Dwarves, in the tradition of court jesters everywhere, were kept principally as entertainers but sometimes also as spies and minor officials. One of their primary functions was to detect evil aimed at the ruler and to prevent harm coming to him. They were allowed considerable licence in performing their function.

80 - 150 308 AN IRISH EARLY 19TH CENTURY CAVALRY OFFICER’S SWORD BY JOHN READ OF DUBLIN, RETRIEVED FROM THE FIELD OF WATERLOO AFTER THE BATTLE, with 29 inch (74 cm) curved single edged blade, regulation ormolu stirrup hilt, silver wire-bound leather covered grip, in its original ormolu mounted scabbard (gilding to hilt and scabbard mounts worn), the upper scabbard mount engraved “J. Read, Maker, College Green, Dublin”, and the central scabbard mount additionally later engraved “From the Field after a Charge by the Union Brigade near Ohain Road 1815”. Some service wear, the hilt quillon chipped and numerous contact marks to the cutting edge of the blade. At Waterloo, Wellington took up a defensive position along a long ridge running east-west, perpendicular to and bisected by the main Paris to Brussels road, along the line of which Napoleon was advancing. The Ohain Road ran along the crest of the ridge, directly in front of the bulk of Wellington’s cavalry and infantry. The Union Brigade of cavalry at Waterloo, so named because it comprised one English, one Irish and one Scottish regiment, made their celebrated charge across the Ohain Road at the height of the battle, to drive back Napoleon’s cavalry, who were attacking Wellington’s infantry squares along the Ohain Road. The Irish regiment of that brigade, the Inniskilling Dragoons, lost one officer killed in action at Waterloo, Lieutenant Michael Clusky, shot from his horse by a French infantryman during the charge across the Ohain Road, just after the Inniskillings had engaged the French cavalry in hand to hand combat. Note: 2015 is the Bi-Centenary of the Battle of Waterloo 1800 - 2200 309 A FLINT LOCK PISTOL, by Richards London, the octagonal barrel 6.25in (16cm), inscribed London on the rib, front and rear barrel sight, the steel lock signed Richards, (hammer broken) on three quarter walnut stock with iron furniture checkered grip, missing ramrod, 12in (30cm).

310 THREE UNUSUAL 19TH CENTURY EMBOSSSED AND BRASS MOUNTED COPPER POWDER FLASKS, all approx 8in (20cm). (3) 70 - 120 311 AN IRISH GEORGIAN MIDSHIPMAN’S DIRK BY THOMAS READ & CO. OF DUBLIN, plain 5¼ inch (13.5 cm) double edged blade of diamond section, ornate one-piece carved Irish bog-oak grip with broad cushion shaped pommel, plain brass scabbard engraved with maker’s details “Read & Co., MAKERS, 4 Parliament St.”, 10.5 inches (27cm) long overall, circa 1810. Thomas Read established himself independently at 4 Parliament Street in 1782, but only began trading as Read & Co. from 1808 onwards. Not to be confused with John Read, also a sword cutler during the same period, who had premises at 8 College Green. It is unlikely that this midshipman’s dirk was worn by an Irish midshipman of either the Royal Navy or United States Navy, both of which, by the beginning of the 19th century, has established traditions regarding the pattern of naval dirks to be worn by their midshipmen, and to which pattern this naval dirk, with its unusual bog-oak grip, does not conform. It is therefore more likely that it was worn by an Irish midshipman serving with one of the other navies of the day, perhaps the Argentinian Navy of the Irish born Admiral William Brown (1777-1857), or the Napoleonic Navy, for example.

