17957108s.l.: s.n. 1795. 4to pp. ii 95 1 folding genealogical chart. Extracted from a volume retaining portions of leather spine. Light soiling to front and rear. A scarce argument for the inheritance of John Stewart 7th Earl of Galloway 1736-1806 to give him a claim to the English peerage. Lord Galloway had already sat in the House of Lords as a Scottish representative peer and had done so since 1774 but faced re-election each parliament and lost his seat in the 1790 election. Whether on the strength of this argument or his service as a Lord of the Bedchamber Lord Galloway achieved his aim being created Baron Stewart of Garlies in the peerage of Great Britain in 1796 and thereby rejoining the Lords as a permanent member. Though anonymous this pamphlet was written by Eliezer Williams 1754-1820 chaplain and tutor to the Galloway family who had been enlisted to help investigate the pedigree. The table at the end mentions the death of Vice-Admiral Keith Stewart in March 1795 giving a terminus post quem for the publication. NLS and Hornel Gallery only in ESTC. ESTC T193376. [s.n.] hardcover
17827101s.l.: s.n. 1782. 4to pp. viii 27 1 176; 52. Extracted from a volume with portion of leather spine and label remaining. Some soiling to front and rear final page torn at gutter. Ownership inscription to title page of Sir Wm Forbes Bart. A rare document of a dispute of inheritance pursued by the daughter of Helenus Halkerston of Rathillet against the geologist Captain later Lieutenant-Colonel Ninian Imrie of Denmuir d. 1820. Miss Halkerston argues that the releveant deeds executed before her father’s death were invalid by reason of his insanity and apparently James Boswell was approached for an opinion though he declined. Halkerston had published a short work ‘Considerations on man in his natural as well as moral state’ in 1764 ‘solving all the phænomena of the animal world of our moral and physical intelligence &c. hitherto so much the subjects of dispute’ - a subsequent edition of which was appended to 400 pages of land ownership dispute under the new title of ‘An appeal to reason’ 1778 perhaps evidence for Halkerston’s mental state. Indeed the printer of the latter edition contributes much testimony here. The ESTC record is based on a single copy held in Aberdeen which lacks the title-page and the next leaf as well as the final leaf - and therefore is catalogued under a different title. ESTC T230518.

Pp. 401-413. <br/><br/><em>First printing of Galton's "Law of ancestral Heredity"Galton's ancestral law states that the two parent contribute between them on average one-half of the total heritage of the offspring the four grandparents one-quarter and so on. He interpreted this law both as a representation of the separate contributions of each ancestor to the heritage of the offspring and as a multiple regression formula for predicting the value of a trait from ancestral values.Garrison & Morton: 239. </em> unknown
