ORIGINAL RECORDING OF CHARLES BUKOWSKI 7. Bukowski, Charles. Original reel-to-reel recordings of “90 Minutes in Hell”. Two seven inch reels of audio recording tape, in generic white boxes. [Hollywood]: 1966 In 1966, Santa Monica poet and bookstore owner Steve Richmond dropped off a tape recorder and some blank tapes at Charles Bukowski’s Hollywood apartment. Bukowski recorded 90 minutes of his poetry onto two reel-to-reel tapes and gave them to back to Richmond. In 1977, Steve Richmond finally issued a 2-record LP set of this recording session - “90 Minutes in Hell.” The records were released under Richmond’s bookstore name, Earth Books, in Santa Monica. In approximately 1990, Steve Richmond sold the two original tapes to Water Row Books and the idea came up to re-issue the LP set. The tapes’ boxes were labeled at Water Row Books and were sent to the professional recording studio, Blue Jay Studios, in Carlisle, Massachusetts, to validate the contents and condition of the tapes. These master tapes were found to be in good condition to use to re-issue the LP set but plans for the reissue fell through and these tapes resided in the Water Row warehouse for over twenty years. There are two individual reel-to-reel tapes, each contained in a separate white generic box. One box has the notation “Side 1 & 2” and the other box has “Side 3 & 4” - both notations written by Steve Richmond. On each box there is also a label and stamp with Water Row Books address information and a written label: Charles Bukowski 90 Minutes in Hell #1 and Charles Bukowski 90 Minutes in Hell #2. Both boxes have minor soiling, slight age wear, and some foxing; both of the 7-inch ¼” reel-to-reel tapes appear in fine condition, the sound quality and condition of both tapes was verified by a professional sound engineer at Blue Jay Studios in 1990. The sound engineer did make one CD-R transfer of each of the original tapes, these two CD-Rs are included. (700/1000)

61. (Dickens, Charles) Childs, George W. Autograph Letter Signed by George W. Childs, relating to Charles Dickens’ final appearance in America. 10 lines, in ink, on letterhead of the Public Ledger, with engraving of the headquarters of the newspaper in the upper left corner. 23x18½ cm. (9x7½”). Philadelphia: May 4th, 1868 The letter was probably written to Charles H. Sweetser, New York: “I thank you for the article “The [Floral?] Tribute to Charles Dickens” which I shall send him by the next Steamer and I know how much he will appreciate it. I gave you a little notice of your ‘Mail’ and wish you every success…” After a six-month reading tour of the , Charles Dickens’ final American appearance was at a New York journalists’ banquet in his honor at Delmonico’s in April 1868. The article mentioned in this letter was probably an account of the flower-bedecked event by Charles H. Sweetser, 27 year-old publisher of the newly-established New York Evening Mail. A few months later, Sweetser’s wife gave birth to a daughter, named Kate Dickinson after her poet cousin Emily, who was destined to one day write popular children’s books. In 1919, Kate Sweetser would find that account in an old trunk and rewrite it in book form as Dining with Dickens at Delmonico’s. Not present at the banquet was George W. Childs, wealthy and influential Philadelphia newspaper and book publisher, whose good friends included President Grant, Edison, Carnegie, Walt Whitman - and Charles Dickens, whom Childs visited at his home in England later that year. Childs would later own the original manuscript of Our Mutual Friend, the only complete Dickens book manuscript in America. The letter was trimmed down and apparently cut in half, with the two sections taped together on verso just below the date. Also trimmed at the margins, with no loss of handwriting. (150/250)

