Appleby Castle, Westmorland Appleby Castle, in Westmorland, is one of the finest and oldest castles in Northern England. Located close to the EnglishScottish border, the Castle has often been at the forefront of Anglo-Scottish conflict. It was founded by Ranulf le Meschin at the beginning of the 12th century and around 1170 the great square Norman keep, known as Caesar’s Tower, was built. The Castle was in royal hands when the Scottish king, William the Lion, invaded the Eden Valley in 1174 and was surrendered without a fight. In 1203 the Castle was granted to Robert I de Vipont by King John. Following its recapture the keep was raised higher and a stone curtain wall replaced the wooden palisades of the first Castle. In 1264, the Castle came into the possession of Roger de Clifford through his marriage to Isabel de Vipont. Later, in the 1450s, the eastern range of buildings was extended. Several Kings were Lords of Appleby: Henry II, Richard I, John and Edward IV among them. King Richard III, whilst Duke of Gloucester in the 1470s, held the whole Lordship of Westmorland. Other Lords of the Castle also feature in English history. Hugh de Morville was one of the four assassins of Archbishop Thomas à Becket in Canterbury Cathedral in 1170. Robert, First Lord Clifford, former Earl Marshal and Lord High Admiral, was one of the English leaders who fell at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. The Castle remained in the possession of the Clifford family for nearly 400 years. During the English Civil War of 1642-1651 the Castle was besieged by the Parliamentarians and partly dismantled following its capture. However, it was rebuilt by Lady Anne Clifford in 1651-53. Lady Anne Clifford was a formidable woman in her own right, both an author and patron of the literary arts. On the death of her father in 1605 she succeeded to the title of 14th Baroness de Clifford, and fought a long and complex legal battle to obtain the family estates, in which she was eventually successful. As a child she was a favourite of Queen Elizabeth I, danced in masques with Queen Anne of Denmark, consort of King James VI and I, and played roles in several of the early court masques by Ben Jonson. A distinguished female diarist, Lady Anne Clifford is a notable literary, known for her letters

Appleby Castle.

and the journal she kept from 1603 to 1616. After moving north, she rotated her residence amongst her Castles, including Appleby Castle, Skipton Castle, Pendragon Castle and Brougham Castle, living in various ones for several months to a year at a time. Upon Lady Anne Clifford’s death, the Castle passed to her grandson, the Sixth Earl of Thanet, who remodelled the austere hall block into a classical mansion house. The house was largely rebuilt in 1686 and the northwest wing was added in 1695. In the 19th century it was again restored. The village of Appleby has an interesting connection with the United States of America: the father and step-brothers of the founding President, George Washington, both attended the local school. Were it not for the sudden death of his father in 1743, on reaching the age at which the two older boys had made the long voyage from Virginia, George Washington himself would have most certainly followed in their footsteps. The library of Appleby Castle encompasses works from the 16th to 21st centuries, including a stunning collection of fine bindings, and a letter from Louis XI of France, (lot 83,) summoning his uncle the Duke of Burgundy, Philip the Good, to appear before Parliament. A magnificently illustrated copy of Holinshead’s Chronicles of 1577, (lot 66,) is another highlight. Recognised as one of the greatest historical works on British history, it was an important source book for William Shakespeare’s writings. A selection of important books produced by William Morris’s Kelmscott Press are also included in the sale. These comprise of The Story of Sigurd, the Volsung and the Rise of the Niblungs, 1898, (lot 73;) The Earthly Paradise, 1896-97, (lot 74;) and The Well at the World’s End, 1896, (lot 75.) All three books are very handsome examples of the works produced by William Morris’s Kelmscott Press, widely regarded as some of the finest examples of Arts & Crafts era illustration and printing.

The Library at Appleby Castle.

The current owner of Appleby Castle, Sally Nightingale, has lived at the Castle for 18 years and has opened it to the public, making the Castle available as a venue for weddings, conferences and functions. It is also open for private tours. Special events such as open air theatre, mediaeval reenactments and banquets are also held in the Castle precincts.

