He was the only son of a sturdy and prosperous farmer, Elijah Hurst. His mother was Ann Cath- erine (Colston) Hurst. His grandfather, Samuel Hurst, was a soldier in the war of the Revolution. His parents were earnest and devout Methodists. The frame farm house near Salem, Dorchester County, Maryland, in which he was born, August 17, 1834, is still standing. This home of his infancy was exchanged when he was about four years old for the farm known as Piney Neck, later called Bonnie Brook, about five miles from Cam- bridge, on Hurst Creek, a branch of the Choptank. Here he spent his boyhood days and in a little schoolhouse nearby re- ceived his initiation into the world of letters. In the later forties he was a promising student in the Cambridge Academy and united with the Methodist Episcopal Church of that town on profession of faith. He showed a positive trend while in his early teens toward the study and acquisition of languages. One day his fondness for books led to his carrying a favorite volume under his arm when sent by his father to water the horses. He rode the leader to the trough and while the herd of six or eight were leisurely drinking he slipped off, seated himself on a block and in a trice was lost in the entrancing pages. The horses took care of themselves. His father finding the lad with the tell-tale book in his hand, exclaimed — " Well, John, it's no use. You'll never be a farmer ; you may go to college." He entered Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pa., in 1850, graduated Bachelor of Arts in 1854, and received his Master's degree in 1858. His Alma Mater conferred the Doctorate in Divinity in 1866, and Princeton University bestowed the same honor in 1896. Indiana Asbury University (De Pauw) and Dickinson College each gave him the Doctorate of Laws in 1877. His tastes for history and linguistics became more pronounced under the fostering care of able and discriminating teachers during his college course, and his conviction that he should prepare himself for the Christian ministry became a settled one, though involv- ing an abandonment of the law, to which his friends and his own thought had for some time pointed him. After graduation he taught, first in a common school for a few months at Greensboro, Maryland, and then for nearly two years in the Hedding Literary Institute, which ran a brief career of about four years in Ashland, N. Y., among the Catskills. His department was Latin and Greek, with some occasional work in English and a few lectures. One of the lady teachers of this school was Miss Kate E. La Monte, in charge of the ornamental branches. In 1859 she became Mrs. Hurst. John Burroughs was one of his pupils in Ashland. To equip himself both in body and mind more thoroughly for his life work, he spent a part of two years, 1856 and 1857, in Europe, dividing his time between attendance upon lectures at the Universities of Halle and Heidelberg, and making several journeys, some of them on foot, in Switzerland and other parts of the Continent. He returned to America in the autumn of 1857, and began preaching in January, 1858, as a supply " under the presiding elder" on the Carlisle circuit, then a part of the Baltimore Conference, with his headquarters at Mechanicsburg, Pa. In the following spring he joined the Newark Conference at its first session, and was assigned to Irvington, N. J., where he labored for one year. He was ordained deacon by Bishop Scott in i860, and elder by Bishop Morris in 1862. His pastorates after the first were at Passaic; Elizabethport; Water Street, Eliza- beth; and Trinity, on Staten Island; each for two years, though the last named was cut short by his acceptance in the autumn of 1866 of the professorship of theology in the school for Ger- man preachers at Bremen, Germany, later removed to Frankfort- on-the-Main under the name of the Martin Mission Institute. In 1871, after five years of successful teaching and administra- tion in the Fatherland, interspersed with travel through the principal countries of Europe, Egypt and Syria, he was sum- moned to the Chair of Church History in the Drew Theological Seminary, which he filled for nine years. In 1873 to his duties as professor were added the burdens and honors of the presi- dency of the same institution. Under his leadership the semi- nary grew steadily and, when its entire endowment was swept away as by a storm In a night, it was, through his eloquent plead- ings in public and his untiring efforts in private, more than replaced before his election to the Episcopacy. He was elected a bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church in May, 1880, and adorned that high office for twenty-three years by the consecration of his extensive learning, his tireless indus- try, his trained talents, and his careful and painstaking judg- ment to the interests of the Church and of Christian civilization. His official residence was at Des Moines from 1880 to 1884; at Buffalo from 1884 to 1888, and from 1888 to the time of his decease at Washington. His travels in the discharge of the functions of a general superintendent covered all the states of the Union, some of them many times over, Europe, India and Mexico. His last public service was his response to the addresses of welcome on the opening day of the third Ecumenical Metho- dist Conference in London in September, 1901. He was chosen in May, 1891, Chancellor of The American University, and served without compensation in that office until December, 1902, when failing health compelled him to resign. He is regarded as the founder as well as the first chancellor of this great educa- tional enterprise at the capital of the nation. His decease occurred at Bethesda, Maryland, May 4, 1903. LITERARY AND BIBLIOGRAPHIC. Since his college days, through a half century of continuous and energetic activity among men and public affairs, his pen has been the busy and ready instrument of a marvelous literary fecundity and industry. His contributions to the periodical press alone in America and England number several hundred, and consist of literary articles, book-reviews, stories, comments on leading characters and issues, editorials, sketches of travel, and a very few verses. He translated Hagenbach's History of the Church in the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries (I869); Van Osterzee's Apologetical Lectures on John's Gospel (1869); and Lange's Commentary on the Epistle to the Romans, with additions (1870). He edited, with Henry C. Whiting, Seneca's Moral Essays, with Notes (1877); with George R. Crooks, the Library of Biblical and Theological Literature, a series of vol- umes not yet completed (1879 ff-): ^^^ "^'^^^ ^^^ others the American Church History series, thirteen volumes (1892-1895). He was an associate editor of Johnson's Cyclopedia, eight vol- umes (i 892-1 895). His own published books and pamphlets with dates of issue make up this splendid list: Why Americans Love Shakespeare, 1855 ; History of Rationalism, 1865 (rev. ed., 1901); Martyrs to the Tract Cause, 1872 ; Outline of Bible History, 1872; Life and Literature in the Fatherland, 1874; Outline of Church History, 1875 ; Our Theological Century, 1876 ; Christian Union Necessary for Religious Progress and Defense, 1880; Bibliotheca Theologica, a Bibliography of Theo- logy, and General Religious Literature, 1883 ; Theological En- cyclopaedia and Methodology, with George R. Crooks, 1884 (rev. ed. 1894); The Gospel a Combative Force, 1884; Short History of the Reformation, 1884; The Success of the Gospel and the Failure of the New Theologies, 1886; Short History of the Early Church, 1886 ; Short History of the Mediaeval Church, 1887; The Theology of the Twentieth Century, 1887; Short History of the Modern Church in Europe, 1888 ; The Wedding Day, 1889 ; Short History of the Church in the United States, 1890 ; Parochial Libraries in the Colonial Period, 1890; Indika: The Country and People of India and Ceylon, 1891 ; Short History of the Christian Church, 1893; Literature of Theology, 1896; Journal of Captain Wil- liam Pote, Jr., 1896; History of the Christian Church, 2 vols., 1897-1900; The New Hearthstone, 1901 ; and the History of Methodism, in five volumes, now in press (1904). THE BIBLIOPHILE. How he loved books and how keen was his scent for rare literary treasures at the age of twenty-two, is indicated by cer- tain autobiographic references taken from one of his papers entitled "About a Book Auction in Germany ": " As to taste I was always fond of everything old; had more liking for an old wall than a new palace; loved the old, jaundiced rag-woman better than my neighbor's sweet prattler; preferred a hollow log for a seat to the richest ottoman; always gave more for the first than for the last edition of a work, other things being equal ; liked half-effaced pictures better than the glowing colors of new ones; had a passionate love for old maps and designs, and yet could not boast the slightest practical acquaintance with art; in fact I fell in love with everything that could boast a coat of the 'charming dust • .... I stood one day in a Brunswick street and read a large placard announcing a great sale of old books, curious coins pictures, shells, manuscripts and relics. The bill closed with the informa- tion of the place where a complete catalogue could be found giving many- useful facts concerning the articles to be sold. My blood was at once crazy within me. I rushed over the grandest bridge in Brunswick without stopping a moment. Two old churches did I pass without thinking to look up at a single gargoyle. Soon I had the catalogue and taking the nearest street to my lodgings I neither ate nor slept until I had read every word of its precious contents. I closed it with an agitated frame and lost appetite. Nor did sleep come to my eyelids that night, and I was blessed with none save short and nervous snatches for the three nights and days that inter- vened before the antiquarian auction." His interest in old books was always marked by a vital link connecting them with the life and thought of the present ; it grew with his growth and strengthened with his strength ; yet it was ever held in subordination to his dominant passion for useful work. His pen-work was his by-play, an overflowing store; Of books maker and lover, his love for men was more. Not theory, but practice, the touchstone of his ken; No brooding, hiding hermit, brave man amongst strong men. Book-hunting was his choice recreation, though a close second was travel on foot. His happiest and most successful vacations were those in which these rivals were yoked together. A walk that promised punctuation by a chance at the drawers and corners and upper shelves of some book-stall had no superior as a spur to his striding pace. A book-shop three or four miles distant from his lodgings drew him more strongly than one near at hand — the enchantment lent to it not being due to mere distance, but rather to the opportunity to step it off in lively and tonic fashion. His daily and voluminous corre- spondence, entailing a great variety of cares and burdens, was lighted up and lightened by the ever-present bibliographic mes- sage. Booksellers were by no means the only ones to whom he wrote, when the emergency did not suggest the telegraph, but soldiers and sailors, consuls and missionaries, or whoever might be in touch with specimens of literature, ordinarily inaccessible, in any part of the postal world, were on his address list. His journeys by car and steamer and stage were often relieved of monotony by the study and butchery of the "cats." which had accumulated on his desk since his last trip. His favorite method of search was of the mousing kind, especially where the deposits had outgrown the primal plan of the shop and found their over- flow into every sort of cranny or angle, or even invaded the most private precincts of the dealer's sanctum sanctorum. He was usually present by proxy at the leading book sales in New York, Boston and Philadelphia, and was as eager to learn the results of the bidding and the destination of particular items as the angler is to know where the shining sides of the largest trout have been latest seen, since the wary prize slipped from his own hook. How well he succeeded in landing his game let the pages which follow testify. (Rev.) Albert Osborn. npHE library of Bishop Hurst comprises a variety of special -*■ collections possessing strong American interest, and is essentially a library of Americana. It contains particularly early Mexican imprints, 1 540-1 595, antedating by many years the first books printed in the American Colonies ; works printed in the native languages of Mexico, including many items un- known to the most successful collectors of Mexican books ; works in the Indian languages of North America ; writings of the Mathers and other early New England divines ; works printed at the earliest German presses established in America ; books printed by Benjamin Franklin and his associates ; early New England Primers, including several editions before 1800 wholly unknown to Paul Leicester Ford, whose bibliography of the " Little Bible of New England " was believed to be authorita- tive and complete ; books from the Washington library, many of them with his autograph and book-plate ; books printed by Caxton and other early English printers ; specimens of the early Continental typographers ; original manuscripts of Poe, Scott, Irving, Coleridge, Moore, and others. The autograph letters of Washington include several of the finest specimens which have ever been offered for sale. Bishop Hurst's collection of books printed in the Nahuatl or Aztec language of Mexico is easily superior to any previously offered, and his collection of books printed in, or relating to, the Native North American languages rivals in extent and importance the greatest collections formed in the past. The Mather collection, chiefly comprising the works of In- crease and Cotton Mather, is one of the features of the New England portion of the library, and the collection of New England Primers is the most remarkable collection of these books since the third Brinley sale in i88r. The present catalogue comprises only the Washington and Franklin collections, not including, however, the autograph and manuscript material. The Washington collection is one of the most valuable gatherings of the kind ever formed, containing over twenty volumes bearing the famous autograph of George Washington on the title-page, and a number of the books contain his authentic book-plate. One of the most attractive portions of the Franklin collec- tion — an extensive part of the library — is the special gathering of almanacs issued by Franklin. The earliest " Poor Richard " which Brinley could find was the issue of 1736; the earliest found by Stevens was 1 740 (imperfect), his earliest perfect copy bearing the date of 1741. Bishop Hurst has the number for 1 739, not found by the other collectors, and also the one for 1 744, unprocurable by them. There are also nine of the " Pocket Almanacks " from 1752 to 1766. The"Cato Major" of I 744 is represented by no less than six copies, some of which are in exceptional condition. The collection of books and pamphlets printed by Franklin and his partners, books written by him, and other Frankliniana, is one of the largest ever offered for sale. Many of the imprints are of •' .aordinary rarity, and several were not in the Brinley and Stevens libraries. R. F. R. Xibrari^ of Bishop John f. Iburst TAe following items belonged to Gen.

