Cumberland.- Satterthwaite (Rev James, son of Lieutenant-Colonel James Clarke, of Papcastle, Cockermouth, Cumberland, educated at Eton, St John's College, Trinity College and Jesus College, Cambridge, Fellow of Jesus College, 1795-1806, Chaplain to George III in 1814, Rector of Bootle, later Rector of Lowther, Westmorland, friend of Christopher Wordsworth, 1773-1827) Copies of Cases Submit[t]ed to Counsel by the Executors of the Rev Dr Satterthwaite, manuscript documents, legal opinions and letters, c. 280pp. (31pp. printed Act of Parliament), in various hands, many items folding, original half morocco, gilt morocco label on upper cover, corners bumped, folio, 1828-30.⁂ Documents concerning various transactions relating to Cockermouth and other areas in Cumberland made by James Clarke Satterthwaite and his son James Satterthwaite.(1). In the Exchequer. Hamilton and another v Blendall and others. Bill and Answers. "The Borough of Cockermouth... All these four Messuages... situate in Cockermouth... adjoining to Derwent Bridge...", 1828.(2). Copy of James Satterthwaite's Will, 1830.(3). To the Commissioners appointed in & by an Act of Parliament... intitled "An Act for inclosing Lands in the Borough and Township of Cockermouth in the County of Cumbd", 1813.(4). J.C. Satterthwaite Esqre to John Dalyell... To the Grassing of one Mare and foal..., n.d.(5). Cockermouth Inclosure, 1822.James Satterthwaite was educated at Eton and Jesus College, Cambridge, where he became a Fellow. He became a rector successively, of Whicham, 1804-14, Bootle, 1807-13, Lowther, 1813-27, and Aikton, 1814-27, all in Cumberland and Westmorland. In 1811 Wordsworth visited Black Combe Fell and wrote the poem, Written with a Slate Pencil, on a Stone, on the Side of the Mountain of Black Comb, while William Mudge and a party of surveyors used the mountain as a triangulation point. It has been suggested that Satterthwaite "had the particulars" about the Ordnance Survey's project "from one of the engineers who was employed in making trigonometrical surveys of the region". Wordsworth and Satterthwaite met during the Bootle holiday in 1811 and, Wyatt suggests, the latter was likely to have been Wordsworth's source of contextual information for the Black Combe inscription. Satterthwaite also corresponded with William Henry Fox Talbot over his method of drying plants. Satterthwaite, through his father had a close connection with the Earl of Lonsdale and the Lowther family who presented him to several livings including Lowther Rectory.

Property of Peter Ardronc.1938 BMW R12 750cc Motorcycle CombinationRegistration no. EOR 189Frame no. 11187Engine no. 36067• Imported into the UK in 1944• Ex-German Army• Present ownership since 2014• Expertly restored with no expense spared (completed 2017)This wonderful R12 motorcycle combination belongs to Peter Ardon, a well-known and highly respected enthusiast within the BMW community (Peter helped restore/commission the 1941 BMW R12 that was sold by Bonhams in 2022). Restoring these older BMWs has always been his passion and he probably has more experience of working on them than anyone else in the UK. Indeed, he founded and ran for several years an international vintage BMW club.'EOR 189' was first registered in the UK in 1944, but BMW have confirmed the October 1938 date of manufacture for the frame and its delivery as part of an R12 to the Army Ordnance Office in Munich. The engine came from another R12 delivered in September 1941 to the Luftzeugamt Küpper (Luftzeugamt = civilian Air Office). BMW's dating letter is on file. It is quite likely that the R12 was a war trophy brought back by a British officer during WW2. The BMW has had six previous owners, the last of whom owned it for over 50 years. He confirmed he had not painted the machine and did not believe it had been repainted since importation. It was covered in a thick, oil based black paint. The story passed down with the machine is that the importer painted over the German Army colours with household black to make it less objectionable in wartime Britain. The original Army colour was still visible underneath the black but was beyond restoration. Peter decided that as the bike had been painted black since (probably) 1944, then restoring it in civilian colours better reflected its history than a return to German Army Grey. Dream Machine of Nottingham were entrusted with most of the repaint. Peter bought this R12 nine years ago and restored it with no expense spared purely for his own use. It has had everything done that it could possibly need, including sending the frame to RRC Tuning in Germany, R12 specialists and the only company in Europe with the experience and tooling necessary to straighten it to as-new tolerances. RRC were also entrusted with the electrical rebuilds, etc and they and Mark Huggett supplied most of the spares. None of the cheap, poorer-quality spares which are available from Poland and elsewhere have been used.One minor gearbox component (which does not in any way affect reliability or how it runs) was not available during the rebuild but comes with the bike should the next owner wish to fit it. Only Peter's ill health has prevented it from fitting it himself. No expense was spared in the rebuild, and Peter says that the machine runs even better than it looks. Purists will spot some reproduction parts but these are all minor, and it is doubtful there is a more practical R12 in the country. The sidecar is brand new and is a quality reproduction of an original Steib. With practicality and stopping-power in mind, Peter has fitted a brake (easily removed) to the sidecar. Poor health has meant that Peter has been unable to use the BMW as intended (he has only managed some 3,500 kilometres) and that is the only reason he is selling it now. The R12 last ran in August 2023. Accompanying documentation consists of Peter's purchase receipt; a photocopy of an old-style continuation logbook (issued 1952); a current V5C Registration Certificate; and numerous receipts for new spares.Footnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
