Best.-Nr. 13238Without date or place. 6pp. 4to numbered 4-9. Carbon copies on six leaves. In fair condition on aged and creased paper. The account does not appear to have been published and indeed could not have been published during wartime. It may be that it was written for an editor at the Daily Express but the extent of revision and emendation suggests that it was written with an eye to publication after the war. The first page numbered 4 begins after an eight-line deleted passage: 'Reynold's second-in-command is Major Mc.Cormack a whimsical helpful little Northern Irishman with strong Evangelical views. He & the four Chief Press Officers handled me amiably enough; none individually seems responsible for the rows & inconveniences which occur daily. Then there are the Conducting Officers - hearty convivial cavalrymen who wouldn't profess to know much about any periodical but the Field & Country Life. One of them said to me the other night "Hickey . . . . Oh yes I've read your stuff. You do cats in the Sunday Times don't you" Research established that he was referring to Nat Gubbins in the Sunday Express. Some of the reporters find this Bullingdon manner a little overwhelming; others say that they are useful on the job since they are on Christian-name terms with the OC of every unit visited.' At the foot of the first page he begins his description of how 'The King's visit brought the rows & inconveniences to a climax. To begin with elaborate arrangements had been made to keep all news of it secret till after he had returned to England. On the day the King sailed for France it was decided in London to release the news at once after all. But the first that PR in France knew of this decision was hours after the King's arrival when someone happened to be listening in & heard the news on the BBC.' Then the censorship fell into its most jittery mood. We were allowed to say that the news had been left secret till the King's arrival which was obvious. We were not allowed to say that the release came as a surprise to us in France: any hint that deprartmental co-ordination is not 100% perfect is regarded wrongly I think as dangerous. We were not allowed to quote even such amusing details as the pseudonyms by which for secrecy the King had been spoken of beforehand: even among ourselves we had to day "When Mr Harris arrives . . ."; some of the PR staff called him "Mr Big."' He addresses the reader: 'You have heard already of the curious fool arrangement by which glimpses of the King were rationed among the reporters.' He explains that the official description of the 'conference on the day the King lunched with Lebrun & Daladier' was 'not even accurate. There had been no exchange of toasts. There had been only one toast: the King as host had drunk the President of the Republic's health. The reporter put this in his story; found later to his fury that a censor had struck it out writing in instead the smug "Cordial toasts were exchanged".' He discusses the role of the censors. The last page numbered 9 concludes: 'Our reporters are annoyed by all this nonsense & tiresomeness; but its effect on the Americans is likely to be serious. . Red tape presented at least one glowingly pro-British news-agency story of the King's visit from appearing in 1500 newspapers mostly in America. The agency man was away that day. He asked another accredited war reporter to cover the story for him.' From the Driberg papers. See Image. Without date or place. unknown

