1978Pages 94-208. Index. "This early Jewish labor movement was a remarkable and unique phenomenon which loses much when its story is told only as part of labor history... What is on record is the effort of these generations of union men, of socialists, anarchists, and of Labor Zionists to wrest from their employers maximum salaries and optimum working conditions." - from page 94.

1892ref. 35628Bournemouth: January 19th 1892. 1892. Very good. - Over 160 words penned on 4 sides of a folded sheet of creamy white paper the letter measuring 7-1/8 inches high by 4-1/2 inches wide. In his letter penned from the Mount Dore Hotel in Bournemouth England Sir Edward Bruce Hamley first expresses his appreciation for the kindness Mrs. Ford has shown his niece and for her having inquired concerning his health. He responds that "though my health is very well restored yet the disorder in my chest causing sometimes much shortness of breath still continues and disables me for active exertion." He goes on to relate that when he came to London to see Dr. Kidd over the Winter he was "much the worse for it". "I have faired till Easter and shall not till then attempt to stay for any time in town." Having previously thanked Mrs. Ford for the information regarding Mrs. Curzon Howe's Chambers" he is concerned that he might be advised to go out of town and "It would therefore be rash to take the responsibility of permanent chambers at present." Hamley goes on to say: "I hope that you and the Ambassador Mary Ford's step-son are pleased with his transfer - As you are fond of travelling . and when you get there you would be pleased indeed with the scenery of the Bosphorous - April is I should say the best month". He is glad to hear that Mrs. Mary Ford thinks well of his "niece's miniatures". Lacking for space Hamley returns to the margin of the first page to express his closing wishes vertically overlapping the opening sentences of his letter and signs himself "Edward Hamley". Folded for mailing with some very minor faint foxing. Glue stains along the edge of the last page and a thin strip of paper along the left edge of the first page slightly obscures Mrs. Ford's name which is penned vertically in the left margin. Apparently the letter was once tipped into an album. Very good. Sir Edward Bruce Hamley 1824-1893 served in the Crimean War. He was professor of military history at the Staff College Sandhurst from 1858 to 1877 and was Commandant of the College from 1870-1877. He was chief of the commission for the delimitation of the Balkan and Armenian frontiers 1879-80 and commanded a division in the Egyptian war of 1882. He was promoted to General in 1890. Hamley was Member of Parliament for Birkenhead from 1885 until his death in 1893. In addition to works on the Crimean War and his military manual "The Operations of War" Hamley was a short-story writer and poet a translator of French verse and the author of a novel "Lady Lee's Widowhood". The letter comes from the autograph collection of Mrs. Mary Ford widow of Richard Ford who wrote the popular "Handbook for Travellers in Spain". The autograph collection known as the Pencarrow Collection was formed from the 1850s onwards largely by Mary Ford in her long period of widowhood. Richard Ford's son and thus Mary Ford's step-son Sir Francis Clare Ford GCB GCMG PC 1828-1899 was an English diplomat. After serving as a Lieutenant in the 4th Light Dragoons he entered the diplomatic service first serving as Secretary of Legation in Washington D.C. He was appointed Secretary of Embassy at St. Petersburg and subsequently transferred to Vienna. He represented the British government before the Halifax Fisheries Commission and then went on to serve as Minister to the Argentine Republic to Uruguay and similar posts in Rio de Janeiro and Athens. He served as Ambassador to Spain and acted as British Commissioner in Paris to settle the Newfoundland fisheries question and at the time of this letter in 1892 was appointed to Constantinople and later to Rome. His service was highly regarded and he was rewarded with appointment to the Privy Council in 1888. Bournemouth: January 19th, 1892. unknown

