pp. xx, 409 + Engraved portrait and facsimiles. 8vo. 22 cm. Crisp original blue cloth binding, decorated in black and gold. Sidney Smith (1771-1845) was one of the foremost English preachers of his da y; a champion of parliamentary reform; staunch advocate of Roman Catholic emancipation; and a figure famous for his intelligence, wit, and charm. After leaving Oxford he was ordained in the Church of England. He later attended lectures in moral philosophy, chemistry, and medicine at the University of Edinburgh, where he made many friends and helped to found 'The Edinburgh Review' (1802). For over twenty-five years he was a leading contributor to that important journal. In 1803 he moved to London and began a series of enormously popular lectures in moral philosophy. When the predominantly Whig ministry took office in 1806, Smith received the living of Foston-le-Clay, Yorkshire. At first he discharged his duties through a curate, until the Clergy Residence Act put an end to this common pract ice, and he left London for Yorkshire in 1809. Although he hated being isolated in Yorkshire, he won his parishioners' affection; and he continued to write effective polemics (especially on the Roman Catholic question). In 1828 he was installed as prebend of Bristol Cathedral. Under a Whig government it was expected that he would soon be a bishop; but opposition proved strong. Eventually, he succe eded in becoming a canon of St. Paul's Cathedral in London. On his brother Courtenay's death in 1839, Smith inherited a fortune, bought a house in London, and lived there until his own death. Scarce f irst American edition the 'standard' life of Smith. "Poverty is no disgrace to a man, but it is confoundedly inconvenient" - Sidney Smith. W140
1965008278London: Her Majestys Stationery Office & The Earl Marshal of England 1965. This is a small archive of five documents from the 30 January 1965 state funeral of Sir Winston S. Churchill. It is unusual to find a coherent set of such items identifiably belonging to a specific individual in this case Charles Paul Greenway 3rd Baron Greenway 1917-1975. The current 4th Lord Greenway is one of ninety elected hereditary peers remaining in the House of Lords after passage of the House of Lords Act 1999. <br /> <br />The documents included are: an embossed printed stamped an original ticket to the funeral issued by the Earl Marshal of England; printed GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS from the Earl Marshal for invited guests; a franked and stamped ON HER MAJESTYS SERVICE stationery envelope; two booklets available at the funeral - The Order of Service and The Ceremonial To Be Observed for the Funeral of The Right Honourable Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill K.G. O.M. C.H. 30th January 1965. The issuer of these documents the Earl Marshal of England is the hereditary office of the Duke of Norfolk whose duties include organizing major ceremonial state occasions such as coronations and state funerals. <br /> <br />The ticket is embossed with the sigil of the EARL MARSHAL OF ENGLAND. In calligraphy it specifies Block A and Row 17 and admittance for The Lord Greenway. The GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS document specifies the items provided Letter of Invitation Acceptance/Refusal Form Seating Ticket and Car Label and provides information on dress transport entry time and entry location for the Cathedral. The first two items specified as included with the GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS the Letter of Invitation and Acceptance/Refusal Form are crossed out with a single line in black ink. The ON HER MAJESTYS SERVICE" envelope which conveyed the formal invitation documents features the typed London address of The Lord Greenway. To the right is the ink-stamped frank from THE HOUSE OF LORDS S.W.1 OFFICIAL PAID. At the lower left is an elaborate crowned ink stamp of the HOUSE OF LORDS. The envelope was roughly opened upon receipt but is nonetheless complete. The invitation is fine apart from Greenway inked in blue-green on the verso. The General Instructions are creased once vertically and thrice horizontally ostensibly from original posting. <br /> <br />The final two documents were available at the funeral itself a pair of booklets that detail the elaborate funeral proceedings for Winston Churchill. These are The Ceremonial to be Observed at the Funeral of The Right Honourable Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill and The Order of Service for the Funeral of The Right Honourable Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill. Both of these documents are in very good condition apart from the same inked notation on each upper left front cover verso. The blue-green ink and hand ostensibly that of the Baron reads Present Greenway 3rd Baron & Baroness of Stanbridge Earls in the County of Southampton. <br /> <br />On Sunday 24 January 1965 Winston Churchill died at the age of 90. He had already become a living national memorial" of the time he had lived and the Nation Empire and free world he had served. His death completed his transformation into a national icon. <br /> <br />The next day on 25 January the Queen sent a message to Parliament announcing: "Confident in the support of Parliament for the due acknowledgement of our debt of gratitude and in thanksgiving for the life and example of a national hero" and concluded "I have directed that Sir Winston's body shall lie in State in Westminster Hall and that thereafter the funeral service shall be held in the Cathedral Church of St. Paul. <br /> <br />Churchill's full state funeral at the Cathedral of St. Paul in London was attended by the Queen other members of the royal family Prime Minister Harold Wilson and representatives of 112 countries.
