rif. 26295Kennington’s letters: 11 June 26 September and 7 October 1956; all on his letterhead of Homer Ipsden Oxon. Replies of 20 June and 3 and 10 October 1956. See Kennington’s entry in the Oxford DNB. All six items in good condition lightly aged. Previously pinned together with Kennington’s letters folded for postage and all three are 1p 8vo and signed ‘Eric Kennington’. ONE: Kennington ALS 11 June 1956. Having conferred with Ackroyd’s clerk ‘Mr. Osborne’ he explains that he cannot give his attention to the portrait until September. ‘I habitually visit my sitter for that takes less of his time & energy & he is more at ease in his own surroundings.’ He explains the arrangements he would prefer ending ‘I do much more than the 5 hours so shall need a cover to work alone when you are not sitting.’ TWO: Kennington ALS ‘Wed 26’ September 1956. Begins: ‘In uncertainty I approached Osborne with your suggestion of an oil painting different in conception & size. His answer is surprisingly definite. They want only the head & shoulders like those at Skinners’ Hall.’ He explains that what he has done ‘supplies their demand so I will take it to them before painting as I expect their architect will be instructive about the frame. Then I will bring it to you.’ He assumes that as a result the arranged sittings will not be secretary and hopes that ‘you & others will not be put out’. He ends by thanking him for ‘making a portrait possible in your immense activity. From impressions here it seems to have unusual force but I know it is only one vision. Less charming than commanding I think’. THREE: Kennington ALS 7 October 1956. He apologises ‘having evidently made a mess & trying to do the correct thing. / The Carpenter’s sic may not at all like this portrait! I can never be certain. The delay is caused by framers. This week I shall take it to them boxed securely but unframed.’ He thanks him for ‘suggesting a frame from The Guildhall Library. Again I cannot decide. I have found the architects of City Companies always definite on this point.’ He ends with thanks for Ackroyd’s ‘good wishes re Clerkendon Church. The Parish has become filled with joy & keenness in their pride at saving their own roof. There are even 8 men carving new decorations for the renewed roof and wonderfully efficiently. / Wishing complete success to St. Mary-le-Bow’. ITEMS FOUR to SIX: Unsigned carbons of replies the first from ‘Vice-Admiral T. B. Drew CB. CVO. OBE.’ In Item Five 3 October 1956 Ackroyd writes expresses regret that Kennington ‘approached the Clerk regarding the painting because of course his answer would conform to the instructions given him by the Committee and I would have wished that you had left it to me to have dealt with the matter’. After suggesting that he should not ‘waste any money upon a frame’ he apologises again: ‘I was hoping that together we could have produced something worthy of a great Company’. He concludes with wishes for ‘every success in your work and in the work of the Church which you serve with such enthusiasm’. Kennington’s letters: 11 June, 26 [September] and 7 October 1956; all on his letterhead of Homer, Ipsden, Oxon. Replies of 20 unknown

rif. 98119401Japan 1875. A small folding album 8 x 17 cm. original blue covers 18p. accordion folded soiled covers verso blank but evidence of a Japanese practicing his attempt at writing in English alphabet128 color woodcut illustrations. A very charming early attempt to teach the Japanese English alphabetical letters and numerals. Folded and reading from traditional left to right this work shows the Japanese the familiar "IROHA" alphabet in both Katakana & Romanized alph- abetical letters Romaji with Hiragana above. The most fa- scinating part are the profuse color woodblock illustrations of familiar Japanese objects each with Romanized letters & the appropriate Japanese. Such cute things as Inu Roonin Hato Niwatori Potsukkuri Pokkuri Hyotan Tonbo Ringo Dobin Soroban Taiko DaikonYoroi Wakizashi Kani Katsuo and a plethora of others. This work basically was used to train the Japanese to read Romaji first for familiar objects and thus begin the process of learning English ultimately to read English letters. Works of this subject are now quite RARE and seldom come to market many were basically used up in the learning process. This example well used cover soil bit thumbed but remarkably complete. Back cover has the Sumi penned date: Meiji 7 nen with a later cover title slip pasted on and Sumi ink title written. Brief commentary on the English language some text worn away balance complete. unknown

1604rif. AMO-3383Par Me. David Chabodie, Docteur en médecine. A Paris, chez Toussaint Du Bray, 1604 2 parties reliées en 1 volume petit in-8 (17 x 11 cm) de 1 feuillet de titre, 15 feuillets non chiffrés (épitre à Messire Charles de Pierre-Busière et de Combort, baron de Chateauneuf, Peirac, etc., lieutenant général pour sa Majesté au haut et bas pays de Limousin ; extrait du privilège, etc.) ; 128 feuillets + 86 feuillets. Collationné complet (à noter une interversion de cahier (G - p. 49 à 57) passées du livre I au livre II (et inversement). Légères mouillures sans gravité. Reliure demi-basane du milieu du XIXe siècle. Reliure bien conservée. intérieur frais malgré quelques petits travaux de vers dans les marges de quelques feuillets. La page de titre est ornée d'une belle marque gravée sur bois (le bas de la page de titre a été éraflé avec pour conséquence la perte d'une partie de la date et de la mention de privilège. Edition originale. L'exemplaire de la Bibliothèque nationale de France début par un titre frontispice gravé mais ne possède pas de page de titre typographique. Il s'agit pourtant, comparaisons faites pages à pages, du même tirage que notre exemplaire. Ce petit traité de morale va en réalité bien au delà. Si le premier livre traite des aspects de la foi, de la morale et du salut de l'âme, la seconde partie traite quant à elle de la philosophie, des sciences et de la métaphysique. On y trouve une multitude de chapitres traités assez succinctement tels que la médecine, les mathématiques, la musique, la géométrie, l'astronomie, les arts (dont l'alchimie ou Spagirie), les notions morales telles que la sagesse, l'intelligence, la prudence, la vertu. La fin du livre contient un chapitre consacré à la résurrection des corps. Ce livre semble avoir été peu étudié et les exemplaires semblent fort rares. On ne sait que très peu de choses sur David Chabodie, médecin exerçant à Limoges à la fin du XVIe siècle (vers 1595) et né à Rochechouart. Il était diplomé de la faculté de médecine de Montpellier. Il fut atteint de la peste en 1596. Il est noté dans un ouvrage que son seul ouvrage (qui semble celui-ci) s'attache plus à la métaphysique qu'à la médecine. Il existerait une autre édition de 1607. Chabodie aurait été un protestant converti, probablement en 1627 (Bulletin de la Société archéologique et historique du Limousin, vol. 42). Il serait mort vers 1640. Le Petit monde de Chabodie est à rapprocher, toutes proportions gardées, de La Sagesse de Charron (Bordeaux, 1601), basé sur la même étude de l'homme-microcosme. L'influence des Essais de Montaigne n'est également pas loin. "Ouvrage devenu assez rare." (Dictionnaire encyclopédique des sciences médicales, 1873, tome 14, p. 629 "Curieux et rare" (Bulletin du bouqiniste, Janvier 1863, n° 2.534) Bon exemplaire.
