Y A REGENCY BRASS MOUNTED MAHOGANY MARINE MERCURY STICK BAROMETERBARRAUDS, LONDON, CIRCA 1825With brass suspension ring above ivory plate engraved Barrauds, London and hinged rectangular door enclosing canted brass Vernier register plates annotated with the usual observations, the inside of the door applied with mercury Fahrenheit thermometer, the rectangular section trunk with gimbal pivot holes to the slightly bowed sides above ogee-turned base fitted with stepped moulded cylindrical lacquered brass cistern cover beneath, now with later brass gimbal bulkhead/wall-mount.94cm (37ins) high excluding top ring, the cistern 5.5cm (2.25ins) diameter. Paul Phillip Barraud (born 1752) worked with his father at first until his death in 1795 after which he turned his attention more towards chronometers. Using the valuable experience gained whilst working on Mudge's timekeepers with W. Howells and G. Jamieson to good effect, he became very successful. After his death in 1820 the business was continued by his sons taking John Richard Lund, a former apprentice of John Pennington (who developed the auxiliary compensation balance weight to correct for middle temperature changes), into partnership in 1838. Condition Report: Tube is filled and providing a reasonable reading; the column rises to the top when tilted with only a very small amount of air evident. The thermometer is intact and working however the tube is probably a replacement. The Vernier slide has been converted to be manually adjusted (the rack and pinion adjustment mechanism is no longer present). The scales have been polished back to brass but the engraving is still legible. The case is in sound condition with faults limited to a few bumps and scuffs most noticeably to the trunk just above the gimbals. The finish is a little flat hence would benefit from a polish; the brass work is also somewhat tarnished (the top ring is a replacement but the post appears original). As catalogued the gimbals are 20th century replacements. Condition Report Disclaimer

A FINE GEORGE III MAHOGANY BAYONET-TUBE MERCURY STICK BAROMETER WITH HYGROMETER AND THERMOMETERSAMUEL TOULMIN, LONDON, CIRCA 1775The caddy moulded case with open triangular pediment above hygrometer with independent adjustment for the beard pointer via a brass turn-screw set beneath, over inset silvered vernier scale with curved lower angles and calibrated in barometric inches to the right hand margin opposing weather observations to the left, the upper margin signed Toulmin Strand London, the trunk inset with silvered arched Fahrenheit scale mercury tube thermometer with domed brass protective cover to the bulb and decorative engraved border, the rounded base with circular moulded cistern cover and brass level adjustment screw to underside.109cm (43ins) high, 17cm (6.75ins) wide. Provenance: Property of Harry Taft Hayward (1868 - 1930) and Edith Wires (1872 - 1962) Skyring House, Worthing, and thence by descent. Samuel Toulmin is recorded in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETER MAKERS AND RETAILERS 1660-1900 as working from Strand, London 1757-83. Condition Report: Tube is present and appears intact however almost all of the mercury has gone. The cistern cover is securely fixed hence we are unable to establish whether the cistern is complete or the condition of the concealed part of the tube. The lever adjustment screw is present hence it is most likely the cistern is present but is no longer fluid-tight. The hygrometer is complete and the adjustment action is operational. The thermometer is complete, the tube filled and providing appropriate reading. The silvered scales have overall browning to their lacquer otherwise are in sound condition albeit with some very slight wear to the engraving (no doubt from previous re-silvering). The case is in sound original condition however the pediment is currently detached and is lacking the return mouldings to the sides. There is also a loss to the lower tip of the side 'corbel' moulding (to the left-hand side) as well as some wear/chips to the extremities of the mouldings in general. The trunk has some veneer shrinkage cracking to the front otherwise the case is in original relatively untouched condition with faults limited to minor bumps, scuffs, shrinkage and wear commensurate with age and use.

After resident appointments he took the D.T.M. of Liverpool in 1910 and the F.R.C.S. of England in 1911. Thereafter he had a colourful career, for after working at the Wesleyan Mission Hospital in Hankow he served as a medical officer in the Balkan War. During the Great War he was seconded to the Serbian Army and received several Serbian decorations. Afterwards he became a member of the medical staff of the League of Nations and carried out some important investigations, the most impressive being his inquiry into the severe incidence of typhus fever in Poland and Russia. He was also the author of a report on malaria in Albania. Soon after taking the D.P.H. in 1926 Haigh joined the public health staff in Derby, arriving there with a richly deserved reputation as an epidemiologist. He is remembered in Derby mainly for the organisation of the immunisation services, which he raised to a high degree of efficiency. He became deputy medical officer of health in 1941, holding this post up to his retirement in 1946. He was a man of restless energy, whose vital interests in research and quest for perfection were fully sustained. Among his many successes was the award of the Neech prize in 1930 for a thesis on the ventilation of the Derby cinemas: it was probably the first time that the kata thermometer had been used for such a purpose. Dr. Haigh had a wonderful memory and possessed great integrity, knowledge, and professional skill, and his opinions were always greatly valued. Although essentially a quiet man, he was always friendly, and without doubt he was very much liked and respected by all who knew him. His death, in Geneva on 29 November 1961, has evoked many expressions of admiration from his former colleagues.’ (the recipient’s obituary in the British Medical Journal, 13 January 1962, refers). Haigh served as a Surgeon with the Serbian Relief Fund during the Great War in Serbia from 7 March to 1 August 1915 (not entitled to a 1914-15 Star)
