18960008032Le Roy New York. Good. 1896. On offer is an interesting little diary from 1896 that details the efforts of a young man to start his own business. The volume measures 4 inches by 2 1/2 inches and contains 92 diary pages several memoranda pages and a number of information pages. It is in good condition and all pages are intact. The diary is about 60% complete and the handwriting is legible. The author is Clarence H Williams and he lives in LeRoy NY about half way between Buffalo and Rochester. There is little biographical information but context suggests that he is a young man who is now living on his own. Right from the outset we learn that he is trying to establish a viable small printing business: "I sent 26 boxes of goods away today" Jan 7 "I went down and run 1000 books tonight. I earned about $1.30 today. So today aint bad" Jan 11. However he doesn't rely only on his small business. He purchases chickens to run a poultry business Jan 11 and engages in other activities such as cutting wood with his father. He bought a Simplex Typewriter to help in his printing business noting: ". I have got 814 words of my advertising piece written" Jan 19. It is slow going and despite some thoughts of quitting he persists. In April he notes: "I drew a check for $3.10 from the firm."May 1. The diary is blank between May 29 and Aug 10. During that time it seems he was working to build a circular saw and he notes on Aug 11: ". My circular saw works tip top. " Aug 11. Keeping in line with his continual searching out information for new ideas and businesses he refers to another 'how to' book he has received: ". I bought a book called Picture Making in the Studio last Monday and I just received it today." Aug 15. He comments about looking for work but when he gets an offer its not a lot: "Mr. Hooker wants me to do his chores this winter but I don't know about it. There is only 50 ¢ a week in it." Oct 10. The year ends much as it started - with Williams struggling along with his small printing business some chickens and work that he finds around the area. For a historian looking at life in turn-of-the-century rural America this little diary is an excellent resource. Not only does it detail Williams daily efforts but if mentions a number of other local and regional business as well as many individuals - each of whom can be followed up on to build an even more detailed picture of life in rural up-state New York.; Manuscript; 48mo - over 3" - 4" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF 19TH CENTURY 1890S CH WILLIAMS; CLARENCE H.

19240012211Cornell University Grenoble London Paris Italy. Good with no dust jacket. 1924. Hardcover. On offer is a terrific journal covering the travel and studies abroad of an American college student who would go on to graduate from Cornell University open up a dairy farm and die before his 40th birthday. The journal belonged to Richard Everard Williams 1902-1937 of New York. Williams was born to Captain Edward Peet Williams 1839-1910 and Laura Carroll Dennis Williams 1862-1938. His mother was an accomplished musician who had studied and worked in London in her younger years and went on to be active in the Liberal party in Washington. His father served two years in the Civil War as a Captain and married Laura following the death of his first wife Abby Townley. William graduated from Cornell University Class of 1927 with a BS in Agriculture. He then purchased a large farm in New York and began a dairy farm. In 1927 just before graduation he married Carolyn May Brooks 1903-1983. They had a son David Brooks Williams in 1932-1988. Williams journal covers a three month period in 1924 during which he crossed the Atlantic to France on the SS Voendam. In France he attended university and then visited Switzerland and Italy before returning to the United States. He was accompanied by his mother and Aunt Ann Dennis Bursch 1870-1932. This trip is not the first time had been to Europe as he mentions a visit in 1914 Aug 12. Williams is an excellent poetic writer engaging without meaning to be: In the evening Adelaide Hooker and I slipped under the rope bearing a No Admission sign and tiptoed out onto the bow where we sat for nearly an hour. Every few moments the ship would run into schools of fish which would dart away gleaming with phosphorescence as they swam. The spray which broke from the bow likewise had a phosphorescent glow. Later just before I got into my birth an orb having all the appearance of a yellow harvest moon rose up out of the sea and cast its golden light across the gently tossing waters June 20. Williams stopped in London Paris and Lyon before reaching his initial destination Grenoble where he enrolled in the University as a student likely the Gernoble Alpes University on July 1st. He discusses the lectures he attends and the professors M. Morillot M. Chevallier M. Bergson M. Galland and M. Mengin. When not in classes Williams and his family visit neighbouring communities and he discusses his experiences both as a student and tourist naming his fellow students parties he attends and places he visits with and without his family: About 8: 20 this morning I started out with my lunch for a snowfield just east of Peyron dAmout or dAmour a rocky peak of which the rounded head rises a little northeast of La Meije. My way led up thru lovely alpine meadows and across Chalvachere a roaring torrent fed my the melting snows of the Glacier de la Meiji. Heated by climbing it was most refreshing to stand on the bridge above it fanned by the cooling breath of air which rose from its icy waters. Far above towered the beautiful and majestic Meiji July 6. We left Avignon in 3 auto buses about 8: 30. Our route led through a region which prof Metzger said was typical of the Midi gently rolling country with rather sparse vegetation suggestive of a hot climate sprinkled here and there with olive groves almond groves and vineyards. . The sky was a light blue with white clouds here and there and altho the sun was intensely brilliant the mistral was blowing sufficiently to make me very glad to wear an overcoat while motoring July 27. .At Fontainbleau we lunched ta the Restaurant de lAiglon. Afterward we visited the Chateau which looks like a barracks from the outside but contains much that is stunning. Mention must also be made of the gardens which are refreshing in being much simpler than those of Versailles and of the famous and crowded carp pond Sep 14. This is not your typical travel diary. It is fascinating to read about the experience of an exchange student with significant resources and accompanied by family as he is able to see and do so much more than the average 22-year-old. For a geographer or travel buff this journal paints a wonderful first-hand view of glimpses of life across Europe in that seemingly golden time following the devastating World War 2. For a genealogist this journal demonstrates neat connections between Americans and Europeans. This journal covers June 14 the first day of sailing and concludes on September 28th when Williams docks in New York. It measures 10x6.5 inches and contains 188 pages. It is about 70% complete. The hardboard covers and the binding are in good condition as are the pages. The spine is securely taped and is in good condition. There is some slight staining on the covers due to age. The handwriting is quite legible. ; Manuscripts; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 188 pages; Signed by Author . hardcover
