LY O N & T U R N B U L L Important information for buyers
Buying at Auction This sale is subject to our standard Terms and Conditions of Sale. If you have not bought at auction before we will be delighted to advise you. Estimates Estimates are printed below each lot and do not include the buyer’s premium. The sale will be conducted in pounds sterling. Dimensions Dimensions are for guidance only; it is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure that they are correct. Buyer’s Premium The buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon. 25% up to £25,000 / 20% thereafter. VAT will be charged on the premium at the rate imposed by law. (see our Terms and Conditions of Sale). VAT The symbol † by a lot number indicates that VAT is payable by the purchaser at the standard rate on the hammer price. The symbol * by a lot number indicates that the lot has been temporarily imported from outside the EU and that VAT is payable by the purchaser at the rate of 5% on the hammer price. No VAT is payable on the hammer price or premium for books bought at auction. Droit de Suite This symbol § indicates works which may be subject to the Droit de Suite or Artist’s Resale Right, which took effect in the United Kingdom on 14th February 2006. We are required to collect a royalty payment for all qualifying works of art. Under new legislation which came into effect on 1st January 2012, this applies to living artists and artists who have died in the last 70 years. This royalty will be charged to the buyer on the hammer price and in addition to the buyer’s premium. It will not apply to works where the hammer price is less than €1,000 (euros). The charge for works of art sold at and above €1,000 (euros) and below €50,000 (euros) is 4%. For items selling above €50,000 (euros),
charges are calculated on a sliding scale. All royalty charges are paid to the appropriate collecting organisation and no handling costs or additional fees are retained by the auctioneer. Resale royalties are not subject to VAT. Please note that the royalty payment is calculated on the rate of exchange at the European Central Bank on the date of the sale. More information on Droit de Suite is available at www.dacs.org.uk Damage and Restoration Occasionally, when a lot has suffered extensive damage and/or restoration it is indicated in the catalogue.

10 FH166/1 Imray, James Rice ports of India. London, 1872. C.130x103cm, blue-back rolled chart, some soiling, 15x22cm repaired area to verso, a few small tears around edges Note: Unlike government charts issued by the British Admiralty, U.S. Coast Survey, and other similar organizations, Imray’s charts were a private profit based venture and not generally the result of unique survey work. Rather, Imray’s charts were judicious and beautiful composites based upon pre-existing charts (some dating to the 17th century) and new information gleaned from governmental as well as commercial pilots and navigators. Many of his most successful charts were targeted to specific trade routes, for example, he issued charts entitled “Cotton Ports of Georgia” and “Rice Ports of India”. Other charts emerged quickly following such events as the 1849 California Gold Rush. £200-300

First edition, 3 volumes, 12mo, (190 x 105mm.), half-titles in all three volumes, original blue paper boards, uncut, paper labels on spines, b2-11, c2-11, & d2-11of volume 1 loose, volume 1 upper joint very slightly rubbed & with small split, two small tears at head of volume 1 spine (no loss), very slight marking to bindings, modern green morocco-backed solander box Provenance: “Lady M. Dalrymple, Oxenford Castle”, inscription on front free endpaper of volume 1; “Oxenford Castle” inscribed on front free endpaper of volume 3 Note: A superb copy of Jane Austen’s fourth novel in original boards. Keynes in his bibliography notes “The firm of Murray has recently stated that 2000 copies of Emma were printed, and of these 1250 were sold within a year”. Keynes also notes that “The collation of the first volume of Emma is peculiar in that the first sheet consisted only of the title-page and the dedication to the Prince Regent, while the half-title was printed on the last leaf, which would otherwise have been blank. If the binder has omitted to transfer the half-title to the beginning of the volume, it will appear, at first sight, to be imperfect”. In the present copy the half-title is bound before the title. “H” watermark on pp. 18, 42, 66 (& others) in volume 1; also on pp. 138, 188, 210, 236, 260, in volume 3.