Washington as gifts, but an entry in Washington's Account Book under date of May 27, 1794, reads as follows : Delivd the President to remit to Mr. Anderson on accot of his publication — -The Bee — $28.(>(>. 3 BROWNE (ARTHUR).

Copied, by- special permission, from original papers preserved in the office of the Secretary of State, Philadelphia. 2 vols. 8vo, half calf, paper sides. London: 1795. * This collection was edited by John Carey, LL.D., a brother of Mathew Carey. In regard to his work, he wrote to Washington from London, March 31, 1795, as follows: ' ' Sir : By the ship Factor, Captain Bowen, I have the honor of ' ' transmitting to Your Excellency two copies of your letters to Congress, " written during the first four years of that memorable contest, etc.'" ' ' Respecting the plan of publication that I have adopted, which I ' ' fear Your Excellency will at first sight disapprove, and which is far ' ' from being satisfactory to myself, T would beg leave to refer to one " of the copies above mentioned — the one in boards — containing some ' ' manuscript remarks expressive of the motives that influenced me on " the occasion." From the above it appears that the Editor sent two copies of his work to Gen. Washington. One of them — described as " The Gem of Washington's Library" — was sold in Phila. in 1895, and fetched the sura of $1,650. THE COPY NOW OFFERED IS THE SPECIAL ONE REFERRED TO, CONTAINING THE MANUSCRIPT REMARKS (3 pp.) AT END, AS WELL AS A LARGE NUMBER OF MARGINAL EXPLANATIONS, WHICH WERE COMMUNICATED BY THIS METHOD FROM THE EDITOR TO Gen. WASHINGTON. The notes at the end are printed in Mr. Griffin's Catalogue {Boston Athenaum Collection). It bears the autograph of Washington on each title, and also the names of Gnl. Turner, 1834, and H. S. Turner. OF SUPERLATIVE INTEREST.

"This volume in typography and general appear- ance quite similar to the previous German issues of the Franklin press, and as rare, contains another instalment of mystic hymns numbering 32, of which 28 were written by Conrad Beissel. The very abstruse preface is dated: Ephratha in der gegend Canestoges, den 27. April 1736. The first of the Conventual buildings at Ephrata was erected in 1735. The above appears to be the earliest public mention of the name." — Seide7isticker. The earliest known Ephrata imprint is 1745.

PREFATORY. '"pHE second portion of Bishop Hurst's Library, contained in 1 _ the following pages, comprises the large and valuable col- lection of books in the languages of North and South America or relating to those languages, the collection of the writings of the Mathers, the New England Primers, and some material not perhaps of such extreme importance as the subjects mentioned, but yet of considerable interest. In the first session the Mathers commence the more impor- tant part 6f the sale, and leading the way is the exceedingly interesting volume which originally belonged to the noted divine Edward Taylor, of Westfield, and later to Ezra Stiles, con- taining the written petition of the former to Sir William Phipps concerning the estate of a kinsman, to which he laid claim ; the 1670 edition of Samuel Mather's Testimony printed by Samuel Green at Cambridge, Mass., and several other interesting pamphlets. Among the other works of note are Increase Mather's first book, " The Mystery of Israel's Salva- tion," published in 1669 ; his " Wicked Man's Portion," the first book printed in Boston, as also the second book printed in the same city, "The Times of Men," and many others. Increase Mather's famous son Cotton is represented by the unique copy of his " Magnalia," which was at one time in the collections of Brayton Ives and of William Menzies. The old method of measuring sizes of leaves by eighths of inches has given way to the more exact French millimetre, and the size given by that method in the catalogue description will form a better guide for comparison with other copies, the result of which cannot fail to show the remarkable state of this example. Another interesting point in connection with this book is the slight difference in one of the copies, suggesting that there must have been more than one issue, of which the uncorrected copy was undoubtedly the earliest, and issued before Cotton Mather ascer- tained the faults which he amended by his leaves of errata. Among the other writings by the same author are his " Military Duties Recommended," preached in Charleston in 1686 ; his " Souldiers Counselled and Comforted," preached in 1689 on the occasion of the departure of some of the New England troops to take part in the first inter-colonial war ; his " Present State of New England," written in connection with the same event; the curious " Christianus Per Ignem," perhaps the most quaintly amusing of his metaphorical writings ; the very rare first edition of his " Essay to Do Good," etc. The collection of New England Primers is possibly the most remarkable gathering of these rare books that has ever been put on the market. The Brinley Sale in 1881 formed an era in the eyes of the collector of these little books, but the Hurst Collection exceeds that one in number of rarities. But few of them will be found in Ford's Bibliography, and even some of those are the identical copies offered here. Full notes are appended to each item and collations given for future bibliographical purposes, and an attempt has been made to approximate to the dates of those publications where the imprint fails to specify any. Some of these dates are natur- ally only approximate, but every care has been taken not to un- duly stretch a point in this respect. The collection of works in the various languages and dialects of the Indians of North America is of such extent that a whole session has to be taken for the special purpose of dealing with them. On looking through the 325 numbers there will be found but few of the Indian languages that are not represented. Among those of the most interest are included the second edition of Eliot's Indian Bible, the rare Mohawk Prayer Book printed by William Bradford in New York in 1715, the edition of the same printed in Quebec in 1780, and Joseph Brant's translation published in 1787. Another item of special importance is the Mohawk Primer published in 1786, with the curious frontispiece representing the interior of a native school, the master of which is an Indian, with shaved head and scalp lock, having beside him the traditional birch broom as a veiled threat to the Indian children who are before him. The languages range from the Esquimaux and Foxes of the extreme north to the tribes of the extreme south. The languages of the remainder of the American continent are continued in the last session, where many items of similar interest will be found. Those relating to Mexico naturally occupy the principal place, where examples of early Mexi- can Presses are included. Here are to be met with books printed on the American continent before the Bay Psalm Book was ever thought of, when Dral-ce was making his first buc- caneering expedition, and before Raleigh made his first dismal attempt at colonization in Virginia. The writings of Molina, of Pedro de Arenas, of Martin de Leon, of Lorra Baquio, empha- size the importance of the collection, not merely for the student of the ancient languages of Mexico, but also for those interested in studying the history of the relations of the Spanish conquerors to their conquered native subjects. The books relating to the South American languages, though not so extensive in number, are of great variety, among them being Raymond Breton's Carib Dictionary and Catechism, Diego de Tapia's Confessonario Cumanagota, Figueira's Gram- matica da Lingua Geral, Fernandez's Relazione Istorica — an interesting book relating to the Indian tribes of Paraguay, and many others of equal value. The languages of the Pacific Islands and a few books in the language of the natives of the Philippines are also comprised in this section. E. T. Xtbrat^ of Bishop John jf. Ibutst. Hmerican HImanacs. 531 RHODE ISLAND (THE) Almanack for the Year 1741. By Poor Robin. i2mo, half morocco, pp. 16 (the leaves somewhat worn). Newport: The Widow Franklin, 1741. * Extremely rare. The almanac was no doubt founded on those of the English poet Herrick which were issued under the same pseudonym. Much of the matter is in poetry. The introduction is a most lugubrious poem of 32 lines, prophesying a famine of such intensity that parents would devour their children, and many other remarkable events to happen. Not in Sabin or the Brinley Collection. 532 POOR JOB. An Almanack for. .. 1754. By Job Shepherd, Philom. i2mo, pp. 24. Newport: James Franklin \i']^d^. * Rare. Besides a place in the library of the collector of early almanacs, these almanacs of Job Shepherd deserve a place among collections of early American Humor for the wit displayed in the poems. One short piece in this number would hardly be considered to-day as fit to appear in a popular publication. 533 POOR JOB'S . . . Almanack for. . . 1758.

