1810ref. 20136Newburyport: W. & J. Gilman 1810. FIRST EDITION. Original calf-backed boards spine label; interior somewhat browned due to paper stock. An amazing survival. First edition though Faust’s Catechism had been printed in 1795 with a second edition in 1798. Faust 1755-1842 was a German obstetrician and writer who produced a range of texts designed at improving health amongst the general public. His “Health Catechism” Gesundheits-katechismus Zum Gebrauche in Den Schulen und Beim Häuslichen Unterrichte Bückeburg 1794 was aimed at children and used a popular question and answer format which was designed to help people – especially youth – memorize the information. Faust’s writing reflects a trend amongst some medical professionals of the early nineteenth century to conflate health and spiritual concerns where attending to the body became part of moral practice. Children here are taught to interpret care for their bodies as a moral duty reinforcing his claims with bible verses on similar topics. Notably and reflecting the growth in utilitarian ideas that saw pleasure and pain as drivers of human behavior the healthy body is a happy body and pain and unpleasant emotions signs of physical and moral disorder. According to the “Advertisement” prefacing the text “in the compilation of this work Dr. Faust's Catechism of health improved and corrected by Dr. Gregory of Edinburgh has been taken for the foundation; a few observations are omitted as being foreign to the situation and habits of society in this country; and copious additions have been made by selections from the writings of medical men of the first respectability and talents but principally from Willich’s Lectures on diet and regimen and Parkinson's Medical admonitions.” Austin 763.

ref. 25629‘Temple May 26’ no year. The interesting context of the present item is explained in a quotation from Antony Chessell’s 2009 biography of Hayward subtitled ‘one of the Two Best Read Men in England’ - the other was Macaulay subjoined to this entry. See also the entries for Hayward and Lewis in the Oxford DNB. 4pp 12mo. Bifolium. Sixty lines of text. In good condition lightly aged. Folded for postage. Addressed to ‘My dear Lewis’ and signed ‘A. Hayward’. He begins by expressing regret that ‘any misapprehension has arisen from the introduction of Sir J Graham’s name in the Memorandum. It certainly was not our intention to reiterate or revive directly or indirectly any charge against anyone. Sir R. Peel Sir J. Walsham & Mr Nott were involved in the charges as well as Sir J. Graham and yourself but as you are the sole prosecutor we to confine the arrangement exclusively to you.’ He continues on the same theme with reference to ‘Sir F. Thesiger’ ‘Charles Greville’ ‘the Adjutant General Macdonald’ ‘Lord John Manners’. Postscript: ‘I told you that Ferrand expressed himself perfectly satisfied and that there is not the remotest chance of his reviving the matter.’ The subject of the letter is Tory MP William Busfeild Ferrand 1809-1889. Chessell explains: ‘Two letters by Ferrand in The Times in August 1844 accused Sir James Graham Home Secretary under Sir Robert Peel from 1841 until 1846 and George Lewis of conspiring to produce a false report designed to discredit him as chairman of the Keighley Board of Guardians. This prompted Lewis to consider legal action but many other matters intervened and the final incentive to do so was only triggered in 1847. / ‘The Queen v. Ferrand Esq. M.P.’ was due to be heard in the Hilary Term between January and March 1847 but the trial was delayed to await Ferrand’s plea. In response Lewis denied any conspiracy between himself and Graham. Abraham Hayward who was not part of Lewis’s legal team then acted as an intermediary in persuading Ferrand to retract his letters. With Hayward acting for Lewis and Lord John Manners acting for Ferrand a statement was inserted in The Times on November 18th 1847 to include a formal memorandum in which Mr. Ferrand recognised that he had acted in haste and expressed regret that he had done so.’ ‘Temple May 26’ [no year]. unknown