Rare Books, Manuscripts, and Ephemera 422 TAAFFE FAMILY ARCHIVE A substantial collection of letters and documents relating to the Taaffe family of Smarmore Castle, Ardee, Co. Louth, mainly 19th century, including letters written by George Taaffe from Sebastopol during the Crimean War, where he was serving with the British invasion force. The Taaffe family traces its history in Co. Louth to the 13th century, with branches in Sligo and elsewhere. The family had strong Continental and military connections; some branches remained Catholic, and a succession of Counts and Viscounts Taaffe held high rank in the Austro-Hungarian court and army in the 18th and 19th centuries. In the early 1820s John Taaffe, one of the Smarmore family, spent some time in Italy with the circle of Byron and Shelley. The principal contents of the archive include: Family letters and documents, a large collection in two red ring-binders, mostly with postal markings, more than 50 letters mostly to/ from various members of the Taaffe family, including several letters from George Taaffe in camp before Sebastopol 1855, with interesting details of the fighting. ‘Both [the] French and Scandinavians say that no force in the world could have held the Redan [fortress] exposed to the tremendous fire that the Russians could bring to bear on it from I don’t know how many batteries ..’ [Novbr. 16th 1855]. George survived the fighting, but in 1861 a telegraphic form announces his death at sea. Earlier there is an interesting letter to George from Richard Sheil, 1828, seeking his political support, mentioning the Catholic question; a letter from Adriana Marchioness Gabuccini to her (second) husband John Taaffe 1836; various accounts, letters about military, local or legal matters, some architectural plans, miscellaneous receipts etc. [We have not investigated these letters in detail]. A series of seven manuscript letters to George Taaffe in Boulogne-Sur-Mer, 1841-2, evidently from his estate manager, one with a note from his brother, each letter written on the reverse of detailed weekly Workmen’s Accounts for the Smarmore Castle estate (manuscript entries on large printed forms), describing the daily work and costs on the estate in elaborate detail, the letters with postal markings; A printed Passport dated 1825 issued to George Taaffe, signed by Jean Fane Lord Burghersh, H.M. Envoy to the Grand Duke of Tuscany, elaborately countersigned and stamped on front and rear by a wide variety of local jurisdictions (this is of course long before the unification of Italy); another Passport issued 1841 by the Belgian Ambassador in London to Randal Taaffe; also another dated 1862 issued to John Taaffe, signed by John Earl Russell, Viscount Amberley (father of the philosopher Bertrand Russell), H.M. Secretary for Foreign Affairs; A manuscript document mostly in Oriental script (possibly Turkish or Armenian), with red wax seal, dated 1841 (paper watermarked 1839), possibly a list or inventory; Deeds, wills, marriage settlements, legal claims and opinions etc. (mostly 19th c.), including a lease of the green at Ardee to John Taaffe

O’R----y, Esq. to her Grace the Duchess of R-xbgh’, dated Dundalk January 5th 1833, 1 pp (in 3 columns), probably a Dundalk printing, ms. note addressed to ‘Mr. Taaffe’ to rear, RARE; A copy of ‘The Prince and the Wild Geese’ by Brigid Brophy, London 1983, based on the story
of Julia Taaffe (one of the Smarmore family) and the Russian Prince Gagarin, who met her in Rome 1832 and sought unsuccessfully to marry her; A large portfolio containing photographs, mostly members of the Taaffe family and their homes, some in poor condition, including a good portrait of George Taaffe in uniform circa 1920s; a few drawings and watercolours by members of the family, and a collection of miscellaneous prints; A box containing a letter-book kept by Stephen Taaffe, 1860s/70s; a manuscript German grammar/exercise book, 19th c.; three account books, 1870-75, 1870s/80s, 1890s; a rentbook, 1869/70; a bank cash book, 1860-61; two estate diaries, 1850s; five workmen’s account books, 1929-1938; a small collection of mounted photographic miniatures; various notebooks etc.; A smaller box containing various military handbooks, 1850s-1920s.

