An interesting letter, indicating the piety underlining Shaftesbury's philanthropy. See his long entry in the Oxford DNB, which sums up his achievements as 'very substantial' and 'a source of enduring inspiration to others', together with those of Russell and Skinner, the last of which contains, regarding the part of the 'Drummo…ndite controversy' relating to the Rev. Sir William Dunbar (d.1881): 'In [1843] a serious controversy had sprung out of the refusal of Sir William Dunbar, minister of St Paul's Chapel, Aberdeen, to receive or to administer the sacrament in accordance with the Scottish ritual. Acting with the concurrence of his synod, Skinner excommunicated Dunbar on 13 August 1843.' The present item is 4pp, 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, with negligible remnants of windowpane mount adhering at edges. Good bold signature 'Shaftesbury', and headed 'Private'. Addressed to 'The Lord Russell | M. P.', with salutation to 'My dear Russell'. Shaftesbury's elongated handwriting is not entirely legible, but the letter appears to read: 'You have now an opportunity of showing both mercy & justice to a very deserving man, the Revd Sir William Dunbar, who was so grossly treated by that saint of the "old Scotch Prelacy", Bishop Skinner. / His inheritance was left in anger (but [thro mistake?]) to pay off the national debt!! My belief is that the first national debt due, is, as the Publick friend says, "to do justice & to love mercy" -'. The postcript reads: 'The Archbishop of Canterbury strongly approves the [publication?] of the Memorial'.

12mo bifolium: 4 pp. Text clear and complete. Fair, on aged paper. Begins: 'I am sorry to say that I have to place our affairs in your hands such as I never did before and I hope never to have to do again.' As the recipient may know, 'a vessel was built for me last year by the Messrs Hall in Aberdeen and was built under the insp…ection of Lloyds surveyor according to a certain specification & contract.' Selkirk 'had so much confidence in the character of the Messrs Hall' that he thought himself 'quite safe with the supervision of the Lloyds surveyor but finding the vessel leaky I had her inspected by the Dockyard people at Malta and they discovered on removing certain planks that the construction of the vessel was essentially defective and not according to the specification & contract'. Selkirk alleges that he has been 'abominably defrauded & sent to sea in a vessel postively unsafe' as a result of 'gross carelessness or [.] collusion between Messrs Hall & the surveyor'. He spent £300 on repairs in Malta, but he cannot keep the vessel '[i]n any shape' and feels that 'Messrs. Hall ought to take her off my hands & give me back my money with such reasonable deduction as might be considered fair for the deterioration by wear & tear for a year - I being allowed also for the Malta dockyard bill as a set off against that'. He does not know how the case stands in 'strict law', but 'considering the awful exposure that an action for fraud would bring about' feels that the shipwrights 'would be anxious to compound at any rate'. Asks the recipient to try and 'privately find out in what mind they are about', and communicate the information to Eden Colville, Fenchurch Buildings, London. 'If they defy us and are in the mind to defend the action we will have to consider how to proceed.' Hall & Co were active between 1790 and 1957. According to one authority 'Alexander Hall died in 1849 leaving his two sons, James and William, to run the business. The brothers were responsible for many famous clippers.'.

