The Four Gospels

1911021486East Aurora NY: The Roycrofters 1911. First Edition. Quarter Leather. Very Good. Paper covered boards with a leather spine. 130 pp. SIGNED with a lengthy inscription by Marilla Ricker on the first endpaper. The inscription reads in part "So far as I've heard no Christian has arisen to state that the morals of the Rev. Clarence Richeson were contaminated by reading the works of Paine or Ingersoll. The Rev. claims to be a product of the Christian bible and he's still talking of his god and his bible." Ricker is referring to Clarence Richeson an on and off again minister for a variety of congregations who apparently suffered many bouts of insanity and was hospitalized several times. He also was engaged to many young women sometimes several at once. In 1911 he poisoned and murdered Avis Linnell and was sentenced to death. He was executed in early 1912. Given that the reverend was alive until early 1912 it is possible this was inscribed sometime in late 1911. A collection of four essays on four figures in history: Robert G. Ingersoll Thomas Paine John Calvin and Jonathan Edwards as well as an essay asking "What is Prayer" Ricker reflects on Robert G. Ingersoll his agnosticism and skill as an orator as well as his advocacy for freethought and questions Theodore Roosevelt's criticisms of Thomas Paine among other subjects. Marilla M. Ricker was the first woman admitted to the NH bar as well as being admitted to the bar in Washington DC in 1882. She pushed for prison reform and worked free of charge for many of her clients. Ricker was also a strong advocate for women's suffrage being the first woman to attempt to vote in New Hampshire arguing that she had a right to do so as a property owner in Dover NH. She also was a key figure in the freethought movement. VERY GOOD condition. Minor soiling and edgewear to the covers. Leather rather scuffed along the hinges. Minor toning in the interior.

The Revolution. October 1 1868. Vol. II. No. 13

1868020147New York: Susan B. Anthony Proprietor; R.J. Johnson Publisher 1868. Wraps. Good. Side sewn journal. Approximately 12 ¼ by 9 inches. 16 pp. Early issue of the Revolution a groundbreaking and influential newspaper produced by Elizabeth Cady Stanton Susan B. Anthony and Parker Pillsbury. The paper was established to provide a voice to activists and suffragists such as Stanton and Anthony whose voices were marginalized by the mainstream press as well as many abolitionist publications with whom they had been previously allied. Anthony and Stanton advocated for an amendment giving suffrage to women along with the amendment sponsored by abolitionists that would give Black men the right to vote. Many abolitionists actively discouraged Stanton and Anthony from pursuing their amendment until the amendment enfranchising Black men passed creating a rift in the abolitionist movement as well as the women's suffrage movement. Feeling betrayed by abolitionists and Republicans who initially supported them they established the Revolution with financial help from George Francis Train a Democrat who supported women's rights but was openly racist. As the name indicates The Revolution adopted a combative radical tone with Stanton and others unafraid to take on critics. The paper openly discussed sexual and physical abuse in marriage and advocated better divorce laws that would offer women a way to escape abusive marriages. In 1869 the paper broke with Train who had supplied very little of the funding he initially offered. It published until 1872 struggling to make expenses along the way. This issue with a lengthy column editorial correspondence written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton on her travels in the US spanning almost two pages. Other pieces by Stanton discuss "National Labor Congress;" "Frank Blair on Woman's Suffrage;" and "Adah Isaacs Menken." Two lengthy pieces print quotes speaking from two meetings of the Workingwoman's Workingwomen's Association printing the discussion between Susan B. Anthony and others. GOOD condition. Several fold creases present with other general wrinkling. Minor toning and scattered soiling in the interior. Susan B. Anthony, Proprietor; R.J. Johnson, Publisher unknown

These proceedings open with an address by King George to parliament regarding the American Revolution. It begins "Nothing could have afforded me so much satisfaction as to have been able to inform you at the opening of this session that the troubles which have so long distracted my colonies in North America were at an end; and that my unhappy people recovered from their delusion had delivered themselves from the oppression of their leaders and returned to their duty .". After this address various members of parliament respond some with support for the war and others advocating granting America its independence. Some of these speeches go into detail in regard to troops morale conduct propaganda in the US press especially propaganda by General Gage. Also discussed within are Britainn's defenses against Spain and France Jamaica and many other interesting topics. The debates over the war with America are amazing historical references serving to frame the Revolutionary War through the eyes of the British.
