187656086Providence & New York 1876. All 12mo approx. 7¾" x 4¾" 23 pages in all; previous folds; generally fine. A personal very youthful and friendly body of correspondences from Charles Value Chapin 1856-1941 to his friend Webster Knight when Chapin was just beginning his career as a physician. All letters except the first are from Bellevue Hospital in New York where he had moved to continue his education at the College of Physicians and Surgeons. In the first letter Chapin describes a yacht race at Brown University: "Providence July 17 '76. Dear Webster.as he Hazard was on the port tack he should have given way as I expected but instead kept right on and we had to bear away.almost wished we had hit him amidships and sunk the old tub.but I suppose it is more high-toned not to have drowned them.we had a small hop at Warwick.had a delightful time flirting with Helena and Miss Rhodes whom you remember I used to apply your expressive phrase 'pill garlic'." The next letter names some mutual acquaintances - also well-known Rhode Island names; Bill Gammell Prescott the Bowens speaks of Webster's flirting with the girls foreign language studies his autopsy studies; "making hash and sausage out of a lot of half rotten corpses--their ghastly faces grinning up.under the dim gaslight." Topics of the remaining letters include friendly banter associated with the boyhood escapades of the two reminiscences of Rhode Island and he wonders if the medical field will be as lucrative as the cotton business. In the last letter from 1879 which Chapin instructs Knight to burn "as soon as you have read this" he speaks of finishing his morning rounds at Bellevue his "rottenest boarding house.shanty is no name for the house and the table is poor and the people are idiots except me." Chapin speaks of his current lady love but "when she goes I have another girl I am going to make up to. She comes from Elizabeth N.J. and is more or less of a naughty girl and a d.f. but at the same time they have a first rate billiard table at the house.and also a good dinner." After visiting a saloon and taking a nap Chapin goes back to the hospital where ".they were awfully glad to see me and the death rate immediately fell off by 25%." In 1879 upon graduating with his M.D. Chapin worked at Bellevue for a year. He was also a Professor of Physiology at Brown University from 1883 to 1896. 1884 was the year in which Chapin was appointed as Superintendent of Health and he served in that capacity until his retirement in 1932. Chapin was well known nationally and internationally for his public health work related to contagious diseases such as diphtheria scarlet fever and typhoid. His research showed that contagious diseases were not airborne but were spread through contact. He was also a prolific writer and lecturer and was a member of many associations and societies. He was the president of the American Public Health Association in 1926 and 1927 and was the first president of the American Epidemiology Society in 1927. He also received the Sedgwick Medal in 1930. His correspondent Col. Webster Knight 1854-1933 was of the B. B. & R. Knight Fruit of the Loom cotton manufactory barons. He graduated from Brown in 1876 married Sarah Waldo Lippitt of the Lippitt mill dynasty became director of several banks assistant quartermaster general of the Rhode Island National Guards and a member of the Warwick Town Council. unknown
1893236066London: Chiswick Press 1893. No. 11 of 13 copies printed on vellum there were also 88 copies printed on paper. Title with vignette numerous woodcut illustrations and large initial capitals. 1 vols. Folio 12-3/4 x 8-7/8 in.; 32.4 x 22.5 cm. Loose as issued in publisher's decorated board portfolio with maroon velvet straps in publisher's maroon morocco-backed clamshell box with printed label on upper cover; box worn a few rust marks on upper board. No. 11 of 13 copies printed on vellum there were also 88 copies printed on paper. Title with vignette numerous woodcut illustrations and large initial capitals. 1 vols. Folio 12-3/4 x 8-7/8 in.; 32.4 x 22.5 cm. This work consists of two important ordinances issued by the Spanish monarchy on November 20 1542 and June 4 1543. Under the active influence of Bartolomeo de las Casas "friend of the Indians" the new laws had the special design of ensuring better treatment of the Indians limiting the distribution of their lands and above all protecting them against enslavement by the conquering Spaniards. <br /> <br /> "Las Leyes Nuevas" are reprinted here in this fine facsimile from the copy on vellum in the British Museum and are followed by an English translation. Much of the book is taken up by the historical Introduction by Henry Stevens who denounces the Spanish mistreatment of the Indians. Ironically the Spanish crown was later forced to rescind the new laws by colonists who were outraged at having to give up their right to a quota of enslaved Indian laborers.<br /> <br /> A magnificent and impressive production by the Chiswick Press one of only 13 printed on vellum.