284 Dickens, Charles - Smith, Arthur; Mackay, Charles - Scottish Readings Tour 1858 Autograph signature of Charles Dickens, dated Sixth October 1858, and also dated Perth October 6th 1858, on slip 12.5 x 3cm; Smith, Arthur, [Charles Dicken’s Tour Manager], [Reading Ticket] Envelope inscribed “Dear Sir, Please send the enclosed to Aberdeen by Train, Faithfully, Arthur Smith, Sept 8th”, envelope with blue printed motif on rear “Mr Charles Dickens’s Readings”; Mackay, Arthur (1814-89; author and journalist who worked with Dickens on the Morning Chronicle and the Daily News) Clipped signature “Yours truly, Chas. Mackay”, 4 x 9cm, pasted onto a piece of paper Note: Collection of interconnected items relating to Dickens Scottish Readings of 1858. Arthur Smith was Dickens’s Tour Manager from 1858 to 1861; Charles Mackay, a lifelong friend of Dickens born in Perth, was a renowned Scottish poet and publisher in his own right and was the sub editor on the Morning Chronicle (the editor of which was George Hogarth, father of Catherine, later to become Dickens’s wife) for which Dickens worked as a Parliamentary reporter. It is surely no coincidence that Perth figures on Dickens’s first Scottish Tour and the Dickens signature in his own hand notes it, the date and year. There is also an unusual monogram of two interlocking initials, either C.D. or R.D. ?

284

Smith’s message on the back of the Dickens’s Readings envelope is enigmatic. “Dear Sir.. Please send the enclosed to Aberdeen by train. Faithfully, Arthur Smith, Sept. 8th”. What was in the envelope, tickets perhaps to Dickens’s Reading at the Music Hall in Aberdeen ? Curiously there is no addressee on the envelope. Apart from the interconnection of the signatures, the 1858 Scottish tour is highly important in terms of Dickens’s personal life. In the early Summer of 1858 on his return with Arthur Smith from a highly successful American tour, the misdirected jewellery incident ended formally Dickens’s marriage and exposed his affair with Ellen Ternan, an 18 year old actress. For a while it threatened to destroy the “home and hearth” image of Dickens as a stalwart family man. At the time Dickens was terrified of the loss of his Public and the likely financial repercussions. Under instruction from Dickens Smith released a detailed letter - the “Violated” letter in which Dickens tried to defend his actions. It must have been with both trepidation and relief that Dickens soon after set off for Scotland to give a series of Public Readings in Edinburgh, Perth, Dundee, Aberdeen and Glasgow. Dickens relied on Arthur Smith for the organisation and promotion of his Reading Tours (1858-1861). Arthur Smith in his own right was the English equivalent of Barnum in America. He sold Dickens as a “Brand”. Dickens recognised Smith’s talent when the latter successfully promoted his brother Albert Smith - who was as famous in his heyday as Dickens as a poet, novelist and mountaineer, promoting his brother’s “Ascent of Mont Blanc” production and creating Mont Blanc mania in London. Financially the Scottish part of the Readings Tour was a great success. The net profit to Dickens of the English Tour had been upwards of three hundred pounds a week, but this was nothing to the success in Scotland, where his profit in a week, with all expenses paid, was five hundred pounds. Speaking of his last 1858 Edinburgh reading, Dickens wrote “the people had to be got in through such a crowd as rendered it a work of the utmost difficulty to keep an alley into the room. They were seated about me on the platform, put into the doorway of the waitingroom, squeezed into every conceivable place, and a multitude turned away once more. I think I am better pleased with what was done in Edinburgh than with what has been done anywhere, almost. “ 2016 is the 150th anniversary of Dickens’s second Scottish Reading Tour of 1866. £1,200-1,500

