CONTINENTAL BLOCKADE: On 16th May 1806, England declared the blockade of all French coasts on the Atlantic Ocean, North Sea. In retaliation, Napoleon signed the Berlin decree, 21st November 1806, declaring the British islands under continental blockade. The English responded with the decree signed by King Georges III, referred to in the present letter, 11th November 1807, obliging any neutral vessel to pay rights to the British customs, and a month later Napoleon signed the Milan decree stating that any vessel paying such rights to the British would be considered an enemy and would be arrested. An excellent selection of five documents related to the continental blockade, comprising GEORGE III (1738-1820) King of the United Kingdom 1760-1820. D.S., George R., at the heading, one page, large folio, St-James´s Court, 13th April 1808, to Lubbock & Co. The partially printed document, signed by George III as King, is a Royal patent permitting for six months that their vessels could move from Cadiz, Ayamonte and Sanlucar in Spain, to London´s port, with the wine and other cargoes authorized to be imported according to the 11th November 1807 decree, and won´t be affected by the blockade which only applies vessels with weapons and war material cargoes. Countersigned by Robert Jenkinson, 2nd Earl of Liverpool (1770-1828) British Prime Minister 1812-27, and Secretary of State for war 1809-12.

The Emperor of the French and King of Italy ,instruct that justice will be given and taxes received in his name. He will sequester all English warehouses..´ and Mortier annotates in his hand `You will make your troops stop and sleep in Hannover.. I will join the 8th Corp at Ulzen. I intend to cross the Elbe the 18th or 19th… Colonel Clement must keep his mission secret.´. In the second letter Mortier states in part `According to the orders I have received from H.M. the Emperor, all kinds of communication with England must be defended, all English goods, whoever they belong to, must be confiscated, and all English arrested and sent to France. The navigation on the Elbe and Weser rivers forbidden to any nation..´. Mortier insists once more on Napoleon´s orders on the third letter and states `The Emperor orders repeat and insist on the strict execution of his decree related to the continental blockade … His Majesty´s wish is that no English cargo can go through Altona, nor Hamburg, nor any other location…No English good, nor colonial ones can go through, All letters to England, written by English, must be confiscated..´ In the last two letters Mortier keeps on sending the orders received by Napoleon, all related to the continental blockade.

Gron Edwards signed Norwegian Patrol hardback book. Signed on the inside title page by the author. Gron' Edwards joined the RAF in 1936 on a Short Service Commission and went solo on his eighteenth birthday. After gaining his wings he joined No 233 General Reconnaissance Squadron of Coastal Command based at Thornaby in Yorkshire. The aircraft he flew was the Avro Anson, a small twin engine aircraft that was originally designed for civilian use but had been hastily modified with the addition of two machine guns and a 280lb bomb load. Before the outbreak of war the squadron was moved to Leuchers. Early in 1939, Coastal Command crews were ordered to ferry some Blenheim twin-engined bombers to Middle East Command and Gron was selected as a navigator for the flight to Egypt. Upon landing in Egypt they found that they had set a record time of 33 hours, 3 hours less than Imperial Airways. 233 Squadron were re-equipped with the Lockheed Hudson, a larger aircraft that enabled reconnaissance patrols along the Norwegian coast. In April 1940, as they were approaching the Norwegian coast, Gron spotted a Heinkell 115. He attacked from astern and damaged the aircraft. Although very nearly flying into the sea. Patrols continued, searching for German capital ships hiding in the Fiords. During the first five months of the Norwegian campaign 233 Squadron suffered 35% casualties, even 50% on one shipping strike. Gron was awarded the DFC for his part in this operation. After becoming short-sighted and night-blind Gron was given a brief respite and then posted to the Navigational School at Cranage in Cheshire and a little later qualified as a Specialist Armament Officer. In September 1944 he sailed for Bombay and then travelled overland to Maniur, 500 miles north-east of Imphal. Gron took the job of Armament Officer of No 221 Group, a close-support fighter bomber group of about 20 squadrons attached to the 14th Army. With the Japanese in retreat the group moved to Indianggye in Burma. Gron commanded the RAF advance party. During his service there he was Mentioned in Despatches. Good Condition.