94 Admiral Sir David Milne, with the proceeds from three French warships captured at the Battle of Algiers, in the Napoleonic Wars. It was at Milne Graden House that the Journal was found. Having finished his training as a midshipman, of which creating the Journal log was an integral part, Alan Hotham rose to be a rearAdmiral. Highlights of his career were commanding HMS Comus at the Battle of Jutland in 1916, being Commander-in-Chief of the New Zealand Squadron from 1921-23 and being Director of Naval Intelligence from 1924-29. H.M.S. Blake was the lead ship of her class of protected cruiser that served in the Royal Navy from 1889-1892. She was launched on 23 November 1889 at Chatham Dockyard, but not completed until 2 February 1892 (when this log begins). She served as the flagship of the North America and West Indies Squadron from 1892-1895. (The North America and West Indies station was a formation or command of the Royal Navy stationed in North American waters from 1745 until 1956, initially formed in 1745 to counter French forces in North America. For the first sixty years the headquaters of the squadron was at Halifax Naval Yard in Nova Scotia. In 1818, its main base was moved to Bermuda, while Halifax continued to be used as the summer base). H.M.S. Blake represented Britain at the New York International [Naval] Review of April 1893, and the log contains three manuscript charts of the U.S. coast and a manuscript plan of New York, Brooklyn & New Jersey, a manuscript Signal from [U.S.] Admiral Hopkins, and a ms. chart of the naval ships attending. The majority of the logs detail journeys around Newfoundland and between and around Halifax and the West Indies. H.M.S. Cleopatra was a corvette, built in Glasgow with five other ships of her class. She was commissioned in 1878 and her first cruise was a three year deployment also on the North America and West Indies Station, where she also acted as Commodore’s ship during the Newfoundland fishers season. An account of the cruise by the ship’s

98 FG815/1 Stuart, Charles Edward, “Bonnie Prince Charlie”, or “The Young Pretender”, 1720-88 Autograph letter signed to Louis XV, the King of France, “Monsieur Mon Frere et Cousin. J’ai eu l’honneur d’ecrire a Votre Majesté”, stating that he has written a Memorandum of his affairs [“un petit memoire des mes affaires”], that he strongly hopes to put into the hands of the King himself, and that he waits with impatience the King’s orders as to the day and way he may do so, and offering to come incognito to a secret rendezvous to be recommended by the king, signed “Monsieur Mon Frere et Cousin de Votre Majesté, le bon Frere et Cousin, Charles P., Clichy, le 5 Novembre, 1746”, 1 page, with Stuart, Charles Edward Autograph covering letter, stating that he is enclosing a letter for His Majesty, that without exception no one knows that he has written it nor the method of its delivery, stating that the carrier, Monsieur Kelly, is a citizen esteemed by him but that nevertheless he knows nothing of the contents [“il ne scait rien pourtant du contenu”], and that he is completely convinced of His Majesty’s friendship for him and he can be same of his, 1 leaf, integral blank, Clichy, 5 November, 1746; Stuart, Charles Edward. Autograph memoir, headed “Memoire”, describing the political situation [“ce Roiaume est a la veille de se voir aneantir”], stating that English government oppression is fostering ever more support for his

cause [“j’y trouverais aujourdhui trois partisans pour un que j’y ay trouvé en debarquant”], explains his lack of success at taking the English throne, noting that he has never lacked for Scottish subjects ready to fight, but lacked money, equipment and a regular army “J’ay manqué tout a la fois, d’argent, de vivres et d’une poigneé de troupes regulieres” . If he had had just one of these he states, he would by

now have been King of Scotland “et vraisembalement de toute l’Angleterre”, 2 pp., integral blank leaf, all 31 x 20cm., all with small stamp “Bu. Poitiers, Archives d’Argenson” Provenance: The letter was passed by King Louis to the Marquis d’Argenson, his Minister of War and it remained in the d’’Argenson family archives for nearly 250 years until it was loaned to the University of Poitiers for safekeeping. In 2002 the d’Argenson family sold this and other documents. Note: Prince Charlie wrote to King Louis XV of France on November 5th 1746, six weeks after his escape to France from Arisaig on the west coast of Scotland, and three weeks after his arrival at Roscoff on 11 October, setting out his account of the Rising and appealing for the King’s help to mobilise another campaign to win back his kingdom. The document comprises three sections: [1] a covering letter to the Marquis d’Argenson, King Louis’ Minister of War, requesting that he present his letter and Memorandum to King Louis; [2] a covering letter to the King; and [3] the Memorandum itself, setting out the Prince’s account of the campaign and appealing for the King’s support. The letters and Memorandum comprise a unique historical account, in the Prince’s own hand, setting out his version of the events of the 1745 Rising. The content of the letter shows that he had clearly not given up hope of a successful return and states bluntly that the 1745 Campaign would surely have succeeded with modest help from France at critical points during the campaign. The Memorandum confirms that the Prince’s decision to advise supporters to disperse after Culloden was not a betrayal, but rather a fully rational decision to minimise loss of life pending his efforts to mobilise further support. It reveals that the Prince was still very optimistic about the prospects for eventual success, hoping to repeat the experience of his great-uncle King Charles II, who returned to become King after the Stuart monarchy’s defeat in battle and exile abroad. Had King Louis responded positively to the Prince’s request for support to launch a new campaign, it could have altered the course of British history. However, by that time, the French had defeated British forces in Flanders, greatly assisted by the withdrawal of key British regiments from the continent to counteract the threat posed by the Rising. So, looked at from the viewpoint of King Louis and his ministers, the Prince had served his purpose and no further support was given. The Prince’s worst fears were realised when France signed the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle in October 1748, recognising the Hanoverian succession and repudiating the claim of the Stuarts. With all hope of an imminent invasion abandoned, Charles was forcibly escorted from Paris and began 40 years of exile. In the light of the Prince’s subsequent decline, reading the Memorandum today is rather poignant, for we know how the story turned out, as he could not when he sat down to write to King Louis XV on November 5th 1746. £8,000-12,000