On the smaller of the five leaves, Gide looks at Franco’s use of autocratic nationalist sentiment to make up for the fact that he does not command a majority. He comments on Franco’s repressive regime, contrasting this with the number of volunteers heading to support the Republicans, being inspired by Russian Socialism. £200-300 286 Grant of arms to Robert Scott Moncrieff of Coats and Rynd by John Campbell Hooke of Bangeston, Lyon King of Arms, watercolour of the arms at side, seal (broken, but largely complete), 1771, 26 x 31cm, in original tin tube £150-250 287 Gray, David (1838-61), poet Autograph letter signed (“David Gray”), to the playwright John Westland Marston, begging for his assistance (“ my funds being exhausted – and Tuesday the day to pay the landlady – I make bold to request some assistance from you...”), 3 pages, 8vo, 66 Upper Stanford Street, 24 June 1860 Note: Letters by David Gray, who died of consumption aged 23, are rare.

Note: Peter King, 1st Baron King, was interested in early church history, and published anonymously in 1691 An Enquiry into the Constitution, Discipline, Unity and Worship of the Primitive Church that flourished within the first Three Hundred Years after Christ. This treatise caught the attention of his cousin, John Locke, the philosopher, by whose advice his father sent him to the University of Leiden, where he stayed for nearly three years. He entered the Middle Temple in 1694, was called to the bar in 1698 and was appointed Lord Chancellor in 1725.

Provenance: Fred Holmes, former member of The Black Watch pipes and drums regimental band

The manuscript comprises theological, political and legal notes, and transcriptions of letters, published broadsides and printed tracts.

Note: On 10th September 1963, the Black Watch pipes and drums regimental band departed upon a tour of the USA and Canada, which would last into December. The band played in 63 cities, including Washington DC, where the band performed on the South Lawn of the White House for the Kennedy family. The performance took place on the 13th November, only 9 days before the President was assassinated. Nine of these pipers would later play at Kennedy’s funeral, as the President had an interest in the music stemming from his Irish ancestry.

£800-1,000

Following the concert at the White House on the 13th, the band had the opportunity to explore the house, but did not meet the President. In fact, it was not until the tour bus had started to pull away from the grounds that the group were suddenly halted. As the bus stopped, the President and the Secretary of State, Dean Rusk, climbed aboard and thanked the band for their performance. Several of the band members, including the youngest, Fred Holmes, then asked the President for signatures, presenting whatever paper they had on their persons. In Fred’s case, this was a book of matches, which Kennedy happily signed using Rusk’s pencil, as his pen had stopped working! Footage of The Black Watch band at the White House can be found on the website of the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum. £700-1,000

Schindler continues to write that Mr Hollerthal would bring a tape recording from their “friends in Los Angeles” to Stern, for inclusion in the “Schindler Archive”. Schindler also mentions that Poldek Pfefferberg has produced a television programme including things which Schindler had witnessed during the war, and that he has the opportunity to, “produce a motion picture.” Itzhak Stern (1901-1969) was Oskar Schindler’s accountant, credited with typing Schindler’s list of names of Jewish people who survived the Holocaust as a result of Schindler’s efforts. Poldek Pfefferberg (19132001) was a Polish-American Holocaust survivor who had worked in Schindler’s enamelware factory, and described him as a “modern Noah”. Following the Second World War, Pfefferberg settled in Los Angeles with his wife, and tried several times to bring Schindler’s story to the attention of screenwriters. In 1980, several years following Schindler’s death, Pfefferberg met Thomas Keneally and advised him on the writing of his book, Schindler’s Ark, and a few years later he advised Steven Spielberg on the filming of Schindler’s List. This is an unusual letter, written by Oskar Schindler, referring both to the Holocaust and to Pfefferberg’s early attempts to bring Oskar Schindler’s story to the world. £5,000-7,000