935 GEORGE DRUMMOND-FISH (IRISH, 18761938), WATERCOLOUR LANDSCAPE, west of Ireland coastal scene (possibly Co. Mayo), bays and inlets with sheep grazing on a rugged headland in foreground, 18 inches (46 cm) x 12 inches (30 cm) horizontal approx, signed at bottom left, framed and glazed. Note: George Drummond Fish saw service with the 6th Battalion Royal Irish Rifles at Gallipoli during WW1, as part of the 29th Brigade of the 10th (Irish) Division. There he produced numerous military paintings and sketches of the bleak landscape of the Gallipoli peninsula, including eight watercolour sketches that were used to illustrate Henry Hanna’s book “The Pals at Suvla Bay”, which recorded the exploits of the Irish Rugby Football Union volunteers of “D” Company of the 7th Battalion Royal Dublin Fusiliers during the Gallipoli campaign. Three of Drummond-Fish’s watercolours were also used to illustrate Bryan Cooper’s “The 10th (Irish) Division at Gallipoli”. Watercolours of Gallipoli by Drummond-Fish are also held by the National Army Museum, London, and the Royal Irish Regiment, Ballymena. In the post-war years, Drummond-Fish painted extensively in Ireland, Wales and Scotland, specialising in remote moorland and coastal scenes which, with their rugged terrain, perhaps provided a haunting reminder of the Gallipoli landscape which he had painted during the campaign of 1915. Lot accompanied by a copy of Henry Hanna’s “The Pals at Suvla Bay”, several of the illustrations within which, also depicting bays, inlets and low brush covered hills, bear a striking resemblance to this watercolour. 2015 is the Centenary of the Gallipoli Campaign See Illustration

(1) Proveance: Smarmore Caste Note: Admiral Norwich Duff (1792 – 1862) was a Royal Navy officer who entered the Royal Navy in 1805, just before his 13th birthday, serving aboard his father’s ship HMS Mars as a midshipman. In October 1805 at the Battle of Trafalgar his father was killed. He was promoted to Lieutenant in September 1811 and was appointed Flag-Lieutenant to the commander-inchief in 1814. He served on HMS Euralyus, was promoted to Commander in 1814, appointed to command of the 18-gun brig-sloop HMS Espoir, part of the naval force in the Chesapeake during the War of 1812, and later took part in the attack on New Orleans. In 1816 he was appointed to command of the 10-gun brigsloop HMS Beaver and sent to the Caribbean, where he assumed command of the 18-gun HMS Rifleman in September 1817. He returned to England in August 1818. He undertook an extensive continental European tour in 1819 of which he kept a journal. He was promoted to Post Captain in 1822. He married Helen Mary Shoolbred (daughter of East India Company Surgeon John Shoolbred 1766-1831) in 1833 at Bath, Somerset and with her produced eight recorded children. The couple’s eldest daughter, (Helen) Sophia Duff 1834 - 1930, married Boscawen Trevor Griffith (whose name later changed to later GriffithBoscawen) as a result of which Norwich became the maternal grandfather of Arthur Sackville Trevor Griffith-Boscawen 1865 - 1946, a prominent British Conservative politician during the early decades of the twentieth century. Another daughter, Henrietta, was a novelist. Duff was promoted to Rear Admiral on 8 October 1852, and to Vice Admiral on 28 November 1857. He died at Bath, Somerset, England on 21 April 1862.

