Very Good. <br/><br/> Twenty-seven pamphlets many of them extremely scarce from the Reorganized Church founded in 1860 in Illinois. Its separation from the Latter Day Saints occurred in the schism of 1844 after the murder of Joseph Smith and the ensuing dispute over the succession. The pamphlets reflect the doctrines of the Reorganized Church and its version of its history.

19145386Hartford Conn: The Burr Index Co. Printers 1914. Octavo 23.5 x 15.5 cm. xiv 80 xxii pages. Advertisements some illustrated. Index is actually a table of contents. Evident third edition; first appearance under this title. An enlarged revision of two earlier editions of 1890 and 1895 both titled Bazaar Cook Book. Three hundred attributed recipes gathered one surmises on the occasion of the two hundredth anniversary of the congregation's recognition as a parish of the "West Division" of Hartford. Among items of interest: Turbot á la créme baked in layers Beauregard Eggs visiting from points south Dolly Varden Cake a still-circulating tribute to a character from Dickens Ripe Currant Pie Hickory Nut Macaroons and Crab Apple Ginger. ~ At the turn of the eighteenth century the townspeople of Hartford supported three Congregationalist churches: First Church Second Church now South Church and Third Church today known as First Church of East Hartford. In 1711 approval was obtained to create a parish in the West Division and by 1713 a Fourth Church stood at what is now the corner of Farmington Avenue and Main Street. Several meeting houses would accommodate members in succession there and later on the opposite corner of the intersection. ~ After the separate incorporation of West Hartford in 1854 the fourth parish became the First Church of the new town. In June of 1882 a Gothic Revival edifice of Monson granite - Greystone Church - was dedicated noted for its grand stained glass windows and the pipe organ which had been salvaged from its predecessor across the street. One of its rooms served as West Hartford's Free Library until 1917 when the church's books were relocated to form the nucleus of the Noah Webster Public Library's collections. Which is to say that Greystone Church had become integral as a landmark of the town. One that perished sadly in a tumultuous fire in early January 1942. ~ Fine in publisher's light brown wrappers titled in darker brown backed in brown cloth. Scarce. Title registered in OCLC but identifier of holding institution deleted suggesting withdrawal; in neither Brown nor Cagle. The Burr Index Co., Printers hardcover books