Travel Works from the Library of the Late Mrs Aldyth Cadoux Lots 446 to 467 comprise the collection of travel works from the library of the late Mrs Aldyth Cadoux (1927-2015). Aldyth and Theo Cadoux moved to Gayfield Square, in Edinburgh’s New Town, in 1955 when Theo was appointed to the Classics Department of the University of Edinburgh. Aldyth was an only child and her father, who had spent time in Serbia and had friends in Belgrade, was perhaps responsible for sparking an early interest in what was later to become Aldyth’s passion for Slavic languages, travel and textiles. The following books reflect Aldyth and Theo’s travels throughout Russia, Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Mrs Cadoux was wellknown and welcomed by the staff of the Hermitage Museum, where she became lifelong friends with the museum director himself. Textiles were one of Aldyth’s main interests in life – she was an accomplished embroiderer, with expertise in church embroidery and gold thread work. She had extensive knowledge of fabrics, especially ancient fabrics, which she developed during her annual trips to the Middle East. Here she would advise on the age and type of cloth that was extracted from the tombs in Egypt. She also had an extensive library of embroidery and textile books, which will be sold as part of Lyon & Turnbull’s Fine Furniture and Works of Art sale on 29th June 2016, alongside Aldyth’s fine collection of textiles and works of art.

Collections sell better as collections. That belief is at the heart of our approach to auctioneering. Over the course of our long history, we have seen this borne out time and time again: from the contents of grand homes to corporate collections, from contemporary art to Chinese snuff bottles; there is little we have not handled and sold well.

The Auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by Sellers or Buyers. 3. BIDDING PROCEDURES AND THE BUYER (a) Bidders are required to register their particulars before bidding and to satisfy any security and credit references or arrangements before entering the auction room to view or bid; (b) The maker of the highest bid accepted by the Auctioneer conducting the sale shall be the Buyer and any dispute shall be settled at the Auctioneer's absolute discretion.

(c) Once made, no bid may be withdrawn. (d) Our right to bid on behalf of Sellers is expressly reserved up to the amount of any reserve. (e) The right to refuse any bid is also reserved. (f) Commission Bids: While prospective Buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition we shall, if so instructed, clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the Auctioneer nor our employees nor agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made.

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 Design and Artists Copyright Society (‘DACS’) and no handling costs or additional fees are retained by the auctioneer. Resale royalties are not subject to VAT.

(2) Any payments by you to us may be applied by us


towards any sums owing by you to us howsoever incurred and without agreement by you or your agent, whether express or implied.. 9.

(2) You shall at your own risk and expense take away any lots that you have purchased and paid for not later than 7 working days following the day of the auction or upon the clearance of any cheque used for payment whichever is later.

(3) No purchase can be claimed or removed until it has been paid for.

(5) Export of goods: Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing goods of that character, e.g. items that may contain prohibited materials such as ivory or rhino horn. It is the buyer’s sole responsibility to obtain any relevant export or import licence. The denial of any licence or any delay in obtaining licences shall neither justify the recession of any sale not any delay in making full payment for the lot. 10. REMEDIES FOR NON·PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES (1) If any lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance with these Conditions or if there is any other breach of these Conditions, we, as agent for the Sellers and on their behalf, shall at our absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights we may have, be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies: (a) to proceed against you for damages for breach of contract; (b) to rescind the contract for sale of that lot and/or any other lots sold by us to you; (c) to resell the lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case you shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after crediting any part payment and adding any resale costs).

DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (1) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective Buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective Buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and only accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer or our employees or agents accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and no warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are given. Please note that photographs/images provided may not be fully representative of the condition of the lot and should not be relied upon as indicative of the overall condition of the lot.