ref. 24533Letter: 12 November 1948. On letterhead of 2 Bristol Court West Marine Parade Brighton. CV undated but with autograph address 'Percy Nash / 2 Bristol Court West / Marine Parade. / Brighton. / Sussex'. From the Macqueen-Pope papers. See MP's entry in the Oxford DNB. Nash made around 70 films between 1912 and 1927 and was a key figure in the creation of Elstree Studios. His career as a film maker was effectively ended following the screening of his 1921 film 'How Kitchener was betrayed'. See Bernard Ince ' “For the Love of the Art”: The Life and Work of Percy Nash Film Producer and Director of the Silent Era’ ‘Film History’ September 2007. Both items in good condition lightly aged each with light rust staining at one corner from paper clip. LETTER: 1p 4to. Signed ‘Percy Nash’. He begins by stating that he has enjoyed 'immensely' MP’s ‘articles re the Theatre World’ as well as his book ‘Carriages at Eleven’. He continues: ‘I got quite a thrill when I read that you appreciated the dance in front of the Act drop in the “merry wives” production at His Majestys. I suggested the idea during rehearsals but Tree didn’t catch on to it at the time but when the Curtain was lowered and raised a dozen times at the end he screamed “Do what you wanted to do”. Naturally a thing like that required rehearsing but I risked it and luckily it came off all right.’ Although ‘past the age for personal publicity to attract me’ he is enclosing ‘a list of my various adventures in the World of Entertainment’. He will be happy to allow MP to consult his ‘good amount of data such as Programmes Private letters from many Stars of the bygone Firmament etc.’ TWO: Signed Typed CV: 2pp: the first a full single-spaced A4 page the second last five lines of typed text and autograph name and address on cut-down top part of A4 page now 1p landscape 8vo. Signed on p.2: ‘Percy Nash / 2 Bristol Court West / Marine Parade. / Brighton. / Sussex’. The list is headed ‘PERCY NASH. born December 5th 1868.’ Begins: ‘Began thetrical sic career as assistant at Theatre Royal Bournemouth in 1889. Whilst there Toured the West Country with John L. Toole The Gilbert and Sullivan Operas German Reeds George Grossmith on leaving the Savoy Theatre. Paderewski First Tour Sims Reeves and other famous Concert artistes.’ Contains the following: ‘Became a pioneer in the British Film World organised and Directed the first pictures for the original London Film Company.

ref. 26224No date. On letterhead of 43 Cloth Fair London EC1. See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 1p 12mo. In fair condition but lightly discoloured with a large rectangle of sunning covering most of the lower part and a neat crease at bottom right not affecting the signature which is partially sunned. Annotated in pencil by a later hand on the reverse. Betjeman’s handwriting is bad so the following reading is tentative. ‘Dear Lady Jones / I meant to write to you long ere this to tell you how grateful I was to you & Sir Roderick Jones her husband for letting us house this prize in your capacious drawing room. I was grateful to you too for remembering our conversation at Old Billa’s Lady Wilhelmine Harrod wife of the economist Sir Roy Harrod in Oxford. I remember being impressed with it there & “that really exactly how I feel.”’ See IMage No date. On letterhead of 43 Cloth Fair, London EC1. hardcover
ref. 12476Ramsdon sic. 24 January 1822. 2pp. 12mo. In a windowpane mount on a leaf removed from an album. The letter itself very good on aged paper; the mount worn at extremities. He begins by informing the recipient that his 'last Letter has made ample atonement for the provocation of the preceding' and he has 'ever been the foremost both in word & deed to keep my wings in motion. I speak this seriously: my former note was only a temporary petulance'. The second paragraph begins: 'I must positively have another Paper for my Orators'. He has 'run to a fearful length & yet have cramped myself all the way. Besides what I enclose I shall have ready as much to forward in the shape of reflexion inferences &c before I enclose with my legal oratory. And then I have the Political Oratory on my hands'. He continues: 'I engage to bring Demosthenes upon the stage in a new manner & when I have him there I should like to shew him to as much advantage as I can'. The letter continues in the same vein with a postscript beginning: 'Let me hear as soon as you can that my time of gestation is extended.' Ramsdon [sic]. 24 January 1822. unknown
