First & only edition. 8vo. Decorated cloth with leather corners, two leather spine labels, and raised bands, 300 pp. with every entry dated and printed in ink. All 300 pages are full to completion as Reverend Watson recounts his dreams. The 300 page diary covers the years 1919 to 1941 and provides a unique and sometimes disturbing glimpse into his thoughts and mind. The dreams, as described, range from typical dreams that any person may have, although a number are about his brother, and others are horrific nightmares and the surrealistic. On July 4, 1919, he vividly describes a nightmare; on July 23, 1919 he recounts a horrible dream about a jealous husband; on March 29, 1921 a political dream; on March 21, 1923 a sea dream; on Feb. 4, 1924 he visits his old home town in his dream; on January 22, 1927 a dream that with his brother they visit a cemetery in Cincinnati; and much, much more. Orville Ernest Watson was born in Westfield Center, Ohio, on December 1, 1857, the son of Joseph Watson, a physician, and his wife Eliza (or Ella) Jane Mills. Orville's three siblings were Clarence, Minnie, and Jessie. The Watson family moved to Cardington, Ohio, before 1870, and Orville Watson graduated from Ohio Wesleyan University in 1882. After working as a businessman in Cardington, he entered Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio, as a theology student in 1889. Following his graduation in 1892, he moved to Cleveland, Ohio, where he was assistant rector for Trinity Episcopal Church. He eventually returned to Gambier, Ohio, where he died on May 17, 1951. Bookplate of Orville Ernest Watson on front pastedown sheet, leather corners lightly rubbed, and covers lightly soiled, else interior clean, neat and solid. Overall a very good, tight copy.…

First edition. 4to. 265x210mm. pp. iv, 764, [10, index]. Ten engraved plates (frontispiece portrait of the author and a further nine). The verso of the second leaf of preliminaries is numbered vi. Some foxing in places but otherwise, internally very good with the plates in excellent condition. Handsomely bound in slightly later red straight-grained morocco, upper and lower covers decorated with two double fillet borders in gilt enclosing a continuous "drawer-handle" design in blind and framing a continuous swag and drop border in blind. Spine with five double raised bands, decorated in gilt and blind and lettered in gilt to the second and fifth compartment. Edges of the boards decorated in gilt. Turn-ins decorated in gilt with a wavy dotted line and ears of wheat with a flower motif in the corners. All edges gilt. The binding is of a very high standard. It is unsigned but the tooling and overall design conforms to the work of the German emigré binders and we would tentatively attribute the binding to either Christian Kalthoeber or John Bohn and date it to the 1790s or the very early years of the 1800s. A previous owner has inscribed the verso of the front free endpaper "Bound by Edwards of Halifax (??)". This seems unlikely but it is possible, given the subject matter of the book and the links between Edwards and the German emigré binders that this copy did pass through Edwards's hands. John Watson (1723-1783) was that perfect eighteenth-century combination of clergyman and antiquary. He was the curate of Halifax between 1750 and 1754 and retained links with the town throughout his life. Starting with Druidical remains and moving through Roman affairs, Watson brings the reader up to the eighteenth century. He covers the history of Halifax and provides details of the main buildings in the town as well as exploring fascinating byways such as "Remarks on the Dialect of Halifax","Vocabulary of Uncommon Words used in Halifax" and "A Catalogue of Plants Growing in the Parish of Halifax". …
