India. Manuscript Plan of the Position of the Confederate Armies under the Direction of Earl Cornwallis before Shrerungputtun.

Likewise the Position of the Enemy's Army Commanded by Tippoo Sultan in person previous to the Action of the Night of February 1792, pen, ink and watercolour plan with a large decorative cartouche and 'scrolled' key, one closed tear, old folds, tipped on to later blue paper, 355 x 220 mm A highly unusual and accurate plan of Srirangapatna during the war with Tipu Sultan. Srirangapatna was the scene of the last and decisive battle fought between Tipu Sultan and a combined force of 50,000 men provided equally by the Nizam of Hyderabad and the East India Company under the overall command of General George Harris. This battle was the last engagement of the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War. The Battle of Seringapatam, 1799, was truly momentous in its historic effects. At the battle's climax, Tipu Sultan was killed within the fort of Seringapatam, betrayed by one of his own confidants; the spot where he ultimately fell is marked by a memorial. Apart from the usual gold and cash, innumerable valuables, objets d'art and many of the personal effects of Tipu Sultan, were shipped to England; including the famous automaton 'Tipu's Tiger' which is on display at The Victoria and Albert Museum. Much of the site of the Battle is still intact including the ramparts, the Water Gate, the place where the Tipu Sultan's body was found, the area where the British prisoners were held and the site of the destroyed palace.

Cromwellian Confiscations Important Deed Listing Property in Cork City, 1668 Co. Cork: Indenture dated 25 April 1668 whereby Richard and Henry Titchborne [sic] of Dublin grant property in Cork City to Noblet Dunscombe, Thomas Farren and Robert Fletcher of Cork, to hold for 61 years at an annual rent of £160. The Titchbornes were sons of Sir Henry Tichborne, one of the "Forty-Nine Officers," i.e. those who were serving in the royalist army in Ireland as of 5 June 1649 and who were offered lands confiscated from the Irish in lieu of arrears of pay. Sir Henry was the builder of Beaulieu House in Co. Louth, where he died in 1667. His two sons Richard and Henry were granted the confiscated property in Cork and Dublin that had been due to him, and in this deed they rent out the Cork property to three prominent citizens. This is a lengthy document, listing the Tichborne property in Cork house by house and stating in each case the names of the present tenants and the forfeiting owners who had held it in 1641. An important document showing how urban property was apportioned following the Cromwellian confiscations and the Acts of Settlement and Explanation passed by Charles II. Written in English on vellum (2 membranes), signed and with 3 original seals. As a m/ss. (1)
ORIGINAL ILLUMINATED CHARTER OF CHARLES II WITH DETAILS OF PROPERTY GRANTS IN CORK CITY Co. Cork: A magnificent original charter of Charles II dated 19 August in the 19th year of his reign (1667), listing many properties in the city of Cork with the names of forfeiting proprietors and new tenants. The purpose of the charter was to satisfy the demands for compensation of the "Forty-Nine Officers" - those officers who had served in the royalist army during the wars in Ireland prior to 5 June 1649, remaining loyal to the King thereafter and who had not therefore been granted lands by the Cromwellian government. It lists property in Cork City which had been held by Irish Catholics in 1641 and consequently forfeited under Cromwell, and which is now granted to the officers who had petitioned. They are represented by their trustees Captain Hercules Langford and Robert Fitzgerald Esq., and there is also a separate grant of land in counties Antrim and Armagh to Captain Langford. The charter consists of three membranes of vellum, measuring respectively approx 78 x 77, 78 x 59 and 75 x 34 cm (30 ¾ x 30 ½, 30 ¾ x 23 ¼ and 29 ¾ x 13 ½ inches). It is in fine condition but lacks its seal. The text (approx 6500 words) is in English. The head of the first sheet is exuberantly illuminated, the first six words being gilded with a silver background. The initial letter "C" of Charles is contained within a separate scrollwork panel in the left hand corner and surrounds a portrait of the King. To the right are the royal arms, with the lion and unicorn supporters also shown separately, together with national emblems such as the rose, thistle and fleur-de-lis (for England, Scotland and France), and a butterfly and dragonfly. The survival of the charter is miraculous: it was discovered by chance during a waste-paper campaign in the city, and rescued. The lengthy text (misdated to 1666) was transcribed and published in 1964 in the Journal of the Cork Historical and Archaeological Society, together with a brief introduction, tabular summary, and map. This document is of major importance in tracing the development of Cork in the early modern period, especially as the Civil Survey for Cork city and county (apart from the barony of Muskerry) has not survived. It compares interestingly with a valuation of Cork City carried out in 1663-64 and published in vol. VI of the Civil Survey, edited by R.C. Simington. As a m/ss, w.a.f. *A highly important survival.
