Condition: Very good. Handwritten laid paper document. 41 x 33 cm. Watermarked with a crow over an oval with a lady seated with trident and leaf, countermarked IWickwar 1796. Document is split in two. Remnants of several seals. Penny post marks, small hole, tears in folds. Housed in folder with green spine and corners, marbled p…aper boards, cloth ties. Protected on inside by folded white paper. Norman Macleod was born on the Isle of Skye (here "Sky"). When he died in Montreal January 27, 1796, he bequeathed: £800 to his nephew, Rev. Alexander Bethune, Minister of the Gospel in Skye, and his sister Janet Macleod£100 to each of his four nieces Appointments of Rev. John Bethune, Minister in the Co. of Glengarry, Upper Canada, and Alexander Mackenzie of Montreal to carry out terms of the will.Agreement signed July 21 and 28, 1798 on Skye and Inverness by various parties and witnesses (20 signatures) includes John Macdonald, Simon Fraser, and James Grant as notaries. Verso of agreement comprised of signed affidavits and sub agreements: Alexander Tolmie, sub-lieutenant in Ulinish, Skye, executed by William B. Inglis, provost and chief magistrate of the Royal Burgh of Inverness July 13, 1798Rev. William Bethune, Kenneth MacLeod Elder and Alexander MacLeod Elder, July 1 1798 John Bethune, Joseph Maurice Lamotte, T. W. Albert (?) March 1 1799, delegating Alexander Mackenzie William Inglis was a merchant and banker in Inverness. In 1797 he was elected provost, a post he held until 1800. Provost Inglis is remembered for having entertained Robert Burns at supper at his home in September 1778. Sir Alexander Mackenzie (1764-1820) was one of Canada's greatest explorers. In two epic journeys for the North West Company in 1789 and 1793, he crossed the dense northern wilderness to reach the Arctic and Pacific Oceans. The first European to cross North America north of Mexico, he inspired later adventurers and traders, such as the famous Lewis and Clark expedition sponsored by the American military (18046). The Mackenzie River, named in his honour, symbolizes Mackenzie's important place as a pioneer and fur trader in Canadian history.Joseph Maurice Lamothe (1781-1827) was a fur trader, militia officer and Indian Department official. The Rev. John Bethune was born on Skye in 1751 and died September 23, 1815 in Williamstown, Glengarry County, aged 64. He moved to North Carolina before the American Revolution and became a man of considerable property before losing it all for his loyalty to Britain. He became Chaplain to the British Forces in Sir John Johnson's Regiment and was taken prisoner at the battle at Cross Creek in 1776. As a Loyalist he settled in Montreal in 1786 and moved to Glengarry County in 1787. He was probably the first Presbyterian minister in Upper Canada. Marrying a Swiss woman, Veronique Wadden, he became the father of six sons and three daughters, eventually becoming patriarch of a notable Canadian family connected with the fur trade, politics, medicine, law, and the church. His son John became Dean of Montreal while his son Alexander became Bishop of Toronto.

Contemporary armorial red morocco, finely gilt and signed by Jean-Édouard Niédrée. All edges gilt, gilt inner dentelle, leading edges gilt. Splendid deluxe copy of the Rouen-pr…inted reprint of the first two parts of the Duke of Sully's notorious memoirs. Here, he develops his vision of a Europe comprised of fifteen roughly equal-sized European states, under the direction of a "Very Christian Council of Europe", and possessed of a common army. This famous "Grand Design", a utopian plan for a Christian republic, is often cited as one of the first grand schemes anticipating the European Union. This Rouen edition of 1649 was precisely copied after the very scarce editio princeps, printed between 1639 and 1640 by Jacques Bouquet at Château de Sully in fewer than 400 copies. The first two parts cover the years from 1570 to 1605. The editio princeps of part III and IV was published by Augustin Courbé in Paris in 1662. - Finely copy bound by Niédrée for the Baron François-Florentin-Achille de Seillière (1813-73). - Cioranescu 63703.

