Peter Barrett (British, B. 1935) "Morgan Horse" Signed lower left. Original Watercolor painting on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the U.S. 22c Morgan Horse stamp issued September 25, 1985. Unlike most American horses which have developed from the crossing of breeds, the Morgan Horse is descended from a single sire of incredible strength and merit. This horse was originally named Figure, but is perhaps better known as Justin Morgan -- the name of his second owner who received the horse as payment for a debt around 1795. The origins of this amazing horse are obscure, and will probably never be known. Some claim that the original Morgan Horse was the offspring of a famous Thoroughbred racer and a Wildair mare. Others claim he was descendant of a Welsh Cob with a mixture of Thoroughbred blood. Whatever his origins, the truth is that he was truly one of the world's most remarkable horses. Although he was renowned for his strength and endurance, Justin Morgan's horse was relatively small, standing only a little more than 4-1/2 feet tall and weighing around eight hundred pounds. Used by his owner to pull the plough to plant crops, clear fields and pull heavy loads, this one small horse literally worked from sunrise until dusk. When not working in the fields, Justin Morgan matched his incredible horse in weight-pulling contests so demanding that it was a miracle a horse his size could move such heavy loads. In addition, Justin Morgan's horse was raced under saddle and harness -- never to be beaten. The qualities of this one amazing horse were carried on in his offspring which resulted in the establishment of a new breed. Image Size: 12 x 10 in. Overall Size: 18.5 x 16.25 in. Unframed. (B09724)

I wish he had given lessons to other prophets...'), 4 pages, some foxing and rust stains where previously clipped together, small hole to one page not affecting text, 8vo (180 x 115mm.), King's College, Cambridge, 19 November and 30 November 1953; Where Angels Fear to Tread, FIRST EDITION, PRESENTATION COPY, inscribed 'R.B.S. from E.M.F./ 4/10/05' on the half-title, with a pencil note 'There is a beautiful sentence on page 161 which makes me love you' in another hand on the title, William Blackwood, 1905; The Hill of Devi, FIRST EDITION, PRESENTATION COPY, inscribed 'This last Indian snippet: with affectionate remembrances to Honor and yourself from Morgan, October 1953' on the front free endpaper, photographic plates, Edward Arnold, 1953; Howards End, FIRST EDITION, ownership inscription (Nov. 1910) on front free endpaper, Edward Arnold, 1910; Collected Short Stories, bookplate of R. Barkeley Smith, Sidgwick and Jackson, [1947], publisher's cloth, rubbed, some fading, 8vo (6)Footnotes:'THE LAST INDIAN SNIPPET WITH AFFECTIONATE REMEMBRANCES' - Correspondence and books inscribed to Rupert Barkeley Smith (1883-1970).E.M. Forster met Barkeley Smith, an Oxford undergraduate destined for the Indian Civil Service, whilst on an Aegean cruise at Easter 1903. Despite widely different approaches to life, they initially enjoyed a close relationship, Forster visiting Smith in Oxford and taking walking trips together, with Forster hoping for something more; in his journal for 22 December 1907 he writes '...I wish he cared for fooling... It is impossible to proceed further...' (Ed. P. Gardner, Journals & Diaries of E.M. Forster, 2011, vol. 1). By the time Smith returned on leave from India in 1912, however, Forster gives the impression that their friendship had cooled, writing in his journal '...He was trying, & no doubt tired. But he keeps the curious belief that we are in sympathy...' (10 May 1912).Despite this, whilst Assistant Magistrate in Allahabad, it was Smith who facilitated Forster's trip to India in 1913 organising accommodation, servants and hospitality and, on one memorable occasion, inviting him to an annual bathing fair. On the way they visited the Buddhist sites of Buddh Gaya and caves in the Barabar Hills, later to be used as the model for the Marabar Caves in A Passage to India. Smith's attitudes, however, did not leave Forster with a favourable impression of the British in India, something which would colour his characterisations in the novel and leaving him feeling rather depressed: '...Four years in India had left their mark on Smith. He was curt and insolent in Court, wouldn't speak a word to Forster's friend Ahmed Mirza when he came to lunch, and seemed, like his 'civilian' companions, to dislike every class of Indian except the peasant...' (P.N. Furbank, E M Forster: A Life, 1978, vol.1, p.249). When the book came out in 1924, Smith took offence at the portrayal not only as a slur on the Indian Civil Service as a whole, but as a personal affront since, he believed, the Turtons' house in the novel bore too close a resemblance to his own bungalow in Agra: '...different readers took every possible different view as to the fairness of his treatment of Indian problems. Some Tory-minded readers were incensed at the book... Rupert Smith wrote him a violent letter, more or less breaking off their friendship...' (Furbank, vol. 2, p.125). By the 1950's, RBS and Forster were reconciled sufficiently for Forster to send him the fondly inscribed copy of his Indian memoirs, The Hill of Devi, but the relationship never properly recovered, Forster admitting in 1963, '...I want to spend myself in writing to people who are on the margin of my heart. Letter to RBS has gone...' (Journal, 15 August 1963).These letters are not listed in Mary Lago's Calendar of the Letters of E.M. Forster, neither are they published in the Selected Letters. They have been retained by Rupert Barkeley Smith's descendants until now.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