A VOLUME CONTAINING " BabEL NO BeTHEL, BY H[eNRy] B[urTOn], 1629"; Alexander Layton's "Appeal to the Parliament (Sion's Plea against the Prelacy), Printed in the Year and moneth wherein Rochel was lost "[1628]; Samuel Mather's "Testimony FROM Scripture against Idolatry and Superstition," and "The XXV. Cases Concerning Things Indifferent in Religious Wor- ship," 1663. 8vo, old sheep. * A volume of extreme interest, being Ezra Stiles' own copy, with his autograph on the end paper at the front of the volume, with date 1760, and also on the title-page of the first pamphlet, and in addition at the end of the " Sion's Plea " is a lengthy note of 3 pages in his handwriting, giving an account of the author and the severe punish- ment he suffered for publishing the book. The first pamphlet is an attack on Charles I. and the prelacy, and the author was condemned for publishing it to stand in the pillory, have his ears slit, pay a fine of ;^5,ooo, and suffer imprisonment for life. Alexander Layton or Leighton met with the same fate for his bitter attack on the English prelacy, actually having his ears cut off, his nose slit, and enduring so long an imprisonment that it left him a wreck. (Two leaves in this are slightly damaged.) To add still further to its interest the volume was originally in the possession of Edward Taylor, a noted divine in New England, who graduated at Harvard in 1671, and became minister to Westfield in that year. Bound in with the end papers at the commencement of the volume is a long petition beginning: " Honoured Colonell,"no doubt Sir William Phipps, referring to the death of a kinsman at New York, at the house of William Morris (an early noted citizen of New York, and one of the found- ers of Trinity Church), to whose estate he laid claim, signed, written and dated by Edward Taylor at Westfield, November 19, 1692. Part of this petition has been folded and stitched in by the binder, but it is perfectly readable, and can be easily detached. One or two notes in his autograph occur in the text, and on the front end paper he has written a list of the pamphlets in the volume. Samuel Mather's testimony is the extremely rare edition printed by Samuel Green at Cambridge, Nevst England, in 1670, with Preface by Increase Mather, who caused it to be printed. Some doubt has been thrown on the date of publication and the printer of this by the absence of imprint, but in ascertaining the facts in such cases the evidence of those nearest the time, and of those best qualified to know, is of the greatest value. In relation to this book we have the testimony of Bartholomew Green, the son of the presumed printer, who stated to Thomas Prince, the famous New England divine, that it was printed at Cambridge with his father's type. It is difficult to conceive of anyone more competent to know the facts than one who worked in the same printing establishment, the son of the pro- prietor himself, and who must have been intimately acquainted with the whole busi- ness, and with Increase Mather and the others, whose writings they printed. Dr. Haven says it was printed at Cambridge about 1670, and Samuel A. Green includes it in his list of early American Imprints, fixing it at the same date, as does also Isaac Thomas. Many books have been accredited to certain printers on much less evidence than this. 82 •jCbe "Iburst Collection 580 MATHER (INCREASE).

G. may stand for William Goffe, the regicide, who wras an inti- mate friend of John Davenport, and who also when the spirit moved him did some exhorting. * Fine copy of the First Edition of Increase Mather's First Book. Some copies have two title-pages, one having an imprint merely " Printed in the 5'ear 1669"; the other describing it as "London, Printed for John Allen in Wentworth Street near Bell Lane, 1669." This one has the second title only. If this book were simply printed for Allen, who was the real printer ? John Allen was only a book- seller, who came to Boston in or about i6go, where he at first confined himself to sell- ing books as in London. From the signatures to the preliminary matter it is evident that the author wrote it in Boston in 1667, yet no copy is known with an American imprint, and no proof can be given of its being one, but there is a reasonable possi- bility. But two presses were in America at the period — that of Samuel Green, the other Marmaduke Johnson's, both at Cambridge, Mass. On comparing this book with known products of Green's press we see at once a striking resemblance, not merely in the type, but in the ornaments used by the printer for decoration, among the latter being the border of acorns frequently met with in the books issued by him. Further study by librarians having facilities for the study of early Massachusetts imprints can throw much light on this interesting problem. Increase Mather was probably acquainted with John Allen when he was in London, and could have had the book printed by Green with a title-page for the bookseller, forwarding the majority of the copies to that city. 581 MATHER (INCREASE).

[Collation: Title, i p.+To the Reader, 2 pp. + 25 pp.] Boston: Printed by John Foster, 1675. * The first book printed in Boston. John Foster, who established the First Press in Boston, commenced his publishing career with this sermon by Increase Mather, the preface of which is dated " Boston N.E., 15 of 2 Moneth 1675." Brinley had a copy that at the sale of his library brought $140, and no other copy seems to have come into the auction rooms since that date [1879], Considering the enormous rise that has taken place in the value of Americana since that sale, the price must be con- sidered trifling for a book of such excessive rarity as the First Book printed in Boston. The title of the book written with ink at the end of the preface, and the autograph of Joshua Thomas, 1762, on the first page, top margins cut close in some places, slightly injuring the pagination. 584 MATHER (INCREASE).

Henry Selyns (or Selins) was one of the most noted of the ministers of the Reformed Dutch Church, being pastor at Brooklyn in 1660, and also officiating at Peter Stuyves- ant's farm in the Bowery; in 1682 he was given the charge of the Church in New York. The records of the Reformed Dutch Church in his handwriting still exist, though most of his other writings are now lost. Corrections in ink occur throughout the volume, which, no doubt, were made by Increase Mather himself. ^4 Zbc iburst Collection 586 MATHER (INCREASE).

The author of the prefatory poem (an early speci- men of American poetry) was Nicholas Noyes, a distinguished Salem divine, and notorious for his activity in the witchcraft persecutions. The verses prefixed to Mather's Magnalia were also by him. The book is quaintly figurative, the use of the word " Fire " must have been a strain on the printer's fount.of type. The contents is preceded by a short introduction in the same quaint style as the matter of the book. " Perhaps our Meditations may lye like Red-hot Stones in the Reader's Fire. And now, to lay the Red-hot Stones together in an Heap, that the Reader may take out which of them he please, at any tiTne, to Touch his own Heart withal.

X 2O9 mm., BELIEVED TO BE THE TALLEST COPY IN EXISTENCE. TRUMBULL DESCRIBES THE COPY IN THE Brinley Catalogue, measuring 13^^ in. x sy in. as " Large Paper, and in such CONDITION AS OF SUPERLATIVE RARITY." UNFORTUNATELY THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE DOES NOT SUPPLY A WORD TO EXPRESS THAT WHICH IS OF A STILL HIGHER DEGREE THAN SUPERLATIVE, BUT IF THAT COPY WAS SUPERLATIVE HOW WOULD THIS ONE BE DESCRIBED? THE FORE EDGES OF A FEW LEAVES ARE ACTUALLY UNCUT. It is A QUESTION IF THE ERRATA WAS EVER ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED WITH THE BOOK. Very few copies have it. The probability is that Cotton Mather, ON receipt of those forwarded to America, had this errata specially printed and inserted in those in which it is pound, and that the copies WITHOUT it are THE EARLIEST ISSUED. ThE POINTS OF IMPORTANCE TO BE LOOKED FOR BY THE COLLECTOR ARE, THE ORIGINAL MAP, THE TWO LEAVES OF ADVER- TISEMENTS (many COPIES HAVE ONLY ONE), THE ERRATA (iF THE COLLECTOR PRIZES THE LATER ISSUED COPIES TO THE EARLIER), AND THE LARGENESS OF THE PAPER. A CAREFUL READING OF THIS DESCRIPTION WILL SHOW THAT IN THESE POINTS THIS COPY APPROACHES THE UNIQUE. The Menzies and Brayton Ives copy.

