1865Cat322Sycamore DeKalb County Illinois 1865. Two autograph letters signed “Rosa†docketed on rear likely in Everell Dutton’s hand 4 and 5 pages 8 x 5 inches. Folded at center else fine. Two letters written in the final weeks of the Civil War by Rosina Adelpha Paine Dutton of Sycamore Illinois to her husband Everell Fletcher Dutton then lieutenant colonel of the 105th Illinois Infantry engaged in the closing campaigns of the war. The couple had met through their mutual friend Helen Barns Woodmanse and began an unusually close correspondence at the outset of the war at times exchanging two or three letters a day through 1863. They married in Sycamore on December 31 1863 and spent several months together in Nashville while Dutton was detailed to the Examination Board residing at Mrs. Jernigan’s boarding house before Rosina returned to Illinois and Dutton rejoined his regiment in the field. Rosa wrote a considerable amount of letters to her husband during the war some of which were collected by the Sycamore History Museum for the exhibition General Dutton’s America. <br /> <br /> The two letters here written a week apart show Rosina’s fears and the general mood in the days prior to Lincoln’s assassination with a focus on a mysterious favor done for an unsavory character. The April 2 letter reflects Rosina’s anxiety as she awaits news from the regiment:<br /> <br /> “Five hours later. I got to feeling so badly I could not write. I will now resume my chat. I know dear one you are tired of receiving dark gloomy letters from me but you must not hope for better while you remain in the army. Love you know is always strongly anxious when the loved one is absent. I would give everything we possess in the world if it would but bring you safely home. I am in hopes we will hear something definite from the Regt. tomorrow. I am so anxious and yet I tremble to hear from the Regt… O my Husband if you should be taken from me.†<br /> <br /> She searches the newspapers repeatedly—“no list of casualties in the Tribune … sent Ida after the Times … sent Winnie & Mary … for the Evening Journalâ€â€”but finds “no relief of mind.†The strain is constant: “whenever I spoke … the tears would come†and even at church “I could not keep the tears from my eyes.†She notes that the 105th “could not have been through so severe a contest without losing very many men.â€<br /> <br /> The April 12 letter is dominated by Rosina’s pointed suspicion toward a man she calls “Gerret†who appears to have entrusted Dutton with a valuable object: <br /> <br /> “Gerret said you had in your valise for him said it was worth $500.00. If I were in your place I would get rid of it if I had to burn it. I wouldn’t carry anything five miles for that miserable scamp. No one scarcely believes his story about being captured &c. They think he made his way home as best he could & I would not be at all surprised if that were the case. He has told half a doz different stories already about his capture. He ought to have learned his story before he came home and then told it. Such conflicting ones create suspicion. Father said if he were in your place he would turn it over to Government & then bid it in.â€<br /> <br /> No individual of this name appears in the rosters or known correspondence of the 105th Illinois and the tone of the letter suggests he was not a member of Dutton’s regiment. <br /> <br /> She closes: “My darling husband do come and thereby make me the happiest woman in the world . try dear one. I don’t believe but that they will accept resignation now before long. May the good Father of us all take care of you is my constant prayer. Devotedly yours for all eternity. Rose.†<br /> <br /> Overall an interesting pair of letters from a well documented and significant correspondence. unknown

1915142361Various places: c. 1915. We had seen the awful need. and we were itching to begin An interesting record of British involvement in the south-eastern front with photographs captured in the field. The British Red Cross arrived in Uskub now Skopje in North Macedonia in 1914 and spent the following year treating the wounded and typhus sufferers. The photographs show their journey the hospitals doctors and patients and the local scenery. The Serbian Campaign was ignited in July 1914 when Austria-Hungary invaded the kingdom. They were defeated by the Serbs in August considered the first Allied victory of the war. In October 1914 six doctors and twelve St John's Ambulance orderlies were sent to the front line equipped with supplies for a field hospital. Arriving at the front line via Malta and Greece they were instructed to take charge of four full hospitals in Uskub. Despite the great logistical challenge they kept the wards functioning and eventually opened a dedicated typhus hospital before returning in 1915. This mission was recounted by one of the doctors James Johnston Abraham in his 1921 autobiography My Balkan Log. Plates IV VI XIV and XV were produced from photographs in this album and as Abrahams mentions bringing a camera on Page 130 perhaps the album was compiled by him. A number of images show the hospitals and their doctors treating wounded and infected soldiers. Five of the six doctors Abraham Banks Benbow Higginson and Kadish are pictured and identified in the captions as are many of the orderlies interpreters and house staff. It opens with images of Malta Athens and aboard the SS Caucase in stark contrast to the rest of the album filled with shots of the wards patients being bandaged and the graves of typhus victims. There are also many photographs of village life and of the Austrian prisoners of war who worked on the wards. Oblong quarto. With 66 gelatin silver photographs approximately 86 x 137 mm mounted landscape and portrait on recto of 45 leaves 5 blank manuscript captions in white ink. Original grey-green cloth front board lettered in gilt rear board stamped with double-fillet border in blind. Minor silvering of photographs otherwise bright a few marks on mounts binding a little rubbed at extremities: a very well-preserved example. hardcover

Ownership signature on front pastedown of Ralph Gordon noted medical book and military history collector. Tight and decent later printing of this well-illustrated overview by the well-known Illinois and Civil War historian 1901-75 with a fine autograph addition: Tipped to the inner flyleaf is a Typed Note Signed from Angle 1p 8½" X 11" Springfield IL 1945 April 19. Addressed to Ralph G Newman founder of Chicago's famed Abraham Lincoln Book Shop. Very good. On "Illinois State Historical Library" letterhead which cites him as state historian Angle thanks the bookseller cryptically for some list noting: "In this instance Sickles really must have made a killing. If you ever find out who the original purchaser was I'd like to know." Signed simply "Paul" in blue ink. Sickles would be a reference to infamous Abraham Lincoln forger Harry Dayton Sickles who along with Eugene "Pinny" Field II was blanketing the country with forged autograph items of Lincoln and other historical figures.

1917000012500Philadelphia: Bishop White Prayer Book Society 1917. Hardcover. Near Very Good. 16mo. 29 cm x 21 cm. 2 3-192 pp. Blue publisher's cloth with a red border on each board red lettering on the front board flexible boards. There is a pocket on the rear board but nothing is in the pocket. Immediately after the title page the book states the motives and objects of the First World war: "We are glad to fight for the ultimate peace of the world and for the liberation of its peoples the German peoples included; for the rights of nations great and small and the privilege of men everywhere to choose their way of life and obedience . ". It is an excerpt from President Wilson's statement on the United States entering the First World War. An inscription on the free front endpaper reads: "Willis Winfried/Winfreed 506 S. Neil The next line is illegible Illinois 1917 - U.S.A. Great Lakes Illinois". The owner of this prayer book was either trembling while writing his inscription or his ink was exposed to moisture though the paper itself has no dampstain. This book clearly traveled with the naval recruit to Great Lakes the naval training station just north of Chicago. Although we cannot identify exactly who the owner was the item is significant as it is a record of what kind of item was important enough to a Navyman to transport to a war zone based on the book's significant wear and use we believe it traveled to the European theatre after the recruit completed his training at Great Lakes. Significant rubbing to the cloth rear gutter is cracked but the binding is holding. Bishop White Prayer Book Society hardcover
