1760381611760 In-12, broché, couverture bleutée de papier ancien de livraison, 40 p. S.l.n.d. [1760].
In-12, broché, couverture bleutée de papier ancien de livraison, 40 p. Edition originale et unique. Magistrat normand, François-Jean Orceau, baron de Fontette (1718-1794) fut nommé par Louis XV intendant de la généralité de Caen en 1752 et devint un acteur important du développement de cette ville. Favorable aux idées physiocratiques, il fit construire dans sa généralité de nombreuses routes en finançant les travaux par la fiscalité plutôt que par la corvée, comme c’était alors l’usage. Quesnay cita cette expérience en exemple dans une lettre à Mirabeau de sept. 1760 (OEuvres, INED, II, p. 1190). "Comment remédier aux inconvénients de la corvée en nature et de l’imposition en argent pour la construction des grands chemins: faire choisir les paroisses entre la corvée en nature et l’imposition en argent, établie d’après la répartition de la taille" (INED, p. 249). La lettre qui accompagne le Mémoire (p. 3-4) est signée "Fontette" et datée de Tilly le 18 août 1760. ("Annales de Normandie", 1959, IX, p. 126). WorldCat ne recense que deux exemplaires de cette brochure dans le monde. Quelques petites piqûres. Bon exemplaire.

18693723Galveston Tx 1869. Very good. 2pp. on a single folded folio sheet of lined paper with integral blank plus fourteen partially-printed receipts completed in manuscript. Minor dust-soiling creasing and edge wear. A post-Civil War manuscript agreement from Texas with the signatures of twenty-six investors transferring their stock in the Brazos Iron Bridge Company to John Sealy of the Galveston Harrisburg and San Antonio Railway Company. Additionally the document is noted and signed on the verso by Sealy transferring those same shares to Thomas W. Peirce. The document is accompanied by fourteen receipts for installment payments on capital stock purchased in the Brazos Iron Bridge Company some of which relates directly to the larger transfer agreement. The Brazos Iron Bridge Company was organized in 1867. Its mission was to construct a railway bridge across the Brazos River. The bridge completed in July 1869 was purchased by the Buffalo Bayou Brazos and Colorado Railway later known as the Galveston Harrisburg and San Antonio Railway Company. When the dust settled on the various transactions among the shareholders John Sealy owned a one-eighth interest in the railway company. Sealy moved from Pennsylvania to Galveston in 1846 and became an important early Galveston merchant real estate investor and railroad magnate. unknown
