Manuscript in a single hand with a room-by-room inventory of the contents of Castle Hill Lodge which was owned by Edward Augustus, Duke of Kent. The inventory was taken presumably shortly after his marriage, and the contents listed reflect the high Regency taste of the owner. The Duke had purchased the Lodge in 1801 from his sister-in-law Mrs. FitzHerbert and had spent thousands of pounds for improvements commissioned from James (?) Wyatt. In addition to the detailed listing of the Duke's private rooms and the formal rooms, the inventory includes servants' quarters, outhouses, barracks, and concludes with an inventory "of sundry articles not comprised in the foregoing inventory."

Rosengarten, J. G. (Joseph George), 1835-1921. General Count de Rochambeau and The Château de Rochambeau, and related materials, ca. 1892-1895.

Title: General Count de Rochambeau and The Château de Rochambeau, and related materials, ca. 1892-1895.

Two printed articles by J. G. Rosengarten, General Comte de Rochambeau and The Château de Rochambeau (both published in 1895), bound together in an extra-illustrated volume, with a title page reading: General Count de Rochambeau and The Chateau de Rochambeau (Philadelphia: G. L. Fitzgerald & Co., 1895). The volume contains an original letter from Charles J. Stillé (dated 28 December 1892); 51 print portraits; 4 other illustrations (2 depictions of the surrender at Yorktown in 1781; a view on the Hudson; and the State House in Philadelphia in 1778); and 3 regional maps (Philadelphia; Baltimore; and New York). Most of the items, including the leaves of the articles, are inlaid. The first article is from the American Historical Register (vol. 3, no. 14, October 1895, p. [195]-208, with a different portrait substituted on the first page); and the second is a reprint from the Proceedings of the American Philosophical Society (vol. 33, no. 146, January 16, 1895, p. 353-361). Stillé's letter concerns Rosengarten's translation from Max von Eelking (The German allied troops in the North American war of independence). Of the portraits, 5 are of Rochambeau; 5 of George Washington; 3 of Charles Cornwallis; 2 of François comte de Grasse; 2 of Charles Gravier Vergennes; 2 of Charles de Houx de Vioménil; and one each of 33 other individuals. The portrait of Marie Joseph Paul Lafayette is in color. The portrait of Étienne Maurice Gérard was evidently included in error, in connection with a mistaken reference in The Château de Rochambeau to the French minister in Philadelphia in 1782 as Mr. Gérard (p. 357); the minister at that time was Anne-César, chevalier de La Luzerne, who succeeded Conrad Alexandre Gérard in the post in 1779. The volume has a typed index of illustrations at the front. The spine covering is wanting, and covers detached.

Glasse, George Henry, 1761-1809,. George Henry Glasse correspondence, 1757-1808 (inclusive), 1778-1808 (bulk).

Title: George Henry Glasse correspondence, 1757-1808 (inclusive), 1778-1808 (bulk).

The great majority of these letters are addressed to George Henry Glasse, with most of the remainder addressed to his father Samuel Glasse. The earlier letters, mostly from 1778 to 1788 in volumes 1 and 8, are largely concerned with Oxford matters, Glasse's literary interests, and his establishment at Hanwell. The bulk of the letters from 1802 onward reflect Glasse's increased preoccupation with social status as a domestic chaplain to the nobility, and concern social invitations, financial negotiations, and patronage positions. Events in Glasse's life which attract extensive attention in these letters are: his publication of a Greek translation of William Mason's Caractacus in 1781; his failed courtships of Elizabeth de Blaquiere in 1803 and Anastasia Jessey Gascoigne in 1804; and the christening of his youngest son Frederick in 1806. Several letters mention Samuel Johnson and Hester Lynch Piozzi. Glasse corresponded regularly with members of the British and French royal families, especially George Augustus Frederick, Prince of Wales (later King George IV); Adolphus Frederick, Duke of Cambridge; Edward Augustus, Duke of Kent; Louis Philippe, duc d'Orléans (later King of the French); and Louis Joseph de Bourbon, prince de Condé. Other notable correspondents include: Charles Thomas Barker (an Oxford classmate of Glasse's); William Cobbett; Glasse's father Dr. Samuel Glasse; George Horne; Sir John McMahon; Irish poet Thomas Moore; Samuel Parr; and Julie de St. Laurent.
