Journal of the Senate of the State of Connecticut May Session 1863

186351369Hartford: J.M. Scofield & Co. State Printers 1863. Hardcover. Small 4to. Blind-embossed pebble-grain burgundy cloth with gilt spine lettering and medallion. 384pp. Very good. Spine of otherwise-lovely binding is quite sunned; tight and internally near fine with occasional touch of foxing. Handsome copy of this in-depth collection of daily proceedings of this institution opening with May 6 and closing with July 11. For anyone wanting to study the speeches resolutions motions acts anything and everything that comes before this legislative branch the Senate proceedings are as in-the-weeds as they come. This special copy bears a fine presentation inscription in brown ink on the front flyleaf from Connecticut's lieutenant governor to his eldest son: "Arthur H. Averill / Danbury Nov 24 AD 1863 / With the affection of / Roger Averill." Roger Averill 1809-83 was a notable Connecticut attorney and politician and served as that state's Civil War lieutenant governor from 1862 to 1865 under Governor William B. Buckingham. Arthur H. Averill 1845-94 was the eldest of his six children an attorney who served the city of Danbury. There is a great deal of Civil War content of every sort major and minor buried in these pages. After page 358 the journal switches to "The Executive Journal of the Senate of the State of Connecticut" with second title page opening with mention of "His Honor Roger Averill President." Since Connecticut's lieutenant governor also serves as President of the Senate Averill identified simply as "The President" appears frequently throughout this volume. Here and there are occasional light pencil margin squiggles no doubt where recipient Arthur Averill noted items of interest. J.M. Scofield & Co., State Printers hardcover

War Claims of Certain States Signed by Captain John Mullan - 54th Congress 1st Session. Report No. 145. Senate January 29 1896

18962250066Washington DC: Government Printing Office 1896. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. See photos for condition details: staple bound government publication regarding the war claims and compensation of certain states. On the front cover is written "Complements of Captain Mullan". Captain John Mullan was involved for many years in the California Civil War claims as well as his own officer compensation. This government report was found amongst the collection from the Quackenbush family which was acquired in the 1970s. The book itself is a simple staple bound government publication. The front cover shows a lot of scuffing and soiling as does the rear to a lesser degree. The staples do show rust spots and the first page has small tears by the stapling as well as the check and a tear on the long edge. The remaining pages are toned with some spotting and edge wear but no other handwriting was found in the book. An extremely rare example of a slice of American history.

A native of Maytown Pennsylvania Cameron made a fortune in railways canals and banking.2 He was elected to the United States Senate as a member of the Democratic Party in 1845. A persistent opponent of slavery Cameron briefly joined the Know Nothing Party before switching to the Republican Party in 1856. He won election to another term in the Senate in 1857 and provided pivotal support to Abraham Lincoln at the 1860 Republican National Convention. Lincoln appointed Cameron as his first Secretary of War. Cameron's wartime tenure was marked by allegations of corruption and lax management and he was demoted to Ambassador to Russia in January 1862. Cameron made a political comeback after the Civil War winning a third election to the Senate in 1867 and building the powerful Cameron machine which would dominate Pennsylvania politics for the next 70 years. Provenance for this copy comes from the Orme - Sallee House Milledgeville Georgia. A.O. P. Nicholson, Printer hardcover