To her newly-wed husband, Trevor Westbrook, in England. 3 pages, Two 11x8½”, the third 5½x8½”. New York: April 27, 1942 British-born Sheilah Graham, one of the most influential gossip columnists in Hollywood, is remembered today as the last lover of novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald, their three-year relationship (described in her book Beloved Infidel) beginning while he was still married to his wife Zelda, who was institutionalized in an asylum. Graham remained with Fitzgerald until the day he died of a heart attack in December 1940. She then returned as a war correspondent to her native England, where she met fighter plane manufacturer Trevor Westbrook, whom she married in January 1942, weeks after the US entered World War II. When, four months later, she wrote this letter from New York to her new husband in London, she was pregnant - and explained at length why her New York Doctors “did not think it wise (to put it mildly) for me to make the trip back to England now, or at any time during the next months”. Rejecting the insistence of Westbrook and his “interfering” mother that she should come back to England during her pregnancy, Sheilah Graham was still in United States in September when she gave birth in Hollywood to a baby girl. Not until after her mother’s death in 1988 did her grown daughter discover (and reveal in a published memoir) that her biological father was not Westbrook, but British philosopher A.J. Ayer, with whom her mother had a brief affair just before her marriage - and exactly one year after the death of F. Scott Fitzgerald, the true love of her life.

Page 22 105. (Hollywood) Edwards, J.S. Autograph Letter, signed on pictorial stationery of Edwards’ Zoo, regarding animals for movies, including at a later date Tarzan of the Apes. 2 page Autograph Letter, signed, possibly secretarial, to Henry S. Martin. Approximately 11x8½” on company letterhead, with several photographic portraits. Scranton, PA: Sept. 8, 1904 “...I do not think we can show our animals under canvas, we have an Orang Outang and a Chimpanzee and those specimens contract pneumonia quite easily. We always show in storerooms on account of the character of our exhibitions. We have 70 monkeys in our exhibition, the largest collection of Simians in this country. Also a large collection of other animals...” Five years after the date of this letter, Edwards was accused of having kidnapped a mentally retarded young Black man to put him on “freak” display as “Congo, The Ape Man” - possibly the same “Gorrilla Man” shown on this stationery. In 1914, Edwards moved to Los Angeles and with his partner John Rounan, founded the “E. and R. Jungle Film Co.” to produce Hollywood films starring chimpanzees “with human brains”. In 1917 they contracted to provide apes, monkeys, lions and leopards for the first Tarzan movie based on Edgar Rice Burroughs’ famous novel. Some of the animal scenes were filmed at the E & R studio.

106. (Hollywood) Foreman, Carl. Typed Letter, signed, from the blacklisted screenwriter of High Noon. Typed Letter, signed. 2 pages, to “Johnny” [Green]. London: March 8, [1953] “...I suppose you know that I won’t be able to attend the Awards presentation. I don’t think it matters particularly, because I think it’s highly unlikely that I’d win the screenwriting Oscar, the competition in my category being pretty rough this year. However, on the off chance that something nice might happen...I should inform you of whom I’d like to represent me...Fred Zinneman, Dmitri Tiomkin or Elmo Williams...If they’re not available, pick anyone you like, so long as it isn’t someone from the Kramer organization. In the best picture category...having given up the producer credit during the course of my separation from the Kramer company...it has since been taken by Kramer by default...since I think the picture has very little chance of winning, the whole thing is fairly academic, and I don’t propose to worry my pretty little head about it. My best wishes go to you for the success of the awards affair, and I’m sure it’ll be up to your usual exciting standard...” Carl Foreman was one of the top screenwriters in Hollywood when Stanley Kramer offered him a partnership as co-producer and screenwriter for High Noon. While Foreman was working on the script in 1951, he was summoned before the “red-hunting” House Committee on Un-American Activities. He willingly testified that he had once been a member of the Communist Party, but had long since quit the Party. Refusing to discuss others he knew with alleged Communist ties, he was labeled an “uncooperative witness”. This led to a bitter falling out with Kramer, who forced Foreman to sell his part of the High Noon production company. Realizing he would be “blacklisted” and would find no future work in Hollywood, Foreman then moved to England before High Noon was released in July 1952. As he mentions in this letter to the producer of the 1953 Academy Awards ceremony - the first to be nationally televised - he retained his credit as screenwriter. Light edge wear, several punched holes along left edge; very good. (300/500)

