191086220New York: Funk & Wagnalls 1910. First edition. Octavo. Gray pictorial cloth stamped in black and silver inks on cover and spine; 379pp. 8 inserted leaves of plates halftones by Glenn O. Coleman. Trace of rubbing at spine ends and corners; scattered pencil marginalia with old erasure to front endpaper; still a tight square and attractive copy Very Good or better. <br /> <br /> Hapgood's uncommon chronicle of immigrant and underworld life on the Lower East Side of Manhattan a sequel of sorts to his classic The Spirit of the Ghetto. Hapgood a sometime anarchist and full-time free-lover was in the first wave of Greenwich Village bohemians; his celebratory accounts of Manhattan's seedier sections have long stood as scarce classics of New York writing. This a really brilliant copy; the book is very rarely seen thus. We have noted binding variants in gray cloth as here and green. Funk & Wagnalls unknown

182787802Albany: D. M'Glashan 1827. First and Only Edition. Octavo in 4's. 24cm. Stab bound pages with the title page serving as the front cover and no trace that the pamphlet was ever bound. 35pp. Some mild chipping to edges and extremities most notably the upper right corner toning and soiling to wraps; internally clean but uniformly toned with offsetting from the type throughout edges untrimmed luxuriously wide margins some traces of careless opening in places. Very good by dint of survival and solidity rather than beauty the paper is cheap and the pamphlet was printed to leverage opportunity rather than posterity.<br /> <br /> A notable and at the time highly controversial trial dealing with what was later referred to as "The Murder at Cherry Hill." The prominent New York Van Rensselaer family owned and lived at Cherry Hill Farm in Albany the daughter Elsie was married somewhat unhappily to John Whipple and fell for a younger man she met in a bar by the name of Jesse Strang. The couple fell in love Elsie expressed her deep unhappiness with Whipple; Strang masquerading under the name of Jesse Orton took on a job at the farm and began an affair with Elsie which was maintained by the house staff many of whom were enslaved people of color whose testimonies were heard at the trial passing notes between the two. Elsie chafing somewhat at having to endure her legal husband resolved that he must die to make way for Strang and they would run away together to Canada. <br /> <br /> The first plan was arsenic poisoning which failed. What Elsie lacked in poisoning ability she made up for with murderous intent and she purchased a rifle removed the ammunition from her now somewhat suspicious husband's gun and induced Strang who does not come across as the sharpest tool in the shed to shoot Whipple dead. Strang then attempted to fabricate an alibi which did not hold up and he was arrested. What followed was a widely publicised trial in which both defendants turned on each other Elsie's status as the daughter of prominent landowners was leveraged as protection from any serious punishment and Strang bore the brunt of the law. He had of course further doomed himself by attempting to plant evidence lying under several oaths and generally being one of the less gifted murderers of the early 19th century; he was hanged Elsie went home to Cherry Hill the Van Rensselaer's invested heavily in local collective amnesia and the rest of the US stared somewhat incredulously and gossiped over their breakfast grits. <br /> It was a carnival of awfulness that posed many questions about the societal rights and freedoms of women the privileges of wealth and the integrity of the judicial system. Fairly represented in institutions with 20 examples in US libraries but scarce in commerce and usually in later binding. D. M'Glashan unknown
