Ridgeway London. This work was the product of the incarceration of the author - Reverend William Winterbotham 1763-1829. Winterbothams prosecution was a celebrated instance of overreaction by the authorities through nervousness in the wake of the French Revolution. <br /> <br />The sixth of fifteen children Winterbotham left school after an argument with the schoolmaster and thereafter apprenticed to a silversmith. He eventually started in business for himself as a silver buckle-maker but illness forced a temporary return to his parents. His early dissolute life changed when he underwent conversion. In 1787 he began to preach and in 1789 became a Baptist. In this newly found zealous life he ran afoul of the politics of the day. <br /> <br />In a sermon on 5 November 1792 on the double anniversary of the 1605 Gunpowder Plot and the revolution of 1688 Winterbotham made reference to the French Revolution and to contemporary abuses as he saw it of the contract between king and people. This aroused local feeling and a prosecution was talked of. In an attempt to put matters right he preached a sermon on 18 November but on 25 and 26 July 1793 he was tried at the Exeter assizes for both sermons and found guilty. The result was a significant fine and imprisonment most of which he spent at Newgate prison. <br /> <br />It was in Newgate that Winterbotham wrote An Historical Geographical and Philosophical View of the Chinese Empire as well as An Historical Geographical Commercial and Philosophical View of the American United States. Upon release from Newgate in November 1797 Winterbotham returned to preaching. He was publicly ordained in 1801. He was frequently invited to preach around the country and in 1812 was one of the signatories to the formation of the Baptist Union.

1682028701UK 1682. First Edition . Paper. Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. An Original Handwritten and Signed Property Deed Transfer in Relation and signed by Robert Jago of Wendron. The land in question is in the parish of Helston. Dated 1682. The only person of that period in this small village of Wendrun was the Reverend Rev Robert Jago who was a famous Ghost Layer. According to Robert Hunt in his book The Popular Romance of the West Country published in Reverend Robert Jago was able to converse with the 'invisible world' and the people of Wendron where he was the vicar in the 17th century believed him to have supernatural powers. Hunt wrote that the whole community was frightened of Parson Jago. They believed he had second sight and would use his powers to see if they were behaving themselves! He was able to instantly pick out a thief in a crowd and any guilty person felt instantly compelled to confess their sins the moment he looked at them. It seems to me that Jago ruled over his parish with a fist of iron perhaps creating this terrifying persona to keep his congregation in line. The most famous story about Parson Jago is also the most bizarre. He is said to have had spirits which waited on him and were in effect his servants. These ghosts were invisible to everyone until the clergyman commanded them to appear. The parson rode far and wide over the moorland of his parish. He never took a groom with him for the moment he alighted from his horse he had only to strike the earth with his whip and up came a demon-groom to take charge of the steed." As for his ghost-laying skills Jago reportedly exorcised a ghost who had been haunting a local farmer. Close to Wendron there is a crossroads on a road called Rowes Lane. The crossroads was supposedly the final resting place of a man called Tucker who had taken his own life. Sadly victims of suicide weren't allowed to be buried in consecrated ground at that time. According to the story the lane was haunted and avoided by local people after dark but the farmer coming home drunk from market decided to walk down it and began shouting 'Arise Tucker!'. This he did several times and eventually Tucker's ghost appeared and from then on would not leave the farmer alone. Jago was sent for and was able to lay the spirit on Tucker to rest with ease. Robert Jago died in 1685. Size 275mm x 180mm. Condition is average. Age toned and heavily stained. Light folding creases. More images can be taken upon request. Ref17703 <br/> <br/> unknown
