1912 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARY HANDWRITTEN BY A YOUNG UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT STUDENT STRIKE BREAKER AND 'SCAB' WORKING FOR THE ELEVATED STREET RAILROAD DURING A BITTER LABOR STRIKE

19120008211BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS. Good. 1912. On offer is a small original diary of a young man in the early years of the 20th Century. Measuring 4.75 inches by 3 inches it contains 365 pages. It is approximately 33% complete. The cover binding and pages are all in good condition. The handwriting is legible. EDITOR'S NOTE: While there is nothing in this diary to identify the author the item came from an archive related to Wesley Abell who graduated from the University of Vermont was inducted into their Football Hall of Fame and after graduating built a career in the municipal service of Burlington VT eventually becoming City Clerk. In 1912 he is a young man living with relatives and working in Boston MA in 1912. He has secured work as a driver/conductor for the Boston Elevated Street Railway. This is not his long term future goal for in September of 1912 he leaves home to attend the University of Vermont. The entries are fairly straightforward: "Jan 1 '12 finds me working for the Boston Elevated Street Railroad Co. I am staying with Uncle .wn in morning and done my a/ 521 .45 530 .30 Total .75 Excused until 4 o'clock b/ done a 531 .45 & 525 .30 Total .75 c met cars from 6 o'c til 7 o'c Total for day $1.80" Jan 1 1912; "For my A.M. this morn I had 2 534 .60. Was then excused until 4 o'c when I went and done a half for 4 th consisting of 504 and 520 Pay for the day - $1.75" Feb 24 1912; "Today I had a swing beginning at 8:27. Done four trips and then layed off til 6:07. Earl Sunderl was over to see me. Total $2.30 Paid." Mar 3 1913; "After April 5th there are no entries until June. On June 7th it apears that he is running a union picket line - with expected consequences! This morn I went down to run a trip at 5 o'c. On starting out on trip I was met by a bunch of strikers who threw eggs at me. Worked all day mid yells of scab and all sorts of other names. The strikers tried their best to get me to leave my car but I stuck it out". June 7 1912; This entry is significant because it refers to the Boston Elevated Street Railway strike of 1912. This was a serious labour dispute over the organizing of a union there and the demand for better wages. The strike began on June 7th and soon spiraled into violence. Court crack downs were draconian and the strike seemed poised to spread to other cities. The major turning point in the strike however came as a result of charges filed with the State Board of Conciliation and Arbitration. The Board released a report which upheld the Union's charges and placed the blame for the strike on the Management. The Board found that the Management had discharged employees solely for their Union activities had brought in strike breakers such as our author and convicted felons who were employed as strong-arm men and had coerced employees against joining the Union. After the Board's report The Governor and the Mayor of Boston became actively involved in settling the strike. The Mayor of Boston in 1912 was John F. Fitzgerald affectionately referred to as "Honey Fitz". Fitzgerald was the maternal grandfather of President John F. Kennedy and Senator Edward M. Kennedy and great grandfather of Congressman Joe Kennedy. In September he is off to university: "This morn I packed my trunks and papa carried me to St. A to take train for college. Earle A and F Stevens went down with me. Met lots of nice fellows in B and spent time with Hayden and Wesley Sturgis at Converse Hall". Sept 24. This diary offers an interesting look into one of the urban transport companies from the point of view of an ordinary worker. For a social historian it provides a flavour and a sense of what work was like in industrialized Boston at the turn of the last century. It also touches on a very key time in labour organizing in the United States. ; Manuscript; 32mo - over 4" - 5" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF; 20TH CENTURY; 1910S; PROGRESSIVE ERA; UNITED STATES; BOSTON; MASSACHUSETTS; VERMONT; BOSTON ELEVATED STREET RAILROAD; UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT; CONVERSE HALL; JOHN F.

1955 FASCINATING ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARY HANDWRITTEN BY A PAIR OF GERMAN TEENAGERS: ONE SUFFERING PRE BERLIN WALL OPPRESSION IN THE SOVIET SECTOR AND HIS LUCKIER FRIEND IN THE AMERICAN SECTOR WHO WERE GIVEN A SUMMER CAMP EXPERIENCE IN ENGLAND

