Ephemera – Maritime – India large folio certificate on a single leaf of parchment with gold embellishments being a commendation issued by the Governor of Bombay to E H Orchard fifth officer on the P&O steamer Valetta’ in recognition of his gallantry in rescuing crew and passengers of the SS Sultan which foundered of Socotra in June 1897.

On its return to England it encountered unusually severe seas and was swamped leaving it adrift for two days. The Valetta came to its assistance and with great gallantry officers and men rescued who they could.

Edward and Mrs Simpson remarkable and extensive letter of a steward on the yacht Nahlin chartered by Edward and Mrs Simpson in 1936 in order to get away from public attention and scrutiny at the height of the abdication crisis. The letter written by the steward whose name appears to be Jim to his mother a Mrs Richards of Devizes provides an insight into the behaviour of the couple on board the yacht and this provides hitherto unknown information. The letter is closely written over 16pp 4to and at the end the author recommends : ...burn all this when you have read it because it is an aspect of the King that very few know about... At the height of the crisis Edward who had been King for the best part of a year chartered or borrowed a yacht belonging to Lady Yule. They took a cruise through the Mediterranean and then on to Greece and Turkey. On board were Edward and Mrs Simpson Duff Cooper Secretary for War and his wife and a few others. The letter provides a detailed description of the principle people on board. The King talks with an Oxford accent and usually stutters a little due I think to impulsiveness...in fact didn’t seem like a King... Mrs Simpson : ...is dark medium height not good looking and a very big mouth...and a very high pitched metallic American voice...you can hear her all over the place when she is around...after the first husband the second appears to have laid the way open to get her into that empty headed frivolous set that came on after the War...to such a set belonged the Prince of Wales and Lady Diana Cooper and as you see as she got more taken up by the King so did her husband gradually drop out until she divorced him a few weeks ago...it s the self made girl from Boarding House to Buckingham Palace...I don t know what the end of it will be she is now staying with the Rogers in the South of France... The letter then continues to provide descriptions of incidents on the yacht including a huge row between Edward and Mrs Simpson : ...the King had done something he shouldn t have done... and then considerable speculation on the future and the possibility of Abdication and how Edward is in effect the prisoner of the establishment and the comment about Mrs Simpson. At the head of the letter he makes one final comment : Wednesday...the latest is the King has been drinking heavily he still refuses to give up Mrs S. Mr S is supposed to have got £100 000 to agree to the divorce proceedings... The letter is accompanied by a second also very extensive (14pp folio) written after the Abdication and clearly written in 1939 shortly after War had been declared. In it he makes some remarkable comments about the War Hitler and the Spanish Civil War as well as referring to the Abdication : ...one thing the papers never gave him credit for was his honesty. He had no use for the Throne a woman would love it but not a man just dressing up having no real say in anything just being the head man in one continual circus he wanted more to live his own life and I think was one of the reasons why it was so easy for him to give it up again the present Queen always wanted the throne see how she enjoys it I doubt if the King does I expect he often thinks his brother had done the dirty on him...

Travel Journal the Journal of Captain John Henry Forrest 11th Light Dragoons covering the period October 10th 1841 to June 11th 1842 comprising approx 209 hand written folio pages bound in morocco and contained its custom made cloth bound case with gilt leather title to top cover. A particularly fine travel journal in which Forrest recalls the events of his travels with his wife through the Low Countries Prussia Switzerland South of France and from there to Genoa Naples Rome and thence back via France. Forrest is highly observant critical and complimentary commenting on the attractions of the towns and sights he sees as well as the conditions and scenery in the countryside. A particularly valuable aspect is the strong military content with details of foreign regiments barracks fortifications numbers and detailed description of uniforms weaponry and particular emphasis on the condition of cavalry regiments saddlery and horses. In this regard he makes a visit to the Waterloo battle site and meets a former Commandant in Napoleon’s personal guard who describes the conditions and reasons for the defeat in Russia and Ney’s responsibility for the defeat at Quatre Bras: ‘...[he] told me Napoleon should only have remained three days at Moscow. He described the fighting at the Bridge of Beresina... I think he said they lost 10 000 men one day by the cold...’

America 1832 a fine and extensive letter from an English settler named William Nippen to his old neighbour in England James Fuller in Axbridge Somerset dated Mandana Village Skleaneateles New York State 1832 three closely written pages folio with integral address leaf bearing a Bristol Ship Letter’ mark. A fine letter in which Nippen describes his life in America his aspirations at buying a huge faming estate and the general conditions at the time – adding ...you may buy good farms with elegant buildings .I suppose a man could buy 20 farms in 10 miles square with good buildings on hand etc which may be more convenient ...I wish my native land well but I am thankful I am out of it...’ This is understandable. In England at this time it would not have been the lot of a farmer to have had anything like the opportunity or aspiration of acquiring such wealth.
