1893List316Chicago 1893. Broadside 11 ¾ x 5 ½ inches. Very Good. John Hutchison patriarch and leader of the Hutchinson Family Band was hired by the World's Fair Committee to perform as one of the "Wonders of America." This broadsheet unrecorded is a souvenir of his performance from the fair in which he sang "Prophecy of Freedom" a ballad with suffragist overtones that he had written in 1867. The Hutchinson Family singers had enjoyed a long and successful career at the point of the 1893 exhibition beginning as one of the most successful acts of the 1840s. <br /> Their support of abolition women's rights temperance and workers' rights had limited their following somewhat and following the Civil War their appearances in large cities were generally limited to churches temperance meetings and women's suffrage rallies. By 1893 John Hutchinson was at the tail end of his career - he would die fifteen years later - but was welcomed by attendants. William Lloyd Garrison would describe John Hutchinson's singing as "directly and purposely subservient to the freedom welfare happiness and moral elevation of the people." <br /> <br /> The broadsheet introduces the song as " sung at his meetings held during the 'Woman's Congress Campaign' through Kansas. dedicated to the 'World's Fair Congresses' and sung by him during that period when prominence was given to the 'Fatherhood of God and Brotherhood of Man' emphasizing the principle as a true method of restoring the unity of all good for the whole race of man." The Hutchinson Family Band embodied the ideals of the Second Great Awakening and this shows those ideals going strong at the dawn of the twentieth century. A well preserved example in very good condition with some light creases and normal tanning. Not recorded in OCLC. unknown books

188647661Brooklyn NY; Jamaica L.I. 1886. Full calf with brown-stamped borders to upper and lower boards gilt-stamped red calf label to backstrip. Some minor rubbing to extremities but otherwise VG. Approx. 126 ll. of ms receipts many tipped in. Oblong format 5- " x 7 ¼". <br/><br/>Cornelius Duryea and his seven daughters are part of the sixth generation of the Kissam family. The Kissams were early settlers on the North Side of Long Island and are fortunate to have had a detailed genealogy produced by Edward Kissam in 1892 which dates back to 1644. The family history is preserved by the Huntington Historical Society and many historic sites in Long Island can be traced back to the family. This receipt book chronicles 25 years of the proceeds of the estate of the late Cornelius Duryea after his death at age 74 in 1861. Most of his substantial estate was left to his wife and daughters. It is possible based on these documents that Edward Kissam’s genealogy mistakenly names a Wm. Wheeler as the husband of Josephine Duryea who’s married name here appears to be Woolley KISSAM 107. Signatures and receipts attributed to the following parties: Josephine H Woolley Caroline H Cornell daughter Phebe K Leech daughter Sarah Anne Van Duyn Sarah A Thorne daughter Abraham. P. Leech executor Seth Chapman also executor Thomas Bradlee Samuel Smith Ezra W. Conklin Deborah P. Cornell/Rhodes daughter Deborah Jane Duryea wife/executor John Gacy tax collector of Town & School IRS Receipt/Tax Receipts Receipt from James Hall Monumental Works Cornelius Duryea Chapman grandson. hardcover books
