Best.-Nr. 19674Shields South Shields Northumberland . 27 February no year circa 1786 . 4pp. 4to. In fair condition on aged and worn paper. An excellent letter on an unusual subject written in forthright style. The author – who like the recipient is a member of the local mercantile community – gets down to business immediately: 'Sir The late great demand for Bottles in England was the effect of Mr Pits sic commercial Treaty with France. A Bottle in France costs the Manufacturer nearly double to what an english Bottle costs one reason of which is the French have no other fuel than Newcastle Coals One Keel of Coal at Rochelle stands to twenty five Pounds; in the river Tyne one Keel stands the Bottle Manufacturer to about four Pounds.' He proceeds to discuss excise duty English beer imported into France merchants. He poses the question: 'should no infringement be made on this Treaty will the Bottle Trade continue to flourish and be a desirable object of speculation I answer the profit which the English manufacturer now enjoys will gradually diminish though even the French treaty should be protracted a Century. Glass Houses will be multiplied in England & the loud clamour for Bottles will cease'. He recalls that sixteen years previously when 'unfortunately for myself' he became 'Wilsons private agent in London an Order for Bottles was obtained with great difficulty & much expense and tedious application did I use to conciliate the Friendship of Janson who was always deem'd a very eligible Customer I at last succeeded & fix'd him totally to the Shields Houses. Mr Wilson paid me with very liberal promises & Mr Deer without your interference will soon lose the valuable Customer I gain'd'. He presumes that the bottle trade 'will be slack this summer but flourish again on the approach of Winter.' He describes the 'vast local advantage' of the 'Shields Houses' as against the 'higher Houses'. He claims there are 'many enormous abuses' citing the fact that 'Mr Deer claims a Salary for no other reason that I know of than because he is Mr Deer.' He claims that Wilson has only ever paid Deer 'to make him hold his Tongue': 'if Mr Deer can produce any Book that he has kept for seven years back or prove any good that he has done by advice &c he may lay claim to his Salary. I will declare Wilsons Sentiments upon my honour or if required sanction my declaration by a legal oath'. Shields [ South Shields, Northumberland ]. 27 February [ no year, circa 1786 ]. unknown

1966Best.-Nr. 86324Orange Massachusetts: The Enterprise and Journal 1966. Presumed First Edition First printing. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Masha Arms Author photograph. 4m 272 pages Endpaper map. DJ is in a plastic sleeve. Minor edge soiling. Signed with sentiment by the author on page facing title page. Notation reads. With best wishes William T. Arms. Historical fiction set in Massachusetts during the French and Indian Wars. Salute to Courage is an exciting action story that mirrors the struggles of the pioneer settlers on the New England frontier during the final decade of the French and Indian wars. The major war events introduced in this work include Braddock's Defeat the Fall of Fort William Henry the capture of Louisburg of Fort Duquesne of Ticonderoga and of Quebec all show the influence of each of these events on the lives of the frontiersmen in their isolated stockaded forts. Colonel Ephraim William Lord Jeffrey Amherst Robert Rogers all appear in this work as does Abigail Crouch. William Tyler "Billy" Arms was born in 1904 in Deerfield and died in 1970. William's varied career began as a columnist for the New York Times. He later worked for the Foreign Broadcast Intelligence Service. His publications include The History of Leyden Massachusetts 1676-1959 1959 and Salute to Courage 1966. The French and Indian War 1754-1763 was a theater of the Seven Years' War which pitted the North American colonies of the British Empire against those of the French each side being supported by various Native American tribes. At the start of the war the French colonies had a population of roughly 60000 settlers compared with 2 million in the British colonies. The outnumbered French particularly depended on their native allies. Two years into the French and Indian War in 1756 Great Britain declared war on France beginning the worldwide Seven Years' War. Many view the French and Indian War as being merely the American theater of this conflict; however in the United States the French and Indian War is viewed as a singular conflict which was not associated with any European war. French Canadians call it the guerre de la Conquête 'War of the Conquest'. The British Pitt government fell due to disastrous campaigns in 1757 including a failed expedition against Louisbourg and the Siege of Fort William Henry; this last was followed by the Natives torturing and massacring their colonial victims. William Pitt came to power and significantly increased British military resources in the colonies at a time when France was unwilling to risk large convoys to aid the limited forces that they had in New France preferring to concentrate their forces against Prussia and its allies who were now engaged in the Seven Years' War in Europe. Between 1758 and 1760 the British military launched a campaign to capture French Canada. They succeeded in capturing territory in surrounding colonies and ultimately the city of Quebec 1759. The following year the British were victorious in the Montreal Campaign in which the French ceded Canada in accordance with the Treaty of Paris 1763. France also ceded its territory east of the Mississippi to Great Britain as well as French Louisiana west of the Mississippi River to its ally Spain in compensation for Spain's loss to Britain of Spanish Florida. Spain had ceded Florida to Britain in exchange for the return of Havana Cuba. France's colonial presence north of the Caribbean was reduced to the islands of Saint Pierre and Miquelon confirming Great Britain's position as the dominant colonial power in northern America.

The syndrome of acute radiation injury to be considered in this article is the term applied to the symptom complex or diseased state which results from exposure of the whole body or a major portion of it to the initial nuclear radiation of an atomic bomb. This term should be clearly distinguished from irradiation sickness which is commonly used to describe the symptom complex resulting from therapeutic irradiation. It should also be distinguished from surface radiation injury. This term is properly applied to injuries of the skin and subcutaneous tissues resulting from x-radiation or from contact or near contact with radioactive material such as fission products and induced radioactivity. Injuries of this type related to atomic energy are due largely to beta-ray-emitting isotopes. Internal radiation injury may result from the selective deposition such as in bone or thyroid of radioactive material that has been inhaled or absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract or wounds. Kimeldorf was a major scientific leader. His book with Ed Hunt entitled "Ionizing radiation: Neural function and behavior" is a thorough description of the physiological and behavioral effects of exposure to ionizing radiation. Charles L. Dunham was born in Evanston Illinois in 1906 and graduated from Yale University A.B. 1929 and the Rush Medical College of the University of Chicago M.D. 1934. He had no contact with nuclear medicine until he joined the Atomic Energy Commission in the summer of 1949 as Assistant Chief of the Medical Branch. Among his responsibilities at the AEC was its program in cancer research and the program on peaceful uses of the atom in medicine and medical research. When not too preoccupied with fallout and radiation health problems he used his position at the AEC to foster the development of nuclear medicine through the activities of the AEC medical laboratories and clinical facilities at Chicago Oak Ridge Brookhaven Berkeley and Los Angeles and through its nation-wide re search contract program. The AEC has honored him with its Distinguished Service Medal. Eugene P. Cronkite MD was born in Los Angeles California in 1917. He decided to pursue medicine and was accepted to Stanford University's medical school. After receiving his medical degree Dr. Cronkite joined the Navy and served as a medical corps lieutenant in World War II and as a director of the Naval Medical Research Institute in Maryland. He later left the Navy and began to study the effects of nuclear fallout. Among his subsequent achievements Dr. Cronkite identified links between radiation exposure and cancer developed a new treatment for leukemia and founded the International Society for Experimental Hematology. In 1971 he was elected president of ASH. Dr. Le Roy was a consultant to the Atomic Energy Commission and at one time a member of the Advisory Committee on Medical Uses of Isotopes of the Division of Licensing and Regulation of the Atomic Energy Commission. Shields Warren 26 February 1898 - 1 July 1980 was an American pathologist. He was among the first to study the pathology of radioactive fallout. American Medical Association paperback