Autograph Letter Signed by Douglas Jerrold to playwright [Joseph] Lunn, London, asking his attendance at the Garrick Club to form a Dramatic Authors Society. 12 lines, in ink, on 1st page of 4-page integral stampless lettersheet with address. Little Chelsea [London]: Undated [July 13, 1833] Joining Lunn and Jerrold at the Garrick Club will be James Sheridan Knowles, T.J. Serle and other playwrights intent on forming a Dramatic Authors Society, “to secure to us the fruits of the Dramatic Authors Art – and a law…for it is only by acting in a society that the managers are to be fought…” Parliament was about to enact the first legislation giving playwrights the legal right to be paid for both re-printing and public performances of their work. To enforce the law, Jerrold and his colleagues formed a Dramatic Authors Society, a formal licensing agency which eventually had 2000 plays under its protection and agents all over the country to report on copyright infringement by theater managers. Jerrold, one of the most popular British dramatists of his time, felt strongly about violations of dramatic copyright, which reduced most playwrights to “stark-naked poverty, with grey hairs” – a sad prediction of his own fate; on his death in 1857, his friend Charles Dickens had to stage a public reading to raise money for his widow. This significant letter about formation of the first professional association of British playwrights was quoted in full in the 1914 biography of Jerrold by his grandson. Some darkening at margins and a small edge chip; very good. (200/300)

153. (Melville, Herman) McCurdy, R[obert] H. Autograph Letter Signed, from Robert H. McCurdy to his son, who knew Herman Melville and has been portrayed as his lover. 2 pages + integral stampless address leaf. 27x21 cm. (10¾x8¼”). New York: December 21, 1850 Letter written to Theodore F. McCurdy, c/o N. Berry, Paris, France, from his father in New York. About 14 months before the letter was written, Herman Melville, then 31 yeas old, had sailed for Europe to search for a British publisher. At the start of the 25-day journey, Melville feared that he would have to share a cabin with Theodore McCurdy, 21 year-old law student, son of a rich New York merchant (and cousin of the ship’s Captain) whom Melville described as “a lisping youth of genteel capacity… quite disposed to be sociable”. Happily told that he would have a stateroom to himself, Melville spent the weeks on board talking philosophy with a Professor of Languages and a Doctor, joined in more sociable hours by McCurdy, who freely paid for the champagne and brandy. Arrived in London, the quartet spent happy evenings together until the Doctor and McCurdy left for a trip to Egypt and Jerusalem. Melville was back in New York in February 1850 to see the publication of White-Jacket - and to begin work on the whaling novel which was to be his masterpiece. When this letter was written by the senior McCurdy to his son, continuing the “grand tour” in Paris, Melville had nearly finished Moby Dick and had probably forgotten all about the tall, sickly, rich youth with whom he had crossed the Atlantic – notwithstanding a recent novel in which “Teddy” McCurdy appears as Melville’s shipboard gay lover. The letter reads in part, “..Uncle Charles…writes that Mr. Webster says he shall have his instructions immediately and may be off as soon as he pleases. He also says that Austria has complained in high terms of our government but that ‘he does not intend to eat humble pie’... Your French letter to sister was rather a puzzle…after some considerable deciphering… You must write oftener and a great deal more in detail. You doubtless will say ‘what new can I write about Paris?’ We say, Your own experience of it, in all its particulars….” Other than Melville’s diary of the trip, little is known about McCurdy or the colorful uncle mentioned in this letter, who was apparently working for Secretary of State Daniel Webster in countering Austrian diplomatic threats to retaliate for American support of the unsuccessful Hungarian revolution against Austrian rule.

