22581'From the Christian Times.' London Dated 10 May 1852. For the context see Gardiner's entry in the Oxford DNB. Gardiner's disastrous last mission to Patagonia ended with his death on 6 September 1851 as the last of the seven missionaries to starve to death on Picton Island. No other copy of the present item has been traced either on OCLC WorldCat or on COPAC. 4pp 16mo. Bifolium. Well printed. In fair condition lightly aged and worn and folded several times. At the end of the poem is the author's pseudonym the Greek letter delta with the date 'May 10 1852.' Monologue in blank verse by 'Captain Allan sic Gardiner' who is 'seen lying near a boat in the latest stage of exhaustion'. The poem begins: 'Once more I am myself again. Once more As calm as free from pain as clear in mind As in the days of health I gaze around And ask What hope' The poem is preceded by the following note by the 'Editor': 'We had designed to ask especial attention to the touching narrative of Captain Gardiner's Patagonian Mission and to have given expression to our sentiments upon that great undertaking. If it had prospered we should have heard nothing but commendation of the motives which planned and the indomitable fortitude which achieved so perilous an expedition: it failed and therefore it is subjected to obloquy. Such is the state of the world in its estimate of human action and such it has been from the days of Nelson - when he disobeyed orders at Copenhagen and would probably have been shot if success had not been his apology - to the present hour. We give insertion with much pleasure to the following touching lines.' Four footnotes in small print one of them very long with reference to 'Captain Morshead's report'. '(From the Christian Times.)' [London] Dated 10 May 1852. unknown

18004Bath Somerset. 4 April 1769. 1p. 8vo. roughly 27.5 x 18.5 cm. On a piece of watermarked laid paper. The present item is the original handbill reproduced on pp.41-44 of 'The Bath Contest: Being a Collection of all the Papers Advertisements &c. Published Before and Since The Death of Mr. Derrick By the Candidates For the Office of Master of Ceremonies And their Friends Digested in Regular Order' Bath: Archer and Cruttwell 1769. It is scarce: no other copy being traced either on OCLC WorldCat or on COPAC. A frail survival on aged worn and creased paper with loss at head and to left-hand margin. It has lost the top line of the two-line heading consisting of 'To the Ladies and Gentlemen who are yet uninflu-'. The only other part of the text lacking is the number 4 of the day of the month in the bottom left-hand corner leaving 'th April 1769.' The initial paragraph is addressed to 'Ladies and Gentlemen' and this is followed by one addressed to 'Ladies' with the last four paragraphs addressed to 'Gentlemen'. The document begins: 'Ladies and Gentlemen Your Interests are united by the strong Hand of Nature. She hath given to both Sexes those Powers which equally promote each other's Happiness.' It concludes: 'What a Scene for your Sex to appear in Your Absence may shame them into Temper. A Room full of Men! What a ridiculous Sight! What Wretches should we be without You.' Note: Captain William Wade was appointed MC in 1769 -1777. [ Bath, Somerset. ] [4] April 1769. unknown
24827‘November 1937. Written from’ ‘Parent Centre “Eversley†Thorpe-le-Soken Essex.’. The item advertised in the present prospectus no other copy of which has been traced is unaccountably absent from the bibliography of the Victorian author Charles Kingsley. Information regarding the Universal Group of Intuitives was provided to ‘Light’ the journal of the Spiritualist Alliance by its General Secretary Mrs Frances Boltwood ‘Angela’ and appeared in its number of 10 September 1936. The UGI was according to Mrs Boltwood ‘guided in all its activities by its leader and founder Charles Kingsley Canon Author and Poet 1819-1875 . It came into being through the mission work which was founded by Charles Kingsley and opened in the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. D. Boltwood at 6 Milverton Gardens Seven Kings. This was begun on November 20th 1932. Angela’s Healing Sanctuary has been a definite part of the work.’ ‘Angela’ was based at the ‘First Church’ at Grosvenor Hall 45 Grosvenor Road Ilford. The ‘New Headquarters’ a ‘Father-Mother Church Healing Sanctuary and Rest Home’ was claimed to be ‘dedicated’ by Kingsley in 1936. No other copy traced. 3pp 12mo. Bifolium. A frail ephemeral survival. In poor condition creased and pitted with loss to lower corners of both leaves not affecting text and pitting and holes. The front cover carries a photographic portrait of a smiling ‘Angela’. i.e. Mrs Boltwood. The book is said to have been written by Kingsley ‘Through the trance Mediumship of Crusader’ i.e. Mr Boltwood. The prospectus is written in the form of a two-page letter from ‘Angela’ to ‘Dear Universal Reader’. She reports that she has ‘separated from the world’ and has willingly given herself up ‘to the work of providing by demonstration the Truth of the teachings brought by our Leader and Founder Charles Kingsley’. She notes that ‘Many members - now over two hundred - have contributed to the cost of publishing this Volume but without the greater assistance of Miss K. M. Pearson it would have been impossible for a while to have published the First Volume. The meeting of many expenses which have occurred in establishing the Universal Group of Intuitives has been largely due to Miss Pearson giving the greater part of her earthly income.’ The book itself is scarce with JISC only listing copies at the BL Cambridge and Trinity College Dublin. Despite the importunings of ‘Angela’ and ‘Crusader’ Kingsley does not appear to have been inclined to complete his magnum opus. By 1950 Charles Dennis Boltwood 1889-1985 had grown disattisfied with Kingsley. He was ordained a priest of the Free Protestant Episcopal Church and ten years later he was a bishop and its leader. ‘November, 1937. Written from’ ‘Parent Centre, “Eversleyâ€, Thorpe-le-Soken, Essex.’ unknown

675816 February 1850; on illustrated letterhead. 4to 2 pp. Apparently the first leaf of the list only. On aged paper with wear and chipping to extremities but with text entirely legible. The letterhead carries an engraving 6.5 x 9.5 cm of a pile of books quill pen and ink pot with text advertising the 'Imprimerie Librairie et Cabinet de Lecture d'Aubin' printed on the open pages of one of the volumes. Beneath the illustration are the words 'LE MÉMORIAL D'AIX journal politique et littéraire' and there is further text to the right and left of it. In French. Written in two hands in light blue ink. A five-line initial note asking for the books to be quoted at the lowest possible price is followed by the list in another hand in two columns continuing to the end of the second page. Most of the items appear to be novels. The absence of signature and valediction suggests that the list is incomplete. See Image. 16 February 1850; on illustrated letterhead. unknown
