18432030Paris: Imprimerie de Schneider et Langrand 1843. First edition. Contemporary 19th century quarter calf binding with green boards; gentle wear to edges. Internally an excellent copy with original wraps bound in; occasional light foxing and small paper loss to margins of last two leaves neither affecting text. Octavo collates complete with 31 pages. An exceptionally rare copy of Sand's first work on social justice of which only 500 were printed. This copy is the only one known to have come onto the market with none in the modern auction records and the only other held at La Bibliotheque Nationale de France.<br /> <br /> Having dedicated the first decade of her career toward writing novels about women's internal and social struggles George Sand made her first move into activism with Fanchette. Shocked by the story of a young girl with mental illness who had been refused refuge in a convent and was soon after discovered pregnant and arrested for begging Sand opted to expose the events in a set of letters printed in the Revue Independente. Following a wave of public outcry "Sand decided to have the letters printed in brochure form with the plan that half the copies would be distributed free to the workers of La Chatre the others sold for the benefit of Fanchette. Five hundred copies of this brochure of thirty-one pages were printed and circulated. The Fanchette case therefore revealing as it did an appalling lack of sympathy for the poor and misfortunate convinced George Sand that an effort should be made to awaken the citizens of La Chatre to their duties as members of a community" Bowes. This publication marked a new phase of Sand's writing career which more directly emphasized social justice particularly for vulnerable women. A rare and important work.

1831008897Thibodeauxville 1831. Unbound. Good. This two-page folded letter measures 16" x 9.75" unfolded. The cover has no postmark nor rate mark so it is likely it was carried outside of official post office channels. The letter's paper is supple but it has developed splits along several folds so quite fragile. <br /><br />In this letter the Thibodeauxville Justice of the Peace seeks information about two men James Stewart and Joseph R. King he has arrested for horse theft and the probable murder of a watchmaker: <p style="margin-left:3%; margin-right:3%;">"There was a complaint . . . there were two men James Stewart and Joseph R King . . .of Suspicious Character that there were strong circumstances . . . they were guilty of Murder or horse stealing and probably both. . . . They started from Iberville with an old Dutchman a clock or watch repairer. . . . About two miles below Plaquemine the horse threw the Old man . . . and they took his horse . . . and Saddlebags and threw the old mans tools into the Mississippi. . . . The horse was found . . . and King and Stewart were arrested and are now in jail. I shall feel under obligations to any man that will give me information of the Old man whether he is dead or living or any other information that will serve to an expose the crimes which Stewart and King may have committed." <p>I could find no record that King and Stewart were ever brought to trial. Also neither name appears on the historical list of Louisiana executions. This does not mean that the pair were not convicted of murder. In the 1830s <br /><br />Louisiana was one of three states Alabama and Tennessee being the other two that changed their laws to give juries the complete discretion to sentence convicted murderers to punishments short of death. Some see Banner <i>The Death Penalty: an American History</i> have suggested that this was so that juries which at the time were composed only of white men could take race into account when they handed down sentences. Perhaps . . . but only two men were executed in Louisiana in 1831 one white and one black. <br /><br /> books
