12674No place or date. London c.1818. 1p. on 29 x 7 cm piece of unwatermarked laid paper probably cut down with no indication of printer or date. Printed with the long s. In good condition on lightly-aged paper. 64 lines arranged in eight eight-line stanzas. The first stanza reads: 'BRITAIN! brave and generous nation Listen to my plaintive strain Tho' exalted be my station! Day and night I sigh in pain; Here I came a helpless stranger With no friend to take my part Braved the stormy ocean's danger From home for ever to depart.' She appeals to her 'Good Uncle' i.e. King George III whose wife is described as 'your Queen a pious lady' asking him how he can stand by and 'Let a shameless woman trample On decency's offended laws'. A later reference to 'the Countess' makes it clear that this is Frances Villiers Countess of Jersey. The last stanza reads: 'There from empty pomp retreating Childless mother widow'd wife! My lost titles none repeating Let me lead a peaceful life. When you think on my sad story Britons drop a pitying tear! And fair England's fame and glory Shall to me be ever dear!'

In good condition lightly aged and worn. In his introduction Taylor explains: 'The accompanying Report has been prepared under the auspices of the Office of the Governor's Legal Counsel in response to your questions: first as to whether there are substantial grounds for believing - at least in light of the criminal justice standards of today - that Sacco and Vanzetti were unfairly convicted and executed and second if so what action can now appropriately be taken. It is my conclusion that there are substantial indeed compelling grounds for believing that the Sacco and Vanzetti legal proceedings were permeated with unfairness and that a proclamation issued by you would be appropriate.' Loosely inserted are two items. First a Typed Letter from Veda Paoletta of the Governor's Press Office to Lucille McMahon of Wellesley Free Library enclosing a copy of the report. 1p. 8vo. 15 November 1977.

1824BB056Murder Trial<br /><br />Account of the Murder of the late Mr William Weare . the coroner's inquest the trials of the prisoners and the execution. By George Henry Jones.<br /><br />London 1824.<br /><br />With 3 landscapes 2 folding plates finely lithographed by C J Hullmandel.<br /><br />8vo iv344pp; half-leather marbled boards spine label "Thurtell's Trial" lightly scuffed very solid and clean throughout.<br /><br />First edition.<br /><br />William Weare was a solicitor of Lyon's Inn and a gambler. His killer was John Thurtell 1794–1824 a sports promoter amateur boxer a former Royal Marine officer and a son of the Mayor of Norwich. Thurtell owed Weare a gambling debt of £300 an immense sum at the time equivalent to £24500 in 20151. Thurtell believed Weare had cheated him of the money. Whatever the truth when Weare demanded payment Thurtell murdered him rather than pay up. He invited Weare to join him and his friends – Joseph Hunt a tavern landlord and William Probert a former convict and alcohol merchant – for a weekend of gambling at Probert's cottage at the site of Oaks Close off Gills Hill Lane subsequently popularly known as Murder Lane23 Radlett. On 24 October 1823 they journeyed from London in Thurtell's horse-drawn gig but Weare was killed in a dark lane just short of their destination. The gruesome and callous events created such public sensation that it attracted numerous ballads and theatre shows at the time along with comment by the essayist Babington Macaulay and the crime used variously in the work of Sir Walter Scott William Hazllitt and Robert Louis Stevenson. After the trial one of the accused was hanged and another Joseph Hunt was transported to Botany Bay Australia.<br /><br />Charles Joseph Hullmandel 1789–1850 studied art and printmaking and is considered amongst the most important figures in the development of British lithography. He developed a method for reproducing gradations in tones and for creating the effect of soft color washes which enabled the reproduction of Romantic landscape paintings of the type made popular by J. M. W. Turner. Hullmandel's essay <i>The Art of Drawing on Stone</i> 1824 was an important handbook of lithography issued the same year as this account of the trial.<br />

81778 January 1844; Edge hill. 12mo 3 pp. Bifolium. Good on lightly-aged and creased paper. Wood begins by recalling 'the savage bigotry and infuriate hostility of the Manchestr. Tories at the time you mention towards the liberals'. He does not think an attempt was made to put the Oath of Allegiance to those on the recipient's list. 'The lives of 6-8 men of high Character and standing in the Town were placed in jeopardy by the perjury of two Villains and they were tried at Lancaster for either Treason or Sedition. I think for the former. One of the Wretches ran away and did not appear at the Trial I was present the other named Dunn on giving his testimony in Court was convicted of Perjury and ordered into custody immedy. by the Judge & afterwards imprisoned for 2 years.' Those accused by Dunn were 'triumphantly acquitted'. Wood names the 'Revd: Jno. Griffiths a Fellow of the Old Church' as 'a leading instigator of the proceedings' against them. Wood concludes by offering 'any information' he can give 'relating to the diabolical transactions of that Period'. In his article 'Luddism and politics in northern counties' 1979 John Dinwiddy describes Wood as a 'wealthy Unitarian' and 'a member of a 'group of middle-class reformers'. The background of the trial is given in Walker's entry in the Oxford DNB: 'On 11 December 1792 . Walker's house on South Parade and the offices of the Manchester Herald were besieged by a "church and king" mob. . Manchester authorities and loyalists had bribed an Irish weaver and local radical named Thomas Dunn to give false evidence against Walker and despite failing to indict him of high treason he and nine other Manchester reformers were charged with conspiring to overthrow the king constitution and government. Walker who employed the defence of Thomas Erskine and Felix Vaughan was tried at Lancaster assizes on 2 April 1794 but he was acquitted largely on account of Dunn's perjury.' 8 January 1844; Edge hill. unknown
