Robinson, who married into the Pease family, was an engineer who worked for the Stockton and Darlington Railway from 1858, later setting up his own offices near North Road Station in Darlington. He surveyed the Stockton-Middlesbrough-Saltburn Railway as well as the Barnard Castle and Stanhope Railways. In the 1860`s he designed and built the first bridge over the River Brisbane in Australia and, closer to home, the cart bridge over the Tees at Hurworth. He was also involved in bank strengthening at Blackwell and the construction of the Teesdale reservoirs. manuscript in two folio notebooks (covers well worn), a randomly selected day reads; Thursday August 25th 1859 Up at 5.40. Breakfast. Off by train at 6 to Middlesbrough. J.Ianson with me. Fixed position of frame for Creosote cylinder door. Made survey of rails and gateway to Snowdon and Hopkin`s works. Done. Looked at Staith. Off to get some breakfast at Crown Hotel. Off home 11 train. Went to Hope Town Foundry to see Hudson about some of the iron work. Down to office. Began to plot survey. Finished at 6.30. Went with Sam Rutter to have hair cut then I went to baths and had cold bath and plunge. Home. Read a little of Cassell`s paper and phrenology. Looked a good many words out. I forgot to mention that I had a narrow escape from being killed this morning in going to the station. There was a long train of wagons standing with the engine to them. A guard wanted to be across the way at the same time so we both got on to each a wagon to cross it just as I got on to mine the engine moved on and gave the wagon a jerk and nearly threw me down between two wagons and on the rail. I just had presence of mind to seize hold of the side of wagon as I was going consequently stopped myself. Otherwise I would have gone directly across the rail and been cut in two by the next wagon before the engine could be stopped. I have learned a lesson from that never to cross a wagon which is likely to move unless I find it very needful and then only in the middle. To bed 10.30. Very fine and hot day. [The lot is sold with a typescript of the diaries on CD]

Florence Nightingale: A letter written by Florence Nightingale in pencil to the Liverpool merchant and philanthropist William Rathbone, together with accompanying envelope addressed `Wm. Rathbone Esq. 46 Euston Square` and accompanying note in ink: `The self-denying, sympathyzing [sic], kind and benevolent Florence Nightingale written in pencil, sitting in bed, during her serious illness Dec 1868`, the three items glazed in Hogarth frame. The letter, on 8vo mourning paper, headed `35 South Street Park Lane W`, reads: `Dec 11/68 Dear Mr Rathbone, At 3.30 I would gladly see you, for a few minutes, if you wish to see me about the Workhouse (Hospital Nursing) and about Mr Worthington`s plans. But if you could [bade??] me the plans to look over carefully, that would be the only way in which I could possibly be of any use to you - and I would return them in a day or two. Ever yours most truly F.Nightingale` When Rathbone`s first wife Lucretia was dying in 1859, the care given by a nurse, prompted him to campaign for a system of district nursing to enable the poor to benefit from similar care. The involvement of Florence Nightingale led to a close friendship. Correspondence between the two is well documented, and examples from 1868, the year of his election as an MP for Liverpool are held at the Liverpool Record Office, though this example is believed unrecorded.
