Both items in good condition, on lightly-aged paper. Neither is signed by Langham. ONE: Agreement with Coward, 1892. 1p., foolscap 8vo. On vellum paper with red embossed tax stamp. 'I Walter Hastings Coward hereby bind myself to disclose to Herbert Hay Langham all Chrome Ore or Chromium Mine that I may discover or otherwise acquire any right or share to or that I may have at present discovered or otherwise have acquired any right or share in the Island of Madeira'. Other undertakings by Coward include one to 'visit the said Island of Madeira for the purpose of getting samples on a first Shipment of such' and one not to 'sell or otherwise part with in any manner any property or share or interest in any rights or licenses in connection with any Mind, Mines or Deposits of Chromium or Chrome Ore in the said Island of Madeira'. For his part, Langham, 'agrees to pay the costs of the said Walter Hastings Coward visiting the said Island such visit to be made at such time as the said Herbert Hay Langham shall require'. Signed: 'Walter Hastings Coward', with a deletion initialed by him 'W. H. C.' At foot of page: 'Writers | Henry Lattey | 24 Cornhill. E.C. | Solr'. See The Times, 21 August and 15 September 1893 for Coward's guilty-plea to a charge of obtaining £1500 by false pretences, for which he was sentenced to 18 months hard labour. TWO: Agreement with Donaldson, 1895. Signed 'James Donaldson' and in his hand. 1p., foolscap 8vo. On ruled paper, with red 6d 'Postage and Revenue' stamp.

A photo album belonging to brothers Ruben (18921984) and Daniel (18951969) Diener, documenting their 19161917 journey to the Territory of Alaska. The newspaper clipping reproduces a letter from Dan Diener, describing their time there: "I went with an old prospector to try and locate a lost mine. We found it, but there was not enough gold to pay for mining it, so in that respect our trip was a failure. [.] I lived in a tent with a small sheet iron stove during all this time and strange as it seems it was fairly comfortable. [.] One day I walked, or snowshoed, 30 miles for my mail when the thermometer was 58 below. [.] But the hardships were sweetened at times with the most beautiful scenery man can imagine." (March 1917) The Dieners' trip took them to Alaska's southern coast, to Ketchikan, Cordova, Valdez, and Seward. There are some identifiable ships, including the Admiral Farragut, the Mariposa (shortly before its sinking), and the wreck of the James Drummond in British Columbia. Subjects include Chief Johnson's totem pole in Ketchikan, erected in 1902 in honor of Chief Gut Wain (George Johnson; d. 1938) of the Gaanaxadi clan of the Tongass tribea real photo postcard from Kasaan shows many brightly colored totem poles along the shore, with dilapidated wooden houses behind themboats filled with fish outside the Carlisle Packing Company in Cordova, and a real photo postcard of a man and dog captioned "READY FOR THE SUMMER TRAIL / SEWARD ALASKA" on the back of which Ruben Dieners has written: "Oct 9, 1916. Here you are. This is Judge Hildreth of whom we have written you. Our best friend here, and hereafter. We are going prospecting with him next spring. The dog in the picture carry's fifty pounds. Brother Ruben." H.H. Hildreth was a district court commissioner in Seward, editor of the Alaskan newspaper in Sitka and The Alaska Prospector in Valdez, and secretary of the Matanuska Mining Company. The shots of towns show the development of the region: in some, an area of forest has been recently cleared, and stumps of trees might surround a few small wooden houses or platforms where houses are to be erected; while others show towns with telegraph lines, graded dirt roads with sidewalks, dense housing, and railroad and tram lines. Two shots from Seward show the paved sidewalk of its main street with a hotel and bars, and a dog team waiting outside the hardware store. As Dieners wrote, they lived in a tent, and several photos show the outside of the quarters: two semi-permanent canvas tents next to a wide wooden walkway. Others show men, presumably the brothers, snowshoeing, hiking, and riding in a canoe; and, of course, many are scenery shots of forests, waterfalls, and snowcapped mountains. Of interest to historians of post-gold rush Alaska. Overall excellent to Near Fine. Photo album measuring 7 ¼ x 11 ½ inches, containing 187 photos (2 unaffixed) and five loose real photo postcards, with a contemporaneous newspaper clipping. Photos approximately 3 x 4 inches, with generally excellent contrast and in Near Fine condition.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Fundamentals of Horizontal Wellbore Cleanout delivers the latest methods regarding effective sand cleanout tools in horizontal wellbores. Providing the most relevant information, including sand bed formation, sand settling velocity, friction and hydraulics, this book covers the most effective tools and emerging technologies. Sections discuss the settling characteristics of sand and the effects of particle shape and size on drag coefficients, along with models for drag coefficients using experimental data. Numerical studies on sand transport efficiency as well as prediction models of sand concentration and an evaluation of friction between pipe and sand bed are also included. Illustrative case studies include cleanout with varying nozzle assemblies leading to optimum design on operation procedures, bottomhole assembly, and other lessons learned from known field experience. Rounding out with future research on cost-saving strategies including CO2 used as a washing fluid in water-sensitive formations, Fundamentals of Horizontal Wellbore Cleanout gives today's petroleum and drilling engineers alternative methods to hole cleaning in today's horizontal wells. 252 pp. Englisch.