On an examination there will be found a few typographical errors (not mentioned in the errata), only some of which have been corrected in the two other copies. Apparently it has not been noticed by bibliographers that there have been more than one issue. A more careful study may show still farther differences. 94 Ube iburst Collection 638 MATHER (COTTON).

This Appendix is written as a continuation of the history given in the Magnalia Christi to which Mather refers. " The number of Indians in this land is not comparable to ■what it liias. The Wars — they perfidiously began upon the English — brought a Quick Desolation upon whole Nations of them. At Martha's Vineyard and Elisabeth Islands there are Ten Congregations, Two Englishmen and ten Indians are preachers to them. At present we can do nothing for those Bloody Salvages in the Eastern Parts, ■who have been taught by the French Priests, That the Virgin Mary ■was a French Lady, and that Our Great Saviour was a Frenchjnan, and that the English Murdered Him.

Those last two pages in this copy are occupied with a list of books recommended by Cotton Mather, and it has only 150 pages.

(Wooden boards, covered with leather; the binding damaged, and two or three leaves defective, others worn.) [Collation: 48 leaves, A to F, in eights.] * Very rare. Apparently only this copy and the Deane copy known. Ford mentions this copy, but not the latter, but is unaccountably wrong in his collation, giving only 32 leaves, signatures A to D. If this collation was made from the Deane copy it is evident that it must be imperfect, and that this copy is the only one known with the correct number of leaves. 689 NEW ENGLAND PRIMER ENLARGED. Boston: Printed by E. Draper for James White, . . Court Street, 1788. Wooden boards, leather back, recovered. [Collation: 40 leaves, A to E, in eights.] * Rare.

[Collation: 32 leaves, A to D, in eights.] Fine copy. * Extremely RARE. Not in Ford and the only known issue. Ford describes a copy with this imprint, in the Brown University Library, as having 48 leaves, and apparently supposed Bp. Hurst's copy to be identical. In this he was in error, as it is perfect in 32 leaves, showing that this and the following lot are both evidently un- known issues. Ford also facsimiles the titles, but this differs in the border. The printer, J. White, can certainly not be the James White of Court St. who published the editions of 1788 and 1798. Portrait of Washington precedes title. 693 Another copy, with the same imprint. Paper wrapper, want- ing the last wrapper. A few of the cuts badly colored. [Collation: A, 1 6 leaves, no signature B; C,iS leaves (lacking the last). (Stained.) * This is evidently a second issue of the same edition, some misprints being cor- rected. It has a few other alterations, and is also not as described by Ford, though the title-page agrees with the facsimile. Practically it corresponds page for page with the foregoing, but the back of the title contains some verses beginning "Children, to your Creator, God," with a woodcut of some houses, not in the preceding. Portrait of Wash- ington before title, with quotation from Proverbs, etc., on reverse; in the other copy the reverse has Song of Praise by Watts.

Mycall imprint. No. 694. Some variations occur, but the similarity of those pages in the square-faced type is very striking, and one or two misprints in this edition have been corrected in the other, showing a possibility of this being even earlier than the date suggested. 696 NEW ENGLAND PRIMER IMPROVED. Boston: Printed by Joseph Bumstead for David West, \']<)\. No covers. [Collation : A to D in eights (last leaf of signature D wanting).] * Rare.

[Collation: pp. i to 64, four leaves probably wanting after p. 64; title included in the pagination.] * Extremely rare. The only known copy of the earliest extant New York issue. This edition contains several variations from the usual issues, among them being "Description of a Good Boy," "Description of a Bad Boy," "The Good Girl," " The Naughty Girls," " Character of the Avangelists " (sic), etc. 698 ROYAL PRIMER ; or, an Easy and Pleasant Guide to the Art of Reading.

Boston: Printed by James Loring, n. d. [1798?] Wooden boards covered with paper, leather back. The leaves loose, but a fine copy. [Collation; 32 leaves, A to D, in eights. First and last leaf on inside of covers.] * Undoubtedly the first issue of this edition. The frontispiece is of two children in a wood, and the last picture is of a man and dog walking across a field, neither of which appears in the later issues with this imprint. 700 Another copy of the same issue. The binding defective, and consequently part of the first and last leaf lacking, the first three leaves a little damaged in the back margin. 701 NEW ENGLAND PRIMER IMPROVED. Boston : Printed by Manning and Loring, n. d. \circa 1803]. Wooden boards covered with paper, leather back. Slight tear in one leaf, and small hole in margin of another, otherwise good copy.

[Colla- tion : 32 leaves, A to D, in eights.] Fine copy. * This differs from lots No. 699-701 (with the same imprint), in the omission of the two cuts. No doubt, a somewhat later issue than the three preceding. I04 TLbc Iburst Collection 703 NEW ENGLAND PRIMER IMPROVED. Another copy. Wooden boards covered with paper, leather back.

[Collation: 40 leaves, A to E, in eights.] * Rare. The only known copy. Not in Ford. This edition seems to be almost identical with the edition printed for James White by E. Draper in 1788, the only difference in the typography being in the two-line descriptions to the cuts of animals, otherwise it could easily be mistaken for the same issue. 709 NEW ENGLAND PRIMER. New-England: Printed for the pur- chaser, n. d. Wooden boards, covered with paper, leather back. Frontispiece represents a woman and child walking in front of a house and fenced-in garden. [Collation : 32 leaves, A to D, in eights. J * On the back of the frontispiece is written, " Hannah Watts Her Book.'' A note is inserted, stating that the name of Hannah Watts occurs in the records of the North Church, Salem, and that she was baptized in 1737. We would ourselves hesitate to put any such early date on this edition, but for an approximation to it see lot No. 711 following. There is a curious mix-up in the arrangement of the illustrated alphabet. 710 Another copy of the same issue. Wooden boards, covered with paper, leather back (two or three leaves have slight tears in them). 711 The same edition as the two preceding, but apparently a little later issue; one or two typographical errors being corrected. (No covers and imperfect, wanting the whole of signature A, ex- cepting the last leaf, and also lacking the last leaf of signature D.) * This copy is interesting as having a faded inscription, which, however, can be partly read as ^' Lucy {Silvester f) Leicester?

An odd picture in the illustrated alphabet in this and the three following editions is the cut illustrating " The Idle Fool is whipt at school" where the boy is shown kneeling by a chair, with scanty raiment, and being birched in the traditionary manner of the olden time. This cut is apparently in no other editions than those with Thomas imprint. io6 -Jibe Iburst Collection 720 NEW ENGLAND PRIMER. Another copy.

Coming with his parents as a child to Mexico in 1523, he learnt the native language at a very early age, and served as interpreter to the earliest Francis- cans in their offices to the Mexicans, accompanying them in their visits to the native dwellings and towns.

THE third part of the library of the late Bishop Hurst com- prised in this catalogue completes that portion devoted particularly to American History and Literature. While the second part included the special collections, like the New England Primers, the writings of the Mathers, and the American Languages, this section takes in all the remaining books relating directly or indirectly to America. A glance through the pages shows the interest and variety of the books described. First Editions of Nathaniel Hawthorne, Edgar Allan Poe, John G. Whittier, Henry W. Longfellow, Oliver Wendell Holmes and others — the best in the literature of our country — appeal specially to the collector of this class of books. Quite an extensive collection of the writings of Eugene Field will be found, and of other authors, many choice and rare examples. For those to whom the history and progress of America have a greater attraction, a much larger choice is given. The field here is so extensive that a mere mention of some of the titles is all that is possible. Several items of great rarity relate to the Swedish settlements on the Delaware, among them being the original editions of Acrelius and Campanius, the rare pamphlet by Biorck, and the two excessively rare tracts by Usselinx which led to the founding of the colony. The other books include among them Smith's Virginia, 1627; Burk's Virginia, 4 vols; New England's First Fruits, 1643, the first that was pub- lished of those rare tracts known as the Eliot Indian Tracts; Monarde's Joyfull Newes out of the Newe Founde Worlde ; an early edition of Peter Martyr Anghiera, which once belonged to the poet Southey, adding an associative value to the historic importance of the book ; Lawson's Carolina, 1 709 ; several rare early books relating to the founding of Georgia ; an extensive collection of German imprints from Sower's and the Ephrata Presses ; Ignatius Davis' view of the Genesee Country, with a MS. itinerary by the author ; a complete set of the Pennsylvania Magazine, published by Robert Aitken and edited by Thomas Paine, which, as all collectors know, is of the utmost rarity in complete form ; some early imprints by William Bradford, in- cluding one printed in New York in 1 700 ; Wesley's Sunday Ser- vice for the Methodists in North America, of which, as is pointed out in the description, there is a remarkable difference in the issues; the extremely rare Proposed Prayer Book; etc., etc. The mention of only a few items like the above cannot fail to arouse in the mind of the student of American history the thought of the value to historical research of collectors like the late Bishop Hurst, who indefatigably delved through the dusty piles of the bookstores of both continents. Many an unconsid- ered pamphlet has thrown a brilliant light on some cloudy por- tion of history, and many items in the Hurst Collection can well be included in this category. E. T.