1.) The Buyer: The buyer shall be highest bidder acceptable to the auctioneer, whose bid is at the hammer price. Any dispute arising in relation to same shall be settled at the auctioneer’s sole discretion. Bidders will be assumed to acting as principal in the transaction unless specific instructions are provided detailing otherwise. As such, all bidders are liable in a personal capacity for the total amount due, irrespective of agency agreements. Mealy’s contract as agents for sellers whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is generally not disclosed. Accordingly, buyers are reminded that the primary contract is between the buyer and the seller, with Mealy’s acting as agent for the seller. 2.) Inspection: Ample opportunity is given for inspection. Each purchaser, by making a bid for a lot, acknowledges that he or she is fully satisfied before bidding, by physical inspection or otherwise, as to the description, condition, and other information relating to the lot. Despite all efforts being made to ensure accurate descriptions and estimates, lots purchased are assumed to have been viewed and inspected. As such, all lots are sold with all faults and errors of description, at the buyers risk. The Auctioneers are not responsible for the correct description, genuineness, authenticity or any default or defect in any lot, and make no warranty in this respect. Estimates reflect a range of values, the lower of which usually represents the reserve price. Buyers are reminded that estimates are merely the opinion of the auctioneer, are subject to change and are in no sense definitive. 3.) Payment: All lots purchased are subject to a 20% + V.A.T. buyer’s premium. By bidding, all prospective purchasers agree in advance to pay this premium on the hammer price. Buyers attending the auction are encouraged to pay for lots purchased on the day of sale. Unless otherwise agreed in writing prior to the auction, the buyer of a lot shall pay to the auctioneer within five working days the total amount due. Notwithstanding this, the auctioneer may at its sole discretion, require a buyer to pay a deposit of up to 25% of the total amount due at the conclusion of the auction. The auctioneer may apply any payments received by a buyer towards any sums owing from that buyer to the auctioneer on any account, regardless of directions given by the buyer in that regard, whether express or implied. Payment methods include cash, Euro bank draft, cheque drawn on the buyer’s Irish bank account, EFT (subject to applicable bank charges), debit card and credit card (subject to 3% surcharge for Mastercard & Visa , 1% charge on any international debit card, and 5% surcharge for American Express). Under no circumstances can the Auctioneers accept third party cheques either in full or part payment of any lot. Non-payment by a buyer may result in any of the following actions: - proceedings against the buyer for damages for breach of contract. - recission of sale. - resale of the lot(s) without notice, after which the buyer shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due. - removal, storage and insurance of the lot(s) at the buyer’s expense. - interest may be charged, commencing after five working days from the sale date, on the outstanding debt at a rate 1% above the Bank of Ireland base interest rate on the day of purchase. - retention of lot(s) purchased at Mealy’s until the outstanding balance is settled in full - rejection of all future requests for bidding by the buyer or his/her agent. - application of proceeds of sale of items consigned to Mealy’s by the buyer in settlement of outstanding balances. 4.)

Terms & Conditions for Buyers
7.) Condition of Lots: All lots at auction are sold ‘as is’. Mealy’s act as agents for the seller and as such, are dependent on information provided by the seller. Whilst efforts are made to inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them, we are unable, in the normal course of business, to carry out detailed examinations of lots to ascertain condition. In addition, Mealy’s are not restorers, conservation experts or related professionals. Buyers are provided with ample time to examine lots and ascertain condition, and by bidding, accept the duty and responsibility for inspecting, examining and investigating lots that they intend to bid on. Imperfections, defects and other condition issues are not stated in the catalogue description. Mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. 8.) Condition Reports: Condition reports may be requested by buyers in advance of the sale and our employees may be able to assist buyers by providing such reports. However, these are provided for guidance online, without legal obligation or prejudice to standard terms and conditions of sale. Such reports are merely the gratuitous opinion of Mealy’s employees or operatives. Neither Mealy’s, nor the seller, accept any responsibility for the condition of lots or for the content of condition reports. Subsequent disputes arising in relation to condition and/or the content of such condition reports will not be entertained. 9.)

All items purchased by absentee bidders are sold as is, and are assumed to have been viewed and inspected by the purchaser. In the case of commission bids, these will be executed by Mealy’s as cheaply as possibly, having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two bidders submit identical commission bids, the auctioneer has sole discretion to determine the successful buyer, but will generally opt for the first commission bid received. Telephone bidders are reminded that telephone lines are inherently subject to technical issues. It is strongly advised that telephone bidders leave a ‘cover bid’, e.g. a commission bid with their maximum bid price, to account for situations in which technical issues result in telephone bidding problems. Once an absentee bid is received, a contractual agreement is in place and the bid cannot be revoked without express agreement in writing signed by the auctioneer. 10.)
