which would have surely appealed to many Victorian youths' sense of adventure.

Visit By Command of His Majesty the King of his Excellency the Prime Minister of Nepal to HMS "Dreadnought" Friday June 19th 1908.
London: 1908. Admiral Dunbar-Nasmith's copy with additional illustrations A specially produced copy likely issued to dignitaries from the library of Admiral Sir Martin Dunbar-Nasmith although unmarked as such. It contains an additional six postcard illustrations of HMS Dreadnought Bellerophon Superb Invincible and Indomitable. Dunbar-Nasmith captained a D-class submarine from 1911 to 1912 and served aboard HMS Indomitable in November 1908. The launch of HMS Dreadnought in 1906 represented a revolution in naval firepower. "In her day the Dreadnought was the cynosure of the early twentieth-century battleship. So epoch making was this one ship that all subsequent battleships are usually referred to as dreadnoughts the name becoming a generic term" Parkinson p. xi. As such the British government was keen to show her off to foreign visitors. In June 1908 the Prime Minister of Nepal Maharaja Sri Teen Chandra Shumsher Jung Bahadur Rana 1863-1929 and his entourage were invited to watch the ship on exercise in the English Channel. To accompany this visit the admiralty distributed a small souvenir volume with descriptions and photographs of Dreadnought the Navy's D-class submarines and its torpedo boat destroyers. There are two known states of this work. The more common features a gilt-lettered front board title page captioned tissue guard for the photograph of Dreadnought and folding map. The present rarer state does not have these features but instead has six additional chromolithograph postcard illustrations at the rear. Dunbar-Nasmith 1883-1965 was a Royal Navy submarine captain throughout the First World War and awarded the Victoria Cross for his actions in the Sea of Marmara in 1915. Octavo. Eight tipped-in gelatin silver prints on matte paper with captioned tissue guards and six colour postcard illustrations. Original blue calf by Eyre & Spottiswoode spine gilt in compartments flat bands elaborate gilt panels to boards front board stamped with royal arms in gilt rear board stamped with admiralty device in gilt gilt dentelles silk doublures and endpapers gilt edges binder's stamp to front free endpaper verso. Abrasions and silverfishing to front board edges and dentelles binding sprung pages a little crinkled some foxing internally: a very good copy.

It marked the lowest pitch reached in discipline and fighting and efficiency by the fleet in the 18th century and it had a very bad effect in confirming the pedantic system of tactics set up by the old Fighting Instructions .

Considerations on the Principles of Naval Discipline and Naval Courts-martial; In which the Doctrines lately laid down in the House of Commons upon those subjects are examined and the conduct of the courts-martial on Admiral Keppel and Sir Hugh Palliser are compared
London: Printed for J. Almon and J. Debrett 1781. First edition. A2 B-2B4. 4 190 2 ad pp. Errata leaf follows title page. 1 vols. 8vo. Uncut in later drab wrappers chipped and torn lower wrapper especially. Title leaf soiled with abrasion costing four letters in first line. Some old folds and minor soiling bottom corner of last leaf crumpled. First edition. A2 B-2B4. 4 190 2 ad pp. Errata leaf follows title page. 1 vols. 8vo. Courts Martial of Keppel & Palliser during the American Revolution. Written by Thomas Lewis O'Beirne 1748-1823 the Anglican divine whose first publication was the sermon he preached "An excellent sermon preached in St. Paul's Church New-York" NY 1776 as chaplin in Lord Howe's fleet at St. Paul's Chapel in New York after the disastrous fire in New York City of September 21 1776 probably set by Patriot arsonists. Upon his return to England in 1779 O'Beirne wrote a defense of Howe in "A Candid and Impartial Narrative of the Transactions of the Fleet ." L. 1779 and became more and more allied with the Whig party.<br/><br/>This is his defense of Admiral Keppel in the politically charged dispute with Sir Hugh Palliser and Lord Sandwich over their actions in the engagement with the French fleet off the coast of Brest in July 1778. Charges and counter-charges flew over that indecisive and costly encouter Kessel being accused "misconduct and neglect of duty" and of not having done enough to finish off the crippled French fleet. Indeed a claim was made at the time "that had the French been defeated at the time a diplomatic mission to America giving them the opportunity to abandon the French treaty would not have failed" DNB Palliser on the other hand was accused of neglecting to obey an order to come to the support of the rest of the fleet. The dispute ultimately resulted in court-martials of both men resulting in the acquittal of each although Palliser was censured and ruined while Keppel refused to serve under the current Ministry. <br/><br/>"The whole episode had severely weakened the standing of the Navy. Keppel asked not be sent to sea under the current Ministry and so the Admiralty retired him which led to a general resignation by his naval supporters depriving the Navy of many able officers in the continuing war against America." - DNB<br/><br/>The first edition of O'Beirne's account of the two court martials although well represented in institutions is rare on the market; and only one copy of the 2nd edition has appeared at auction over the last 30 years.

According to the DNB "In December 1743 Captain Savage Mostyn was appointed to the Suffolk which was on 24 February 1744 one of the fleet with Sir John Norris off Dungeness. In April he was moved to the Hampton Court one of four ships which on 6 January 1745 fell in with two French ships of the line off Ushant. Two of the English ships the Captain and the Sunderland parted company. The Hampton Court and Dreadnought continued the chase; but although Mostyn's ship came up with the French it could not engage without the assistance of the Dreadnought and the two Frenchmen got safely into Brest."<br/><br/>Mostyn was brought up for court martial and acquitted but his conduct became an object of popular and official scorn -- this heavily critical pamphlet is usually attributed to Admiral Vernon.

Royal Navy: British Acts of Parliament
COLLECTION OF EIGHT GENERAL ACTS OF THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT RELATING TO THE ROYAL NAVY 1734 - 1762
London 1762. Eight separate imprints. Dbd. Minor edge wear and toning. Generally very good to near fine condition. In a blue cloth slipcase gilt. A nice collection of British Acts of Parliament relating to the Royal Navy or related seagoing activities. The dominance of the British Royal Navy was unquestioned from the late 1600s until well into the 20th century. These mid 18th-century acts were printed at a time when the British Navy was swiftly ascending to the peak of its power through superior financing tactics training organization population support hygiene dockyard facilities logistical support and warship design and construction. By the early 19th century the British Navy saw little action mainly due to the lack of a worthy adversary. Each of these titles is rare with between one and four copies listed in institutions in ESTC. <br> <br> The separate imprints included here are as follows: <br> <br> 1 AN ACT TO SETTLE HOW FAR OWNERS OF SHIPS SHALL BE ANSWERABLE FOR THE ACTS OF THE MASTERS OR MARINERS drop title.
