17712128Boston Massachusetts 1771. ALS from Clergyman Simeon Howard to Un-named Foe Boston October 27 1771 <br /> <br /> 4-page bifolium autograph letter signed. Measures about 9 x 7 3/8 inches. Ragged right margin but no content lost. Previous folds with weakness at folds. Good Condition.<br /> <br /> Manuscript letter addressed to "Honoured Sir" from the clergyman Simeon Howard of Boston Massachusetts. Sadly we do not know to whom the letter was written but Simeon Howard defends himself against several apparent accusations. To wit--Howard refutes the accusation of having targeted a specific individual in his sermons stating that his preaching was general and not directed at anyone in particular. Furthermore he dismisses the criticism regarding his "wit" and the reference to a sermon on the duty of mothers noting that he simply borrowed the ideas from a published work by a Dr. Tillotson. <br /> <br /> Howard goes on to strongly challenge the recipient's "extraordinary conduct" accusing him of repeatedly speaking ill of him in public misrepresenting his sermons attempting to ridicule him and trying to damage his reputation among his parishioners. He concludes by implying the recipient's actions are an attempt to undermine his ability to serve his congregation and potentially deprive him of his livelihood.<br /> <br /> Simeon Howard was born in Bridgewater Maine May 1733 and died in Boston Aug. 1804. He graduated from Harvard in 1758 and after teaching and at the same time studying the- ology became pastor of a church in Cumberland Nova Scotia. In 1765 he returned to Harvard as a resident graduate-student and was appointed a tutor the following year. In 1767 he became pastor of the West Church Boston where he ministered till his death with the exception of a sojourn of a year and a half in Nova Scotia where he and many of his congregation had gone to avoid the dangers of the Revolution. He published various sermons including a famous 1773 sermon to Boston soldiers where he defines Liberty as the "external force and constraint†by other men."<br /> <br /> A full transcript of the letter will be provided. Several highlights include the following:<br /> <br /> " In general I would observe that the charge you bring against me in the first paragraph is entirely groundless. I did not in either of the discourses with which you pretend to be so much offended point out any particular person as having been guilty of the crime I was preaching against. I did not say or even insinuate that I thout any one of the congregation was guilty."<br /> <br /> "Have you not repeatedly and from time to time for many weeks past spoken of me in the most unkind and injurious terms.Have you not endeavoured to render me ridiculous and contemptible by reflections on my person and manner of life in my youth"<br /> <br /> Unfortunate that we have no record with whom Howard was fighting. Perhaps the annals of history can provide more details than we have uncovered. unknown

In 1846 after rumors that the Mexican Republic was going to expel all non-citizens he led a group of settlers in what became known as the Bear Flag Revolt after the California Bear Flag raised as they took control of the Sonoma pueblo. Ide was named Commander of the California Republic. Afterwards most of the party joined Lieut. Col. John C. Fremont in seizing California from Mexico. Uriel Crocker was a founder of leading Boston publishers Crocker & Brewster and later sat on the board of several railroad companies including the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad South Pacific Railroad and St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad. <br> <br> "This SKETCH contains an account of the early years of W.B. Ide recollections by his daughter of the family's trip across the plains to California in 1845 and an account of the Bear Flag revolt of 1846 as told by Ide to his brother in 1849 and in a letter to a Senator Wambough which as Ide died in 1852 must have been written within a few years of the event. An interesting account of the overland journey of 1845 and important source on the beginnings of American rule in California in 1846." - Streeter. The work is also important in that it is one of the few overland journals written from the point of view of a woman Ide's daughter who in 1845 at age eighteen accompanied her father west and is unique in its exclusive treatment of the Bear Flag Revolt.
