Je les attendais car j'ai bien souvent prié pour lui. Remerciez bien le Bon Dieu. Nous devrions mettre autant et plus de soin à remercier Dieu des grâces accordées qu'à les lui demander. Dis à ce cher enfant de se montrer reconnaissant. Qu'il voue au service de Dieu la vie que Dieu lui a laissée. La mère Saint Dominique te remercie bien du bon souvenir que tu lui gardes. Je lui ai montré tes lettres et je sais qu'elle t'aime beaucoup. Leur ouvre va toujours bien. Elles sont très aimées ici par les dames de toute la société. Ton ornement est à notre petite chapelle domestique. Toutes les fois qu'il sert, je suis heureux de penser que votre travail sert à la messe. Vous aurez une part des prières qui s'y font. Adieu cher sour Je vous embrasse de tous coeur. Ton frère Augustin. » Cette lettre a été publié avec quelques autres sur le blog du Bibliomane Moderne le 14 octobre 2021.

C'est un de mes anciens élèves, un excellent chrétien, je suis en correspondance avec lui. Il a gardé pour moi un souvenir de bien bonne amitié et je le lui rends grandement. Il était attaché militaire du gouverneur général du Tonkin et rentre avec lui par le Salazie. Je l'ai prié de faire ta connaissance. Je crois que tu n'y trouveras que du plaisir. Il a été élevé à Metz avec les Purnot(?), les Guerquin(?). Madame Colombel sera peut-être heureuse de parler d'eux avec cet excellent colonel à Paris. Il habite rue Pauque23 (Champs-Elysées).

1955rif. 3044np: unknown 1955. Saddle-stapled octavo 6 x 8-3/4 inches in photo-illustrated wraps 6 pages. Very good condition pages toned with light edge wear and some paper clip imprints and creasing to top edge. Revered J.A. Delaine was a civil rights leader and minister at the Greater St. James African Methodist Episcopal Church in Lake City South Carolina after transferring from Pine Grove A.M.E. Church in Summerton South Carolina where he worked on the Briggs v. Elliott desegregation case in 1950-1 and though ruled against in Charleston it would be the first of five cases appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court that ultimately led to Brown v. Board of Education decision in 1954. DeLaine was under constant harassment during his ministry work in Clarendon County and then Lake City following the Brown v. Board of Education case with abject neglect from local law enforcement given the documented threats and evidence to support his endangerment. The cover photo of this pamphlet shows DeLaine and his family standing atop the remnants of their Summerton home that burned down while the fire department watched in 1950 an event that led to his transfer. Following the landmark Supreme Court ruling on October 6 1955 The Greater St. James Church was burned to the ground. The following day shots were fired on DeLaine's home from a car to which he responded with reciprocal gunfire receiving a warrant for his arrest as the 4 white passengers and driver of the instigating car were declared innocent. DeLaine fled and was reported missing as of October 11 1955 having fled the state's unjust assault and battery charges for which he wouldn't receive a federal fugitive warrant from Eisenhower in the following months of the same year and would continue to evade South Carolina extradition. Four decades later he was pardoned in the year 2000. After leaving Lake City in October 1955 DeLaine went to New York City and then onto Buffalo where he would establish a new A.M.E. Church. This scarce pamphlet documents the work of DeLaine Levi Pearsons Harry Briggs the NAACP and others in the Clarendon County school case of 1950 and fellow cases which would support the Brown v. Board of Education ruling in 1954. The State Columbia SC 20 October 1955; The Item Sumter SC 20 October 1955; The State Columbia SC 14 October 1955. [unknown] unknown

1880rif. 81962Adelaide: E. Spiller Government Printer 1880. Paperback. Very Good. Adelaide E. Spiller Government Printer 1880/ 1878. Octavo 24 pages. Title-wrappers slightly marked and a little dusty; tear to one leaf expertly closed; bottom corner of another leaf a little marked; a very good copy. First published as a separate pamphlet in 1878 it was reissued in 1879 as an addendum to Taplin's 'The Folklore Manners Customs and Languages of the South Australian Aborigines' and reprinted the following year with reset contents page and variant title page. The title page differs in a number of ways: the recently deceased author is now referred to as 'the late'; the Government Printer is E. Spiller not W.C. Cox; the date is 1880 and different fonts have been used. Interestingly we have discovered that both the 1878 and 1880 imprints have been used as addenda to the 1879 book and it is almost certainly another way of determining the status of the original photographs in that work.

1719rif. 45476Lisboa occidental Lisbon: Officina de Pascoal da Sylva. Good. Second Edition. Vellum. 12mo; 19 f 522 & 6 f pages; Text in Portuguese. Manual de meditações para todos os dias do ano oferecido à Santíssima Virgem Maria Nossa Senhora concebida sem a mancha da culpa original: Pelo Padre Francisco De Matos da Companhia de Jesus e Província do Brasil. Lisboa occidental: na officina de Pascoal da Sylva impressor de Sua Magestade. M. DCCXIX. 1719 "Com todas as licenças necessarias." 12mo. signatures A-Z-12 Aa-10. 19 ff 522 & 6 ff. index. Contemporary limp vellum. Text block very nearly detached from the binding the connection is now dependent on a bit of sewing at the lower headband. Two short clusters of leaves with minor worm tracks. Lacks two leaves -- R2 and almost all of leaf Aa2 of which just an upper corner remains. Rare. Not in OCLC. The author Francisco de Mattos was born in 1636 in Lisbon where he entered the Jesuit order in 1652. He traveled to the Northeast of Brazil to make his noviciate in Bahia -- returned to Portugal where Padre Mattos served as Procurador-general for the S.J. Upon his return to Brazil Padre Mattos became rector of the Jesuit colleges at Rio de Janeiro and Bahia. He became Provincial Professor of the humanities philosophy and theology and died in Bahia in 1720. This rare little book seems to be a second edition of these "meditações". BLPL cites an edition of this title published in 1717 at the printing office Universidade Évora Portugal. Moraes also describes a more substantial work by Padre Francisco de Mattos -- a chronological biography of the founder of his order published the previous year with an imprint identical to our work printed by Pascoal da Sylva in Lisboa occidental. see Vida chronologica de S. Ignacio de Loyola fundador da Companhia de Jesus offerecida ao Illistrissimo Senhor Arcebispo da Bahia . This is a rare contribution to Brazilian literature in every respect save for the formal location in Lisbon of its printer. Printing in Brazil did not begin formally for nearly another 90 years after this little volume was printed. . 1719. Officina de Pascoal da Sylva hardcover

Morganton NC: Published Periodically in the interest of the Morganton Missions by the Rev. George Hilton B.A. L.Th. Durham England Priest-in-Charge 1917. First Edition. Octavo bifolium 26.5x17.25cm; photographs of the St. Margaret's Day School and of a "Mountain home." Light rubbing and wrinkling; horizontal mail folds; overall Very Good and sound. An unrecorded leaflet relaying news on the Cotton Mill Workers Mission The Mountain Missions and the St. Stephen's colored Mission in and around Morganton North Carolina. The newsletter touches upon World War I acknowledging the need to for Belgian Armenian and Syrian relief funds though cautioning that the work of the Red Cross should not displace support for the Mission. The St. Stephen's Colored Mission is in want of a "colored worker" to lead it and here gives updates on the ongoing search for one. The isolated mountain communities also remain in search of a school teacher after Miss Kilburn had to depart apparently leaving the local schoolchildren "awful lonesome." A rare look into a small but determined community; we find no record of this publication in retail auction records or institutional holdings.
