1938108443Adelaide: AAMC Reunion Committee 1938. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good. Adelaide AAMC Reunion Committee 1938. Oblong octavo ii title page verso blank 201 pages plus 19a and its printed verso numbered 21a with some illustrations all produced in brown ink from processed typescript plus 47 pages of plates and 8 unnumbered sectional title leaves all versos blank; all but 6 of the first 30 and 2 later pages are printed rectos only. Flush-cut pictorial wrappers with light wear to the extremities and a few trifling surface blemishes; occasional light foxing and mild signs of handling; a very good copy of a rare and unusual item. 'Ever since the cessation of hostilities of the Great War 1914-1918 it has been the wish of Australian Army Medical Corps AIF ex-servicemen in South Australia that we should have some permanent record of our Fallen Comrades and to those who have "Passed On" since returning to Australia. The following pages are the expression of that wish' foreword. The Honor Rolls run to 18 pages. Other contents include the reunion programme with a list of guests Digger songs 'War and Other Verses' and a lengthy section of war statistics and related items of interest. We have previously handled a copy in which was loosely inserted a 'Critique of the book by the Editor "Rising Sun"' dated Adelaide 31 March 1938. The information contained in our catalogue note at the time is worth repeating: 'Presumably the reference is to "The Rising Sun. A Journal of the AIF in France. With which is incorporated 'The Honk'"; nineteen numbers were issued between 25 December 1916 and 24 March 1917 see Fielding and O'Neill page 264. The anonymous critic is not only onside; his intimate remarks about the compilation and production of the book suggest he was very much inside as well. He writes the following about the AAMC Orderly Room in Adelaide where the work was done: "the well remembered atmosphere of a dug-out was warmly recaptured. On the walls were Leyshon White pictures crisp of technique and so faithfully capturing the spirit that existed 'over there'. War-time quips were bandied freely; each chic female helper may well have been the ghost of Mam'selle herself; each flurry of sound from passing traffic may well have been the whine of more sinister objects"'. <p>Dornbusch addenda 535; Fielding and O'Neill page 233 supplying the name of the editor; Trigellis-Smith 316.

A valuable artefact of the American War of Independence: a leaf from a British War or Colonial Office ledger detailing payments to officials in General Leslie’s administration in Carolina in 1782. Among many details are references to the Loyalist units the North Carolina Highlanders and New York Volunteers as well as to Colonel Probart Howarth Governor of Fort Johnson and to Colonel de Benning Friedrich von Benning Commander of James Island where one of the last Battles of the war at which Kosciuszko was nearly killed would take place a few days after the entries those of the entries in this ledger. 1p folio. On one side of a leaf of laid paper with fleur-de-lys armorial watermark. Worn and slightly discoloured with closed tear along central fold line repaired with archival tape. The leaf is evidently part of a ledger. It is numbered 19 and headed ‘99 / Extraordinaries in North America’ with the payments being to ‘David Thomas Esqr / Carolina’. The sums involved are substantial: the opening balance brought forward is for £214908 11s 9 1/2d and the closing balance to be carried forward being £216710 7s 7 1/2d. The leaf has been neatly ruled in red with columns for ‘Warrants’ subdivided into ‘by whom granted’ and ‘Dates’ details of payments and sums paid. The ten payments nine of them dating from 10 October and the last one from 11 October 1782 are all on warrants granted to ‘Lt. Genl. Leslie’. The first six entries are highly detailed and the seventh to the tenth are additions to the sixth. First for £111 5s 0d: ‘Paid Capt. John McKinnon Depy. Quar. Masr. Genl. witht. dedn. being his Pay at 10s/. a day & Pay for Lieutts. Rankin & Bard as actg. Depy. Quar. Masr. Genl. at 5s/. a day from 1st. July to 30th. Septr. 1782. also for Lieutt. Condner from 1st.

Probart Howarth Govr. of Fort Johnson from Do. to Do.’ In 1826 advantage was taken of the blank reverse of the leaf which was evidently torn out of the ledger at this point when three sets of itemized commissary accounts were given after ‘Stock taken Sept 1. 1826’ the sums involved in one case hams bacon butter and other items totaling £10000 5s 7d. It was then folded four times into a packet dated ‘Sept 1. 1826’. See Image. 10 and 11 October 1782. [London, War Office?
