Description
30/03/1846. At the time Lincoln wrote this, he was running for CongressIt shows the relationship between perhaps the most famous senior and junior law partners https://vimeo.com/943731365?share=copy In his nearly 25 years as a lawyer in Springfield, Illinois, Abraham Lincoln had three partners. He joined John Todd Stuart as a junior partner, then started a new practice as a junior partner with Stephen T. Logan. In 1844 Lincoln and Logan took on William H. Herndon. In the fall of 1844, Lincoln was tired of being a junior partner. He had worked for senior partners with political ambitions, and Lincoln wanted a younger partner to whom he could relate. Logan and Lincoln dissolved their partnership in December 1844. Logan wanted to practice law with his son David, and Lincoln wanted to start his own law firm. In October Lincoln invited his friend William Herndon to form a partnership with Herndon as junior partner. Thus was born Lincoln and Herndon. The firm would become a legend. In all three firms, Lincoln functioned as a general practitioner, taking a wide variety of civil and criminal cases. Herndon did not disappoint his friend. He contributed to the practice by performing research for his older and more experienced partner, building the firm's law library, and overseeing young men who came to study law (read the law) at their office.Business began slowly for the new firm. Not until March 1845 was their first case heard in the Sangamon County Circuit Court. That first case was Hope v. Beebe et al, and was action in debt with Lincoln and Herndon appearing for plaintiff and Logan for defendant. Here is a description of that case: A plaintiff Norwood had won a replevin suit against the Beebee (also spelled Beebe) Brothers in the U. S. Circuit Court (Beebee Brothers v. Whitney & Norwood). Hope, the marshal of the U. S. Circuit Court, District of Illinois, to help Norwood collect what he was owed, retained Lincoln and Herndon and sued Beebee and others in an action of debt, the intent being to collect money ordered paid by the court. Beebee and others named on the replevin bond in the federal suit failed to perform the obligation of bond - they did not or would not pay. Beebee claimed that he was unable to pay because of another suit that Norwood instituted against Beebee.On March 18, 1845, the case was continued and heard again in July, when Lincoln filed documents allowing for concessions on both sides. It was again continued until March of 1846. Lincoln, with the help of Herndon, then drafted another document, seemingly pointing to the another aspect of the suit and explaining why the plaintiff should not have to drop the suit.In 1846, Lincoln was running for what would be his first elected position, Congressman. In August, he won that election and served one term. In March, he was campaigning and seeking to gain support.Autograph document signed, ""Lincoln & Herndon,"" Springfield, late March 1846, in the hand of both partners, showing their collaboration. It begins in Lincoln's hand: “And for further replication,"" before switching to Herndons for the lines,"" to the said plea of the said defendants by them above pleaded, said plaintiff says that to be further precluded from maintaining his said action against said defendants because of the matters in said plea alleged, he ought not because he says that since the pleading of the last plea by said defendants to wit on — day of February AD 1846, the said replevin suit by the said Norwood and Turner against the said Beebees in the Said plea mentioned, was by the same court at which it was pending, determined in favor of the said Beebees and against the said Norwood and Turner, and by the judgment of said court, a return of the bacon in the plea mentioned.”Lincoln hand wrote the balance: “…Mentioned was awarded to the said Beebees, and also adjudged that the said Beebees should recover of and from the said Norwood and Turner the sum of $650, damages, and costs of suit, and this he is ready to verify. Wherefore he prays judgment.” At that time Lincoln was preparing for his run for Congress, his only national election until 1860.The parties would later reach an agreement in March 1847, and the court dismissed the case. Lincoln and Herndon received fees of $25 for their legal services. A final version of this filed document is published by the Papers of Abraham Lincoln, as is the judge's further March 1846 continuance. The present document is three pieces affixed, either by Lincoln or at a later date.This is the only paperwork from Lincoln and Herndon’s first case we have ever seen on the market.

Description
New York: Dick & Fitzgerald, 1858. First edition. Fine. Original publisher's cloth binding stamped in gilt and blind. Brown coated endpapers. Externally a bright, pleasing copy with internal scattered foxing throughout. Previous owner's signature in pencil to half title. Collates xvii, [1], 19-132, [12]: complete with half title and adverts. Light scattered foxing, else clean and unmarked. In all, a pleasing copy. Scarce in trade and institutionally, OCLC locates 8 copies worldwide, of which 6 are in the U.S. The infamous Lola Montez managed to fit multiple lives into one: actress and dancer, courtesan, mistress to King Ludwig I of Bavaria, Countess of Landsfeld, and finally revolution-era emigree to California. In each of these roles, she relied on a finely honed sense of social diplomacy and wit to accomplish her ends; and The Arts of Beauty is the perfect textual product to encapsulate these skills. Engaging with classical satirical texts like Ovid's Ars Amatoria as well as contemporary conduct guides penned by men for the "benefit" of women, Montez composes a manual that is part informative beauty instructor and part parody. The Greek and Roman sources she references point to her intellectual depth and position of authority -- on the first page of the preface alone appear names and quotations from Aristotle, Juvenal, Socrates, and Theophrastus -- but they are also used to set the cheeky tone of the work. "When Aristotle was asked why everyone was so fond of beauty, he replied 'It is the question of a blind man.'" Fully aware that a woman's success was often bound to both her ability to physically and mentally fascinate men, Montez sets an example for her reader while also providing practical information on how to maintain a beautiful figure, overcome blemishes, dress to best advantage, and socially comport oneself. The Arts of Beauty are thus more than cosmetic -- they are power. Like Ovid before her, Montez also can't help but direct her book toward both sexes. Why should men not concern themselves as well with performing? To this end she provides a hilariously misguided series of 50 recommendations on how men can make themselves attractive to women. "Rule the Thirteenth. If you invite a lady to the theatre, neglect not to leave her, and go out to drink with your male friends between each act, as this will show her that you have confidence that she can protect herself... Rule the Twenty Second. Should you invite a lady out to supper you must, by all means, order three times as much expensive dishes as it will be possible for you to eat, as this will show her that you have a generous disregard for money...which will convince her your wife will never want." Ultimately, Montez's dedication is the most honest moment of the text, inviting readers to be in not only on the joke of the book, but on the true lessons that underlie it: "To all Men and Women of every land, who are not Afraid of Themselves, who trust so much in their own souls that they dare to stand up in the might of their own Individuality to meet the tidal currents of the World, this book is respectfully dedicated." Fine.

Description
Oxhey, Watford, England: Lott's Bricks, Ltd., 1911. A rare, complete set of English building blocksin the original box. "They are made of artificial stone; the solid substance, the heavy weight, and the clean squareness of each block combine to make admirable building material." Astonishingly, nothing is missing from this set, including the original brochures. The box contains the elements to construct six different structures: A country house, tower, cottages, garage, library and parish hall. In short, representatives of the most familiar buildings in an English village may be made. Anyone that has had the good fortune of wandering through the British country side will certainly appreciate the seriousness with which architectural form is taken in order to preserve the heritage of taste and simplicity. The makers of these sets, of which this is Series "B", Box Two, was dedicated to leading children to an understanding of "sound building lines." "The general effect is charming and picturesque to a degree, far beyond the general run of children's toys." The sets are widely known and collected in Britain. To find an example outside of the UK and in such fine state of preservation is delightfully elusive. For any devotee of the Arts and Crafts period of design, this set provides a most unusual treasure for architect and home owner alike. Please request postage quote..extremely heavy item!
