Clandestine Marriage.- Gally (Henry) Some Considerations upon Clandestine Marriages, second edition, light water-staining at beginning, modern marbled boards, by J.Hughs, 1750 § Leman (Sir Tanfield) Matrimony Analysed. Wherein is Proposed a Free and Candid Inquiry into the Force of the Objections against the late Act of Parliament for the better preventing Clandestine Marriages, only edition, lacking half-title, book-label of Charles Clark of Great Totham, Essex to verso of title with ink correction (?in his hand) to final leaf, a little browned, title torn at inner margin and mounted on stub, old roan-backed boards, rebacked, for H.Whatridge, 1755 § [Fry (John)] The Case of Marriages between near kindred particularly considered...with some Observations relating to the late Act to prevent Clandestine Marriages, first edition, lightly browned, modern calf-backed boards, morocco label, J.Whiston & B.White, 1756 § Stebbing (Henry) A Dissertation on the Power of States to Deny Civil Protection to the Marriages of Minors made without the Consent of their Parents or Guardians, first edition, half-title, modern marbled boards, C.Davis, 1755 § [Forster (Nathaniel)] Remarks on the Reverend Dr Stebbing's Dissertation..., first edition, modern marbled boards, J. & P.Knapton, 1755, 8vo (5)⁂ Lord Hardwicke's Marriage Act of 1753, or An Act for the better preventing of clandestine marriage, was the first statutory legislation in England and Wales to require a formal ceremony of marriage. The Act had been precipitated by a dispute about the validity of a Scottish marriage, although pressure to address the problem of clandestine marriage had been growing for some time, as indicated by Gally's pamphlet. Until that time neither prior notice nor parental consent for minors was required for marriage but the Act ordered the reading of banns in church, parents' or guardians' consent for minors, and the service to be conducted by an Anglican clergyman. Henceforth couples had to travel to Scotland in order to marry, the nearest place being Gretna Green just north of Carlisle.

Rogers set out from Bristol with William Dampier as his pilot, travelling along the coasts of Chile and Peru to seek out Spanish prizes. He landed on the Juan Fernandez islands in order to shelter from a storm, and there rescued the marooned Alexander Selkirk, the inspiration for Defoe's Robinson Crusoe.

Churchill (Sir Winston Spencer) The Unrelenting Struggle, third edition, signed by the author on endpaper, plates, silk endpapers, original black morocco, very light fading to spine, light rubbing to spine tips and corners, [Woods A89], 8vo, 1943.⁂ A signed copy of Churchill's speeches in the publisher's presentation binding. This volume and those in the following 3 lots bear a marked similarity to the sets of The Second World War that were specially-bound by the publisher for presentation. These however appear rarer than those sets (themselves scarce) and are unrecorded by Woods. It seems likely therefore that these are among a very small number bound at Churchill's request for presentation. We can trace only a handful of like examples of these speeches in such a binding, all are either presentation copies or from Chartwell House library.