(2) Condition reports: Condition reports are provided on our website or upon request. The absence of a report does not imply that a lot is without imperfections. Large numbers of such requests are received shortly before each sale and department specialists and administration will endeavor to respond to all requests although we offer no guarantee. Any statement in relation to the lot is merely an expression of opinion of the Seller or Lyon & Turnbull and should not be relied upon as an inducement to bid on the lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the sale and you are strongly advised to examine any lot in which you are interested prior to the sale. Our condition reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers or engineers. Our condition report does not form any contract between Lyon & Turnbull and the Buyer. The Condition Reports do not affect the Seller’s obligations in any way. (3) Estimates: Estimates are placed on each lot to help Buyers gauge the sums involved for the purchase of a particular lot. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT. Estimates are a matter of opinion and prepared in advance. Estimates may be subject to change and are for guidance only and should not be relied upon. (4) Catalogue Alterations: Lot descriptions and estimates are prepared in advance of the sale and may be subject to change. Any alterations will be announced on the catalogue alteration sheet, made available prior to the sale. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to make themselves aware to any alterations which may have occurred. (5) Electrical Goods: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first. Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given.

14. SALE BY PRIVATE TREATY (a) The same Conditions of Sale (Buyers) shall apply to sales by private treaty. (b) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction and subject to our agreed charges for Sellers and Buyers. (c) Lyon & Turnbull undertakes to inform the Seller of any offers it receives in relation to an item prior to any Proposed Sale, excluding the normal method of commission bids. (d) For the purposes of a private treaty sale, if a lot is sold in any other currency than Sterling, the exchange rate is to be taken on the date of sale. 15. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY All members of the public on our premises are there at their own risk and must note the lay-out of the accommodation, safety and security arrangements. Accordingly, neither the Auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur liability for death or personal injury or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior to, during or after a sale. 16. GENERAL (a) We shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person.

12. BOOKS, CLOCKS & WATCHES (1) Books-Collation: If on collation any NAMED item in the sale catalogue proves defective, in text or illustration the Buyer may reject the lot provided he returns it within 21 days of the sale stating the defect in writing.

Most clocks and watches will have been repaired during their normal lifetime and may now incorporate additional/newer parts. Furthermore, Lyon & Turnbull makes no representation or warranty that any clock or watch is in working order. As clocks and watches often contain fine and complex mechanisms, Buyers should be aware that a general service, change of battery or further repair work, for which the Buyer is solely responsible, may be necessary. Buyers should also be aware that Lyon & Turnbull cannot guarantee a watch will remain waterproof if the back is removed. Buyers should be aware that the importing watches such as Rolex, Frank Muller and Corum into the United States is highly restricted. These watches cannot be shipped to the USA and only imported personally. 13.

Please note that all first time bidders at Lyon & Turnbull will be asked to supply the following documents in order to facilitate registration: 1 – Government issued photo ID (Passport/ Driving licence) 2 – Proof of address (utility bill/ bank statement). We may, at our option, also ask you to provide a bank reference and/ or deposit. By registering for the sale, the buyer acknowledges that he or she has read, understood and accepted our 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. Please ensure that the auctioneer repeats your bidder number correctly when confirming the sale. If there is any doubt at this stage as to the hammer price or buyer it must be brought to the auctioneer’s attention immediately. All lots will be invoiced to the name and address given on your registration form, which is non-transferable.

By phone A limited number of telephone lines are available for bidding by phone through a Lyon & Turnbull representative. Phone lines must be reserved in advance. All bid requests must be received an hour before the sale. All telephone bids must be confirmed in writing, listing the relevant lots and appropriate number to be called. We recommend that a covering bid is also left in the event that we are unable to make the call. We cannot guarantee that lines will be available, or that we will be able to call you on the day, but will endeavor to undertake such bids to the best of our abilities. This service is available entirely at our discretion and at the bidder’s risk. In writing Bid forms are available at the sale and/or the back of the catalogue. These should be submitted in person, by post, or by fax as soon as possible prior to the sale and we will bid on your behalf up to the limit indicated. In the event of receiving two identical bids the first one received will take precedence. All bids must be received an hour before the sale. This service is entirely at the bidder’s risk. On the internet A fully-illustrated catalogue is available on our website. Registered bidders may leave absentee bids through the website and will receive email confirmation of their bid. Live online bidding (powered by Invaluable) is also available, accessible either through our website or at www.invaluable.com. Please note that an additional 3% premium is charged by Invaluable for this live online service.
