Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition, Illustrated Edition. This is a rare, first edition copy of "THE BARON'S YULE FEAST - A Christmas Rhyme" by Thomas Cooper, The Chartist. 1846 1st edition; Jeremiah How; London. Nicely bound in three-quarter leather with marbled covers, gilt lettering and decorations on the spine, and marbled page edges on all sides of the text block. Illustrated title page with a couple in-text drawings. Smaller in size - the book measures 6 3/4" tall x 4 1/4" wide. The book was likely influenced by the Victorian era's growing romanticization of Christmas, a cultural trend significantly shaped by Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" published a few years earlier in 1843. From a review: "The 'Baron's Yule Feast' is, the author states, ''a metrical essay, composed chiefly of imperfect and immature pieces,' some of them written 'many years ago' but which have no doubt been more or less touched in adapting them to the purposes of a poetical Christmas entertainment. The scene of the poem is laid in the baron's hall of Torksey, in Lincolnshire, which is revived with all the festivities of a Christmas of the olden time. Opportunity is here afforded for the introduction of various songs or narratives in the ballad style. Passing over these, there are a few lines, the concluding ones of the poem, that arrest the reader's attention, and which are calculated to awaken an echo in the breasts of but too many of the people of England." Condition: Some rubbing to the marbled paper over the boards; a small bit of the top paper layer has peeled away at the right edge of the front cover. Light rubbing to the leather along the edges of the spine. Bright gilt lettering and decorations on the spine. Tight binding with no cracks and no loose pages. Both covers are firmly attached. Nice interior - the pages are mostly clean with only some occasional mild foxing (though a bit heavier on the front and rear end papers and pastedowns). Light shelf wear along the perimeter of the boards. Overall the book is in Very Good- condition.…

2pp., 4to. Bifolium. In very good condition, on lightly-aged paper, with minor evidence of previous mounting. Apparently addressing an autograph hunter, she writes: 'I beg to forward you a specimen of my "pothooks and hangers" trusting you will "admire" if you honestly can. Believe I have pleasure in gratifying your request and am with truth my dear | Ever yours faithfully | Eliza Cook'. The poem, also signed 'Eliza Cook', is four lines long, titled 'Impromptu on being told the death of my Mother would leave a scar on my heart', beginning 'That stroke indeed would deeply gash'. There is no indication that the poem was published. In her biography of Cushman ('When Romeo Was A Woman', 2000) Lisa Merrill claims that the two women were lovers. See Scan.…

Dobell is not named, but the second letter contains a reference to the recipient's wife 'Mrs. Dobell'. Both letters 2pp., 12mo, and both in good condition, on lightly aged paper. ONE: 21 August 1895. Signed 'G. J. Harney.' He makes an order of books from the library of George Augustus Sala, of whom he 'cannot profess to be an admirer': 'clever, versatile, a typical journalist; but not of the stuff of Cobbett, Wooler, Hone (before he became a melancholy mad religious crank) or Hetherington or Hunt (John). Of his books I would have liked two or three but must not order (Mahaffy's "Social Life in Greece") (Stepniak's "Russia")'. He asks whether 'apart from their politics' there is any merit to 'these songs of Alex Rogers, Glasgow weaver'. He describes his health: 'I am miserable with pain[.] I can just manage the hand to a level with this paper; but cannot raise either to top of my head. In taking food instead of lifting the hand to the mouth I have to bring the mouth down to the hand. I expect to get worse and worse while this hot weather continues.' He has 'the gloomiest apprehensions', and asks him not to let him get into his debt. TWO: 12 September 1895. Signed 'G. Julian Harney'. In deferring a meeting he describes the state of his health ('throat irritation'). He considers the weather 'broken', and doubts whether a visit on the arranged date would have been pleasant. 'I have misgivings that my hostess and her friend will hardly have a very good time at Deal next week. But they start on Monday for a week or 10 days, perhaps 14, - as "the spot in the locker" may hold out!' He apologises to Dobell's wife ('I was ever thus!') and hopes to see them 'some fine day in Octo if I am still to the fore my hostess hen being back again'.…
