A brief Memoir of 8 pp. followed by seven sermons from the Psalms.William Laud 1573-1645 royal chaplain to James I. archbishop and religious advisor to Charles I.; he wielded immense power in the Church of England. Archbishop Laud was of a High-Church and anti-Puritan persuasion and used his power to suppress Puritanism to the best of his ability. He was loyal to the Crown and was accused of arbitrary and tyrannical acts against those whose religious views he condemned. He was fiercely resisted by the Church of Scotland. Many of the Church of England admired him for his resistance to Calvinism and Independency and for his defense of the doctrines of the Church of England. After the overthrow and execution of Charles I. Laud himself was tried and executed by the House of Commons."This venerable prelate a victim to sectarian violence and blood-thirsty ambition evinced in his last moments the animating power of that religion which he had preached and professed. No murmurs or lamentations escaped him: in prayers and supplications he bowed himself before heaven; though he was long prepared for that blow which was neither sudden or unexpected. Thus died as he had lived in the true spirit of genuine piety this zealous servant of the most high God a martyr to the cause of truth being persecuted even unto the death by the blood-thirsty and remorseless Calvinists of that gloomy period." - J. W. Hatherell in the Memoir prefacing the reprint of Laud's Sermons 1829 p. xiii. Rivingtons hardcover

1888005101Brookline Mass: Safety Cannon Company 1888. 1st Edition. Print. Very Good/As New. Double Elephant - over 25 - 50" tall. ca. 1888. 1st edition. A Very Good broadside. The broadside measures 21.5" x 28"; matted in a mid-20th century wood frame 37" x 33" with glaze. Quarter size hole in the upper decorative border; minor creases and age-toning. Very Good in frame. With 8 lines of text this Point of Sale poster/broadside declares "For Sale Here" at the bottom. It has two large engravings at the top showing how the cannon is loaded and fired with fire-crackers. Just below the name Home-Guard Safety Cannon it states " This Newly Patented Fire-arm uses Fire-Crackers for Cartridges." The company's founder John J. Laud patented the invention in the US in 1887 and in Canada in 1888 so the date of the broadside must be close to this date. Also when his son-in-law took over the company the cannon's wheels changed from 6 spokes to 10 as well as a drop in quality of casting to increase profits. The 6 spokes of the wheels are clearly seen in the illustrations. Not examined out of frame . Safety Cannon Company unknown
