1857ref. 173408London: Bell & Daldy 1857. First edition. This is Nixon's account of his cruise through the Bass Strait during which he stayed with Aboriginal communities and examined how they lived from their haircuts to "the native potato so called by the colonists though never tasted by them and having not the most remote relation to the plant of that name except in a little resemblance of the tubers in shape and appearance to the kidney potato" p. 27. Francis Russell Nixon 1803-1879 was the first Bishop of Tasmania who embarked on his 1854 expedition to help the recently immigrated families who had little access to the church due to the remoteness of the area. During his two-month trip he established a chapel in Launceston which developed into a thriving congregation by his departure. Nixon served as bishop during a confusing period as for close to a decade of his tenure the island was still receiving thousands of convicts annually. He did not enjoy his posting with his superiors having a poor opinion of his work and so he relished personal endeavours more than his ministerial role being an "accomplished musician and artist" ODNB.

ref. MB12Octavo ca. 185x122 cm 5 x 7 ¾ in. 2 pp. Brown ink on yellow wove paper. Light soiling and fold marls but overall a very good letter. Historically important manuscript letter from the early days of Oregon Territory est. in 1848 illustrating the construction of one of the earliest hotels in the Dalles inc. in 1857. The author Joseph Nixon ca. 1824-1892 was a native of Virginia who moved to Linn County O. T. in 1852. Originally a blacksmith Nixon constructed the renowned Umatilla Hotel in the Dalles in 1858. The first-class establishment located near the steamboat landing became a favored stop for miners navigating the Dalles River and was considered one of the finest hotels in the area. Nixon sold the hotel within a couple of years and by 1860 was listed as a carpenter and later as county treasurer in the Dalles. The hotel endured until 1929 eventually succumbing to fires and restorations before its final demolition. The letter dated 12 September 1858 is addressed to Daniel J. Hubbard ca. 1829-1890 a pioneer of Washington Territory and a farmer in the Chambers Prairie area near Olympia. In the 1850s Hubbard served as a non-commissioned officer at Washington Fort Dalles where he likely crossed paths with Nixon. In the text full of grammatical mistakes Nixon updates “Friend Hubbard” on the latest news from the Dalles and enthusiastically shares the nearing completion of the Umatilla Hotel. He mentions the expected finish date after months of hard work and proudly recounts two successful balls held at the hotel. He also remarks on the lack of reliable news from the mines likely referring to the Fraser River Gold Rush and discusses other Washington pioneers including Hubbard’s neighbor George Tykel. Overall historically interesting original letter from the early days of Oregon Territory. The text of the letter: Friend Hubbard. I take my pen in hand to let you no that I am in good health at present. Hoping this may find you and all of the – in good health. Times here are much the saim as when you lef. No news of any reliabel sorse from the mines as yet from this way. I am abot to finish my house at last. I have about one months work on it. Your friends here are all in good health. There has been 2 balls at my house. They went off very nice. They were attended by the first 23 & second 28 couples. John has gone to Walla Walla. As I just wrote you a letter a few days since o I have no news to write. Give my respects to friends Tycle George Tykel also all of the fair sex. Write often. unknown
