John Keats; Walter Raleigh (Intro) [Very Good] [Hardco 535.18 CAD Very Good; minor rubbing/bumping to extremities, with a little fraying to ends of spine; spine and edges of covers tanned; some foxing to endpapers; remnant of a sticker to rear pastedown; top edge gilt with some tarnish and soil; spots to deckle fore edges; else Fine. No dust jacket. Beautifully printed at the Chiswick Press in London. Beautifully illustrated by R.A. Bell, with his designs on the covers as well. This copy is associated with the prominent Delaware family du Pont, specifically Thomas Coleman du Pont, the great-grandson of the founder of DuPont Company and later president of the same. Laid in is a handwritten note on T.C. du Pont's letterhead, on which he copied the verses added to Keats's memorial by General Sir Vincent Eyre when he repaired it in 1875: ""Keats! if thy cherished name be 'writ in water,'/Each drop has fallen from some mourner's cheek;/A sacred tribute, such as heroes seek,/Though often vain for dazzling deeds of slaughter;/Sleep on! Not honoured less for epitaph so meek!"" The note is dated March 24, 1897. The half-title page has a rose leaf attached, below which the inscription ""from the grave of Keats. Rome. March 24, 1897"" Below this is the initials ""T.F.B."", and on the first page of the table of contents is inscribed ""Oct [?] '97 T.F. Bayard"". Thomas Francis Bayard Jr. was a Delaware lawyer who was married to one of T.C. du Pont's cousins. Evidently du Pont and Bayard were close, and traveled together to Rome, since the inscription on the half-title page implies that Bayard collected and pasted in the rose leaf, and his is the only name actually written in the book. Probably Bayard owned the book, and du Pont gave him the note to keep in it, as a further memento of their visit to Keats's grave together. Later, in 1922, Bayard, a Democrat, narrowly defeated du Pont, a Republican, twice in races for the U.S. Senate. In 1924, du Pont won the other Senate seat, and they served in the Senate together until his health forced du Pont to resign in 1928.

The second edition is inscribed by Juliette Kinzie on the verso of the frontispiece (To Mrs. Spenser, with the kind regards of her friend and pupil The Author). The author and her husband moved to Fort Winnebago in Portage, Wisconsin in 1830 shortly after they were married. In 1834 the couple moved to Chicago where they were among the earliest settlers and remained prominent citizens of Chicago until their deaths. The present work is a combination of the author's first-hand experiences and a general history of the early days of white settlement in northern Illinois and Wisconsin. Kinzie's book is notable for its scholarly approach to and inclusion of Native people's history (the customs and culture of the Indigenous Americans who lived in the region at the time are described in her work). Each volume skillfully rebacked with the original spines laid down, each volume also with a bookplate on its front pastedown. Volume one's front joint with a repair, its leaves show light foxing. Volume two's textblock shows (at times heavy) foxing with an occasional dampspot.
