186654554Mechanicsburg 1866. Large 4to approx. 225 leaves red calf-backed cloth-covered boards; an onion skin holograph letter-book of retained correspondence; some bleed through and browning perhaps a dozen or so letters faint to the point of being unreadable but most are legible. Levi Kauffman whose great grandparents came from Germany in 1717 was born in 1833 in Lancaster County Pennsylvania of Christian and Anna Erb Kauffman members of the Reformed Mennonite Church. Levi Kauffman moved to Mechanicsburg in 1854 and set up a hardware and dry goods store. Between 1859-62 he was a cashier in the Merkel and Mumma Bank which became the First National Bank of Mechanicsburg. Later Kauffman was a Collector of Revenue and cashier at the 2nd National Bank 1864-69. In this capacity his correspondents were various officials in regards to the collection of tax revenues for it appears mainly liquor and cigars. Most of the correspondents are Pennsylvanian: from Carlisle York Newport Mechanicsburg Philadelphia New Bloomfield Shippensburg Harrisburg but also Chicago New York and Washington D.C. A letter to Hon. Hugh McCulloch of the US Treasury deals with a recommendation for the Inspector of Spirits. A letter on June 8 to George Schneider Collector in Chicago deals with a seized shipment of cigars but "the cigars had been shipped long before regulations in circular 40 had been promulgated." Kauffman says Mr. Miller who was selling the cigars was "a poor man but of good character" and his shipment should be released to him without penalty. In July Kauffman writes to Hon. E. A. Rollins the Commissioner of Internal Revenue in an unsuccessful attempt to retire and get a soldier appointed as his successor. There are also a few letters relative to church business such as one addressed to Brother A. Hosletter of Shippensburg and some with political content such as a letter to the Governor of Pennsylvania J. W. Geary concerning an appointment for the Supt. of State Printing. There are two or three other letters written to Geary. Another letter with political content is to Hon. John W. Forney who at the time was Secretary of the Senate in Washington DC concerning appointments made by Gov. Geary. In another letter to Forney Kaufmann writes: "It is very seldom that I taste wine or any liquor but I have some of this "California" in my hand and believing it better than most foreign wines I thought I would send you some. Then too it is American which makes it better." There are also a few personal letters addressed to his brother C. Christian S. Kauffman in Columbia concerning money borrowed. An interesting set of detailed letters from a businessman concerning financial and political events of the time. <br/><br/> hardcover books

188128016777Boston: A.P. Ordway & Co 1881. Very good to fine; toned some light wear to wrappers. Published in 1881 this booklet offers its reader detailed descriptions of different diseases while also advertising Kaufmann's Sulphur Bitters a "family" patent medicine that claims to treat and cure everything from headaches and rheumatism to kidney disease and Malaria. <br> <br> The booklet begins with a short biography of Kaufmann and his advice on caring for the sick vaccination "Always be sure that the vaccine is obtained from the cow" p. 4 and diet; following these are over fifty pages of advice for specific diseases. For each Kaufmann discusses the cause symptoms and treatment or cure where applicable. Examples include scabies flatulence bad breath pimples measles diabetes and syphilis. There is also a lengthy section titled "Dr. Kaufmann's Half-Hour Talk with Females" pp. 8-11 which discusses women's health and how his Bitters can cure everything from painful menstruation to amenorrhea; he also asserts later in the booklet that it is "perfectly safe" to take his medicine during pregnancy p. 13. Mental health is discussed under the headings "The Blues" p. 35 and "Hysteria" p. 56; unsurprisingly he attributes hysteria to "menstrual irregularities" which again can be cured with his Sulphuric Bitters. <br> <br> Stapled in original printed wrappers 8" by 5" pp. 72 with 3 colored plates and several smaller in-text illustrations.
