1873113261London Oxford Cambridge: Rivingtons 1873. Octavo pp. i-v vi-viii 1 2-279 280: printer's imprint 96-page publisher's catalogue dated "August 1881" inserted at rear original decorated green cloth front and spine panels stamped in gold gray coated endpapers all edges untrimmed. First edition. "Collection of sixty-three fictional pieces all with some moral to be discerned in them though it's not always clear. Some are very short indeed including a number of animal fables while others are fully developed short stories. 'Bad Air and Water' lays the downfall of twin girls despite the generous gifts of a fairy godmother to a negligent mother who let them read . sensation novels! Some present parables. Another ruefully meditates on the unhappy fate of the man who invented the 'glossometre' which records and classifies a person's statements 'Observations on the weather 100; on the crops 50; to his own praise 100; to his neighbor's blame 200; faults found with others which are also his own 199.'. Nobody will keep it and it is turned out of every home as well as a pulpit. The collection presents a study in a cluster of related literary styles that are largely out of favor today but which have been historically important and which have shaped the work of such authors as Nathaniel Hawthorne and Franz Kafka." - Robert Eldridge. Allibone Supplement p. 816. Cloth rubbed and lightly worn at spine ends corner tips and along outer hinges a very good copy. #113261 Rivingtons unknown books

184629011Boston: Dutton and Wentworth Printers 1846. Original printed salmon wrappers stitched 48pp. Occasional light spotting Very Good.<br/><br/> "The letters concern Rev. Adams' refusal to grant letters of recommendation from his church to the Payson church of which Rev. Fairchild was pastor because of accusations of immoral conduct against Fairchild" Cohen. The Payson church was thus deprived of "the fellowship of sister churches." Fairchild had allegedly seduced a young woman Rhoda Davidson of Edgecomb Maine while she was a domestic in his family. She had a child and nominated Fairchild as the father. Ecclesiastical trials ensued. Fairchild claimed that rival ministers one of whom was Reverend Adams had defamed him by calling him an habitual libertine and adulterer. Adams as Fairchild puts it "publicly said that there was more guilt resting on my head than on the head of any man who walks the streets of Boston or words to that effect." <br/> The Payson Church Committee examines the relevant documents and concludes "We clearly saw that no guilt had been proved against him and therefore felt bound to regard him as innocent wondering how any human creature could have a heart to add another grain to his load of suffering or inflict one fresh wound on his wife and children. We deem him one of the most injured and persecuted clergymen which the history of this country can furnish."<br/>Cohen 13687. AI 46-54 5. Dutton and Wentworth, Printers unknown books
