BADEN-POWELL ROBERT: (1857-1941) British Lieutenant General, founder of the Scout movement. A good autograph statement signed, R S S Baden Powell, Lt. Genl., one page, 8vo, Princes Gate, London, n.d. In bold black fountain pen ink Baden-Powell has penned, in full, 'I like soldiering because it offers a useful career and a clean one. I believe that as a soldier a man of only average ability and means has a better chance than in any other profession of doing something for his fellow-men and for his country. For his fellow-men, by influencing a very considerable number of them for good, and training them for good citizenship; for his country by devoting himself in helping to uphold its prestige whenever required. And it is a life of continuous interests and firm friendships'. Boldly signed at the conclusion. An excellent statement.

Typed letter signed on headed 'Boy Scouts Association' paper Typed letter signed ("Robert Baden-Powell") on headed 'Boy Scouts Association' paper, writing in reply to a letter enquiring about his "favourite source of quotation", Baden-Powell answers that this would be "The Man in the Street" in the Daily Sketch, because "he exactly represents balanced good sense when it is so much needed in these dangerous times".

Baden Watkins.Catherina Boevey (1669-1726) the chatelaine of Flaxley Abbey was a most generous distributor to the poor, prisoners and many others throughout the long years of her widowhood. She was parodied by Sir Richard Steele as the Perverse Widow of Sir Roger de Coverley in The Spectator, the magazine he founded with his friend Joseph Addison. The daughter and heiress of a wealthy London merchant, John Riches (1628-1718) and his wife Ann, née Davall, she married aged 15 in 1684 William Boevey (1667-1692) a dissolute youth who a year earlier, aged 16, had inherited Flaxley Abbey and the estate from a cousin that died without issue. Her unhappy marriage was childless and her husband who was given to "excesses, both in debauch and ill-humour" died at 25. She devoted the rest of her life to good works, rejecting all subsequent offers of marriage, hence Steele giving her the sobriquet the perverse widow.++Lined and restored in the early 20th c when placed on the present stretchers and on the reverse of the support a handwritten label inscribed No12 Catherine Bovey (see 8 and 34) 1913.