This valuable history of the New World was founded on the original documents of Columbus, which Anghiera in his official position on the Council of the Indies had access to. The author was personally acquainted with both Columbus and Vespuccius, thus lending additional authority to his narrative. The " De Babylonica" gives an account of his visit to Egypt in 1502, with description of the Pyramids, etc. Damian de Goes was a noted Portuguese historiographer. The history of Peter Martyr Angleriuswas the first history of the newly discovered world, and is still a source of information. i486 APIANUS (PETRUS).

I am convinced I could not spend ray time better than in itinerating to preach the Gospel and to collect materials which may assist the future historian."

The poetical dedication by the author is a very amusing piece of composition in faulty English; the English preface, by Andrew Hessell, is much better written.

Evangeline is the scarcest of the works of Longfellow, and is rapidly increasing in value and in rarity, as the few copies in existence get locked up in the libraries of collectors; some day it may be as difficult to obtain as Whittier's Moll Pitcher or Poe's Tamerlane. This copy is a presentation copy from Longfellow, with his inscription inside and date 1 848. bound in also is a cabinet photograph of the author, with HIS AUTOGRAPH AND DATE 1880.

Written in pencil, while in Cincinnati, and addressed to the proprietor of the " Neill House," Columbus: " I am requested by Mr. Charles Dickens to inform you that he is coming to Columbus ... on Thursday — and that he proposes resting that day and night . . . preparatory to going on to Sandusky on Friday morning. He will be greatly obliged ... if you will have the goodness to prepare comfortable quarters for him . . . and to say (in case any inquiries should be made on the subject) that he will not be able to receive any visitors in Columbus, as his short stay is one of rest, of which both him- self and Mrs. Dickens stand in need, as they have for some weeks been constantly trav- elling. The accommodations we shall require, are a comfortable private parlor and bedroom adjoining — or as near to it as convenient — another sleeping chamber for my- self — and another for Mrs. Dickens' maid." In this connection, it is interesting to note a short quotation from Dickens' "American Notes" — "excellent apartments in a very large unfinished hotel called the Neill House, which were richly fitted with the polished wood of the black walnut, and opened on a handsome portico and stone verandah, like rooms in some Italian mansion ..." 2243 SLAVERY BROADSIDE.

The first book printed in German type IN America, and the first book from the press of Christopher Sauer, of Germantown. Zionitscher. Weyrauchs-Hiigel Oder Myrrhen Berg, etc. Thick i6mo, old calf. Germantown: Chris- to/h Sauer, 1739. * The Weyrauchs-Hiigel was the first book printed in German type in America, and the first book from the press of Sower. In a rather curious way it led to the estab- lishment of the Ephrata Press. Conrad Beissel wrote many of the hymns, and Sower 284 tibe iburst Collection accused him of alluding to himself in the 37th verse of the 400th hymn, which, literally translated, is: " Look! look! look! Look! look upon the man; He is heard by God. He is our Lord and Christ," whereupon Beissel replied that he was a fool. This enraged Sower, whoprinted a slanderous pamphlet about Beissel, and the result of the widening breach was a new press at Ephrata. Christina Hoehn wrote the hymns on pp. 456 and 465. The headings are fantastic in the extreme. As the edition was small and the book in constant use for devotional purposes, nearly all of the few known copies are imperfect. The present copy lacks pp. 291-302 and pp. 723-734. There is an autograph of Peter Sauer, 1817, on the fly-leaf. 2262 SOWER IMPRINT. Biblia, das ist die Heilige Schrift.

At the time this was written the first steps were being taken by both the Dutch and Spanish authori- ties to conclude peace. As the title indicates, Usselinx was regarding the negotiations with the eye of the merchant, bearing constantly in mind the great project of a Dutch West India Company, in which he had then been for some years endeavoring to in- terest the merchants of Holland. This pamphlet was written to urge the Dutch negotiators to include the southern provinces in the favored terms they expected to get for themselves. Usselinx points out the value to the whole of Holland in such a case, of the City of Antwerp, should it get favored terms without restrictions of trade. 292 XTbe Iburst Collection 2344 USSELINX (WILLEM).

Willem Usselinx, the most active promoter of the Dutch West India Company, getting tired of the dilatoriness of the Dutch Merchants and Staats-General, carried his project to Gustavus Adolphus. That famous soldier seized eagerly on the idea, and granted Usselinx this charter for a company. This was the foundation of the Swedish settlements on the Delaware; for though the project was not immediately carried through, it led eventually to the expedition and settlement by Peter Minuit. It is doubtful if more than one or two copies of this original Swedish issue exists and 7tot one we believe in America. Laid in is an autograph letter by Wilberforce Eames of the Lenox Library referring to its extreme scarcity. 2345 USSELINX (WILLEM).

The original Swedish edition, of the greatest rarity, PUBLISHED FROM UsSELINx's DuTCH MS. AND ONE YEAR BEFORE THE DUTCH EDITION. This is Usselinx's explanatory pamphlet on the South Company, pointing out equally to the Swedes, Dutch and Germans the advantages to be gained from the Patent granted by Gustavus Adolphus. An important part is that in which he describes the country on the Delaware, its suitability for a colony, its fertility, etc. This pamphlet was issued but a short time after the granting of the Patent, being dated in the address to the reader on the back of the title 2 July, 1626, while the Patent was signed by Gustavus 14 June, 1626, barely three weeks before. Laid in is also a letter by Wilberforce Eames pointing out its great rarity, and that only four other copies are known. Rightly this and the preceding pamphlet may be CALLED THE CAUSE OF THE FIRST SWEDISH SETTLEMENT IN AMERICA. [See illus- tration.] 2346 If AN REES (O.)

(Wanting the first leaf of the Order for Morning Prayer, and a leaf of the Table of Lessons, and a name written on the back of the title.) London: Printed in the YEAR MDCCLXXXIV. * It is apparently unknown to bibliographers that there were two distinct issues of the first edition. This is an example of the first ISSUE, and both the first issue and the second, which follows in the next lot, are of extreme rarity. The history of this edition of the first American Methodist Ritual is somewhat obscure. Wesley apparently prepared and had printed some copies of the book before he had fully decided what course to pursue as to the appointment of Bishops for America. In September, 1784, he determined to send Dr. Coke and others to Ube "(burst Collection 299 America, and recommended this service to them and to the American Methodists. For this purpose he had a short preface of one p^ge printed and inserted in some copies, but one or two must evident;ly have been sent over before Dr. Colce left England, of which this is one. The alterations that were made in the second edition are of much interest. In the Morning Prayers that for the Supreme Rulers reads in the first: " We beseech thee ... to behold the Supreme Rulers of these United States, and so replenish," etc. ; in the second edition this is changed to " the Rulers of these United States, the Congress, the General Assemblies, the Governors, and the Councils of States; and so replenish," etc. The Articles of Religion that numbered XXIII. in the second edition, and declaring that "The Congress," etc., are the Rulers of the United States, is in the first edition entirely omitted. The Articles number 24 instead of 25. 2404 The second issue of the First Edition, having bound WITH it the "minutes OF CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN THE ReV. Thomas Coke, the Rev. Francis Asbury and others — compos- ing A form of discipline for — THE Methodist Episcopal Church IN America." Printed in Philadelphia in 1785; also con- taining AT the end " Psalms and Hymns'for the Lord's Day, BY John and Charles Wesley, printed in London in 1784." A copy of Wesley's letter to Coke and Asbury is inserted at the front, which was Also printed in Phila. about the same time. i2mo, in the original binding but much worn (the pages of the Psalms from 95 to the end are wanting, and Wesley's preface has been supplied in writing). London: Printed in the Year MDCCLXXXIV. * This second issue of the first edition has several material alterations. The prin- cipal of these is in the Service for the Baptism of Infants, where, after the minister is instructed to dip his hand in the water and say, " I baptize," etc., follows instruc- tions to make the sign of the cross on the child's forehead. This is entirely left out in the first issue and in the second and later editions. Also, in the Communion Service directions are given as to the minister breaking the bread, etc., which are omitted in the first issue, and only partly restored in the second edition. Several other alterations occur which make an interesting study of these two issues of the first edition. The Discipline bound herewith is the first American publication of this. 2405 The Second Edition of the same, having bound with it "a collection of Psalms and Hymns for the Lord's Day, by John and Charles Wesley." i2mo, bound in half red morocco.

Tall copy measuring 10^ in. by 8^^ in. Wants binding. W. Caxton, 1482. * Very rare. The increasing number of rich collectors, who have apparently been determined to get the productions of the presses of the earliest printers, has resulted in a surprising advance in the value of Caxtons. Tall copies, even when imperfect, have within only a very recent time been fetching prices that a few years ago it was thought ridiculous to give for complete copies. But when it is considered that these books are the cornerstones of a choice collection, and that without them no gathering together of later publications can in any way be considered worthy of the name of a collection, there is seen to be an adequate reason for the increased values. These are indispensable, and must be had, and there can be no reasonable limit to their advance. Very few perfect copies of Caxton 's Polycronycon are known, and a copy with as many leaves as the present is very rare, especially when with good margins. This copy is also evidently one of the earliest struck off by Caxton, as folio 227 is printed CCVII and is wrongly corrected to CCXXXIII in the other copies which follow. 354 ^be Iburst Collectton ENGLISH PRESSES— CotitiKued. 2838 CAXTON (WILLIAM).

