“Personal Dairy (sic) of J. M. Wiseman, fireman of S.S. Roosevelt.”

[Newfoundland and the Arctic], June 9, 1908 - October 2, 1909. 4to, original marbled boards, buckram spine, all edges stained red; scattered, moderate wear. 42 graphite manuscript leaves, leaf size: 8 1/4 x 6 3/4 inches; 210 x 171mm.

Internally clean, occasional fingerprints, text entirely legible, written in Wiseman’s schoolboy-like cursive. Early ownership bookplate of “The Hazeltons” on front pastedown. Entered in pencil in Wiseman’s hand on front blank: “Personal Dairy (sic) of / J. M. Wiseman / fireman of S.S. Roosevelt.”

The diary is an unpublished account containing significant information, unknown to scholarship, relating to Robert Peary’s final polar expedition.

Wiseman joined the expedition in St. John’s, Newfoundland, the crew traveled to New York where they met the S.S. Roosevelt. The ship traveled up the east coast of North America stopping in Oyster Bay to meet President Roosevelt and making stops in ports such as New Bedford, North Sydney, Cape Charles, Hawkes Harbour, Cape York, and Etah, among others.

Wiseman’s role in the crew was that of a fireman, working below deck shoveling coal and maintaining the ship’s engines. He also made garments for the Commander (Peary) and, “he [Peary] was pleased with them.” He aided in the scholarly research of the expedition by assisting Professor Ross G. Martin in making tidal observations.

Martin was killed during the expedition when he drowned after falling through the ice. Entries detail exploration of Greenland, hunting expeditions, Inuit life (called by

Wiseman ‘huskys’), and the death of Martin. One particularly fascinating entry recounts the hunting of a “norwhale (sp)” that when brought aboard was found to be, “16 feet long and had a horn 6 feet long.” Of interesting note, Wiseman writes on September 7th 1909, “we heard that the Commander had a telegram telling him that Dr Cook found the North Pole well we all took a smile at that we think the Commander will fix him when he gets home.” $3,000-5,000 36 (History of Medicine) 1 Vol. Beaumont, William.

S. D. Green, Board of Education, Trenton, N.J., “You ask that I send a word of greeting to your students.

Any message to those at the point of taking up life’s problems should be one of optimism and hope.

Unfortunately, the Indian subject does not furnish the best of material for such a message. Every year seemingly finds the economic problem of the Indian as a whole more trying... ‘Year by year they grow poorer.’ White man’s greed and political expediency are not

constructive factors in the Indian problem... One of the definite aims of the Indian Welfare League is to secure citizenship for the Indians.

Truly, the original American should be put upon a footing which will permit and encourage ambition.”

Document Signed. Chopin, Frederic.

London, May, 1840. 1 page, 5 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches; 138 x 239mm; some smudging at edges, light creases along old folds. Partly printed receipt, completed and signed in manuscript, for 24 pounds for the sale of the copyright and interest present and future in the Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland of Chopin’s Sonata Opus 35, Impromptu Opus 36, and Nocturnes Opus 37. Strong, dark signature.

This receipt, rediscovered in 1979, derives from a larger collection of 17 contracts signed by Chopin; these documents were, to that time, part of an archive owned by Edwin Ashdown, a distant relative of Christian Wessel, Chopin’s English publisher. It has been established that the receipt at hand was onethird of a contract which was, like most others in Ashdown’s collection, cut up and parted out from its original context at the time of its first appearance at auction.
