18905207Washington DC: Judd & Detweiler Printer 1890. Octavo 19.5 x 13.5 cm. 110 pages. Subtitle on cover and flyleaf: A Cook Book. "Index" page 17 is actually a table of contents. Advertisements on pages 1-14 and 95-110. First edition. Two hundred twenty ascribed recipes gathered in support of a beloved urban space where "The seats in the church are free at every service". The dishes bear echoes of a British and conservative culinary orientation: Clam Chowder English Rice Pudding Farcied i.e. stuffed Tomatoes Shrove Tuesday Pancakes Apple Roly-Poly Pickled Lemons Shrewsbury Cakes Soft Gingerbread Fig Pudding. Included is a Plum Pudding that made the rounds in post-Civil War cookbooks attributed to Mrs. General Sherman. Seldom is the immediate fund-raising goal of a church cookbook forthrightly stated but Mrs. Valk and Miss Newton left no doubt: "The ladies who have compiled this little volume hope that it may accomplish the double mission of helping to conserve domestic serenity and of pushing forward the good work to which its proceeds are to be devoted-the erection of St. Paul's Parish Building". The community now known as St. Paul's Parish at K Street was born of the missionary fervor that swept Washington in the aftermath of the Civil War. The first church was constructed in 1868 on 23rd Street between Pennsylvania Avenue and I Street NW not far from Washington Circle. No photographs of this first building appear to have survived. At once resolutely Anglo-Catholic and "free" - that is without reserved or rented pews - St. Paul's has since that time embraced an urban mission at the heart of the District. After the federal government seized the location by eminent domain in 1944 St. Paul's congregation built the church it now occupies on the south side of K Street. A number of pages spot- or splatter-stained a few with marks in pencil. Some soiling to edges of text block; textblock firm despite shaken covers. Bound in red publisher's cloth stained with black titling and blind-stamped decorative pattern; corners bumped. Good. Scarce. OCLC locates two copies; Cook page 49; no in Brown or Cagle.

1892457459Cincinnati; Chicago 1892. Near Fine. A small archive of six letters written to C. Jay French general manager of the American Bell Telephone Company including two holograph letters and a telegram written in 1879 by the Theodore Vail who oversaw the building of America's first coast to coast telephone system. The remaining four letters are from four business colleagues in 1892. Each set of letters is neatly pinned together at the upper left corner: the first with an autograph note by French; and the second with a clipping outlining French's career. Both sets are in fine condition overall.<br /> <br /> Contemporary journalists called Theodore Vail the “Cincinnatus of Communications†and modern biographers call him “one of the two or three foremost organizing geniuses in the history of American industry.†In 1878 he was called to run Bell Telephone as its general manager just two years after Alexander Graham Bell patented his invention of the telephone in 1876. He helped establish the country’s first commercial telephone exchange lines in 1878 and organized the Bell empire in the 1880s.<br /> <br /> The two Vail letters retained by French reveal his direct management style: the first was written to the head of a regional Bell company at Cincinnati to introduce French: “… As he will be in your city for a few days I would like if you would give him all the insight possible into the manner of conducting an exchange and also any other information in regard to the Telephone business that may be in your power.â€<br /> <br /> The second letter outlines French’s duties: “You will make it your first duty to visit the different agencies of this Co. and establish a correct uniform and prompt system of reports to this Company … You will consult freely and fully with all agents … You will impress upon the agents the necessity of the Company being fully advised as to the operations of the agency. In all cases we desire reports of the business – In all cases also it is the desire of this Company that the agents’ interest be consulted.â€<br /> <br /> The other set of letters were written by four leading managers to congratulate French for his promotion to general manager of the American Bell Telephone Company in 1892. A scarce cache of letters documenting the beginning of America’s telephone exchange network. A list of both sets of letters is available. unknown
