It is the buyer’s responsibility to inspect all lots prior to bidding to ensure that the condition is to their satisfaction. If potential buyers are unable to inspect lots in person, our specialists will be happy to prepare detailed Condition Reports on individual lots as quickly as possible. These are for guidance only, and all lots will be sold “as is” as per our Terms and Conditions of Sale. Bidding At the sale Registered bidders will be assigned a bidder number and given a paddle for use at the sale. Once the first bid has been placed, the auctioneer asks for higher bids in increments determined by the auctioneer. To place your bid, simply raise your paddle until the auctioneer acknowledges you. The auctioneer will not mistake a random gesture for a bid.
Payment Payment is due within ten (10) working days of the sale. Lots purchased will not be released until we have received full payment. Payment may be made in cash, by check, money order, or debit card. Payments by check must clear the bank before goods will be released.

All items must be paid for and removed within ten (10) working days of the sale. Purchases not so removed may be turned over to a licensed warehouse at the expense and risk of the purchaser. Shipping and Packing Responsibility for packing, shipping and insurance shall be exclusively that of the purchaser. Upon request, Freeman’s will provide the purchaser with names of professional packers and shippers known to us. Endangered Species Lots marked * are manufactured in whole or in part of restricted materials that may include tortoiseshell, ivory, mother-of-pearl, coral, rhinoceros horn, whalebone or marine ivory. Such materials may require specific licenses, certificates, or CITES documentation for import, export, moving between states in the U.S., or resale. Obtaining these documents may require scientific, laboratory or other expert analysis, in order to establish which species or genus the material came from. Freeman’s is unable to provide this information, and the obligation is on the purchaser of a lot containing any of these materials to ensure that they are able to obtain all the necessary or required documents should they need to, prior to bidding on the lot. If proper documentation or licenses etc. cannot be obtained for a purchased lot, the purchaser will still be required to make an on time payment for the lot as per our standard terms and conditions. Freeman’s cataloguing of the lots marked with this symbol * represents the best of our opinion, and the absence of this symbol from any lot description does not form a warranty that the lot will be free from any licensing or certification restrictions.

Among the scholarship treating Pierre Samuel du Pont de Nemours’ life and literary output, there is a communis opinio that his constitutional treatise Républiques équinoxiales was never published, and that the very few manuscript copies of it went missing sometime after his passing in 1817. (See e.g. Chinard, 1931; Saricks, 1965) That he had ever written such a work was, in fact, known only from a few scant references in the extant du Pont–Jefferson correspondence from 1815 and 1816. The first such reference appears in a letter dated May 26, 1815 where, amid a broader discussion of various political developments in South America, du Pont alludes to what would prove to be one of his final literary undertakings, and also the impetus behind it: “Ten or twelve large republics are being created on your continent. They will establish themselves and grow stronger, although a few might be temporarily vanquished by the strength or weakness of European Spain. Three of these republics, which are already united, have done me the honor of consulting me…. They had no idea yet about representative governments, and they had experienced the danger of tumultuous assemblies.” In mentioning this “consultation”, du Pont refers to an occasion which must have occurred in Paris at some point in 1814. At that stage, a certain Manuel Palacio-Fajardo, representing the state of New Granada, approached du Pont, and commissioned him to draft a constitutional guidebook for the practical and economical management of his fledgling republic. Later in the year, on December 7th, du Pont sent a manuscript copy of the realized Républiques équinoxiales to Jefferson for his perusal. This was not in itself a rare occurrence, since the two men often discussed matters of economics and politics, and since du Pont had asked Jefferson on several earlier occasions to proofread and critique his latest writings. But only shortly after its dispatch, he asked Jefferson to return the manuscript. He explains the reason for this in his letter of December 20th:
“If you have read the Mémoire aux républiques équinoxiales, I would be grateful if you could send it back to me, either directly if your franking privilege allows it, or through either the president or the secretary of state, who could get it to me under their countersignatures. I will send you another copy of it, which I am having prepared right now. But I need to give the former one to Don Pedro Gual, who has been sent to the United States by the republics that consulted me and that are united as New Granada. It may be that General Palacio has not received either of the two copies I sent him; and the opportunity of transmitting one personally to a civil officer of these republics is not to be neglected.” Jefferson returned the manuscript sometime around the beginning of the New Year, 1816, as may be inferred from his December 31st and January 3rd replies to du Pont. Having delivered the desired copy to the deputy Don Pedro Gual, du Pont then sent a second manuscript Républiques équinoxiales to Jefferson for his commentary. On March 31, 1816, he writes: “I have the honor of sending you again my little gospel for the use of the Spanish republics, which I brought to you four months ago. Thank God I have had and will still have several copies of it to give away, as I have only one secretary…. This book on republics, newly born, to be born, or to be restored, is one of my writings for which I most desire your approval and blessing. I would like to find a good writer to translate it into Spanish.” As mentioned, the unpublished treatise Républiques équinoxiales has been known solely through the references in the foregoing letters (and that only to the handful of scholars who have studied them). Nevertheless, there are several crucial indications that the present manuscript is a period copy of the otherwise unattested work, only now coming to light after having spent two centuries in the custody of the du Pont family. The title and dates of composition, which match those signaled in the Jefferson correspondence; the dedicatory inscription and letter to M. Palacios, whom du Pont identified as his intended recipient in the letter of December 20, 1815; and, finally, the colophon, which du Pont signed and dated, altogether allow for little doubt
30 www.freemansauction.com
that this particular copy is identical with the literary work which du Pont himself described, and thereafter sent twice, to his friend Thomas Jefferson. (For paleographic comparanda to du Pont’s signature, and especially the florid curlicue added to the lobe of the p-stroke, see e.g. the LC collection of Madison-du Pont correspondence, readily accessible online at loc.gov). The overall scope and narrative content of this newly rediscovered manuscript likewise suggest that it must be the formerly “lost” treatise. It is clear that the chapter headings of the present copy (as outlined above) conform to du Pont’s more general interests and views on agriculture, economics, constitutional theory, and anthropology; these were themes which he discussed with an unwavering consistency throughout his other works. Moreover, the salient points of Jefferson’s own review of the Républiques équinoxiales, which he offered to du Pont on April 26, 1816, also reveal that the manuscript now at hand corresponds in form and content to that which Jefferson himself read. In his observations on the dangerously oligarchic structure du Pont recommended, Jefferson appears to be criticizing the arguments found in chapter twelve of the present manuscript, ‘assemblee communal, seconde section: des assemblees de canton,’ and in its concluding chapters. One final observation on the “state” or “edition” of this manuscript: it seems likely that this particular copy represents a second (or possibly third) authorial recension of the text of Républiques équinoxiales. This is evidenced not only by the frequent revisions and corrections throughout, but also by a statement du Pont makes in the manuscript’s prefatory letter to Don Manuel Palacios, wherein he remarks on the superiority of this present state of the text: “J’ignore si la premiere copie du Memoire ici joint a pu vous parvenir, et je vous envoie une seconde en peu corrigee.”

