Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. 120pp., 12mo. Variable wormtrack in the upper margin occasionally affecting a single letter, the text perfectly clear, a few minor stains. Original blind-ruled sheep; worn with the joints split, but holding quite firmly on the binder s two sawn-in thongs. Loosely inserted is a trimmed impression of the book s subsequent, cancel title: "The Sacred Miscellany: or, Poems on Divine Subjects," this dated 1734. First edition, with a preliminary dedication "To the Youth of Great Britain": "In these loose and dangerous Times, wherein Atheists, Deists, Blasphemers, Arians, Socinians, Infidels, are so numerous and impudent. . . ." The work was clearly not a success, and was reissued the following year with the simpler title cited above. John Sitter, in The Cambridge Introduction to Eighteenth-Century Poetry (2011), p. 19, quotes Hallows to illustrate the difference between good and bad heroic couplets: Hallows s lines "are tolerably regular, end-stopped, and easily understood, but they are intolerably plodding. . . ." Foxon, English Verse 1701-1750, p. 323, records copies at the Bodleian Library and Winchester College, the former being a "presentation copy. . . with ms. corrections," and a single copy of the 1734 reissue at the British Library. ESTC, OCLC, and COPAC add one more copy, at All Souls, Oxford. Signed by Author(s).

First American Edition. Signed by Max Nordau with a revealing inscription dealing with anti-Semitism: ÒThis play is called Doctor Kohn in the German original. The American editor insisted upon the change of title, alleging, an outspoken Jewish name would have a repulsing effect on the American reader and buyer. This shows remarkably an American publishers judgment of the degree of racial prejudice among his countrymen. Paris, May 3d, 1909, Dr. M. Nordau.Ó Max Nordau was a Hungarian-born doctor who settled in Paris in 1880, where he because a best-selling author, not for his controversial works of social and artistic criticism, and was a co-founder with Theodore Herzl of the Zionist Movement. Nordau helped draft the Basle Program at the first Zionist Congress in 1897, and played a major role in subsequent congresses. This book is the first translation in English which was originally published in German in 1898, and it concerns the question of intermarriage of Jews and Christians. Bookplate of writer Stephen Caplin. Very good plus to near fine copy in decorated gilt-stamped cloth. A remarkable copy.

No. 1 - Thomas RANKINE, founder of the biscuit factory on Mill St. was born in Kincardine, Scotland in 1803, learned his trade within sight of Stirling Castle, removed to this Province in 1822 and at once set to work in the bakery of Edmund KIRK on Cooper's Alley, now Church St. near the site now owned by Geo. A. KNODELL. Mr. Rankine was a man of great physical strength. It is related that it was no uncommon feat for him in the early days to shoulder a barrel of flour at Peter's wharf and carry it to the bakery in Cooper's Alley without any appearance of fatigue. Some time in 1824 he formed a partnership with Mr. BERRYMAN and they bought the business of Mr. Kirk which they continued for two years when they separated. Mr. Rankine established himself on Union St. where he remained until 1826 when he located on the spot now occupied by his successors. Single sheet folded to make 4 pages with script on 3 pages. Wave cut and paper seals and with signatures on page 3.
