1825000556Montpleasant Ohio: Elisha Bates 1825. The author was a prominent Friend or Quaker in Ohio during the 1820s and 1830s. Bates became the publisher of The Philanthropist from 1818 to 1822. The Philanthropist was the first anti-slavery newspaper in the United States and also supported temperance and the fair treatment of Native Americans. Bates began publishing another periodical The Moral Advocate in March 1821. Bates also became the leader of the Mount Pleasant Meeting of the Society of Friends Quakers. Bates' only book this volume was self-published in 1825. Author Donald Good in his 1969 article "Elisha Bates and Social Reform" states that Bates' Doctrine of Friends was "judged to be one of the best brief accounts of Friends' view in existence." After the publication of his book dramatic changes began to foment within the Quakers religion with what became known as the Hicksite - Orthodox Schism. Bates who favored Orthodoxy was a staunch opponent of Elias Hicks the Hicks in Hicksite who favored liberalism. Bates became a controversial figure. He was disowned converted to Methodist and became a Methodist minister. He late returned to Quakerism. There are three signatures and a personal library stamp on flyleaf - this book has a historical provenance: the first signature is that of Wyman Chamberlain 1772-1838 followed by "his book." Chamberlain was the son of a Revolutionary war soldier and a prominent member of the Friends congregation of Grand Isle Vermont. The next signer in pencil was Mary Chamberlain 1808-1887. Genealogy research suggests that Mary was likely Wyman's daughter-in-law the wife of his only son William. The last signer in ink was Reba B. Hoag. Reba was the sister of Mary the sister-in-law of William and the step-daughter of Wyman. She lived with her sister and brother-in-law. Lastly there is also a personal library stamp of Jed P. Clark. Mr. Clark 1825-1906 was the son of Joseph Clark a very prominent man in Milton Vermont who is still revered today as one of its founding fathers. Jed P. Clark succeeded his father as the owner of the largest town industry - a saw mill and grist mill in Milton Falls Vermont and a director of the Vermont & Canada and Central Vermont railroads. Items related to Jed P. Clark's mercantile store such as its script are still collectible today. Clark was also briefly one of Milton's postmasters. We contacted one of the Quaker libraries and were told that it was "interesting that someone at Grand Isle had Bates' book because Bates was not in agreement with the kind of Quakerism that was practiced there." This is a very interesting and culturally important book particularly for the history of the author and owners. Full leather binding 320 pages. The book has wear commensurate with age: the leather is worn; binding is split at outside back seam with the hinge held on by one stitch. Bumped corners. Dark tanning and foxing to pages.

All preserved in recent blue cloth 3-ring binders still a VG archive. This glass slide photo archive visually captures the expansion of the Lutheran Mission Churches largely within the Missouri Synod which underwent rapid Americanization and expansion during the 1920’s and early 1930’s in Chicago the nearby suburbs and across Northern Illinois. With a focus on establishing Sunday Schools shifting liturgy from German to English language and appealing to immigrant communities for growth these glass plate lantern slides appear to have been designed as a presentation for growing Lutheran Mission Churches as they spread through up-and-coming suburban neighborhoods in and around Chicago mostly within a 50 mile-or-so boundary line to downtown Chicago. Stately churches church interiors Sunday School interiors students pastors as well as church buses and surrounding areas are also depicted within the slides. Heavily influenced by Dwight L. Moody’s targeted Sunday School movement upon the inner city working poor during the 19th-Century the Evangelical Lutheran Mission Churches as depicted in the two maps inside the collection -- with one hand-coloured with red dots corresponding to the slides -- there was a decided interest to attract those migrating into the Chicago area including Japanese-Americans as depicted in slide No. 2 standing next to the sign for “Our Saviour’s Evangelical Lutheran Church†in Addison Heights Chicago.Identified churches and Sunday schools include those for Addison Heights Messiah School Archer Heights Congregation in Chicago Barrington congregation & church building Broadview & Maywood along Roosevelt about 12 miles west of downtown Chicago & Lake Michigan the Elizabeth parsonage which was the furthest West church in the North Illinois District nearly on the Iowa State line. Others include parishes in Elmwood Park Gage Park Irvingwood East Joliet Midlothian Naperville East Rockford Dixon Milford Geneva and the St. Charles Borromeo Church originally at the NW corner of 12th now Roosevelt and Cypress now Hoyne Ave. in the West Side neighborhood. Still more include Pastor Kroeger’s Winslow church; Pastor Kuehnert’s Cary Church Pastor Burgdorf’s Bethany Church along with two lantern slides of Pastor Brauer’s parish -- the Illinois State Women’s Prison and the State Penitentiary at Joliet. Surviving multimedia presentation archives such as this one are quite scarce and seldom feature the enhanced detail offered by the typescript list with this archive.

In Rays time understanding of creation was governed by the account in the Bible. It was thought that the earth dated from about 5000BC and that fossils were formed in nature as imitations of shells fish or other creatures but were not a genuine creature. Rays observations of the changing coastlines around Britain and his fossil excavations led him to question both of these. He published his work on Fossils in his Miscellaneous Discourses 1692. The work quickly sold out and a considerably enlarged second edition with a new title was published the next year which is the copy we offer here . In particular he put forward that fossils were the remains of creatures that were now extinct going against the commonly held view that all creatures that God created at the beginning still existed.

Henry Maundrell was the Levant Company's chaplain of Aleppo from 1696 to 1701. This work contains the first description of Balbec by an Englishman. Blackmer 1095. Cox i p.119. Tobler 116d17. Travelogues written by Europeans visiting Palestine after that period point to a shift in Europe's relationship to the region. Where medieval pilgrims had often wept or gone into trances upon their arrival in Jerusalem modern European visitors observed with curiosity what was before their eyes. They were traveling for pleasure and for cultural experiences; tourism was gradually replacing pilgrimage as a motive for visiting Palestine. By the end of the seventeenth century quite a few European tourists had already been to Jerusalem. The most famous among them was Henry Maundrell the author of the book A Journey from Aleppo to Jerusalem in 1697. The book would prove to be one of the most popular books about the East for centuries to come. By 1749 seven editions in different European languages had appeared and sections of the book continued to appear in collections of travel writings published both in the eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries.2 The lure of printed books in Europe and its American colonies might partially account for the initial popularity of A Journey but it can not explain why the book remained popular for the more than two centuries after its original appearance. The latter could be explained by the fact that the book is the narrative of a tourist rather than that of a pilgrim unlike the many other Palestine travel narratives that appeared before it. ; English Language; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; Jewish Studies Bible Biblica Travel Israel PalestineKabbalah Judaica Jewish Studies Hebrew Talmud Rashi .