IN THE VERY RARE DUST JACKET 221. Wells, H.G. The First Men in the Moon. [8], [2 blank], 312 pp. Illustrated by E. Herring with 12 plates. (8vo) 18.5x12 cm. (7¼x4½”), original dark blue cloth, spine gilt-lettered and front cover illustration in gilt; dust jacket. First Edition, second state binding. Indianapolis: Bowen-Merrill, [1901] Exceptionally rare first edition in dust jacket. A milestone in modern science fiction. The Bowen-Merrill edition preceded the London edition by about one month. This is the Currey second state binding with “Bobbs Merrill” on the spine. It is in the first state pictorial dust jacket (printed in dark blue on buff paper stock) with “Bowen / Merrill” imprint at base of spine panel. Although the book and jacket are different states, they have not been married (there is offsetting from the flap of this jacket on the fore-edges of the free endpapers); it can be surmised that the book was distributed with this jacket by the publisher who changed their name from Bowen-Merrill to Bobbs-Merrill in January 1903, some 15 months after the book was published in late September or early October 1901. The size of the edition is not known, but the book was apparently not a great success and unsold sheets of the first printing were later sold to Grosset & Dunlap. Bleiler comments, “After ‘The First Men in the Moon’, Wells’s science fiction novels are never quite the same” and that “the last and most complex [of Wells’s early scientific romances] is ‘The First Men in the Moon’. The two first men, Bedford and Cavor are well-contrasted, the civilization of the Selenites is excellent Lot 221 both as horror and satire; and the novel abounds with wonderful passages of unforced description at which Wells is unrivaled.

PERHAPS THE ONLY COPY EXTANT 223. (Whitman, Walt) Curtz, Henry. The American Yachtsman’s Master-Piece; or, The Slide- in-Keel: [History of Sail-Vessels’ Centre-Board]. 16 pp. 18.7x13.1 cm. (7½x5¼), original printed wrappers. First (and probably only) Edition Camden, NJ: Printed and published by the Author, 1887 Possibly the only existing copy (no copies are listed in OCLC/WorldCat) of a strange pamphlet by the eccentric New Jersey printer who produced small proof sheets for Whitman of his last poems - intended for the poet’s “private distribution”, though Whitman confessed that he found these printings, set by hand in old wood type at Curtz’s “ little office”, so “odd and attractive” that he felt more “free” to give away his original manuscript copies than Curtz’s printed slips. Which may explain why so few of the Curtz imprints have survived in institutional collections and none have appeared on the antiquarian market. Described by Walt Whitman as “an effete person… left over from a very remote past…the last of his race”, little is known about Curtz. Other than a political diatribe published during the Civil War, this appears to be his only publication, which, despite the title, uses an obscure maritime invention as excuse to expound on “precedent versus reason”, “American family alliances”, and “Sociality fostering statesmanship”. Added to the lot is the 1886 Memorial card for Camden, New Jersey photographer Charles H. Spieler, who was long believed to have taken the famous 1876 “Spieler Profile” photographs of Whitman, used as studies for Sidney’s Morse’s Whitman bust, now on display in the Library of Congress, as well as Whitman’s own choice as frontispiece for the 1888 edition of his collected poems and prose. A little darkening to the wrappers, fine or nearly so. (500/800)

228. (Animation - Phenakistoscopes) Two hand-made Phenakistoscope disks, one of a baseball game. Each disk approx. 20 cm. (8”) in diameter, with hand-drawn color figures and 7 cut-out narrow windows. No place: c.1850-60 Invented in the 1830s, the Phenakistoscope was an animation device that created the illusion of a moving picture. It used a spinning disk, attached to a handle, around the center of which a series of pictures was drawn below radial slits. A user would spin the disk and look through the moving slits at the disk’s reflection in a mirror and the images would appear to be in motion. Phenakistoscopes became very popular in the United States during the 1850s and 60s, and these crudely hand-made disks probably date from that era - one with a patriotic theme of a man waving an American flag; the other with a batter and pitcher in a baseball game. Some soiling and darkening, very good. (400/600)

Whitehouse was a rich New York lawyer who spent his private fortune on his amateur work as a passionate “Egyptologist”, not only conducting archaeological digs in the Middle East but receiving international acclaim for his humanitarian efforts to “regulate” the water supply from the River Nile in times of drought. Number in red pencil at head of letter, crease from mailing; very good. (100/150)

