    Original typescript, 28 cm., 70 pp., rectos only, interleaved with 54 photos, both original and photo reproductions of historical scenes and figures, most 4 x 6 in., laid down and captioned. Hole punched at left margins and bound with a long metal fastener and plain green paper wrappers (worn and chipped). Thomas Clyde Colt's tribute to his first wife, and to the places in New Jersey that shaped both of their lives. In his preface he likens his work to Dickens' portrayal of David Copperfield and the vicissitudes of the life of a boy: "If you read this book, you will say it concerns the vicissitudes in the life of a girl. Maud is just as lovely a heroine as David is a hero, but Maud was real." A portion of the text is devoted to a history of Morristown, Madison, and Newark, and Princeton, New Jersey and various historical figures including George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Samuel F.B. Morse, and Thomas Edison. The author spends some seven pages on a brief history of the state of New Jersey and Thomas Edison's part in it. There are photos or photo reproductions of Washington, Hamilton, Morse, Edison, Molly Pitcher, Abraham Lincoln, U.S. Grant, the Chapel and Provost House at Princeton, the race horse Loantake, the Old Speedwell Iron Works at Morristown, the Old Astor Hotel in New York City pictured with Civil War troops marching down Broadway in 1861, etc. The main focus of the text is the author's biography of Maud Gallagher, born in Morristown in 1870. Her father George was apprenticed to a carpenter before the Civil War interrupted his training. Her mother Frances Mather's parents were from Sussex County, New Jersey, a farming family with ten children. George and Frances married after the war and moved to Morristown, then Newark. George took some work building the new ocean pier at Coney Island but was caught in a storm on the nightshift and contracted a cold from which he never really recovered. He died in 1882, and Frances moved with Maud to Chicago to live with one of her married sisters. At some point there was a rift and Frances and Maud found themselves struggling on their own. Frances began to earn her living as a seamstress, and advertised her services: "Mrs. F.M. Gallagher, Dressmaker. Chidlren's Clothes a Specialty." Maud assisted her when she was not in school. After a few years they had earned enough money to return to New Jersey in 1885, to live with another of Frances' sisters, Libby, in Deckertown. Libby's son Edson Martin had a job as head baker at the Morris Plains Insane Asylum, and got Frances a job, likely as a seamstress. Colt notes that the asylum had by then been open for four years and had about 600 patients. In addition to the bakery, Edson helped with musical programs there which were offered as "part of the study to give them recreation and bring them back mentally, which was often possible." Maud went to live with another of Frances' sisters, Ruth, in Madison for a time, before moving to a farm estate belonging to a Dr. Leslie Ward, and managed by her cousin Emily and her husband. Dr. Ward was one of the founders of Prudential Life Insurance Company. Colt digresses now and then, giving a description of life in Madison, New Jersey in the mid-1880s, the businesses, the local entrepreneurs, the race horses. He gives some details of the life, career and family of Dr. Leslie Ward. In 1886, Maud's mother Frances returned to the area, taking a job at the Essex County Insane Asylum and securing a place for Maud in the training school for nurses there. At some point during her training she was attacked by a patient and the doctor in charge, worried about her safety and her health, helped her to get a job at Dr. Ward's Prudential Life Insurance Company. At this point the author gives a brief account of his own autobiography. As a young man of 22, successful in the express freight business, he met Maud at a party and was smitten and they married in 1890. Frances herself moved on to New Haven becoming a housekeeper for an elderly widower. Here the story ends. Thomas Clyde Colt was the owner of Colt's Orange, Newark and New York Express, according to a 1902 Orange, NJ City Directory. He married Maud Mather Gallagher in 1890. They had one child who died young. Maud died in 1897 at the age of 27: "a lady of superior culture and natural refinement, of gentle, kindly temperament and loving disposition, and her cheering presence and life endeared her to all who knew her." [see: "Biographical and Genealogica History of the City of Newark and Essex County," (NY & Chciago: 1898, v. 2, p. 330] Colt remarried and had a family including a son, Thomas Clyde Colt, Jr. (1905-1985). The younger Thomas was a graduate of Dartmouth, and later director of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, the Portland [OR] Art Museum, and the Dayton Art Institute. Apparently his father left his historical musings to him, as Thomas Colt Jr.'s biography in the Dictionary of Virginia Biography notes that in retirement he "spent much of his time gardening and working on his father's memoirs, which he published in 1979." This work, titled "Memories of the 19th Century," was published by him under his father's name in Dayton, Ohio. The Library of Congress describes it as an edition of 40 copies, 119 pp., with 2 leaves of plates and illustrations.

