1700000819Boston Massachusetts MA 1700. On offer is a superb and important piece of Americana specifically a handwritten deed concerning the very important geographic area of Fort Warren which defends the harbor in Boston Massachusetts and has done so from 1861 through the end of World War II. To buffs of the Civil War it was also the location where the famous Union marching anthem 'John Brown' was written using a tune from an old Methodist camp song 'Glory Glory Hallelujah!' and signed by Isaac Addington who served on the Salem Witch Trial Grand Jury and Adam Winthrop the son of John Winthrop First Governor of Massachusetts. John Winthrop 1588-1649 is perhaps best remembered for the famous sermon in which he likened the Massachusetts Bay Colony to a 'city upon a hill' a model to the world of social and religious order." Ref: Wikipedia. This manuscript document is dated Boston 27 Dec 1700. Folded into thirds Calligraphic initials. SIGNED BY ADAM WINTHROP son of John Winthrop First Governor of Massachusetts and ISAAC ADDINGTON clerk of the Grand Jury during the Salem Witch Trials. This is the original deed referenced by Holmes Abiel 1763-1837. Cambridge : Hilliard and Brown 1829. from the Coll. Mass. HiM. Soc. iii. 299. which states: "In 1700 Adam conveyed the island to his son-in-law and daughter to be transmitted to their descendants. The Indenture handsomely written on parchment is now before me. It covenants and grants the island to "John Wainwright and to Ann his wife during the term of their natural lives and afterward to the use and behoof of the heires of their two body. begotten or to be begotten forever." The island was next owned by their son John Winthrop Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy In Harvard College; and next by his sons Hines and William of Cambridge lately deceased. James purchased of William his share and a few years since sold to the United States about five acres in two parcels at the east and west end of the island with a passage way rota the one to the other for the purpose of fortifications. On the west end has been erected Fort Warren which defends the entrance of the harbour." CONDITION: signatures are strong and legible majority of the deed legible though with age-wear sometimes serious rubbing and fading discoloration some holes; certainly not in the presumed fine condition when Abiel Holmes held the document in 1829 but certainly very presentable with the red wax seal still intact. This document is a wonderful tapestry comprised of the strands of early Colonial history. Inherited by his son Adam it links the famous Winthrop name from his namesake Grandfather Adam Winthrop 1548-1623 an English lawyer and famous Puritan reformer in the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods through his great grandson Professor John Winthrop who was intimately connected to Harvard University's early history. The document is also witnessed and signed by Isaac Addington the first Secretary of the Mass. Bay Colony from 1692 to 1714 who additionally served on the grand jury in the Salem witch trials. The trials famously resulted in the executions of 20 people 14 women 6 men. PROVENANCE: Most recently from a private collector the present condition suggests this deed has long been in private hands and not an institutional archive. While in the 1820s the deed was possibly present in the archives of the Mass Historical Society it did not remain in the archives long thereafter and entered less protected private circulation. That stated Mr. Jeremy B. Dibbell of the Massachusetts Historical Society has kindly confirmed that this document like others that have entered private hands is not the property of the Massachusetts Historical Society. .

1679605L18London: Various 1679-1680. First edition. Leather. Very Good. 12.5" by 8". None. A selection of very scarce pamphlet publications emphasising the anti-Catholic sentiment and hysteria caused by the 'Popish' plots against the British Monarchy in the seventeenth century. Eight extraordinarily scarce works on the Popish Plot with several not seen at auction since the 1970's. Comprising of eight works bound as one. The first five pamphlets regard Titus Oates William Bedloe and Miles Prance with their fictional 'Popish Plots'. These gentleman worked hard to convince the monarchy and general public that the Catholics and Jesuits intended to assassinate the King Charles II implicating many innocent people who lost their lives. The final three works focuses solely on Elizabeth Cellier an accused Catholic who was imprisoned for her involvement in the so-called 'Meal-Tub Plot' against James II Charles II's successor. Titus Oates also known as Titus the liar was an English perjurer who fabricated the 'Popish Plot'. This plot was a supposed Catholic conspiracy to assassinate Charles II. The first work to this book 'A True Narrative.' is the first edition and is Oates asserting and declaring this plot which led to the executions of at least 22 men. He was requested to publish his own narrative of the conspiracy which then took this form. Oates took advantage of the already existing Anti-Catholic sentiment which had flared from the King's marriage to the Catholic princess Catherine of Portugal. Oates and William Bedloe even tried to implicate the Queen in this plot. It later transpired that this plot was false and Oates was tried for perjury. 'A True Narrative of the Horrid Popish Plot.' is lacking the frontispiece and the first three leaves after title page work begins on the third page of the dedication to Charles II. 'The King's Evidence Justified.' is another work by Oates in the same year where he further defends his stance regarding this conspiracy. The ESTC notes that this work is a reply to Roger Palmer The Earl of Castlemaine a prominent Catholic who came under suspicion regarding this plot. Castlemaine was tried for treason and represented himself before becoming acquitted. 