Bound in old half russia. Bookplate of Bateman. [Southwark: Peter Treveris, 1521.] * Rare. This quaint book, which might fitly be called the first English Encyclo- paedia — containing history, gardening receipts, cooking receipts, legal forms, list of mar- vellous relics in various churches, duties on goods, etc. — is famous for the first appear- ance in print of the celebrated old English ballad known as " The Nut Browne Mayde," many times since reprinted, revised (and spoiled). The first edition, which is extremely rare, is supposed to have been printed at Antwerp by Adrian van Berghen, but this second edition continues the historical material to the date of publication. A contemporary owner, Robert Ayre, and a later one, John Hill, 1611, have handed their names to posterity in several places on the margins, and a binder has errone- ously lettered it on the back as having been printed by Pynson in 15 10.

The book is a series of verses on the 370 tlbe Iburst Collection INCVNABVl^ A— Continued. Christian virtues and beliefs, and this edition has a commentary by the famous Chan- cellor John Gerson. The name of the printer — John Fabri — has given rise to much discussion, desperate attempts having been made to identify him with the first Danish printer. This Danish printer's name is given as John Snell. In 1495 a book was printed in Stockholm, and the printer is given as Johann Fabri. This Fabri, it is said, is only the Latin form of the word Smith; and as Snell means nearly the same, therefore they are one and the same person. Proctor also calls the printer of this book Johann Schmidt. Jean Faure (with slight variations of the spelling), a German, was printer and bookseller at Lyons at this period, and there can be very little doubt that Fabri is merely the Latin form of the same name, and there is no certain evidence to believe that his real name was Schmidt. The device on the title-page has led many into the error of imagining the book was printed by John Fust, and the original owner of the book, who had it so handsomely bound, was evidently of the same opinion, for it is lettered on the back " Floretus Virtutum — Mogun — Joh.

The text printed with the same type as the rare Fust and Schoffer Bible of 1462. First edition of the Decretals with a date. On the verso of the last folio occur several short Latin verses in praise of the in- vention of printing and of books. The fifth is the most important, being the lines which speak of those two Johns, both of Mainz, first producers of books, with whom came Peter shortly after, superior to them; also mentioning Master Francis the com- positor, and " Myself who cleared the text of errors.'' The writer of these lines was John Brunner, author of a Latin grammar which Schoffer printed in 1468, and who was employed by the printer as proofreader. The two Johns are, of course, John Gutenberg and John Fust, the Peter who surpassed them both being Peter Schoffer, the printer of this book. 3001 PETER SCHOFFER. Turrecremata (Johan de).

The verses of the Psalms that pre- cede each chapter of the Commentary are printed in the small type used in the Psalters of 1457 and 1459. Schoffer printed two editions of this, of which this is the earliest and finest. The centre sheet of many of the signatures is strengthened with a strip from an old manuscript — a practice adopted by the earliest binders — and the probabil- ity is that the binding may be the original as issued by Schoffer himself. 3002 Folio I commences: — Incipit Dyalogus qui vocatur Scrutinium scriptuaru. copositus p Reverendu patre dominum Paulii de Sancta maria. 217 folios, printed in Gothic letter, single column of 39 lines, no catchwords, pagination or signatures.

The most interesting part of the volume is probably the history of the deeds of Andrea Braccio of Mentone, of the Bracchi family, and of the struggles against Sforza and the Lords of Rimini, forming a valuable contribution to the history of Italy under the Despots.

Splendid impression of the types, and rubricated throughout. Some of the original MS. signatures are apparent at the margin, showing that the quires were mostly quinions, with a few quaternions. Of interest, also, on account of the colophon containing both the name of Ulrich Zel and the date. Many of the books printed by him contain neither, and very few, perhaps at the utmost about half a dozen, have his name as printer. Robertus Caracciolus was one of the Order of Minor Friars, and died about 20 years after the publication of this book. He was Bishop of Aquino in 1471, noted for his great eloquence, and for the humor (or, rather, what would to-day be characterized as burlesque) in which he attacked the laxity of morals and extravagance of living of the higher prelates. Many editions were printed of his sermons. 38o ubc Iburst Collection INCUN ti.BVL A— CoKhniied. 3012 ULRICH Z,E.h. Leonardus DE Utino. Folio i commences: — In festo ascesionis domini Sermo.

[Cologne: Ulrich Zell'\ 1473 * Exceedingly rare. This is only the second part, but the two parts are very rarely met with together. The real date, 1473, has been carefully erased, a state in which copies are sometimes found, leading to much confusion in the minds of amateur bibliographers, the only date then appearing in the colophon being that of 1446, which the amateur carefully explains away by imagining it was a misprint for 1464. The original binder of this copy had adopted that latter date, but some later owner has neatly changed it again into 1446. Stamp of the Royal Library at The Hague on folio 1. A choice specimen of early typography and of U Irich Zell's press. It is believed by many authorities that William Caxton about this time was in Cologne and obtained some of his first practical ideas on printing from Ulrich Zell.

The most interesting part of this volume is the Universal Chronology of Johan Clarion. Clarion studied under Melanchthon, becoming later a Professor of Mathematics in Germany. He wrote a Universal Chronology, which he submitted to Melanchthon for approval, but the latter was so dissatisfied with it that he rewrote it and published it himself under the name of Jean Clarion. 3099 MELANCHTHON (PHILIP).

These notes are numerous, and where some of the text has been torn away Melanchthon has supplied the deficient lines in his autograph. The copy is a little imperfect, and shows signs of much use, but is possibly the result of much handling by the great Reformer himself. 398 tlbe ibursr CoUectton 3159 MERCURIUS POLITICUS, comprising the sum of Foreign Intelligence, with the affairs now on foot in the three nations of England, Scotland and Ireland.

London, 1664. * The copy, used by the poet Robert Southey in making his English edi- tion, PUBLISHED in 1807. INTERLEAVED WITH 473 LEAVES OP WRITING PAPER, ON WHICH SOUTHEY has WRITTEN HIS CORRECTIONS AND INTERPOLATIONS. MANY COR- RECTIONS AND DIRECTIONS TO THE PRINTER ARE ALSO WRITTEN ON THE MARGINS OF 404 tCbe Iburst Collection THE TEXT AND THE EXCISIONS POINTED OUT. OnE LEAF OF THE LETTERPRESS IS MISSING, PROBABLY REMOVED BY SOUTHEY HIMSELF, TO BE OMITTED FROM HIS OWN VERSION. Inserted is a MS. note stating that this copy was a gift from John Payne Collier. Palmerin of England was written by Don Luis de Hertado, and is ranked as one of tlie best of the Romances of Chivalry of the type of Amadis de Gaul. When Cer- vantes described the cure burning the romances of Don Quixote he expressly excepts Palmerin of England, declaring that it shall be put among the relics of antiquity for the excellence of its composition and adventures. Many English authors have praised it, and Keats classed it among his favorite books. The translator, A. M. [Anthony Munday], has been somewhat undeservedly neg- lected as an early English writer, this neglect being founded on the fact of his lesser and literary hack work being the only ones practically obtainable. He died in 1663, but his writings date from the later years of the i6th Century. Kemp, in his " Nine Dales Wonders," refers to him as a Ballad Writer, and other contemporaries note his dramatic works. The play of " Sir John Oldcastle," once attributed to Shakespeare, and afterwards to Thomas Heywood, was partly written by him. It also appears, from statements made in his lifetime, that at some period in his career he had acted on the English Stage, and from this practical experience his dramatic works, if now extant, would be of great interest and value. 3219 PAMPHLETS.

About 150 pages of the volume comprises a treatise on the Divine Ideas, not in Coleridge's autograph, but possibly of his own composition, and transcribed or written at his dictation, with some notes written in places by the poet and philosopher, one of which is a direction to the printer, showing that it was intended for publication.

