Du Bois William E.
TRIAL OF LUCRETIA CHAPMAN OTHERWISE CALLED LUCRETIA ESPOS Y MINA WHO WAS JOINTLY INDICTED WITH LINO AMALIA ESPOS Y MINA FOR THE MURDER OF WILLIAM CHAPMAN ESQ.
Philadelphia 1832. 2213pp. Dbd. with minimal remnants of original wrappers; has the appearance of gathered signatures stitched. Minor staining and foxing. Very good. Untrimmed. A scarce trial account involving Lucretia Chapman and a young Spaniard in the murder of Chapman's husband. William Chapman was a Pennsylvania schoolteacher in Andulusia outside Philadelphia; Lucretia was his young and buxom wife. By all accounts the Chapmans lived quietly. "At their door one day appeared a young twenty-two foreigner small only five-feet two inches but not unprepossessing in appearance. He gave his name as Carolino Espos y Mina and told an imaginative tale of being the son of the Spanish governor of California who was endeavoring with much difficulty to join his family. Mrs. Chapman was neither the first nor the last female to be swayed by a pair of Spanish eyes and a Latin name. He moved into the house and stayed there despite the protestations of Mr. Chapman who was not the master in his home. Thereafter the two were frequently seen by children servants and neighbors hugging and kissing about the place. Five weeks after he arrived Lino purchased a quarter of a pound of arsenic from a Philadelphia druggist explaining that he used it in stuffing birds. The following day Mr. Chapman was taken ill; four days later he was dead. The schoolmaster was in his grave less than two weeks when the Spanish don and Mrs. Chapman were quietly married in New York though there was later a disagreement between them over whether this was at his urging or hers. Almost immediately the true character of the Spanish adventurer came out with the disappearance of the family silver and other obvious signs of his chicanery. An autopsy disclosed that Mr. Chapman was heavily dosed with arsenic and both Lino and Lucretia were charged with his murder. In separate trials she was acquitted while he was convicted and executed. It is difficult to tell whether they had acted in concert in the murder; at least the jury gave her the benefit of the doubt" - McDade. An interesting study of early 19th-century social mores gender relations and racial issues. McDADE 169. COHEN 12416. unknown

TRIAL OF LUCRETIA CHAPMAN OTHERWISE CALLED LUCRETIA ESPOS Y MINA WHO WAS JOINTLY INDICTED WITH LINO AMALIA ESPOS Y MINA FOR THE MURDER OF WILLIAM CHAPMAN ESQ. LATE OF ANDALUSIA COUNTY OF BUCKS PENNSYLVANIA IN THE COURT OF OYER AND TERMINER HELD AT DOYLESTOWN FOR BUCKS DECEMBER TERM 1831 CONTINUED TO FEBRUARY TERM 1832. PREPARED FOR PUBLICATION BY. STUDENT OF LAW
Philadelphia: G.W. Mentz & Son 1832. Later cloth. 2 213 1 blank 11 pp. With the Supplement on the trial of Lino which as Cohen notes was sometimes excluded from the book. Scattered foxing lacks front free endpaper rear endpaper dirty light rubberstamp on title page Good. Lucretia "past forty and buxom" and Lino a young boarder who claimed to be the son of the Spanish governor of California became lovers; a decision was reached to rid themselves of Lucretia's inconvenient husband. "Five weeks after he arrived Lino purchased a quarter of a pound of arsenic from a Philadelphia druggist explaining that he used it in stuffing birds. The following day Mr. Chapman was taken ill; four days later he was dead." Soon thereafter the lovers "were quietly married in New York.Almost immediately the true character of the Spanish adventurer came out with the disappearance of the family silver and other obvious signs of his chicanery." His activities came to the attention of the police who decided to investigate Mr. Chapman's death. They discovered that "he was heavily dosed with arsenic" and arrested them both. This book contains all the material on Lucretia's trial. Lino was tried separately convicted and executed. Lucretia was acquitted. "It is difficult to tell whether they had acted in concert in the murder; at least the jury gave her the benefit of the doubt" quotations from McDade. McDade 169. Cohen 12416. G.W.

Du Bois WE. Burghardt editor W. E.
A SELECT BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE NEGRO AMERICAN. A COMPILATION MADE UNDER THE DIRECTION OF ATLANTA UNIVERSITY BY THE TENTH ATLANTA CONFERENCE
Atlanta: The Atlanta University Press 1905. 711pp. Later grey buckram with original front wrapper affixed to the front board. Old dark stain in gutter throughout minor chipping in gutter of first five leaves moderate toning to text. Upper outer corner of last leaf chipped just touching the page number. Good. The third and greatly expanded edition of an early and important study of the history and literature of African Americans edited by noted educator editor and author W.E.B. Du Bois. It is almost certainly the first bibliography of African Americana compiled by an African American. This third edition was preceded by a first edition of only four pages in 1900 and a second edition of eleven pages in 1901 both published by Atlanta University in 1900. This bibliography was created and expanded by Du Bois at an early and highly productive phase of his long and distinguished career as a writer while he was researching and writing his seminal and highly-influential study THE SOULS OF BLACK FOLK published in 1903. The work opens with a short preface followed by a brief breakdown of the Tenth Atlanta Conference an annual academic event focused on African-American higher education the resolutions of said conference and a "Bibliography of Bibliographies of the Negro American." These sections are followed by the main two sections of the work. The first and most substantial portion is the titular "Select Bibliography of the Negro American" which runs thirty-six pages and lists notable African-American works alphabetically by author. The second major section lists prominent African-American periodicals also alphabetically. The final few pages are addenda to the two main sections. In his Preface Du Bois calls the work "imperfect" but thought it "better to print a poor bibliography of this great subject in the hope of bettering it in future editions than to wait longer for those better situated to do the work." The dedication reads: "To Keep the Memory of Phillis Wheatley David Walker Frederick Douglass William Wells Brown George Washington Williams and Paul Laurence Dunbar the Dead Pioneers." Another dedication lists Anthony Benezet Thomas Clarkson William Lloyd Garrison Benjamin Lundy Lydia Maria Child and Harriet Beecher Stowe "whose pens were mightier than the sword." Two much shorter editions preceded the present edition - numbering four and eleven pages respectively. This expanded work provides a much deeper selection of African-American literary and historical works. Though this expanded 1905 publication is the third edition of Du Bois's groundbreaking bibliography it is still the earliest of the three bibliographies of African Americans written by African Americans listed in Work's section titled "A Bibliography of Bibliographies on the Negro in the United States." It preceded both Schomburg's BIBLIOGRAPHICAL CHECKLIST OF AMERICAN NEGRO POETRY 1916 and Work's own NEGRO YEAR BOOK 1925. This third edition is the only edition of Du Bois's bibliography listed by Work. WORK p.632. The Atlanta University Press hardcover books