'A Modest Vindication of Titus Oates.' by Adam Elliot forms as the clergyman's memoir. He knew Oates from their time at Cambridge together and had some turbulence in their relationship. Oates had thrown some accusations around regarding Elliot to help undermine him as a witness in a legal case. He also created a lawsuit against Elliot accusing him of misdeeds during their Cambridge years. This memoir written by the Church of England Clergyman demonstrates how specious Oates's accusations against the Jesuits had been and refutes those accusations against himself. 'A Narrative and Impartial Discovery of the Horrid Popish Plot' is the account of one William Bedloe an English fraudster who chose to corroborate the previous claims of Titus Oates and continue the tale of a supposed plot made by the Catholics against the King. He claims that he knew the details of the supposed murder of magistrate Sir Edmund Berry Godfrey giving names of men he claims that he saw commit the crime stating that it was related to the 'Popish Plot'. For this information he was awarded £500. This work is Bedloe's chief writing and explores in detail his numerous allegations. The Oxford DNB notes that 'Bedloe was an opportunistic rogue fraud and criminal. His rambling evidence led to the deaths of a number of innocent people. Although he was less odious except to his victims than Titus Oates Bedloe's imposing personality and opportunism seem to have led his dupes not to see through his elaborate and to a neutral eye improbably lies until it was too late'. This work has an engraved portrait of Bedloe. 'A True Narrative and Discovery of Several Very Remarkable Passages' is a work by Miles Prance one of the men accused by William Bedloe for murdering Sir Edmund Berry Godfrey. Prance was committed to Newgate for this crime. Whilst in prison Prance confessed and then recanted. He then confessed again implicating several other innocent people in the murder which lead to their arrests and deaths. He gave evidence at the trial against these men and shared the reward money given with Bedloe. He also informed on many more Catholics under the influence of Titus Oates and William Bedloe. It was not until James II's reign that Prance was found guilty of perjury. This work is Prance's testimony regarding the murder of Godfrey and also includes information regarding a conspiracy to murder the Earl of Shaftsbury. This work has an engraved portrait of Prance. 'The Tryal and Sentence of Elizabeth Cellier' is the principal contemporary account of the notable Catholic midwife's treason trial for the alleged 'Meal-Tub Plot'. Cellier was innocent of this charge and was later acquitted. This work is the proceedings of Cellier's trial with information on the jurors and the court proceedings verbatim. Pagination to this work begins on C1r as called for. The 'Meal-Tub Plot' was given its name as this was the location incriminating documents were found. 'Malice Defeated' is Elizabeth Cellier's vindication of herself following her release from prison after being accused of plotting to murder James II. The work gives her account of events attacks her accuser Thomas Dangerfield and also discusses the treatment or torture of prisoners in Newgate prison she witnessed. This then led to her being put on trial for libel. Cellier gained a nickname as the 'Popish Midwife' from her enemies. She was a witty forthright woman who worked hard to advance the field of midwifery. 'Tho. Dangerfield's Answer to a Certain Scandaloud Lying Pamphlet' is a response to Elizabeth Cellier's 'Malice Defeated'. In this Dangerfield regards Cellier as a liar. Dangerfield's unreliability as a witness allowed Cellier's acquittal from her initial trial. Dangerfield published several pamphlets over time such as 'Dangerfield's Narrative'. Bound in a quarter calf binding with cloth covered boards. Externally generally smart with rubbing to the joints and to the extremities. Small cracks to the front joint at the head and tail. Minor loss to the head and tail of spine due tor rubbing. Internally firmly bound. 'A True Narrative of the Horrid Popish Plot.' is lacking the frontispiece and the first three leaves after title page work begins on the third page of the dedication to Charles II. Title page of 'A True Narrative of the Horrid Popish Plot' is spotted. Tidemarks from water damage to pages 11-32 of 'A True Narrative' to the outer margin resulting in a small loss to the bottom corner of pages 19-20 not affecting text.

Binding: Contemporary mottled full calf; expertly rebacked; spine with five 5 raised bands; gilt lettered title on morocco label on two; compartments with central gilt floral ornament; dated; endpapers renewed; all edges cut. Notes: PERELLE GABRIEL 1603/or 10/ or 20 - 1675/or77/ or 80 an eminent French designer and engraver born at Paris. He excelled in drawing and engraving landscapes and views of which we have a prodigious number which prove the fertility of his invention and an extraordinary facility of execution rather than an observant study of nature. They are however composed in a very pleasing style and executed with neatness and taste. He usually enriched them with ruins and other objects which give an agreeable variety to his scenery. His principal defect is in the management of his masses and his lights are scattered and in spots by which the general effect of his prints is materially injured. Although by far the greater part of his plates are from his own compositions he also engraved from the designs of several other masters particularly Paul Brill Gaspar Poussin Jan Asselyn and above all after Silvestre. He was assisted in his numerous works by his sons ADAM 1638/ or 40-1695 and Nicholas b.1631/ or 38- 1695 PERELLE who after his death engraved a great number of plates of architectural views landscapes &c. but which are inferior to those of their father. <br>He is considered the Hollar of France both in his style of engraving and the esteem in which his views are held. His large views of public buildings and gardens in France Italy and Spain were published with those of Silvestre in 1680; and there is a set of smaller views by these artists.<br><br> Size: oblong folio 285x370mm Illustration: Illustrated with 164 architectural etchings of palaces great houses and churches detailed views of their gardens gates squares fountains etc. The album of Perelle engravings depict four 4 overall areas 1.
