1831réf. BK0169Philadelphia: William F. Geddes 1831. 2 12 2 pp. Stitched pamphlet measuring 4 ¼ x 7 inches. Good plus with scattered foxing and soiling some wear to edges. An early appeal for organized missionary work among Philadelphia's urban poor issued upon the establishment of the Philadelphia City Mission in March 1831. The organization brought together Christians from several evangelical denominations to reach residents who rarely or never attended church. Its organizers acknowledged that poverty itself could prevent participation in religious life citing "the want of suitable apparel or the want of provision for the poor in our places of worship-into this last reason every Church may do well to inquire." The pamphlet begins by describing the large numbers of people living in Philadelphia and its surrounding districts who remained outside the ordinary reach of the churches: "The most inattentive christian observer must have remarked that there are many persons in the City and Liberties who live in the habitual neglect of the public worship of God and are as destitute of spiritual life as if they were a thousand miles removed from the sound of the Gospel." The Mission proposed to carry religious instruction directly into poorer neighborhoods through home visits prayer meetings the distribution of Bibles and tracts and efforts to increase attendance at Sabbath and infant schools. Its members were to be drawn from different evangelical denominations and required to demonstrate personal piety before undertaking missionary work. An interesting document of Philadelphia's early urban missionary movement particularly for its recognition of the economic and social barriers separating the city's poorer inhabitants from established religious institutions. .

1856réf. 4036Mexico City: Imprenta de Ignacio Cumplido 1856. Still very good. 17pp. Original printed wrappers bound into full calf front board gilt lettered. Some toning and scattered light foxing. This law was promulgated at the end of 1856 by the new liberal government of Mexico following its ascendancy in the mid-1850s and preceded the reform Constitution of 1857 by two months. Its statutes defined "crimes against the independence and security of the nation" including various forms of treason rebellion and foreign military service or assistance and made them punishable by death. The law anticipated conservative resistance and revolt against the new policies of the liberal faction that aimed to strip power and influence from the church and traditional aristocracy of the country. Their efforts indeed led to full-scale civil war in 1858 and the second French intervention in the early 1860s. OCLC locates a small handful of institutional copies and we locate just one in available sales records. Scarce and in attractive original wrappers. Imprenta de Ignacio Cumplido unknown books