Bruges, Lille, Tournai, Société Saint Augustin, session 1 (1864) - 46 (1913/14), comprénants 25 tomes. 4to.(29 cm). (tous parus / all published). Avec Table générale des Bulletins I-XXXV. Les séances 2 & 3 sont pas pa rues. Les séances 1-36 sont reliées uniformement en 14 tomes, demi veau, dos ornés, plats marbrés (tome 14 chiff…ré 'session 35', il faut lire 'sessions 35-36'). Les séances 37-46 brochées, comme parues. Avec des nombreuses planches, en couleurs et dépliantes. La collation révéle le manquant de la séance 45 (excursion en Champagne). Le dernier livraison (probablement publié en 1914) porte un avis: 'le Bulletin de la 44-ième session sera distribué très prochainement. Celui de la 45-ième session est en préparation'. En effet Session 44 a été publiée, et je pense que la Grande Guerre (éclatée en juillet 1914) a fait barrage à la publication. On ne peut pas vérifier cette supposition, parce que aucune Bibliothèque nationale consultée (Pays Bas, la Belgique, la France etc) posséde une série complète. Tome 1: manque planche VI; et seulement 3 photographies originales (sur 17). Les premiers 15 sessions sont fort rares, parce que le tirage était exclusivement pour le membres (autour de 100). Poids sur-élévé: 40 kilogrammes. On y joint: une lettre de 3 pages de Jules Helbig (datée 6 Dec. 1895), à Monsieur le Curé (abbé Balan ?), et un article de Jules Helbig dans tome 3: Les reliques et les reliquaires donnés par saint Louis roi de France au convent des dominicains de Liège. 1881.

Édition originale très rare, dite "de 1638" des Mémoires de Sully, imprimée au château de Sully. Exemplaire réglé à l?encre rouge.« Nous savons d?après un contrat conservé aux Archives nationales, signé par Sully et un imprimeur d?Auxerre, Jacques Bouquet, que Sully a imprimé ses mémoires vers la fin de sa vie entre 1638 et 1640. Une presse typographique a été amenée dans une tour du château de Sully-sur-Loire, avec laquelle Bouquet et un autre imprimeur publièrent clandestinement les Oeconomies royales. Dans le contrat, il est convenu que le tirage soit entre 300 et 1000 exemplaires ; grâce au prix pour l?impression des deux volumes (5 223 livres 8 sols), on peut établir un modeste tirage de 395 exemplaires » (Bridget Bowers).Tirée à petit nombre, cette édition fut secrètement imprimée sous la dictée du ministre au château de Sully et publiée à la fausse adresse d'Amsterdam. L'ouvrage de Sully - qui s'intitule lui-même dans le titre l'un des plus confidens, familiers & utiles soldats & Serviteurs du grand Mars des François - est un monumental document historique sur l'administration de la France entre 1570 et 1610.Marque aux 3 V au titre de chaque tome aquarellée. Les Parallèles de César et de Henry le Grand y sont bien imprimés en caractères romains, de la p. 605 à la p. 629 du tome I comme le signale Brunet.On rencontre fréquemment la contrefaçon de Rouen, sans date (1649) en 535 et 459 pp., et celle de Paris, sans date (1656), en 408 et 448 pp. L'une comme l'autre ont la particularité de reproduire à l'identique la page de titre de l'édition originale.Provenance : Pierre-Paul Laffleur de Kermaingant (1843-1920), ex-libris gravé portant les initiales PR et la devise Notre-Dame protège la France et la lignée de nos rois ; signature ancienne Milon sur les titres.Bel exemplaire.

Five of the poems in this collection by the Jamaica-born poet, documentary film-maker, author and educator Lebert Sandy Beth…une, had appeared in the 1965 issue of the influential Presence Africaine, a testament to Bethune's deep involvement in the pan-Africanism movement at the time. He is a known associate of Malcolm X, and is credited with shooting the last film and interview of Malcolm X in Paris. His documentary Malcolm X: the struggle for Freedom was released in 1967. While the work is widely held in institutions, it's scarce in the trade - signed copies even more so.

