1843AQ25880London: James Burns 1843. 4 49pp 1. With 13 hand-coloured engraved plates. Original publisher’s printed buff paper boards later rebacked. Boards rubbed and marked. Upper board and initial gathering held by single cord only. Presentation copy inked inscription to recto of FFEP: ‘From the Author’. The first edition of a handsomely illustrated anonymous verse account of the life of Christ from the nativity to the ascension composed in simple rhyming couplets for the benefit of a young readership. The only clue as to the identity of the author is provided by the dedication: 'To my little nephew Claude this poem is dedicated by his affectionate aunt G'. The British Critic and Theological Review Vol. XXIV 1843 was effusive in its praise; 'a great experiment and really to the best of our judgement a successful one. The difficulty of the task appears from the attempt not having been made before. The verses are very easy and though rather ballad in style are devoid of any palpable irrelevance. The plates are after the works of masters and in the style both of their drawing and of colouring remind one of the severe and simple effect of old painted windows'. OCLC records copies at locations BL Cambridge Louisiana and Toronto; COPAC adds no further. . First edition. 8vo. James Burns hardcover

18833005041883. 8"x5" 4pp handwritten letter dated November 16 1883 to a "A Lee Rothwell Wife" from 4 Church of Christ Elders: David Riggs G.G. Hertzog Robert Wilson and George D. Bower. ~~This tantalizing letter reads like a Congressional resolution in which the Elders lay out a few facts alongside a good deal of references to scripture to hint at some sort rupture between the Rothwells and the Church that they would see repaired. Apparently nearly a year earlier the Rothwells "did leave the communion.voluntarily and without just cause or justifiable reason; but in violation of the positive command of Jesus Christ.". This "disorderly and sinful conduct" caused the Church to withdraw fellowship. However they decided to write the letter in the hopes the Rothwells would return confess and they could all forget "the things that are past". ~~Who were A. Lee Rothwell and his wife Why did they leave the church and did they ever go back A very interesting and unique letter. Good. unknown