Varying in a marked manner from the first printed edition that prima facie v/ou\d. point to this being the original draft of the poem. Written on both sides of 5 quarto leaves, the first page being numbered 9 and the last 20, with pages 11-12 lacking. Some later ink scribbles, of little importance, written here and there. The numbering of the cantos arranged differently from the printed version. * Collating it with the first printed edition, the manuscript commences with the 7th line of Canto IV. , and continues to the 22d line of Canto V. The following dififer- ences may be noted: First Printed Edition reads: Canto IV., line 9, " the mix'd tone " " v., " 13, " dare attempt " " " " 14, " The breathing beauty ' " " " 15, " my impassioned " The manuscript then commences again with the first line of Canto VIII. variations being as follows: First Printed Edition reads; Canto VIII, Manuscript reads: ' ' and the tone " " now attempt" ' ' The more than beauty ' '* this impassioned" Manuscript reads: the Line 2 7: 8 9 10 II 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19; 20; 21 22 23: ' Even such as from the accursed time " ' My frenzy to her bosom taught; We still were young: no purer thought Dwelt in a seraph's breast than thine; For passionate love is still divine ; I loved her as an angel might With ray of the all living light Which blazes upon Edis' shrine. It is not surely sin to name, With such as mine — that mystic flame, I had no being but in thee! The world with all its train of bright And happy beauty (for to me All was an undefined delight), The world — its joy — its share of pain Which I felt not — its bodied forms Of varied being, which contain The bodiless spirits of the storms." " Such as I taught her from the time" " There were no holier thoughts than thine I lov'd thee as an angel might With ray of the all living light Which blazes upon Edis' shrine — It is not surely sin to name With such as mine that mystic flame; I had no being but in thee — The world, with all its train of bright And happy beauty (for to me All was an undefin'd delight) , The world, its joy — its share of pain Unheeded then — its bodied forms Of varied being which contain The bodiless spirits of the storms." [See illustration.] 434 XEbe Iburst Collection The differences of construction are in these lines very marlced, some of the expres- sions, as for instance, " For passionate love is still divine" being entirely wanting in> the manuscript. Other equally noteworthy differences occur throughout, another marked variation- being after the 22d line of Canto XI., where the manuscript, though written as con- tinuous — save for the paragraph breaks — jumps to the first line of Canto XV., the CONCLUSION OF THE XIXH AND THE WHOLE OF XII., XIII., XIV., BEING ENTIRELY OMITTED IN THIS FIRST DRAFT. The manuscript ends at the 2oth line of Canto XV. It is among the possibilities that the author ended with the canto completed here, where Tamerlane, after abandon- ing Ada in order to realize his ambitious hopes, boasts of the glory of Samarcand, " queen of the earth," ending with the line "'Nothing have I with human hearts," the necessary bitter reflection on his deathbed, and completing the idea. The remaining two cantos may have been a later thought and written for the printed edition. 3479 POE (EDGAR ALLAN). Manuscript entirely in his auto- graph OF HIS FUGITIVE POEM " ThE ViSIT OF THE DEAD." * Written on two pages of the same paper as the preceding. Published in the First Printed Edition of Tamerlane as one of the Fugitive Pieces, with the title given above. The manuscript, however, bears the title " The Spirits of the Dead." Apparently also the first draft. The variations are as follow : First Printed Edition: Manuscript reads: Line 2, ' 'Alone of all on earth — unknown " " Mid dark thoughts of the grey tombstone " " 3, "The cause — but none are near to pry " " Not one of all the crowd to pry " " 5, " that solitude " " thy solitude " " 13, " their thrones in the dark heaven " " their high thrones in the Heaven " " 16, " To thy withering heart shall seem " " To thy weariness shall seem " " 20, " In the morning hght afar " ' ' With the dew-drop files afar " " 21, " Will fly thee — and vanish " " Now are thoughts thou cans't not banish" " 22, " But its thought thou cans't not banish" " Now are visions ne'er to vanish " " 23, "the breath of God will be still" "From thy spirit shall they pass " " 24, " And the mist upon the hill " "No more, like dew-drop from the grass " " 25, "By that summer breeze unbroken'' " The breeze — the breath of God — is still" " 26, " Shall charm thee as a token " " And the mist upon the hill " " 27, "And a symbol which shall be" " Shadowy — shadowy, yet unbroken " 28, " Secrecy in thee." " Is a symbol and a token " (Printed version ends here.) "(How it hangs upon the trees) " " A mystery of mysteries." The differences are here very remarkable, the manuscript containing two lines more than the printed edition, and the construction being much altered in the latter part. 3480 Manuscript, entirely in his Autograph, of two of his Fugitive Poems, " Dreams" and "The Lake." * This manuscript, which is written on four pages of the same paper as the preceding, is also apparently the first draft of the two poems. They were printed along with Tamerlane in the first edition of 1827. Line lO, •* II, " 20, " 21, Ubc Iburst Collection 435 The variations from the printed version of "Dreams" may be briefly summarized as follows : First Printed Edition : Manuscript reads : Line 5, "the cold reality " " the dull reality '■ " 6, " whose heart must be " " whose heart shall be " " 7, " still, upon the lovely earth '' " ever, on the chilly earth " " 14, "in dreams of living light" "in dreamy fields of light" "15, "And loveliness — have left my "And left unheedingly my very heart" very heart " In line 27 of the original printed edition, modern editors have suggested that the word "but" has by some accident been omitted ; in this manuscript it is clearly written, thus confirming the surmise. In " The Lake " there are the following variations : " In its stilly melody" " In a stilly melody" " My infant spirit would awake " " My boyish spirit would awake" " To his dark imagining " " To his lone imagining" ' ' Whose wildering thought could ' ' Whose solitary soul could make " even make " 3481 POE (EDGAR ALLAN). Manuscript, entirely in his Auto- graph, OF HIS POEMS "To THE RiVER " AND " To ." * The latter of these appeared in the first edition of Tamerlane as the first of the Fugitive Pieces with simply the heading " To ." This manscript has the additional heading "/« an Album." Commencing with " / saw thee on the bridal day" the manuscript and printed version correspond, with the exception that the second verse is entirely omitted. That this was an oversight by the author is clear, as Poe has written in the margin "^linesomitted see lastpage "winch last page is, however, not here. The other piece was printed in a later volume of poems, and in this manuscript has likewise the additional heading "In an Album." The differences are as follow : Printed Edition : Manuscript reads : Line 2, "Of crystal wandering water " " Of labyrinth-like water " " 8, Is printed without brackets. Is written within brackets. " 10, " Her worshipper resembles " " My pretty self resembles " " II, "his heart" " my heart " " 12, " Her image deeply lies" " Her image lightly lies" " 13, " His heart" " The heart" " 14, " Of her soul searching eyes" " The scrutiny of her eyes " Written on 2 pages of the same paper as the preceding, and also, no doubt, the first draft. 2482 The Original Memoranda for the Prospectus of his " Living Writers of America," entirely in his Autograph. Writ- ten on four pages of folio paper, and on four pages of smaller size, with many alterations and erasures by the poet. * The title as written by him on the first page is as follows: " The Living Writers of America. Some Honest Opinions about their Literary Merits, with Occasional 43 6 Z\}c Iburst Collection Words of Personality. By Edgar A. Poe. With Notices of the Author by James Russell Lowell & P. P. Cooke." A most interesting manuscript, much of it personal and about his literary work. He commences by referring to Godey's Lady's Book, and that he (the publisher ?) was badgered into giving it up. Then follows a reference to English's attack, and pro- ceeds, " Success induced me to extend the plan . . . discard petty animosities — it will be seen that where through petulance or neglect, or underestimate of the impression the papers were to make, I have done injustice, I have not scrupled to repair the wrong, even at the expense of consistency . . . Political sectional animosities . . . result a depre- ciation of Southern and Western talent, which upon the whole is greater, m.ore vivid, fresher, than that of the North, less conventional, less conservative — want of centralisa- tion gives birth to a peculiar cliquism whose separate penchants render it nearly impos- sible to get at the truth — Instance the Hu7nanity clique — to which belong Emerson, Lowell, Hawthorne, Godwin, Fuller, Mrs. Child, Whittier — and who judge all litera- ture in accordance with its hobby. ^^ The whole manuscript is full of notes to the same effect on the prominent literary men of the time, with trenchant criticisms. 3483 POE (EDGAR ALLAN). A Manuscript of two leaves, of an early date, giving a copy of Poe's Dreams and of two other poems, the first evidently copied from the m'anuscript above. A note written on it states that they are unpublished poems of Poe from the manuscript. 3484 Eureka: a ProsePoem. Fine copy in the original cloth. New York, 1848. * Poe's own copy, marked throughout with pencilled additions and alterations. At one time in the possession of Rufus W. Griswold, who has written his name and the remark that it is Poe's private copy on the first end-paper. " One of the most noteworthy additions that Poe has made is contained in a note on the last leaf, which reads as follows : ' Note. — The pain of the consideration that we shall lose our individual identity, ceases at once when we further reflect that the process, as above described, is, neither more nor less than that of the absorption by each individual intelligence, of all other intelligences (that is, of the Universe) into its oiim.