2 vol. in-folio de (12)-703 pp. et (8)-744-(1) pp., (sig. tome I, §6, A-Z4, Aa-Zz4, AAa-ZZz4, AAaa-TTtt4 ; tome II, §4, A-Z4, Aa-Zz4, AAa-ZZz4, AAaa-ZZzz4, &4), vélin souple, traces de lacets (reliure de l'époque). Édition originale très rare, dite "de 1638" des Mémoires de Sully, imprimée au château de Sully .« Nous savons d?ap…rès un contrat conservé aux Archives nationales, signé par Sully et un imprimeur d?Auxerre, Jacques Bouquet, que Sully a imprimé ses mémoires vers la fin de sa vie entre 1638 et 1640. Une presse typographique a été amenée dans une tour du château de Sully-sur-Loire, avec laquelle Bouquet et un autre imprimeur publièrent clandestinement les Oeconomies royales. Dans le contrat, il est convenu que le tirage soit entre 300 et 1000 exemplaires ; grâce au prix pour l?impression des deux volumes (5 223 livres 8 sols), on peut établir un modeste tirage de 395 exemplaires » (Bridget Bowers).Tirée à petit nombre, cette édition fut secrètement imprimée sous la dictée du ministre au château de Sully et publiée à la fausse adresse d'Amsterdam. L'ouvrage de Sully - qui s'intitule lui-même dans le titre l'un des plus confidens, familiers & utiles soldats & Serviteurs du grand Mars des François - est un monumental document historique sur l'administration de la France entre 1570 et 1610.Marque aux 3 V au titre de chaque tome, seule celle du second volume est aquarellée. Les Parallèles de César et de Henry le Grand y sont bien imprimés en caractères romains, de la p. 605 à la p. 629 du tome I comme le signale Brunet.On rencontre fréquemment la contrefaçon de Rouen, sans date (1649) en 535 et 459 pp., et celle de Paris, sans date (1656), en 408 et 448 pp. L'une comme l'autre ont la particularité de reproduire à l'identique la page de titre de l'édition originale.Exemplaire de prestigieuse provenance, puisqu'offert par le petit-fils du duc de Sully, ainsi que l'indique une note manuscrite sur la première garde de chaque volume : Ce livre m'a été donné par Monsieur le Duc de Sully, petit-fils de l'autheur. À Paris ce 30e xbre 1643. Salvaing de Boissieu.Note sur la page de titre du tome I : Premier n°37 ; au tome II Seconde Dernier du n°37. Denys de Salvaing de Boissieu (1600-1683) fut magistrat, conseiller du roi en ses conseils et premier président de la Chambre des comptes du Dauphiné. Sa bibliothèque figurait parmi les plus belles et les plus riches de la province. Après sa mort, elle fut conservée selon sa volonté puis transportée au château de Sassenage où ses livres dormirent pendant deux siècles. En 1897, l?avant dernier marquis de Bérenger, qui en avait hérité, la fit vendre aux enchères à Grenoble ; on y trouve sous le numéro 936 la notice de cet exemplaire.Exemplaire complet, mais atteint au premier tome de traces de mouillures angulaires, et au tome II d'importantes traces de mouillures.Brunet, V, 589 ; Rahir, Bibliothèque de l'amateur, 649 ; Catalogue d'une importante bibliothèque composée d'ouvrages anciens, rares et précieux. Ancienne bibliothèque de D. de Salvaing de Boissieu (1897), n°936.

1 lettre autographe signée 2 In-12 vers 1888 Avec une carte de visite autographe : «Mon cher ami, on jouera du Rollinat au violon à mon atelier du 112 bd Malesherbes, vendredi à 9h. Faites-moi donc l'amitié de venir tous deux. Veston et bandeaux à la vierge !». bon Gaston Béthune rectifie les termes de la dépêche qu'il a adressé…e à Gouzien, et précise sa demande : «2 miens amis, de passage à Paris, brûlent d'entendre le Roi d'Ys [opéra d'Edouard Lalo, créé triomphalement en 1888]. Au bureau on leur a répondu lundi, pour vendredi, que tout était pris ; tandis que dehors des camelots offrent effrontément des places 3 et 4 f. le prix de location. Puisque c'est de votre compétence, quel moyen s'il vous plait, d'avoir 2 places pour vendredi, même en payant ! [.]». Peintre de paysages, aquarelliste, élève de Bonnat.