242. Birch, Samuel. Sketch of a Hieroglyphical Dictionary... Part I. Hieroglyphics and English. Division I. Phonetical symbols, vowels. 4, 12 pp. 28.5x22.8 cm. (11¼x9”), original printed wrappers. First Edition. London: William Allen & Co., 1838 Presentation copy inscribed on the front wrapper, “To Charlotte Frances Gray/ with Samuel L. Birch’s/ best regards and wishes for/ her welfare.” Birch had been seeing Ms. Gray at the time the sketch was published, and presumably presented her with this copy, his first work on Egyptology, produced when he was 25 years old, and an assistant at the British Museum. His specialty was Chinese antiquities, and he was an accomplished linguist, but he became fascinated with the Egyptian hieroglyphic system postulated by Chompollion after his examination of the Rosetta Stone. He, along with his German counterpart Lepsius, was among the first scholars to defend the system, and he would go on to become the leading Egyptologist of his day. This groundbreaking work consists of the title-page, two-page preface, and a 12-page lithographic insert on slightly smaller paper showing the symbols and English translations. Though there was never a Part II per se of this work, he expanded upon it, and eventually completed a comprehensive hieroglyphic dictionary in 1857. OCLC/WorldCat lists only seven copies, and most of those show the insert as being only 8 pages. A rare and important association copy if a seminal text on Egyptology. Charlotte Frances Gray, the eventual Mrs. Birch, was the younger sister of J.E. Gray, a friend and colleague of Charles Darwin. Wrappers chipped, starting to split along spine; top corners of 1st 4 pages creased, else very good. (700/1000)

251. (California) Lyons, Caleb. Autograph Letter Signed by Caleb Lyons, who would later be a prominent figure in the California Gold Rush, relating to his lectures on woman’s rights. 1+ pp., on 1st 2 pages of 4-page lettersheet, addressed on p.4. 25.5x20 cm. (10x8”). Collinsville, New York: December 6, 1842 Early letter by the man who took credit for designing the California state seal in 1849. Just 20 years of age, and freshly graduated from college in Vermont, Caleb Lyons launched himself on the New England lecture circuit, with his subject being woman’s rights and temperance. This letter, to Rev. W.W. Ninde, Pastor of the M.E. Church, Rome, Oneida County, New York, attempts to arrange one of these lectures: “I have not forgot your kind invite to give you a Temperance Lecture in Rome at your Church and I now can tell when I would like to do so...I would of course like to have due notice both in the churches and by the Press well circulated. Even I, with my humble abilities would not like to Lecture to empty halls. The subject of the Lecture will be of ‘Woman’s Rights and Influence, a Temperance Lecture’ by Caleb Lyon of Lyonsdale...” A few years later, with help from his politically-connected father, young Caleb got an appointment as the first U.S. Consul at Shanghai, though he may never have set foot in China, instead appearing in California in 1849 to win a job as a secretary of the new State’s Constitutional Convention - and a $1,000 gold prize from the Legislature for the state seal (actually designed by a self-effacing Virginia friend who later became a Confederate General). Lyon then returned to New York to be elected to Congress, where he cultivated friends among anti-slavery “radicals”. In 1864 he was appointed by Abraham Lincoln as the second governor of Idaho Territory, where he came very close to being indicted for embezzlement. Horizontal and vertical folds; large part of the address leaf was torn away and replaced, probably by the recipient, with a piece of paper taken from another letter, not in Lyon’s hand, and using non-archival tape. The Lyon letter itself is complete and in very good condition. (150/250)