Freeman’s reserves the right to determine any and all matters regarding the order, precedence or appropriate increment of bids or the constitution of lots. 6 The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the buyer. The auctioneer has the right to reject any bid, to advance the bidding at his absolute discretion and in the event of any dispute between bidders, the auctioneer shall have the sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re- offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after sale, the Freeman’s sale record shall be conclusive in all respects. 7 If the auctioneer determines that any opening or later bid or any advance bid is not commensurate with the value of the Property offered, he may reject the same and withdraw the Property from sale.
8 Upon the fall of the hammer, title to any offered lot or article will immediately pass to the highest bidder as determined in the exclusive discretion of the auctioneer, subject to compliance by the buyer with these Conditions of Sale. Buyer thereupon assumes full risk and responsibility of the property sold, agrees to sign any requested confirmation of purchase, and agrees to pay the full price, plus Buyer’s Premium, therefore or such part, upon such terms as Freeman’s may require. 9 No lot may be removed from Freeman’s premises until the buyer has paid in full the purchase price therefor including Buyer’s Premium or has satisfied such terms that Freeman’s, in its sole discretion, shall require. Subject to the foregoing, all Property shall be paid for and removed by the buyer at his/her expense within ten (10) days of sale and, if not so removed, may be sold by Freeman’s, or sent by Freeman’s to a public warehouse, at the sole risk and charge of the buyer(s), and Freeman’s may prohibit the buyer from participating, directly or indirectly, as a bidder or buyer in any future sale or sales. In addition to other remedies available to Freeman’s by law, Freeman’s reserves the right to impose a late charge of 1.5% per month of the total purchase price on any balance remaining ten (10) days after the day of sale.

Checks will not be deemed to constitute payment until cleared. Any exceptions must be made upon Freeman’s written approval of credit prior to sale. In addition, a defaulting buyer will be deemed to have granted and assigned to Freeman’s, a continuing security interest of first priority in any property or money of, or owing to such buyer in Freeman’s possession, and Freeman’s may retain and apply such property or money as collateral security for the obligations due to Freeman’s. Freeman’s shall have all of the rights accorded a secured party under the Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code. 10 Unless the sale is advertised and announced as “without reserve”, each lot is offered subject to a reserve and Freeman’s may implement such reserves by bidding through its representatives on behalf of the Consignors. In certain instances, the Consignor may pay less than the standard commission rate where Freeman’s or its representative is a successful bidder on behalf of the Consignor. Where the Consignor is indebted to Freeman’s, Freeman’s may have an interest in the offered lots and the proceeds therefrom, other than the broker’s Commissions, and all sales are subject to any such interest. 11 No “buy” bids shall be accepted at any time for any purpose. 12 Any pre-sale bids must be submitted in writing to Freeman’s prior to commencement of the offer of the first lot of any sale. Freeman’s copy of any such bid shall conclusively be deemed to be the sole evidence of same, and while Freeman’s accepts these bids for the convenience of bidders not present at the auction, Freeman’s shall not be responsible for the failure to execute, or, to execute properly, any pre-sale bid.

Freeman’s is not responsible for any acts or omissions in packing or shipping of purchased lots whether or not such carrier is recommended by Freeman’s. Packing and handling of purchased lots is at the responsibility of the buyer and is at the entire risk of the buyer. 16 In no event shall any liability of Freeman’s to the buyer exceed the purchase price actually paid. 17 No claimed modification or amendment of this Agreement on the part of any party shall be deemed extant, enforceable or provable unless it is in writing that has been signed by the parties to this Agreement. No course of dealing and no delay or omission on the part of Freeman’s in exercising any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right and waiver on any one or more occasions shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy of Freeman’s on any future occasion. 18 These Conditions of Sale and the buyer’s, the Consignor’s and Freeman’s rights under these Conditions of Sale shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and Consignor and Buyer agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. v1.2015
