What is it to you anyway Expressions of scepticism and resignation. That is how people reacted trying to shield me - for various reasons - when they found out what I was working on. Because I had decided to write a book about everything that had happened after September 17 2006 in Hungary in Budapest under cover of the night. About everything that they wanted to keep from us. About the fate of those innocent young people whom the police have picked up in various parts of the city. About the outrage and iniquities that were committed then and subsequently. About the suffering and distress they and their loved ones had to endure. The campaign fought for their rescue was as exciting as the most gripping thriller. True we were not the ones who wrote the script; we only strove to change the projected "outcome". To be honest it was not my intention to be caught up for months in the lives of total strangers. I am not a publicity seeker I don't fancy myself as a heroine and I am tired of the constant skirmishing. I am a woman a wife a mother and a person of good intentions. I am a journalist of long standing who hasn't shed her principles along the way. That is why I could not shirk this task.". 1st ed No additional printings listed. Hardcover.

64479Handwritten letter on 4 pages measuring 5 1/2 x 8 1/2". With the letterhead "Hotel Utah Salt Lake City Under the Management of Geo. O. Relf." The letter is dated February 19 1913.<br /> <br /> The author writes:<br /> <br /> "Dear Sir<br /> <br /> "Complying with your request as regards attempted Bank Burglaries in this Territory. The last one occurred about one month ago. At Tremonton the “State Bank of Tremonton†This is a small town 25 miles north of Ogden. The bank had just located a new building and was ready to move in. They were using an old plate safe. But we sold them a new Manganese. The new safe was in the vault of the new bank while the old safe remained in the old building and vault. The bank had acknowledged they would move on Monday. On Sunday night the Burglers sic entered the old Bank and blew the old safe. But the Saturday evening previous the Cashier had transferred all the money to the new safe. So the yeggmen did not secure a cent and all the damage they did was to put the old safe out of use. The only other attempts I know of in the past six months was on a bank at Midvale Ut. and Murray Ut both small town south of Salt Lake about 15 and 25 miles. In both cases all they did was to punch the lock off the vault door. There was no attempt on either safe and the yeggs got nothing.<br /> <br /> "I presume you have heard of the First National at St. Anthony being entirely burned out as also the Commercial Bank at Burley Id.<br /> <br /> "Yours very truly " A letter with interesting content describing early twentieth century attempts at breaking open safes in small Utah towns which leave the yeggmen empty handed in the end. The letter is addressed to Mr. W. G. Norris of Seattle WA. William G. Norris was president of Norris Safe & Locke Co. which was a seller of safes. In 1904 the business occupied one of the first-floor storefronts of the Estabrook building at 1336 2nd Avenue. Perhaps Mr. Norris had queried the author of the letter as to how his safes were withstanding the occasional burglaries of the times. unknown
1838List2426Republic of Texas 1838. Stampless letter folded with red two-line handstamp of Steam Packet Columbia on January 16 1838 from Brazoria Tex. to New Orleans. Fine condition. Fine. An intriguing letter written by Edmund Andrews a judge in Brazoria Texas who had arrived in Stephen Austin’s colony eight years before he penned this in 1830. The letter is written to John K. West the New Orleans attorney who was an original member of the notorious “New Orleans Associates.†Andrews discusses a conversation he had on behalf of West with John Austin Wharton who would die later in 1838 relating that Andrews had a conversation with Wharton on West’s behalf. The conversation with Wharton revolved around a man with the last name Chase and Andrew Mills who had both left Texas presumably and traveled to Kingston Jamaica where Mills was hanged for an undisclosed crime. Andrews writes that Wharton related that that Mills told him he “would not have done it if he had not been drunk†presumably talking about the crime for which he was hanged. Overall a very intriguing letter relating to crime exile and misdeeds in the Republic of Texas which should be of interest to scholars of the Republic. <br /> <br /> Full text follows:<br /> <br /> Brazoria Jan'y 16 1838<br /> <br /> Mr. John K. West<br /> Sir <br /> <br /> Since I wrote to you in reply to yours under date 19th ulto. I have seen Col. John A. Wharton upon the subject contained in your favor. He says he does not recollect who the person was referred to in yours but recollects to have heard Haney speak of it and says he Haney told him that he actually saw Andrew Mills hung and says he described the rope he was hung with. Col. Wharton seems to think Haney's statement entitled to credit. <br /> <br /> These facts can be known if they are really facts by sending a commission to Kingston Jamaica for although both Chase and Mills had no doubt assumed names yet a person of so much notoriety as Capt. John Chase must have been known to some there.<br /> <br /> Haney said Mills begged him when he saw him in Kingston never to make known his fate and that he would not have done it if he had not been drunk. The foregoing is the substance of the conversation held with Col. J. A. Wharton. <br /> <br /> I am yours truly <br /> Edmund Andrews. unknown

1995029909Salt Lake City Utah: Northwest Publishing Inc. NPI 1995. INSCRIBED / SIGNED directly on the front free endpaper by BOTH the AUTHOR Jack Atchison and the SUBJECT Charlie Keating. New in a New dust jacket. NO chips tears creases rubbing or fading to the book or jacket. NOT price clipped $27.95. Bright and shiny. Square and tight. Sharp corners. Pages are fresh crisp clean and unmarked -- obviously never read. Bound in the original silver-stamped gray cloth. Complete with dust jacket. The jacket is protected by a removable Brodart clear-plastic sleeve which is mildly rubbed. About the book: "In the late 1980s Atchison was a managing partner at what was then the Arthur Young & Co. accounting firm. He directed the audit of Charles Keating's Lincoln Savings and Loan and was responsible for giving it a clean bill of health. Shortly thereafter Atchison was handed a top executive post with an annual salary of almost $1 million at American Continental Lincoln's parent company. At congressional hearings on the Lincoln S & L debacle Atchison refused to testify pleading the Fifth Amendment. Here Atchison tries to salvage his own reputation; he also disturbingly exploits current anti-Washington sentiment that turns government into the villain and wrongdoers into victims. His tone throughout is belligerently defiant; he portrays Keating as under siege from a hostile enemy. As Atchison tells it Keating was 'extorted' by overzealous vindictive regulators who regularly leaked confidential documents about their investigation because Keating dared to stand up to them." From Wikipedia: "In the 1980s Keating ran American Continental Corporation and the Lincoln Savings and Loan Association and took advantage of loosened restrictions on banking investments. His enterprises began to suffer financial problems and were investigated by federal regulators. His financial contributions to and requests for regulatory intervention from five sitting U.S. senators led to those legislators being dubbed the 'Keating Five.' When Lincoln failed in 1989 it cost the federal government over $3 billion and about 23000 customers were left with worthless bonds. In the early 1990s Keating was convicted in both federal and state courts of many counts of fraud racketeering and conspiracy. He served four and a half years in prison before those convictions were overturned in 1996. In 1999 he pleaded guilty to a more limited set of wire fraud and bankruptcy fraud counts and was sentenced to the time he had already served. Keating spent his final years in low-profile real estate activities until his death in 2014.". INSCRIBED / SIGNED. First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. New condition/New dust jacket.