19550008112Germany - England. Good. 1955. On offer is a terrific significant journal written by two German high school students who visited an English camp during the bleak years following WWII. The journal measures 9 1/2 inches by 6 1/2 inches. It is composed of 88 pages fastened together with a leatherette lace between cardboard covers. The cover has a very lovely ink sketch of London Bridge. It is in very good condition as are all 88 pages. The layout is 'landscape' and each page is typed. The spelling grammar and language construction are excellent. In 1955 Werner Avenhaus and his friend Helmut Matthias are high school students at Ulrich-von-Hutten-Highschool in Berlin Lichtenrade. Avenhaus lives in the Soviet Sector but is able to cross into the American Sector to go to school as the Berlin Wall was still six years in the future. In August 1955 Avenhaus and his friend Helmut are selected to take part in an international summer camp experience in Britain. Life was not easy: "I myself live in the Soviet Zone and I have to pass controls at the frontier every day when I go to school. My father has fallen during the last war and so my mother has to earn our living. So you can imagine that there was not much hope for me to see a foreign country. You can imagine my joy when Helmut Matthias a fellow pupil of mine and myself were chosen for a 15 visit to England. Almost immediately I tried the passports and visas. This was very difficult for me for I had to conceal my plan from the authorities in Eastern Germany which would never have permitted me to visit a country of the western hemisphere." He travelled by himself and met his teacher a few days later in Hannover. Matthias living in the American Zone had no such problems. What follows are pages of excellent description of their journey and experiences. Their initial destination was London where they stayed overnight. The next day was given over to sightseeing: "The first important building we saw was Westminster Abbey the huge cathedral where all the kings and queens of England were crowned since 1066 . A black marble in the floor of the nave marked the last resting place of the Unknown Warrior . Behind the cathedral we saw the Houses of Parliament . And the famous bell called Big Ben . After a while we reached the next interesting building: Buckingham Palace is the London residence of the Queen." Later that day they meet several students from Italy and Australia. They all board buses and drive north to the small town of Cuffley where they move into a wooded fully-equipped campground for two weeks. With Matthias taking over some of the note-taking they describe the camp and those they met there: ". It was an international Course for Senior Pupils from Western European Schools and Englicsh Grammar Schools on Literature and the Arts in Western Europe. It was the first time that senior pupils from schools in Austria France Germany Italy and Spain had joined their contemporaries in England to study each other's language literature and arts." They describe their own group their tent quarters and how their days unfolded. Mornings were given over to lectures and studies in a foreign language discussion and seminars on literature and art followed by afternoons for sports and bus tours of the surrounding area. The journal is simply chock full of details. There was a lot of activity packed into those 15 days. The journal has a number of black-and-white photographs pasted into various pages. Also of interest are two letters. An undated one written by Wolfgang Sutor and addressed simply to 'Dear Friends' expresses thanks for a pair of shoes and a winter coat: ". I was very glad indeed to get a very good winter-coat. I was extremely delighted about it because I did not possess any and it is winter now." The second letter is written by a girl named Waltraud Ernst. Dated January 10 1953 it too is addressed simply to 'Dear Friends.' In it she expresses thanks for a package of red wool she received so her mother could knit her a sweater. She describes her life in the letter noting that she is 20 attends school and works part-time as a cashier. She observes: ". In Germany everybody is glad to have work. It's very difficult to get a place for the young people who have finished school." She tells how her father 65 yrs old a concert musician before the war lost his leg in the fighting. Her mother is 58 and very ill. She makes a very poignant comment . You can see the traces of the last war in her face. She expresses the hope that someday she can become a teacher. At the end of the journal Werner and Helmut express their gratitude for the opportunity to take part in the camp: ". We had also enormous profit by learning other nations' idea wishes and customs to see what it means to help each other on the human basis and to see that we are all part of a great human family that has one foundation . We are sure that this is the best way to make friends in the world." It is signed by both boys. We learned in a 2021 email from Avenhaus that he began studying at the Free University in West Berlin in 1956. He had a room in West Berlin but returned home on weekends to help out in his familys large fruit and vegetable garden. Avenhause explained that two weeks before the Berlin Wall was erected a neighbour warned him that something would happen to individuals who travelled into West Berlin. His family took immediate action: his 80-year-old grandmother and 46-year-old mother went by train to West Berlin without any belongings and Avenhauss 20-year-old sister Erika followed shortly after on a different train. They all met in Werners room in West Berlin and then were flown to Hannover and travelled to Dortmund where they had family. Avenhaus became a high school teacher in the town of Bochum teaching English French and Latin. He married his wife Eva in 1963 and had two children Thomas and Sabine. Werner Avenhaus and Helmut Matthiass journal offers an excellent look at an effort to forge international friendships against the backdrop of the Cold War. ; Manuscript; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; KEYWORDS: WERNER AVENHAUS HELMUT MATTHIAS WOLFGANG SUTOR WALTRAUD ERNST BRITAIN HERTFORDSHIRE EAST OF ENGLAND HERTFORDSHIRE COUNTY SCHOOL CAMP CUFFLEY CAMP BERLIN WALL WEST BERLIN EUROPEAN UNION UP TO THE BORDER GERMAN YOUTH IN 1950S LICHTENRADE GERMANY BERLIN BOROUGH COLD WAR 1950S BERLIN BEFORE THE WALL POST SECOND WORLD WAR GERMANY INTERNATIONAL SUMMER CAMPS IN 1950S BRITAIN GERMAN SCHOOL STUDENTS IN 1950S LIFE IN POSTWAR GERMANY POSTWAR GERMANS' TRAVEL HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS DIARY DIARIES JOURNALS PERSONAL HISTORY SOCIAL HISTORY HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT VÉLIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO D'ANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANOSCRITTO CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL . hardcover