316. (Medical - French) Three documents relating to French medicine. Includes: Lisfranc, Dr. Jacques. Document Signed, as President of the French Royal Academy of Medicine. Paris, March 31, 1835. Notifying Dr. Hering of Stuttgart that he had been honored with appointment as a Correspondent of the Royal Academy because of his “zeal for the progress of medical science.” Jacques Lisfranc de St. Martin (1790-1847) was a distinguished French Surgeon and Gynecologist who pioneered several surgical procedures, which were named after him; Garrison and Morton cite his 1815 description of a new method for amputation of the foot, probably devised while he was a young military Surgeon serving in Napoleon’s Army. The Doctor honored by this document, Edward August von Hering was an obscure German Veterinarian whose expertise in the treatment of thoroughbred horses had won him Prussian Royal distinction. Ironically, that same month, Dr. Lisfranc sent an identical letter to the great British Chemist and Physicist Michael Faraday. * Landre-Beauvais, Augustin Jacob. Document Signed - possibly with a stamp - as “Doyen de la Faculte”. Printed Ticket of Admission to a course at the University of France School of Medicine, 1828-1829. Dr. Landre-Beauvais (1772- 1840) was a French Surgeon best known for his 1800 description of Rheumatoid Arthritis, the first modern-day account of the disease (Garrison-Morton 4490). Curiously, the back of this ticket has a printed admonition that it was forbidden to enter the Medical School with a cane or weapons. * Pean, Jules Emile.

(9¾x7¾”). [Brattleboro, Vt.?]: J.H. Capen, printer, c.1855 Rare broadside presenting the rules for procedures at the Asylum, founded in the 1830s, after two decades of experience: Attendants were expected to “treat Patients with respect, kindness and attention; and never use any profane, obscene or vulgar language”; to take care that patients should not carry metal knives or forks away from the dining table, or to give any patient a razor; to deliver no letters or anything written by a patient without approval of a supervisor; and never to discuss patients’ conduct or conversation outside the Asylum. In the decade before the Civil War, Dorothea Dix was still crusading, against potent opposition, for reforms in the care of mentally ill patients – the kind of humane treatment set out in this broadside at one of the first asylums in America. OCLC/ WorldCat lists only a single example, at the Library Company of Philadelphia. Stain to lower margin, some minor edge wear; very good. (150/250)

Page 79 319. (Medical - Nursing) Wildenbruch, Ludwig von. Autograph Letter Signed (in French), as Prussian Ambassador to Ottoman Turkey, relating to medical treatment and nursing in the Crimean War, with veiled reference to the accomplishments of Florence Nightingale. 2 pages, on 4-page stampless lettersheet, addressed on p.4. 27x21.5 cm. (10½x8½”), Pera [Contantinople], Turkey: March 29, 1855 Von Wildenbruch writes to British Ambassador Lord Stratford (Canning) de Redcliffe, thanking him for allowing Dr. Morris to inspect the English Hospital at Constantinople, where he felt great “admiration” for the care of the “brave sick and wounded soldiers” who were being treated there, though he had doubts about the “too great abundance” of patients. A year before, Britain and France, allied with Turkey, Germany and Austria, declared war on imperial Russia. After fighting began on the Crimean coast of the Black Sea, the allied troops suffered greatly during the winter of 1854-55 from lack of fuel, clothing and supplies. Hearing in London of the horrible conditions of the British wounded, in November 1854, 35 year-old Florence Nightingale took 38 British women volunteer nurses to staff an overcrowded British military hospital near Constantinople, hundreds of miles from the battlefields. The nurses - who were not welcomed by the male Army Doctors - found a shortage of medicine and food and such awful sanitary conditions that many of the evacuated wounded were dying of typhus, cholera and dysentery. Not until March 1855, after the inspection of a British Sanitary Commission, did improved Hospital sanitation and ventilation begin to reduce the high death rate. The (apparently) German doctor, who visited the Hospital that same month with credentials from Ambassador von Wildenbruch was perturbed by the overcrowding. But he could only praise the care given the patients, thanks - though this diplomatically-worded letter neglects to mention it - to Florence Nightingale, known poetically as “the Lady with the Lamp”. Some creasing and wear along one edge, very good. (200/300)

