186319599Saint Paul: A. Bailey 1863. First edition; 8vo pp. 2 ads 170; contemporary brown morocco over comb-marbled boards; some fading and scuffing but generally very good. From the Preface: "We present to our patrons a new City Directory satisfied that it is as nearly correct as a thorough and systematic canvass could make it. In the Business Directory all business firms we think are correctly represented classified according to the business pursuits and arranged in alphabetic order. The Appendix shows the different Associations Public Buildings Libraries Ward Boundaries Streets . Municipal Organizations etc. In the Spring of 1864 we propose to publish another Directory which we presume will receive the same liberal support." Bailey joined forces with one Groff to publish the 1864 edition after which no more were published in St. Paul. Prior to his coming to Saint Paul Bailey published directories in Quincy Illinois in 1861; and in 1862 he published one for Burlington Iowa. Subsequently he published directories for Winona Minnesota; La Crosse Wisconsin; Milwaukee; Mansfield Ohio; and Cleveland. Martin Minnesota Imprints 521; not in Sabin or Howes.

Volume I contains an account of the author's travels in England Germany France and Italy. Sabin 4605 erroneously calling for only 1 plan: "The author accompanied Major Long in his second expedition who remarks: An Italian whom we met at Fort St. Anthony i.e. Fort Snelling attached himself to the expedition and accompanied us to Pembina. He has recently published a book which we notice merely on account of the fictions and misrepresentations which it contains. The Revue encyclopedique 1826 criticized the work severely and doubted the discovery. The author replied in a Lettre sur la decouverte d'un manuscript mexicain which was printed.in the English edition of his Pilgrimage." Howes B-338; Clark II 182; Wagner-Camp 26a.2; Pilling Algonquin p. 42; Field 111: Volume II is almost entirely devoted to the author's travels among the Northwestern Indians of whom he gives some novel particulars. The narrations of what he witnessed are tinged with the peculiar glow of the author's temperament. Beltrami must have moved in a gigantic world if he saw external objects through the same media with which he viewed his own person and accomplishments." Hunt and Clarke unknown

191049372n.p. n.d. 1910. The 14 photographs in this album were undoubtedly produced by a professional photographer using a large format camera. The pictures are well composed sharply focused and unusual in their scale. They picture a family in leisure-time activities such as hunting gathering leaves and observing caged rabbits. Especially noteworthy is their time at a lake cabin and visiting Twin Cities sites. The cabin is a fine Victorian piece of gingerbread with a wrap-around porch ideal for napping and reading. The wife/mother is seen holding a copy of the periodical American Motherhood which was published 1903-1919 making it possible to date these images around 1910. The family includes twin boys one of whom is seen in the same picture reading a copy of the children's magazine Buster Brown. What appears to be a stuffed squirrel appears in three of the images. The album contains 14 beautifully toned photographs including one in which the oldest child assists a workman possibly making maple syrup. Seven loose prints accompany the album one duplicate. Among these are three pictures made at Fort Snelling and Minnehaha Falls suggesting that the family either lived in the Twin Cities or visited there. While the identity of the photographer is unknown there is a clue to the heritage of the subjects. Laid into the album is a newspaper clipping about one Marvin Hughitt 1837-1928 upon his retirement from the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad in 1925. It is possible that the family in these photographs were descendants of Mr. Hughitt with the mother or father a likely grandchild. This is an unusually nice album of family photographs. unknown

Samuel Allison 1739-1791 was a Burlington attorney who had an interest in both politics and the law. In 1762 he was commissioned as one of the surrogates for West Jersey and was put to work compiling a new edition of provincial laws which is the current volume and covers the period from 1702 to 1776. Allison was a Quaker who opposed slavery and secession from the British Empire. He worked throughout his life to end slavery and became a spokesperson for a sizeable Quaker community in New Jersey.

A rare surviving flyer advertising a series of speeches at "The Final Mass Meeting" of the New York State Woman Suffrage Party before voting takes place for "Woman Suffrage Amendment No. 1" in 1917. The speakers include Mrs. Flora McDonald Dennison billed as "The Famous Canadian Woman Suffrage Leader" Frank Durham "Formerly of Colorado" and "The Liberty Loan Speaker Rev. Dr. J. Ellenwood." The meeting was presided over by E.J. Foley mayor of the New York town of Watervliet located near Troy and Albany.
