AVIATION INTEREST - An early aircraft compass, the liquid-filled bowl with a card signed 'The Clift Patent', gimbal-mounted in an aluminium frame, fitted in an oak display case, the glazed cover with a label inscribed 'The actual compass mentioned above was used by Mr C.L. Pashley in the Humber Monoplane which he flew in the Michelin Trophy in 1911. Kindly lent by Mr C. L. Pashley', case overall 23cm wide.Sold together with a copy of the sale catalogue and a related newspaper clipping. Provenance: Ex. Dominic Winter sale lot 28 The Pashley name is iconic in pioneering aviation, primarily through the contributions of brothers Cecil and Eric Pashley. Cecil's memoirs recount an early fascination with aeronautics, inspired by observation balloons from the Boer War. The brothers initially experimented with aircraft models, sparking their passion for flight.In 1908, at 17 and 16, Cecil and Eric began flying by piloting a biplane glider down a hill in Hockley, Essex. Their activities soon relocated to the Brooklands racing circuit and Aerospace near Weybridge, Surrey, a hub for aviation enthusiasts and a burgeoning flying school.In November 1909, they witnessed a powered flight exhibition by French aviator Louis Paulhan at Brooklands. This experience cemented their aviation ambitions. Five years later, in 1913, they established the Pashley Brothers Flying School at Shoreham Airport. Shoreham, home to an Aero Club and a nexus for both experienced and aspiring pilots, provided an ideal setting for their venture. Over the years, they trained numerous pilots, including Frederick George Miles, with whom Cecil later founded the Gnat Aero Company and Southern Aero Club.Before founding their flying school, the brothers participated in air races. Cecil entered the first All-British Michelin Cup in 1910 but crashed during trials. In 1911, his Bleriot monoplane failed to complete the course. In 1914, the Pashley brothers won the inaugural Brighton Aerial Cup at Shoreham, overcoming scepticism about their biplane and gaining significant publicity for Shoreham Airport.During World War I, all three Pashley brothers contributed their aviation expertise to the military. Cecil was a flying instructor at the Royal Naval Air Service training school, while Eric and Herbert joined the Royal Flying Corps. Tragically, Eric and Herbert lost their lives in 1917 and 1916, respectively.Provenance: Ex. Dominic Winter Sale Lot 28, 11th November 2004.
A First World War period officer's Verner's pattern compass, named to R L McCreery, 12th Lancers, in an original leather case further named with initials 'R.L. Mc C' (General Sir Richard Loudon McCreery) Provenance: Captain Samuel Charles Robert Lane Clarke, Wiltshire Regiment; later Reverend Clarke (b. 25th August 1891). How he acquired this compass is unclear. Although serving in different regiments and theatres during the First World War, it is quite possible that both career service soldiers crossed one another's paths during their long respective military lives. McCreery was promoted to Adjutant of the 12th Lancers in 1921 and the regiment was stationed in Ireland, as was Clarke with the Wiltshire Regiment. Capt. Clarke was known to be a gambler; this compass could have been the fruit of one such game. Possible Wiltshire connections include when McGreery was Brigade Major of 2 Cavalry Brigade from 1930-1933 when stationed at Tidworth on Salisbury Plain; however, Major Clarke was stationed at Crownhill Plymouth until 1932 when he was moved to Aldershot.General Sir Richard Loudon McCreery, GCB, KBE, DSO, MC (1 February 1898 – 18 October 1967) was decorated for leading one of the last cavalry actions in the First World War. During the Second World War, he was chief of staff to General Sir Harold Alexander at the time of the Second Battle of El Alamein. He later commanded the British Eighth Army, fighting in the Italian campaign from October 1944 until, leading it to victory in the final offensive in Italy. Condition:The personalisation details are where the serial number and manufacturer details normally are. However, this looks like a Verner's pattern MK VIII, circa 1917/18 Missing the original rubber friction disc. The compass apprears to be in working order and points north. There is some loss of paint to the arrow on the dial, which was probably originally luminous, and a small blemish to the glass. The small magnifier works. The cover is missing the circular glass reticule. The leather case has expected wear but remains supple and has no significant tears Please see additional images

