12868London: Sold by Charles King in Westminster-Hall 1716. . 16pp. 8vo. Engraved frontispiece included in the pagination in three compartments see below the blank lower corner showing part of a red duty inkstamp. A couple of minor spots but an excellent copy in early nineteenth-century half calf. With the engraved armorial bookplate of the Marquess of Crewe on the front pastedown acquired by me from the Crewe books at Bernard Quaritch in the 1980s at which time I still occasionally inserted my own little book-label in books I planned to keep so it is also present here. First and only edition based on a real event although of course the conceit of the "consolatory epistle" from eccentric bookseller John Dunton is a fiction. Only a few months before the incident described in this poem Curll had been subjected by Alexander Pope to an "emetick" in his sherry an adventure described in Pope’s A Full and True Account of a Horrid and Barbarous Revenge by Poison on the body of Mr. Edmund Curll Bookseller. Unfazed Curll persisted in his piratical ways publishing without permission and also mangling the Latin a funeral elegy to the famous preacher Robert South composed by the head boy of Westminster school. The schoolboys invited Curll to visit on August 2nd and the bookseller unwisely complied. As the poem puts it: And couldst Thou Mun be such a Sot As not to smell a Powder-Plot . . . Perhaps thy Soul to Gain inclin’d Did gratis Copies think to find. . . No! let it ne’er by Man be said The Pirate’s frighted from his Trade: Tho’ vengeful Birch should flea his Thighs Tho’ toss’d from Blankets he should rise. . . . And so it was with Curll flogged tossed in a blanket and forced to beg on his knees for the head boy’s pardon. All three of these scenes are depicted in the three panels of the engraved frontispiece here. The author of the poem Samuel Wesley younger brother of John and Charles was an usher or assistant teacher at Westminster School. He shows himself fully conversant with Curll’s history not just publishing but also his recent experience at Pope’s hands: This tossing up and tumbling down so; And well thy Stomach might incline To spue without Emetick Wine. . . . The poem offers ironic sympathy at the end: Tho’ ’tis vexatious Mun I grant To hear the passing Truants taunt And ask Thee at thy Shop in jeer Which is the way to Westminster . . . Why Pope will write an Epick on’t! Bernard i.e. Lintot the publisher of Pope’s Homer will chuckle at thy Moan And all the Booksellers in Town From Tonson down to Boddington. . . .

The letter to his son describes the plains of Nebraska with fairly detailed descriptions of fields plants birds and towns. He mentions that Powell has left ahead of him and referring to the telegraph: "When I got to Chicago Prof. Powell was gone hundreds of miles. What could I do Why I could send lightning a telegram to tell him to wait for me and I did. I sent to Denver you must look for it on the map and the lightning said he was not there. Then I sent to Cheyenne called Shyan and he was there & he told the lightning to tell me how to get passes on the R.R. and to come on." He then suggests that his young son make his own telegraph and give some instructions on how to begin.
