14023Both items dated from Birmingham England the bill on 1 November 1816 and the promissory note on 1 July 1817. Both signed boldly by Henry van War. The context of these documents is as follows. His brother Peter having fallen ill Washington Irving had taken over the running of the Liverpool office of his family firm which was forced to declare bankruptcy in 1818. Irving's brother-in-law Henry Van Wart had worked for the firm but had now moved to Birmingham where he would flourish. Both items are in fair condition on aged and worn paper. The bill is Van Wart's hand but the promissory note only carries his signature. Both have writing on both sides. The bill 10 x 23.5cm is embossed with a 7s 6d tax stamp. It reads: 'No. 1459 £439. 18. 6 Birmingham 1st Novr. 1816 Nine months after date pay to the order of Mess. Lewis Cooper & Co. Four hundred & thirty nine pounds 18/6 - value received Henry Van Wart To Mess P. Irving & Co Merchants Liverpool M115'. Countersigned : 'Accepted payable at dup & Rec'd Irving & Cos London P Irving & Co' and with two manuscript notations. On the reverse are three notes two of which read: 'In re Peter Irving & In re Washington Irving Exhibited March <> 1818 Henry Lawrence'presumably the bankruptcy proceedings and 'We the undersigned do hereby agree to release the within named Henry Van Wart from payment of this Bill in consideration of his having given us his note dated 1st July 1817 for 9/- in the Pound on the full claim against him & his Estate but without prejudice to any claim against the acceptors for Lewis Cooper & Co <>'. The promissory note 8.5 x 20cm is embossed with a 5s tax stamp. It reads 'No. 272 £195 - 12 - 9 Birmingham 1st July 1817 Eighteen Months after date I promise to pay Messrs. Lewis Cooper & Co. or order One Hundred & Ninety five pounds twelve shillings & nine pence value received - Henry Van Wart'. On reverse: 'Octr. 7th. 1818 Exhibited to N G C A M J. C' again paret of the bankruptcy proceedings. Van Wart's name is often given with a small 'v' to the 'Van' but it is clearly a capital in these two signatures. Note: Apparently no similar material concerning Washington Irving's time in his brother's business survives nor anything signed by Henry van Wart. See partial image. Both items dated from Birmingham [England], the bill on 1 November 1816, and the promissory note on 1 July 1817. Both signed bol unknown

Housed in a very nice felt-lined cloth folding box with red morocco back gilt lettering. For the binding: Ramsden p. 144. A little soiling to leather and a couple of trivial imperfections internally but a very fine copy inside and out.<br/> <br/> This pretty little prayer book is a lovely example of provincial English bookbinding and very typical of an era in which such luxurious volumes were popular gifts among the moneyed classes. The Russell firm is recorded by Ramsden as operating in Guildford in southern England and the ticket in the present book notes that they were also booksellers stationers printers cutlers and silversmiths in addition to binders. This charming devotional work has been carefully looked after by its previous owners and comes down to us in excellent condition. George Eyre and Andrew Strahan unknown

1758AQ32900London: s.n. 1758. 21pp 1. A variant issued without half-title or terminal 10pp of company bye-laws. Contemporary navy wrappers. Extremities worn and marked. Central vertical fold. Very occasional early manuscript annotations. A mid-eighteenth-century reissue of the rules and orders for the good government of the Bank of England; including the charter of incorporation issued by King William III and Queen Mary II on July 27th 1694. One wonders whether the republication of the charter in 1758 may have been occasioned by the execution of Stafford linen draper Richard Vaughan following his conviction for the forgery of a Bank of England note; the first conviction of its kind.

The 2 leaves lacking from Ss contained the "Form of Prayer with Thanksgiving" for the 23rd of December in honor of and by decree of King James II. The king was deposed in 1689 and it is likely that these pages were excised in light of that.