Yates' work with the USC&GS took him around the US and abroad; his work included observing the earth's surface density in Hawaii; surveying Lake Pontchartrain, the AlaskaYukon border, and the Aleutian Islands; surveying and ship-building in the Philippines and Hong Kong; and surveying the oyster bars in Maryland and Delaware. Offered here is a large collection of photographic and written material belonging to Yates. The photographs are almost entirely family shots. Subjects are generally identified verso by their initials, and include Yates; his grandparents, James Dennison Colt and Abigail Weber; his parents, Walter Lloyd Yates and Charlotte Colt; and especially his brother Alonzo Colt Yates, sister-in-law Elizabeth Deming, and their children Evelyn and Lloyd Deming Yates. The written material relates to Yates' work and includes incoming correspondence, particularly work assignments sent by the Survey's various superintendents; Yates' drafts of outgoing correspondence; field expense formsproviding a look at the more quotidian activities of the Survey's researchersand departmental circulars; resumes and applications; notes and article drafts; and newspaper clippings. The latter generally relate to either the 1916 controversy around Woodrow Wilson's scientific appointments, particularly of E. Lester Jones, or to the 1916 and 1928 Merchant Marine Acts. The merchant marine issue preoccupied Yates as several of his letters and articles concern the subject; other of his articles are an 1898 "Report on the Establishment of a Self Registering Tide Gauge at Morehead City, N.C" and a 1914 report on oceanography. Early in his career, Yates apparently wanted out of the Survey, writing to several different people seeking a teaching position and explaining that his "desire to become a teacher, and ultimately a professor, is so great, that I am willing to make a considerable sacrifice" in terms of pay (July 16, 1896). Of course, there would have been upsides to leaving the Survey, as working conditions at the time were far from ritzy; for instance, fellow officer Alex S. Christie wrote of the employee at the Sandy Hook tidal station in New Jersey: "Where now located, on the west side of this sand spit, the observer is completely isolated and threatens to resign. He has no love for nature, and no resources within himself. I could be very happy there." (July 26, 1892) Similarly, Superintendent William Ward Duffield attempted to convince Yates that the conditions on the Alaska-Yukon boundary survey were more tolerable than he might think: "It might pertinently be added here that the American Transportation and Trading Company has a number of stations on the Yukon and carries a large stock of goods including drugs, etc. at points near the boundary. The country is better supplied with means of existence and communication than was supposed sometime ago." (February 29, 1896) As references for a teaching position, Yates offered his Case classmate and highly decorated electrical engineer Comfort Avery Adams, then at Harvard, and Case president Cady Staley. Yates corresponded occasionally with Staley, including helping him with research by, among other things, giving him honest advice on the use of a theodolite: "From a personal experience: to approach a Vertical Circle without ever having seen one and having had it explained by a textbook is not only awkward but a[n] embarrassing experience and perhaps even a disastrous experience when the proper approach of the level correction is reached." (February 24, 1897) Another Case affiliate with whom Yates corresponded was Albert A. Michelson, then at the University of Chicago. Michelson is best known for the 1887 Michelson-Morley experiment, a test of the speed of light performed at Case with Edward W. Morley and the assistance of Comfort Adams, then a student. Yates had sent Michelson an observation of some kindthough he did not save the draft of this outgoing letterand Michelson responds with several pages of reasoning: "I scarcely think it likely that refraction is the cause of the color observed but even if this were the case it would not help matters much. The angle subtended by the spectrum could certainly not be less than 10" if a consistent color could be appreciated [.] Nevertheless I would recommend that the color phenomenon be carefully observed and recorded for it may throw light on other matters of importance even tho not of immediate practical use." (March 8, 1896) Yates also kept up with his Case classmates; several letter drafts in the archive are addressed "dear Classmates" and seem to be part of a semi-regular correspondence where the former classmates would update each other on their careers and lives, though only Yates' outgoing mail is represented. Yates writes a particularly interesting letter to his classmates describing his time in the Philippines and Hong Kong, the surveying of which had become part of the USC&GS's duties after the US assumed control of the territory: "I was just leaving for a surveying cruise along the south west coast of Samar Island the island General 'Jakey' Smith and brother officers made so famous by their approved 'water cure' and other ancient methods of obtaining information from the natives. We had an excellent Thanksgiving's dinner in Jakey's former residence the 'bungalow' at Tacloban, and although many of his officers were still there, I feel quite certain that water was not mentioned but their liquid method of obtaining information was probably even more effective. No doubt the natives of Samar are well subdued, at least we judged so from the fact that when they saw any of our boats put off from the ship, they immediately abandoned house and home.