BOOKS FROM THE SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY LIBRARY, PART 1
Dr J A Gibson and The Scottish Natural History Library An eminent naturalist, author and editor of the Scottish Naturalist journal, Dr J A ("Jack") Gibson devoted himself to the study of Scottish natural history. He was awarded the Gold Medal of the Scottish Society for the Protection of Birds in 1967 and the Queen's Silver Jubilee Medal in 1977 for his outstanding services to Scottish natural history. From an early age he had a particular passion for collecting natural history books and over the years he amassed an extensive and remarkable private book collection. This private collection was the central core upon which he founded his crowning glory, The Scottish Natural History Library, in 1978. His aim in founding this Library was to realise his lifelong ambition of collecting together everything ever published on Scottish natural history. In this context, natural history is to be interpreted in the widest possible sense, to include not only traditional subjects but also history, geography, archaeology, antiquities, topography, folk-lore, anything pertaining to Scotland in whole or in part, and any other subject considered relevant. He remained Chairman of The Scottish Natural History Library until his death, aged 85, in 2013. 27

Between 1817 and 1820, Rose de Freycinet and her husband, Louis de Freycinet, sailed around the world onboard the Uraine, a French military ship. Louis de Freycinet was charged with taking scientific measures and natural history specimens whilst onboard the ship. Unwilling to be separated from her husband, Rose disguised herself as a man and became a ‘stowaway’ as the journey commenced. The presence of women aboard naval vessles was illegal at the time, and when Rose was revealed soon after departure, there was uproar in French society. However, nothing could be done, as the ship was not due to arrive into its next port - Réunion, in the Indian Ocean - until 1818. Rose de Freycinet is marked out as one of the first women to write a journal of her voyage, although this was not published until 1927. £300-500

(Jock) Chambers from Bovington Camp, Wareham, Post Office on 13 May 1935, photocopy of brief note initialled TES, and newspaper article from Bournemouth Evening Echo, 10 Sept. 1971 on Lawrence, Jock and the “Dead Woman’s Stone” Note: Eight years younger than Lawrence, yet with prior Navy and Army service, Chambers was an orderly in Lawrence’s Farnborough barracks. Lawrence instructed Chambers in literature and music, lent him books and paid for his membership of the London Library. The two kept in touch after Lawrence moved to Bovington and Chambers became a postal sorter in London. “[D]on’t hesitate to write if... I can ever be of use to you”, Lawrence said. He helped Chambers get payments from the services, paid his rail fare to visit Clouds Hill, arranged for him to sell his letters. Confidences about Deraa, his illegitimacy, and the tribulations of fame balanced any patronizing element in his friendship.. “The cottage [Clouds Hill] will never be less than partly yours, whenever you want it” Lawrence wrote to Chambers early in 1935”. (Orlans, H. T.E. Lawrence: Biography of a broken hero, p. 175). Chambers spent Christmas 1933 at Clouds Hill with Lawrence.

The annotated typed page comprises doubts as to the veracity of some passages of Lawrence’s account (“how could Lawrence, soliloquising in the desert circa 1916, speak about Ross of 1922”), & “the last days at Cloud Hill... T.E. was in excellent spirits after having had a miserable time with the press wallahs. He regretted having blacked the eye of one of the pressmen...”, and also refers to their joint efforts to ensure a constant supply of hot water for Clouds Hill “for he suffered greatly from malaria in cold weather”. The Bodleian Library has a fine archive of T.E. Lawrence manuscripts, including 24 letters from from Lawrence to Chambers, and also the original wrapping, of which a photocopy is included in the present lot, of the parcel of books posted to Chambers on 13 May 1935, only minutes before Lawrence’s fatal accident.

We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently.

If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition.