320. (Medical - Psychology) Buchanan, Joseph. The Philosophy of Human Nature. vi, [2], 336 pp. (8vo) 20.3x12 cm. (8x4¾”), period calf. First Edition. Richmond, K[entucky]: Printed by John A. Grime, 1812 Joseph Parrish’s The Philosophy of Human Nature is unquestionably the most original American contribution to psychology before William James’ Principles of Psychology published nearly 80 years later. Notable both as an early Kentucky imprint and a groundbreaking medical treatise, the work was prepared as lectures to be delivered in the contemplated medical school of Transylvania University. The PsycINFO database of the American Psychological Association notes “The chapters in this book examine the human body and human nature. The author explores the topics of excitement, sensory perception, perceptual stimulation, the human mind, truth, beliefs, the association of ideas, human emotions, feelings, volition, will, voluntary actions, anatomical and physiological systems, diversity of excitability, and the dependence and interdependence of sensory organs and systems. Animal comparisons are also included.” Ink name of Corman L. Chambliss to title-page, along with a few light pencil names. Covers well worn, front joint cracked with cover nearly detached, rear joint partially cracked; some soiling, darkening and foxing to contents; good. (500/800)

Boston: Perkins & Marvin, 1836 First appearance of a very influential tract, often reprinted, which helped launch the first anti-Tobacco movement in America. Dr. Reuben Dimond Mussey (1780-1866), Professor of Surgery at Dartmouth and Ohio Medical College, President of the New Hampshire Medical Society, and later, of the American Medical Association, was also widely respected among anti-alcohol Temperance crusaders, such as the three young Theology students from notable Maine families, who presented and received this copy, with an inscription to Samuel C. Fessenden from John Tappan and C.H. Hamlin at the top of the front wrapper: Cyrus Hamlin, later founder of Robert College in Istanbul and a relation of Lincoln’s future Vice President; John Tappan, brother of the rich abolitionist who would bankroll defense of the Amistad slave rebels; and the recipient, Samuel Clement Fessenden, later Civil War Congressman whose brother would be Lincoln’s Secretary of the Treasury.

322. (Medicine - Quarantine Island, New York) DeWitt, Benjamin. Autograph Letter, signed, from the doctor on New York City’s first “Quarantine Island” for immigrants. Autograph Letter, signed. 2 pages plus integral address leaf. [Staten Island, NY]: May 17, 1817 Address to “The Commissioners of Health, New York, care of Mr. Roonie”. “I have been negotiating with the Mr. Humphreys…and the most favorable terms I can obtain from them for doing the work we require is $800. For that sum they will engage to make a substantive stone wall along the beach and fill it in to High water nearly, and also to regulate the ground and road adjacent, and cover the Quarantine wharf with a sufficient coat of earth. The new wharf along the line fence is not included in this estimate, they say it will cost $100 more to have that covered… The other work is indispensable and they say it cannot be done for less. They wish to have an answer on Monday next… you should let me know by one of the first boats on the morning of Monday, or else perhaps you may find it convenient to come down in person on Monday and decide on the matter here, which I should prefer.” Two years after Dr. Benjamin DeWitt wrote this letter, New York high society was shocked to learn that he had died in the course of his official duties as the second Health Officer of the Port of New York, having accepted that un-coveted post after serving as Surgeon to Army regiments guarding New York City against the British during the War of 1812. Before that, he had been Private Secretary to his relative, New York Governor George Clinton, later Vice President of the United States under Thomas Jefferson. The Doctor himself was socially prominent and politically active in the Tammany Society. Also founding editor of the New York Medical Journal and Professor at the State University of New York, his professional credentials were impeccable. So it was out of pure public spirit that Dewitt accepted his burdensome work on that section of Staten Island set aside to quarantine newly-arrived ship’s passengers diagnosed with deadly diseases like cholera, typhoid and yellow fever – which ultimately led to his own death. Creased from mailing, light wear; very good. (300/500)

Westy and Abe are doing a great job and make an unbeatable first team. I am really proud to be in a position to help them... The message of discontent at home is beginning to get intense to us out here. It is reflected in many things, and I am afraid that, where resources are concerned, the honeymoon is over. We must find a much better way to articulate our very real progress over here. I am afraid that it is simply not coming through...There is a new batch of young representatives out here from the major newspaper and press media, most of them with a chip on their shoulders and definitely hostile to our efforts in Vietnam. We need someone like you to handle such a problem. This could make us or break us out here... P.S.