1782Best.-Nr. 00TP08Paris France 1782. On June 13th 1782 'Docteur rege de la Faculte de Medecine en L'Universite de Paris ancien Proffesseur de les Ecoles.' Etienne Pourfour-de-Petit first hired by the University in 1732 writes the Faculty beseeching that the Faculty honor and uphold his 1760 retirement 'edict'. Superbly interesting document that highlights the struggles of the revolutionary period and transition of power. The Professor obviously a monarchist and of the 'ancien regime' is faced with a new board made up of the rebels. Easily read is a certain disdain to the new Faculty members his deep respect for the Monarch but also an embracing of the new revolutionary ideas. Biographical Notes: SIR THOMAS PHILLIPPS 1792-1872. Born in 1792 Sir Thomas Phillipps from childhood was obsessed with the idea of obtaining virtually anything written or printed on paper including cartloads of documents from wastepaper merchants and the entire inventories of booksellers. "I wish to have one copy of every book in the world" he declared to a friend. He very nearly succeeded. His collection ultimately grew to more than 100000 books and at least 60000 manuscripts. As a result of his extravagant purchases Sir Thomas was permanently on the verge of bankruptcy and was constantly pursued by creditors. So many books arrived at his house that it was impossible to unpack his acquisitions much less keep pace with them. Visiting scholars driven to distraction would spend days hunting for an elusive text in the dusty heaps that filled every room. Because Sir Thomas has a morbid dread of fire most of his collection was housed in coffinlike boxes that could be carted away quickly. Visitors to Middle Hill were struck too by the presence of numerous logs a ploy he used to lure beetles away from his books. As Sir Thomas relentlessly pursued his passion the house itself began to crumble and its floors started to sag under the cast weight of hundreds of tons of paper. His neglect of Middle Hill was partly deliberate however. Sir Thomas's chief enemy in life James Halliwell had married his daughter against his wishes. It appears that Halliwell was in Sir Thomas' eyes the worst kind of criminal a book thief who had stolen valuable works from university libraries and even from his father-in-law. Having no sons Sir Thomas was unable to prevent Halliwell from inheriting his estate. To ensure that his detested heir would never receive anything of value Sir Thomas's solution was to allow Middle Hill to fall unto complete disrepair. He even went so far as to chop down and sell for lumber the centuries-old oak trees that lined the majestic mile-long drive to his home. In 1863 Sir Thomas decided to move - in order to accommodate his books. With the aid of 160 men 103 wagonloads of books and papers drawn by 230 horses the books were lumbered from Middle Hill top their new estate in nearby Cheltenham. It is said that for years afterwards the countryside was littered with the remains of carts that had collapsed under the sheer weight of the Phillipps collection. Sir Thomas continues to add to his library until his death in 1872. After Sir Thomas's death his immediate family had no room for his collection. So vast was the library that although individual items and large sections were sold privately or through numerous auction sales the Phillipps collection is still being sold more than a century after the death of its owner. In the course of its sales many treasures have come to light. As late as 1964 part of the long-lost and unique medieval manuscript of the Roman poet Ovid's Metamorphoses appeared and was subsequently reunited with its other half at Magdalen College Oxford. Once destined for destruction as worthless wastepaper this and many other priceless works were saved by the single-minded obsession of the greatest bibliomaniac of all time. Autograph. Manuscript.

This pamphlet was written in response to the Clergy Disqualification Act of 1801 which formally banned ordained members of the Church of England from election to the House of Commons. The status of ministers in other denominations was left ambiguous as was the status of Anglican clergymen elected prior to the Act's passage. The work disagrees with proponents of the Act arguing that the election of clergy ties the clergy to the state and creates a shared sense of civic unity. Banning the election of clergy on the other hand creates a diminished and disaffected class of citizens and deprives constituents of the liberty to select from the widest possible array of candidates. The Act would not be overturned until 2001. This is a rare title. OCLC locates 2 copies Harvard University of Cambridge. No copies listed on Library Hub. unknown

What came to be known as the 'Aborigines report' documented wide spread frontier violence and had a major impact on the debates about how Aboriginal peoples were to be treated in British colonies.

The Select Committee on the State of Public Records was commissioned by the House of Commons in 1800 to assess the location condition and types of public records in the United Kingdom. Though public record keeping was an important tradition in Britain there had been no comprehensive parliamentary proceedings on the matter since the 1731 Cotton Library fire. Chaired by Charles Abbot a barrister politician and Fellow of the Royal Society and supported by a number of prominent clerks librarians and lawyers the committee began investigating in February and submitted its first report on July 4th 1800. A second report was issued soon after. The committee found that the kingdom's public records covered a significant period of time with some dating to the Domesday Book but that there were serious issues with storage indexing and cataloguing that made them difficult to access and often in danger of succumbing to fire or dampness. It recommended the creation and construction of specialized public record offices the standardization of record keeping and administrative practices and the compilation and printing of indexes and calendars to guide researchers. Both reports were republished at the request of the House of Lords in March 1801. The committee's work led to the establishment of the Record Commissions which would operate from 1800-1837 and produce a number of important publications. These in turn gave way to the Public Record Office now the National Archives of the UK. unknown