See footnote for further details. Footnote:Sold together with a type-written oral history of Major Clarke’s military career as dictated to family.Relevant entries include ‘The Wiltshire embarked on the S.S. Oriana on the 13th March and arrived to Basra on the 26th March 1916. After waiting there about a month for river transport we went up river on the old Blosse Lynch to the Mesopotamian front line at Sheik Saad. A week later we took over trenches opposite the Turks front line in the HANNAH position. On the 5th April 1916 we attacked this position and overran a number of lines trenches which had been evacuated by the enemy the night before. We continued to advance and came under very heavy rifle, machine gun and artillery fire from the strongly held Falyhia defences some two miles from Hannah. The ground was so flat it gave no cover and our casualties steadily mounted … By midday our numbers were depleted it was decided to make the assault under cover of darkness with fresh troops. We were relieved by the 7th Division. We did not get a rest for long as we were ordered to the right bank of the Tigris in support of the 3rd Division and continued fighting there until General Townsend was forced to surrender on the 29th April 1916. The siege lasted 143 days. Townsend surrendered with 9000 troops, 6000 of them Indian. The relief force casualties amounted to 20,000 in all ranks. The 5th Wiltshire’s lost some 23 Officers and 600 other ranks. On the 18th April 1916 at the Battle of Beit Eassia on the right bank of the Tigris I was wounded. A shrapnel bullet penetrated by right chest wall just missing the lung. There were no ambulances and Army Transport mule carts were used to transport wounded to the River steamers. These carts were an open metal framework without springs on an axel, and two large wheels, not intended for personnel carrying…… we reached the vicinity of Kult el Amara still held by the Turks. Kut had to be captured before an advance could be made further North. The 40th Brigade took up position in the Hai salient. This salient was made where the river Hai flowers into the river Tigris, just south of Kut. Here we proceeded to dig ourselves in and then ‘Mole’ ourselves forward. In a series of trench lines to within assaulting distance of the Turk trench lines south of Kut. It was a slow means of approaching an enemy position and often a costly one in casualties as this proved. You mole out a number of sap heads in right angles at the trench you are in and in the direction of the enemy position; that night under cover of the dark you work in the open to join up these sap heads and form another line of trench.It was in this kind of operation I was wounded a second time. Before this happened, I with the 40th Brigade took part in an attempt to cross the Tigris above Kut. The place chosen for the attempted crossing was about ten miles distant at the junction of a very deep crossing and wide ditch with the Tigris close to the Shumeran Bend. We did a forced march to get in this depression under cover of dark. We took with us a complete Bridging Unit drawn by mules, a pair of mules to each section, of which there were many.The whole force got into the depression without incident. When we started to emerge from our place of cover to launch bridging boats to cross the river we came under such heavy rifle and machine gun fire that no one could survive to reach the opposite bank and the boats just drifted off down the river with their dead and wounded occupants. General Crocker of the Cavalry Division was in command and I think wisely decided to withdraw and return to the river Hai. Our Brigadier Lewin was very annoyed at this and said ‘He could have crossed the damn river sliding on his arse’. As it was the whole operation was a most exhausting one, had we preserved with the crossing I do not think we would have had a sufficiently strong enough force left to hold a bridge on the opposite bank. So we returned to the Hai salient to continue our moleing operations towards the Turkish front line. In this the most nerve-wracking job was doing covering force to those who were digging the trenches; for this, you lay out in the open ahead of those digging. It was freezing cold, you had to keep still, any movement brought a burst of machine gun fire or a sniper’s bullet. The night I was wounded I was leaning over one of the sap heads asking someone below for a stretcher. A sniper about fifty yards away got me. As the bullet hit me it turned on end and tore a large lump of flesh out of my back fortunately stopping short of my spine. I was put on the stretcher I had ordered as the man for whom I wanted it was dead. This was on 17th Jan 1917….” Condition:Please see images
