Veit, dated 5/14/1899, showing a military cadet with rifle in profile, and the head of a young lady with hat. Arthur Stobo Veit (1884-1912), son of a manager of the Standard Oil Company, attended Montclair Military College, Pennsylvania Military Academy, and the Hill School before going to Columbia as part of the Class of 1907. These drawings were probably done while he was at the PA Military Academy. He left Columbia in 1905 to join the Standard Oil Company. In 1912 he committed suicide on a New York street, the cause of his distrees was a great mystery at the time - and remains so today. POETRY BOX 4

1898Twenty leaves on heavy stiff paper stock. With 18 illustrations by Wycliffe Taylor printed in sepia, accompanying an appropriate verse. Oblong folio. 370 x 280 mm. Original pictorial paper covered boards binding, lettered and decorated in red. Binding worn at the edges, but overall very good. Harry Cumberland Bentley (1861-1913) was an English sporting author and poet. He was famed as the 'Bard of the Pytchley Hunt.' In this book there is a 1930 manuscript presentation from 'Mouse Bentley'. This is probably the author's daughter - Violet Esmé Hawkesworth (Field) (Hassall) (Bury) (Bentley) [1898-1986]. Fanciful imagination has pictured a trout swimming up the River Ayr, passing into the Lugar Water at Barskimming, entering the Black Loch via the Glaisnock Water and thence into the Black Loch. The second outflow from the loch would carry the trout into Creoch Loch, then into the Loch o' th' Lowes, the River Nith and finally into the Solway Firth after a journey of around seventy miles. A very scarce and attractive angling title. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! OVERSIZE 1 / DC1
