1764réf. 838641764. BARD Samuel. ALS to John Bard 5 May 1764 Edinburgh. Folded sheet 4pp. Mild foxing old tape repairs to pp. 3/4 hole in paper where seal was broken with minor loss of text. Accompanied by three prints with some minor dampstaining. Overall very good. Bard 1742-1821 son of New York physician John Bard took his medical degree in Edinburgh and studied there between 1761 and 1765 before returning home and joining his father's practice. He went on to found the first medical hospital in New York and to briefly serve as George Washington's private physician. This letter however is a chatty missive of a young student to his parents thanking his mother for a box of sweetmeats updating his father on a deal to purchase land in Montpellier France and asking for money to pay his food bills from the previous winter. The final page turns to explaining that the final week of the semester has been so busy he cannot possibly write any more news. This letter is accompanied by three prints: two views of Columbia College c. 1831 where Bard had established a medical school founded on the Edinburgh model and one portrait of Samuel Bard. unknown

Barde Frederick S. compiler. Life and Adventures of "Billy" Dixon of Adobe Walls Texas Panhandle. Guthrie TX: Published by Co-Operative Printing Co. 1914. First Edition. Blue cloth titles stamped in gold gilt on the front cover and spine. 320 pages. Numerous b/w photographs. Dixon was born in Ohio County West Virginia on September 25 1850. He was orphaned when he was 12 years-old and sent to live with uncle in the fall of 1864. He worked as a woodcutter along the Missouri River and later worked as a government contractor in Kansas. He tried a couple other jobs but in the winter of 1868 he "joined a group who were hunting and trapping on the Saline River northwest of Fort Hays Kansas." For a short time Billy had a ranch supply store with a partner manager who sold the merchandise and departed with the money. Billy returned to hunting buffalo sometimes having 4-5 hunters/skinners working for him." In 1872 Billy had moved to Dodge City and in the fall and winter in 1872 and 1873 marked the beginning of the "high tide of buffalo hunting and they were killed by the thousands. "Early in the morning of June 27 1874 a combined force of some 700 Comache Cheyenne Koowa and Arapho warriors led by Comanch Chief Quanah Parker and Isa-tai attacked the buffalo camp at Adobe Walls the second battle of Adobe Walls. It was in this battle that Dixon and 26 addition men and one women were forced into two stores and a saloon to stand off the Indians. It was here that Dixon became a hero when he supposedly knocked an Indian off his horse from nearly a mile away. The battle for Adobe Walls came to an end. A few months later Dixon and a group of six other men were attacked by Indians. Dixon and his men took shelter in a buffalo wallow. For three days they managed to hold off the Indians. One man was killed and the remaining six were wounded before the Indians turned away because of freezing rain. Dixon and the other survivors of "The Buffalo Wallow Fight" were awarded the Medal of Honor. Dixon continued to work with the Army until 1883 when the returned to civilian life. He married Olive King Dixon and they had seven children. On March 9 1913 he died of pneumonia. His remains are now interred at the Adobe Walls site. Much of the above information was gained from Kathy Weiser/Legends of America updated June 2017 either quoted or paraphrased. She has done a wonderful job summarizing the life of Billy Dixon and deserves credit for it. . unknown
1914réf. 54641Guthrie Oklahoma: Co-Operative Publishing Co. 1914. 1914. First Edition. 8vo. Green Cloth 320 pp. Frontis. Preface Illustrations from old photographs. "A narrative in which is described many things relating to the early Southwest with an account of the fight between Indians and buffalo hunters at Adobe Walls and the desperate engagement at Buffalo Wallow for which Congress voted the Medal of Honor to the survivors." Born in West Virginia in 1850 Billy Dixon lived in Missouri from 1862 until 1865 when he took a job with a freight contractor as a bull-whacker and mule-skinner in Kansas. He freighted throughout western Kansas and Nebraska and eastern Colorado for 4 years. In 1869 Dixon joined a hunting and trapping venture in the Saline River Valley northwest of Fort Hays. Billy's excellent marksmanship soon led him to the highly profitable trade in buffalo hides. He invested in a supply store and did quite well until his partner "sold out" and took off with the proceeds during Billy's absence. He hunted the Texas Panhandle in the early and mid 1870's. Billy Dixon was one of 28 men and 1 woman who fought off a large party of hostile Indians in the second Battle of Adobe Walls. He scouted for Gen. Nelson Miles in 1874 when carrying dispatches to Fort Supply Dixon and 5 others were attacked by Indians. Billy Dixon received the Congressional Medal of Honor for his part in the action. Still scouting for General Miles Dixon was present at the rescue of the Germaine sisters from the Cheyenne in November 1874. Dixon saved the Nolan Expedition in 1877 by leading them to water while in pursuit of hostile Comanches on the Staked Plains. Dixon returned to civilian life in 1883. He worked on the Turkey Trot Ranch before homesteading at the site of the original Adobe Walls. Eventually he homesteaded again in Cimarron County Oklahoma where he died in 1913. An excellent biography. Some moderate soiling and a small puncture to cloth on upper and fore-edge portion of front cover. Some light wear to spine ends and corners. Very good. Signed by "Billy's" wife Olive Dixon who wrote the Preface to the book. An historically important biography! Co-Operative Publishing Co., 1914. hardcover
