1991016009Tallinn: Eesti Raamat 1991. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. Inscribed & Signed by Author. First Edition. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. Text in Estonian. B.G. Bengt Gottfried Forselius was a 17th-century Estonian educator who introduced a number of educational innovations among them the creation of a spelling system that simplified both the teaching and learning of Estonian. An uncommon title and if you can read Estonian you can be the envy of everyone on your block. Navy leatherette w/gold lettering to front cover/spine 116 pages. This copy inscribed on reverse of first end paper my Estonian is a bit rusty and I'm not terribly familiar with the process Forselius created to facilitate learning the language so please forgive me if I don't provide an accurate translation -- or even a wildly inaccurate one. Light general wear. Eesti Raamat Hardcover

18920001335MANKATO MANAWA KANSAS KS SEYMOUR WISCONSIN WI. Very Good. 1892. On offer is an archive of six 6 original manuscript diaries handwritten by Andrew C. Walch a newspaper man who worked mostly in Mankato Kansas in the 1890s. The diaries represent 1892 1893 1894 1895 1896 and 1897. The early diary begins with Andrew living in Seymour Wisconsin in the fall he moves to Mankato Kansas. The next four diaries 1893-1896 show him still in Mankato and finally in the 1897 diary he's in Manawa Wisconsin. Andrew is an unstinting diarist rarely failing to write and all the diaries are full save for 1897 which is about ¼ full. Historians and collectors of late 19th Century Kansas and journalism will find an open book in Walch. Here are snippets: "March 18th 1892 Seymour Wisconsin Got up at 4:45 a.m. Helped do the chores and then walked to town and took the train for Black Creek to attend District Lodge. At the depot Edith Standard met us and Charles and I went off with Alfred Holz. We saw John Heintz and his two pretty sisters. At 8:30 met Mr. Burgogne and we went to school until recess then went to lodge. I was appointed press reporter. At 5 o'clock Mary Tubbs Charles Flora Stevenson and I took in the town and at 6:56 took the train for home. Saw Mary to Merehl's store and then went to Mr. Conner's to practice for the church.

Received a letter from mother. Took a bath and then went down and played tennis awhile. At 10 o'clock took Lillie Allen and we went to the picnic in Black's grove. A shower came up and we took refuge in Grundy's granary and had our lunch there. At 6 o'clock it cleared off and about 6:30 14 of us went to Montrose to see the fireworks. Left Montrose about 8:45 and got caught in a terrible storm but we were well protected and did not get wet. Arrived in Mankato at 11:15. Tony Chapman rolled in with me at 12 o'clock. All in all it was one of the most enjoyable fourths I ever spent.""June 27th 1896 Mankato Kansas Got up at 6 o'clock and walked up to Joe Harrison's and got my washing.

In the evening Clifford Lynn and I called on the girls at Dr. Spencer's and we all went to the depot to let the train in and then to the Medicine Show and afterwards for a walk. Viva and I went down to the house and hid the hammock and then went for a stroll and did not get back until 12 o'clock. Cliff and Mara had disappeared so we swung the hammock and had a time until 1 o'clock and I was about to leave when Cliff and Mara showed up. They had been eaves dropping on us. We all had a good laugh and then Cliff and I left." "December 27th 1897 Manawa Wisconsin Worked at the office. Went to Green Bay to attend the Masonic Installation of officers in the evening it being St. John's Day. Had a pleasant time and good supper. Prosser and Dittmer went down from Seymour. Nat Stewart's wife was on the train and Charles and I went over to supper with her. Rolled in at the Commercial Hotel at 12:30." BIO NOTES: Online research finds a biography on Andrew in "Pioneers of Little Wolf Wisconsin" and in part it says: "The first printing office in Manawa was located in a small building back of the old Central House Hotel that is now Peterson's Tavern. From here the Advocate office moved to rooms facing Second Street in the First National Bank which today is the Eastling Building. Mr. Andrew C. Walch came to Manawa from Mankato Kansas in 1896 to take over the Advocate. He began his career in the newspaper field while still a student at Seymour High School. After graduation in 1890 with the first class to finish four years of study at Seymour High School Mr. Walch went to Mankato Kansas where he helped an uncle put out a weekly newspaper continuing there until he purchased The Advocate. Following the Christmas rush of 1898 Mr. Walch locked his print shop and returned to Kansas where he was married on December 27 to Lillian Allen daughter of the Reverend and Mrs. E. W. Allen. Mr. and Mrs. Walch established their home in Manawa and observed their Golden Wedding Anniversary here in 1948. Three years prior to this Mr. Walch had marked his 50th year in newspaper publishing. Around 1915 The Advocate office was moved from the bank building to its present location on Union Street. This building had previously housed a general store and at one time the Diehl sisters operated a millinery store and dress making shop there. For a number of years Mr. Walch was assisted in the business by his eldest son Allen "Pete" Walch. Later the ownership passed to another son James Walch who continued as editor and publisher until February 1956 when he sold the business to Francis Byers of Marion plus other stockholders who formed a corporation." Adding further depth to this broad look at Kansas in the 1890s we find numerous newspaper clippings between the pages. Each diary other then the early one is a nice "Standard" diary hard cover and a good size measuring about 4" x 6 ¾". The 1892 diary has a soft cover and is in good shape measuring about 3 ½" x 5 ¾".