Hardcover. First edition. This posthumous "collection of Reminiscences" of Winston's Churchill's uncle and political colleague is triply compelling in provenance. First, it is warmly inscribed, signed, and dated by the editor and compiler to Winston S. Churchill. Second, it was subsequently owned by Winston's only son, Randolph…S. Churchill. Third, it was thereafter part of the noted collection of Donald Scott Carmichael. The inscription is inked in seven lines on the half title: "To | Winston Churchill | in remembrance of his friend, uncle, | & colleague | from | Ishbel Aberdeen | January 1910". To each pastedown (front and rear) is affixed the bookplate of Winston's only son and first official biographer, Randolph S. Churchill. Tipped onto the front free endpaper recto is the printed ownership plate of "The Winston S. Churchill Collection of Donald Scott Carmichael." Carmichael (1912-2008) was a noted collector of both Churchill and Roosevelt material. The book is remarkable for provenance, not condition, which is very good but a bit unsightly externally. The red cloth binding is square and tight, but significantly spine-faded, with further differential toning to the covers, as well as light shelf wear to extremities and a few small scuffs and blemishes. The contents are quite good, the book unread, with most signatures following the "CONTENTS" page remaining uncut. Spotting appears confined to the first and final few leaves. We have left unerased pencil marks on the front and rear pastedowns - a check mark and "Presentation Copy" on the front pastedown, an inscrutable "y." and "L. | 21.9.76" on the rear pastedown. The binding is protected beneath clear, removable mylar and the book is housed in a stout, black cloth Solander case, with an inset red Morocco spine label, gilt spine print, and red paper-lined interior. The Solander is near fine, with a bruised upper front corner.The editor and compiler of this book was the sister of Edward Marjoribanks, second Baron Tweedmouth. Ishbel Marie Marjoribanks Hamilton-Gordon, Marchioness of Aberdeen and Temair (1857-1939) was, at turns, vice-regal consort, author, philanthropist, and women's rights advocate. As Vice-Regal Consort to Governor General John Campbell Hamilton-Gordon, Earl of Aberdeen, from 1893 until 1898, Lady Aberdeen organized the National Council of Women in Canada, became first sponsor of the Women's Art Association of Canada and helped found the Victorian Order of Nurses. Lady Aberdeen was the first woman to address the House of Commons and the first woman to receive an honorary degree in Canada.Her brother, for and about whom this volume was compiled, was Winston Churchill's uncle by marriage, having wed the third daughter of the seventh Duke of Marlborough in 1873. Lady Fanny Octavia Louisa (1853-1904) was sister to Winston's father and a force in her own right, "endowed with a native gift for society" and sharing "her husband's labour in bringing together Liberal politicians of all shades of opinion." She was in the gallery in 1901 when her nephew made his maiden speech in Parliament and, a few days before illness claimed her life in 1904, bid her husband, Edward, convey to Winston that "she takes the greatest interest in your career and hopes you will make a great name for yourself and your family."The subject of this book, Edward Marjoribanks, second Baron Tweedmouth (1849-1909) sat as a Liberal Member of Parliament from 1880 to 1894, when the death of his father elevated him to the peerage and removed him to the House of Lords as Lord Tweedmouth. He was invited by Prime Minister Lord Rosebery to join the cabinet as Lord Privy Seal and Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, where his "sure grasp of the internal mechanism and sentiment of the party gave him due weight in the inner counsels of the ministry" until Rosebery's government fell in 1895. This was not the end of his political career. Of note, Marjoribanks preceded his nephew, Winston, as First Lord of the Admiralty, from 1905 to 1908 during the premiership of Campbell-Bannerman - in whose Government young Winston served as Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies. The 1904 death of his wife, Winston's aunt, from cancer, dealt Marjoribanks "a blow from which he never completely recovered." Soon after relinquishing the Admiralty and becoming Lord President of the Council in 1908 under Prime Minister Asquith, Marjoribanks was "stricken down by a cerebral attack" from which he never rallied. His sister, Lady Ishbel Aberdeen, who inscribed this book to Winston in January 1910, cared for Marjoribanks during the final months before his death in September 1909.

thick8vo. 22cm, first edition, third impression, in 2 volumes, x,358 & vii,353pp., with 57 plate illustrations (inc 2 frontis portraits), volume indexes, original grey cloth, gilt spine titles on leather labels, vol. 1 label peeled with text loss, otherwise a fine set, very scarce. (Cdn). Volume One consists of both Lord and Lad…y Aberdeen's autobiographies of their early years; Lord Aberdeen was Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland in 1886 and served as Governor-General of Canada from September 1893 to November 1898. A substantial part of Volume Two deals with his position. His task was complicated by political difficulties - the sudden death of the Prime Minister, Sir John Thompson in 1894; the break-up of the Bowell Government in the spring of 1896; and the defeat of the Tupper Government later that year. During his stay in Ottawa, Lord and Lady took an active role in social activism. Lady Aberdeen was instrumental in founding the National Council of Women (she was the first president) and the Victorian Order of Nurses. Lord Aberdeen was again appointed Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland from 1905 to 1915. Very interesting, readable reminiscences by both authors.

Something of an historic document. In February and March of 1814 Vincence had led the French delegation at the Congress of Châtillon peace conference, at which his counterpart was Lord Aberdeen, with the British Home Secretary Lord Castlereagh arriving partway through. On behalf of Napoleon, Vincence had led, with little success… the subsequent negotiations with Russia, Prussia and Austria which resulted in Napoleon's abdication and exile to Elba, by the signing of the Treaty of Fontainbleau, a month before the present letter, on 11 April 1814, which was ratified by Vincence. The British had opposed the treaty on two grounds: that it legitimized Bonaparte, and that Elba was too close to mainland Europe for safety. The present item 1p, 4to, on the recto of the first leaf of a bifolium of laid paper. In fair condition, on aged and creased paper. With several folds. It reads: 'Le Duc de Vincence a l'honneur d'adresser à Mylord Aberdeen deux lettres qu'Il a reçues pour Lord Castlereagh et qu'il le prie de lui faire passer. Il se chargera également de transmettre les reponses dont Lord Castlereagh voudrait le charger. / Le Duc de Vincence saisit cette occasion pour renouveller à Mylord Aberdeen l'assurance de sa haute Considération.'
