1900000289Cambridge Mass.: Cambridge: Charles W. Sever & Co. 1900. 1900. 2nd Edition . Hardcover. Fair. Description: Royal 8vo 10 × 7½ in: xxi 1263 p. Navy cloth. · Condition: Cloth discolored especially on the back which is also decayed chipped and brittle. "Burton Edward Eames. 39 Thayer Hall Cambridge Mass." is inscribed on front free endpaper. · Comments: Eames entered Harvard Law School in 1900 and was graduated in 1903; he thereafter practiced law in Boston. See Harvard College Class of 1900 Secretary's Fourth Report 1915 at 134. According the "Dorm History Search" "Buxton sic E. Eames" a law student occupied room 39 in Thayer Hall in 1901. For the year 1901-02 Evidence was a second year course taught by Professor Thayer. See Harvard University Catalogue 1901-02 at 546. After Thayer died on February 14 1902 Professor Beale continued the course for the remainder of the term. See "The Harvard Bulletin Feb. 26 1902 at 2". This appears to be the only occasion Beale taught evidence. In this copy there is extensive underscoring in pencil with a few marginal annotations up to page 250; starting at that point there are extensive ink MS notes on nearly every page and also lengthy MS notes on slips of paper tipped to pages 771 773 777 779 787 795 799 803 825 833 835 873 877 887 901 913 917 921 925 927 941 949 955 959 961 965 1009 and 1021.

1884BOOKS239026Boston MA: Little Brown and Company. G/FR. 1884. First Edition. Wraps. Original plain wrappers and printed jacket. James Bradley Thayer 1831-1902 was a Boston attorney legal scholar and professor at Harvard University. He had business dealings with Emerson and was one of a party of twelve who with Emerson went in a private Pullman car from Boston to California and travelled there for several weeks in 1871. Thayer wrote a number of diary-like letters to his wife while on the trip which later formed the basis for this account. This book also contains the letter that Thayer had written to the Boston 'Daily Advertiser' in which he attempts to clarify the response to a recent 1883 Boston lecture on Emerson given by Matthew Arnold.

1803637M31London: Printed for R. Phillips 1803-1806. Leather. Very Good. 8.5" by 6". Various. Two very scarce copies of volume IX and XV of the fascinating 'Medical and Physical Journal'; reportedly used at a British Military Hospital in the village of So Pedro de Rio Seco during the Peninsular War of 1807 to 1814. 'The Medical and Physical Journal' was first published in 1799 and contained accounts of current events in medicine brief book reviews and numerous essays on surgery pharmacy chemistry and natural history. This two volume set contains Vol IX January to June 1803 and Vol XV January to June 1806; exploring such fascinating topics as yellow fever leprosy influenza Vol IX and inoculation hydrophobia and medical reform vol XV to name a few. Volume IX collated complete with four pages of plates one of which is coloured and folding. The plate of 'Dr. Clarke's newly-invented Surgical Instruments' has been rebound facing page 9. Volume XV is also collated complete with four pages of plates one of which is coloured. This work has been rebound by Colin Yorke of Weston-Super-Mare in 2016 in an attractive half polished calf binding with marbled paper boards. Volume XV features a tipped-in slip to the front free-endpaper by Yorke recalling his purchase of this work 'in a market stall in Almeida Portugal in 1999' and the original discovery of the volumes at a house clearance in the nearby village of So Pedro de Rio Seco on the Portuguese-Spanish Border. This slip goes on to detail Yorke's belief that the works were originally used at a British Military Hospital in the village during the Peninsular War and his theory that the work was accidentally left behind by a British medical officer when the hospital was abandoned in November 1812. This incredibly interesting theory is also reproduced on a loosely inserted booklet by York with accompanying photo-copied material that support his findings. Rebound in a half polished calf binding with marbled paper boards. Externally lovely with only very minor handling marks to spines. Tipped-in slip to front free-endpaper volume XV. Internally firmly bound. Pages age toned with the odd spot and handling mark to the occasional page. Small closed tear to fore edge of folding plate facing page 489 volume IX. Tape repair to lower fore edge of page 3/4 of index and pages 197/8 199/200 to front of volume XV. Loss to fore edge of plate facing page 201 volume XV. Professional repair to slight loss of plate facing page 455 volume XV. Very Good Printed for R. Phillips hardcover