(Somewhat worn at the folds and a few words miss- ing ) To Richard Henry Lee. Important letter, written while Washington was in command of the troops besieging Boston. * " As we have now nearly completed our lines of defence, we have nothing more in my opinion to fear from the Enemy, providing we can keep our men to their duty and make them watchful and vigilant; but it is among the most difficult tasks I ever under- took in my life to induce the people to believe that there is or can be danger till the Bay~ onet is pushed at their breasts; not that it proceeds from any uncommon prowess, but rather from an unaccountable kind of stupidity in the lower class of these people, which believe me prevails but too generally among the officers of the Massachusetts part of the Army, who are nearly of the same kidney with the privates.^' ' ' There is no such thing as getting officers of this stamp to exert themselves in carry- ing orders into execution — -to curry favour with the m.en {by whovi they ivere chosen, and on whose smiles possibly they may think they may again rely) seems to be one of the prin- cipal objects of their attention,*^ Washington then proceeds to object to the principle of the Massachusetts govern- ment appointing theofificers, stating that he has " made apretty good stand" against the class of officers they have sent. Further on he points out the difficulties in occupying and holding " Point Alderton," stating that it would be easy for General Gage to attack 442 Ube Iburst CoUectton it with his whole force, and calls Lee's attention to the " alarming " fact that the whole army has only 184 barrels of powder, and that it would not be prudent for him to take any measures which would bring on an engagement and consume the small quantity of ammunition. Washington also states that it is impossible for him to state his motives to every one, although it places him in a very unfavorable light with those who find little done and expect much. " Last Saturday night," he goes on, " we took pos- session of a spot within poiht blank shot of the enemy on Charlestown neck, worked incessantly the whole night with 1200 men, and threw up an intrenchment such as to bid defiance to their cannon." Some other details of the proceedings of the siege are also contained in the letter. The first two pages of this important letter deal principally with Washington's dissatisfaction with the Massachusetts troops. Later, however, the General apologized handsomely, writing in another letter, " T/ie deficiency of numbers^ discipline, and stores, can only lead to one conclusion, that their spirit has exceeded their strength." 3524 WASHINGTON (GEORGE). Autograph Letter Signed. 7 pp. folio. New York, Aug. 19, 1776. To Lund Washington, the Gen- eral's agent, and manager of his estates. Important letter, written only a few days before the Battle of Long Island. ' ' Very unexpectedly to me another revolving Monday is arrived before an attack upon this Ciiy^ or a movernent of the enemy — the reason of this is incomprehensible to me. True it is {from some late informations") they expect another arrival of about j, 000 Hessians; but then they have been stronger than the army under my Command; which with men^ I expect, gain strength faster than theirs, as the Militia are beginning to come in fast, and have already augmented our numbers in this City and the Posts round about to about 2^,000 men. ' ' There is something exceedingly misierious in the conduct of the Enemy. Lord Howe takes pains to throw out, upon every occasion that he is the Messenger of Peace — that he wants to accomodate matters — nay, has Insinuated that he thinks himself authorized to do it upon the terms mentioned in the last Petition to the King of G. Britain. But has the Nation got to that, that the King or his Ministers will openly dispense with Acts of Parliament — and if they durst attempt it, how is it to be accounted for that after running the Nation to some Millions of Pounds Sterls. to hire and Transport Foreigners, and before a blow is struck, they are ivilling to give the terms proposed by Congress . . . I say how is this to be accounted for but from their having received some disagreeable advices from Europe . . . We are now passed the Middle of A ugust, and they are in possession of an Island only, which it never was in our power, or Intention to dispute their landing on." Washington then narrates that the two ships (the Phoenix and another), which went up the river, narrowly escaped destruction by fire-ships, and have returned. The rest of the letter is devoted to detailed instructions about the management of his estate, planting of trees, etc. He considers that Lund would have a good opportunity to send off his flour, now that Lord Dunmore and his squadron have returned to Staten Island. Cracked in the folds, but otherwise in good condition. Zbc Iburst Collection 443 3525 WASHINGTON (GEORGE). Autograph Letter Signed, lo pp. folio, Head-quarters, Middlebrook, May 5, 1779, to Benjamin Har- rison, signer of the Declaration and Member of the Board of War. In fine condition, except that the letter has cracked at the folds and been neatly repaired. * The letter commences by referring to some statements in a previous letter recom- mending certain measures, and reiterates their necessity, and that if longer delayed " I shall not scruple to add that our affairs are irretrievably lost." He also predicts that the result will be " the fate of our paper money and with it a general crash of all things." Washington then proceeds: ' ' The measures of Ministry are taken, and the whole strength and resources of the Kingdom will be exerted against it in this campaign; while we have been slumbering and sleeping, or disputing upon trifles contenting ourselves with laughing at the im- potence of Great Britain . . . Accts. from London to the gth. of March, have fixed me in the opinion that G. Britain will strain every nerve to distress us this campaign, but where or in ivhat m.anner her principal forces will be employed I cannot determine . . . My own opinion of the matter is that, they will keep a respectable force at {New York), and push their operations vigorously to the Southward, where we are most vulnerable, and least able to afford succour . . . She may, cerctimstanced as we are, give a very unfavourable turn to that pleasing slumber, we have been in for the last eight months. . . . From- present appearances I have not the smallest doubt but that we shall be hard pushed in every quarter. This campaign will be the grand and if unsuccessful, more than probable the last struggle of Great Britain . . . They are raising all the Indians from. North to South which their arts and money can procure, and a powejful diver- sion they will make in this quarter with the aid they expect from Canada. " Washington then criticises the methods of calling out the Militia, condemning it, and proposes another scheme. He also writes about the treatment of the British prisoners, and then returns again to the operations and conduct of the war. "/ view General Philips in the light of a dangerous man — in his march to Charlotte- ville he was guilty of a very grave breach of military Judgment, and of a procedure highly criminal; for instead of pursuing the route pointed out to him he went — " (Washington then describes the route). The General then gives warning that deserters or prisoners must not be trusted, giving some interesting facts, and proceeds to relate the latest news of the operations against the Indians on the frontier. The letter is signed G. Washington in full, and a postscript is added giving some news of the sailing of a British expedition, presum- ably to Georgia, and stating what he has ordered in consequence, signed G. W. 3526 Autograph Letter Signed, 2 pp. 4to, Mount Vernon, Feb. 5, 1788. With the superscription to Charles Carter, Esq., also in Washington's handwriting. Washington had apparently, written to Lafayette asking him to procure some Irish wolf hounds, and the Marquis had enquired of an Irish land-owner about them. Wash- ington, in this letter, gives a summary of all the information he had thus gathered, practically amounting to the fact that the breed was almost extinct. 444 ^be Iburst (Tollection 3527 WASHINGTON (GEORGE). Autograph Letter Signed, 4 pp. 4to, Philadelphia, j6ih March, 1795. To His Excellency Robert Brooke, Governor of Virginia. * " Ever sincethe Geiieral Assembly of Virginia were pleased lo submit to my disposal fifty shares in the Potomack, and one hundred in the James River company, it has been my anxious desire to appropriate them to an object, most worthy of public regard. ' ' // is with indescribable regret, that I have seen the youth of the United States migrat- ing to foreign countries, in order to acquire the higher branches of erudition, and to obtain a knoivledge of the sciences. Altho^ it would be injustice to many, to pronounce the certainty of their imbibing maxims, not congenial with republicanism; it must never- theless be admitted thai a serious danger is encountered by sending abroad among other political systems those, who have not well learned the value of their own. " The time is therefore come, when a plan of universal education ought to be adopted in the United States. Not only do the exigencies of public and private life demand it; but if it should ever be apprehended that prejudices would be entertained in one fart of the Union against another; an ejfficacious remedy will be, to assemble the youth of every part under such circumstances, as will by the freedom of intercourse and collision of sentimetit, give to their minds, the direction of truth, philanthropy, and mutual conciliation.^^ Washington then proceeds to state that he will give the Potomack shares towards the endowment of the proposed university in the Federal City, and the James River shares for a seminary to be erected as the Legislature may direct. In remarkable condition, enclosed in morocco solander case, the letter paper having the water-mark of Washington's private paper. 3528 Autograph Letter Signed, i p. folio, Mount Vernon, 10th June, 1799.

Walt Whitman's Pocket Note-Book, having many leaves blank, but a few containing a strange jumble of addresses and references, among them being a reminder of "merino- socks at 25c.," an advertisement of a " beetle exterminator," a note on " press copies sent " (possibly of " Leaves of Grass "), etc. Some of the leaves have been torn out. Laid in loosely are two English envelopes addressed to Whitman, on which Whitman has written "Tennyson's letter," also a short sketch entitled "Old Mr. and Mrs. M.," a quarto leaf containing, apparently, notes for an essay on " Silence," and a scrap of paper containing some lines in Whitman's rugged metre, suggesting strongly lines in the "Leaves of Grass." 3563 Twenty-two Leaves of Whitman's Original War Diary, com- mencing at page numbered 2 and ending with 24, some missing be- tween. Written mostly on narrow folio leaves. * Founded on personal letters to his friends and relatives, and memoranda made on the spot, the diary is full of pathos, narrating many of the sorrowful scenes he met with in the hospital and on the battlefield, interspersed with his own opinions on the war. Under the date April 10, 1864, he remarks: "After Fredericksburgh I felt dis- couraged myself^ and doubted whether our rulers could carry on the war. But that has passed away. The war must be carried on. I would willingly go in the ranks myself if I thought it would profit more than as at present^ and I don t know some times btit I shall, as it is. . . . You don't know what a nature a fellow gets, not only after being- a soldier a while, but after living in the sights and infltiences of the camps, the wounded, d^c. — a nature he never experienced before. The Stars and Stripes, the tune of Yankee Doodle, and similar things, produce such an effect on a fellow as never before. I have seen them bring tears on some 7nen's cheeks, and others turn pale with emotion. T have a little flag {it belonged to one of our cavalry regiments^ presented by one of the wounded — it was taken by the secesh in a fight and rescued by our men in a bloody skirmish following. It cost three men' s lives to get back that four by three flag — to tear it from the breast of a dead rebel. . . . The man that secured it was very badly wounded, and they let him keep it. I was with him a good deal — he wanted to give me a keepsake, he said — he didn't expect to live — so he gave me that flag. The best of it all is, there isn't a regiment, cavalry or infantry, that wouldn't do the like on like occa- sion."
