1779rif. BK0134Philadelphia: Joseph Crukshank 1779. 8vo contemporary calf 256 pp. With the ownership signatures of Jonah Woolman and Burr Woolman. Front board and preliminary page detached else good fair condition. A strong association copy of the first edition owned by Jonah Woolman 1733-1799 younger brother of the Quaker minister and abolitionist John Woolman and subsequently by Jonah's son Burr Woolman 1787-1844. Churchman and John Woolman were fellow ministers and worked together directly in the campaign against slaveholding among Friends. In his Journal Churchman records that in 1759 he and Woolman were engaged in "visiting some active members of our Society who held slaves" in Philadelphia and New Jersey; Woolman's own journal likewise records meeting Churchman by agreement in Philadelphia and spending much of a week visiting Friends who held enslaved people. The provenance connects Churchman's account to the immediate family of one of his collaborators in this work. Jonah Woolman was John Woolman's younger brother and Burr Woolman whose ownership signature also appears was Jonah's son. . Joseph Crukshank unknown

1789rif. List2987Philadelphia Pennsylvania 1789. Single three-page letter measuring 7 ¾ x 9 ¾ inches. Folded with large tears at folds; excellent. A letter from H. Cathrall in Philadelphia to her friend Amey Thurston dated October 20th 1789. The letter discusses her health and the health and lives of their mutual friends. She also describes her experience of hearing ministry at a women's Quaker meeting: "our yearly Solemnity was uncommonly large and much sisterly condescension was comfortingly evidencd; and thro the condescension of Isarels Israel's King and Shepherd we were made in some sittings reverently to rejoice in that the Lord in wondrous Mercy had not forgotten Sion 'nor yet in Anger cast off his People'~". Though Quaker worship meetings did not exclude women Philadelphia did have a women's monthly meeting as well; Haverford College holds its membership book for 1793 Cathrall does not appear in it but at least one other name mentioned in her letter does. Of interest to scholars of Philadelphia's long Quaker history especially the role of Quaker women. unknown
1849rif. BK0018Ferrisburgh Vermont 1849. Autograph letter signed "Anne R. M." to her husband Lloyd Minturn in San Francisco "Upper California." 8 pp.; approximately 1700 words. With stampless cover bearing a black "NEW-YORK / 40" datestamp of January 17 and manuscript routing "per Cherokee. Significant edge wear and central vertical crease; text generally clear and complete. An intimate Christmas letter from Anna Robinson Minturn of Ferrisburgh Vermont to her husband Lloyd then engaged in the hotel and real estate business at Pueblo San José during the California Gold Rush. Writing on the anniversary of his departure Anna describes the four-month-old son Lloyd had never seen questions whether California's speculative "mania" could last and repeatedly urges him to return home. Lloyd Minturn had traveled to California in January 1849 with David Lion Gardiner and other eastern emigrants. By November Gardiner reported that Minturn was "at Pueblo San Jose keeping a hotel and speculating in real estate."1 Anna's references to Lloyd's hotel and stables their rental and the uncertain recovery of his investment relate directly to his California business. He later appears in San Francisco as a member of the Committee of Vigilance of 1851 with his place of business on California Street and his residence at the Mansion House.2 Anna begins writing late on Christmas day imagining a future holiday spent with Lloyd "by thy quiet fire-side in Vermont-with thy wife and darling child with thee." Returning to the letter three days later she reflects on the year since his departure: "Oh how much I think about thee as the anniversary of thy departure comes round . When I think of thee my dearest ask then what a weary dreary time it seems . Our little darling improves so rapidly is so very lovely that I can hardly bear to have thee away." News that another California emigrant Dr. Stone had returned safely made Lloyd's absence still more painful. Although she understood that "the object of thy pilgrimage" at last appeared attainable Anna wondered why the management of his property could not be entrusted to an agent asking why "Mr. Ruckle" cannot "receive the rents & pay the former owner and send thee thy portion of the profits." However she immediately checks her own advice with an observation on marriage and gender: "You men know so much more how these things work than we so that it is rather labor wasted to advise much and I do hate to see a woman trying to rule her husband-don't thee" Anna feared that Lloyd might remain away sacrificing his domestic life only to lose the anticipated reward. Her skepticism extends to the Gold Rush itself: "I do hope though that the man who has taken your property will be able to pay you-that would be so bad to stay away so long-sacrificing so much & lose thy reward entirely-don't thee suppose this mania in California will end much as the land speculation did here seems to me it must. I hope thee won't get drawn in." Much of the letter is devoted to their infant son whose birth Lloyd may initially have learned of from another returning emigrant because of the "shamefully neglected" Pacific mails. At four months the boy weighed eighteen and one-quarter pounds and had "cheeks as hard as little apples." Anna encloses a lock of his hair explaining that she had kissed it before sending it. The contrast between California and the Vermont household runs throughout the letter. Anna describes the snow distant mountains sleighing baked apples and buckwheat cakes while Lloyd remains in a place known to her mainly through contradictory reports and unreliable correspondence. She cites Bayard Taylor's account of portions of California as suitable wheat country while noting that other observers claimed wheat could not be grown there at all remarking on the "contradictory accounts about California" that make it hard to "tell what to believe." Her anxiety was heightened by reports of cholera progressing toward California. She closes by asking Lloyd to protect his health and praying that he might be restored to her "in sound health both body & soul." Anna was a daughter of Rowland Thomas and Rachel Robinson of Rokeby the prominent Ferrisburgh Quaker family whose home later became known for its role in the Underground Railroad. Other letters from Anna to Lloyd during his California absence survive at the Bancroft Library and the Smithsonian.3 Overall a substantial and affecting account of the Gold Rush from the perspective of a wife left behind. 1 David Lion Gardner Letter to Juliana McLachlan Gardiner November 30 1849 David Gardiner Letters BANC MSS 2006/127 box 1.The Bancroft Library University of California Berkeley. 2 Anna Robinson Minturn Letters to Lloyd Minturn 1849-1851 Warshaw Collection of Business Americana Subject Categories: Steamboats box 1 folder 6 J-L Archives Center National Museum of American History Smithsonian Institution Washington DC. 3 Anna R.
