Very sweet all bisque doll   <b>Document Signed Also signed by William G. Cooke, hero of the Texas Revolution!</b> <u>Hamilton P. Bee</u>: (1822-97) Older brother of C.S.A. General Barnard E. Bee. Born in Charleston, S.C., he moved with his parents to Texas at the age of 14. He was the secretary of the commission that established the border between the United States and the Republic of Texas in 1839. Texas President Sam Houston dispatched Bee to open negotiations with the Comanches in 1843, which eventually resulted in the Treaty of Tehuacana Creek. He served as secretary of the Texas Senate, in the First Texas Legislature in 1846. He fought in the Mexican War, under Ben McCulloch and Jack Hays, as a member of the Texas Rangers. Was a member of the Texas legislature for 10 years, 1849-59, serving as speaker of the house, 1855-57. Elected brigadier general of Texas militia in 1861, he was commissioned brigadier general in the Confederate States Army, March 4, 1862. He commanded the Lower Rio Grande District, with headquarters at Brownsville, Texas, and he played an important role in obtaining munitions for the Confederacy from Europe through Mexico, paying for them with Southern cotton. On November 4, 1863, he and his hopelessly outnumbered command were credited with saving millions of dollars of Confederate stores and ammunition from the Union troops of General Nathaniel P. Banks. He fought in the Red River campaign under General Richard Taylor, and in the Battle of Pleasant Hill, he had two horses shot out from under him during a cavalry charge, and was wounded in the face. Subsequently he commanded a division of cavalry under General John A. Wharton, and later commanded a brigade of infantry under General Samuel B. Maxey. At the close of the war he fled to Mexico where he lived in exile until 1876 when he returned to San Antonio where he died. He is buried in the Confederate Cemetery in San Antonio, Texas. <u>Document Signed</u>: 6 1/2 x 3 1/4, imprinted Consolidated Fund of Texas, One Hundred Dollars note. This Certificate entitles Mr. H. McCullough, heirs, executors, administrators or assigns to One Share of the sum of One Hundred Dollars, in the Consolidated Fund Of Texas, created by an act of Congress entitled, "An Act to authorize the consolidation and funding of the public debt," passed on the 7th day of June 1837. City of Houston, September 1, 1837. Signed at lower left, in ink, H.P. Bee, Actg. Contoller. Also signed at lower right, Wm. G. Cooke, Stock Commissioner. More content. Very fine. <u>William G. Cooke</u>: (1808–1847) William G. Cooke, soldier and statesman, was born at Fredericksburg, Virginia, and was trained in the family drug business. He moved to New Orleans to continue his career and on October 13, 1835, volunteered for the New Orleans Greys. He arrived with the second company at Velasco, Texas, on October 25, 1835, and was elected first lieutenant the next day at Quintana. After arrival at Bexar on November 8, 1835, Cooke was elected captain of his company and raised volunteers to storm the town. Cooke led the party that captured the priest's house on the main plaza, thus forcing the Mexican capitulation, and received the flag of surrender, which he sent to Col. Francis W. Johnson, commanding officer. Cooke then volunteered for the Matamoros expedition of 1835–36. As captain he led the reformed San Antonio Greys to Goliad. Shortly after Sam Houston's arrival and impassioned speech there, Cooke offered his services to the Texas army and was sent with his company to Refugio, where they were joined by Col. James Walker Fannin, Jr., and the Georgia Battalion. Fannin ordered Cooke to San Patricio to reinforce Maj. Robert C. Morris. Cooke was subsequently left in command there when Morris, Johnson, and Col. William Grant proceeded to the Rio Grande. Cooke received Grant's letter stating his intentions to join the Mexican Federalists and, after relaying this news to Fannin, was ordered to fall back to Goliad, where he arrived on February 12, 1836. He was then sent with two Mexican prisoners to Washington-on-the-Brazos, where he joined Houston's staff as assistant inspector general. Cooke went with Houston to Gonzales and there assisted in organizing the troops. At the battle of San Jacinto he served on Houston's staff with the rank of major. Cooke was in charge of the guard on the prisoners when Antonio López de Santa Anna was captured. He prevented the angry Texans from executing Santa Anna so that he could be brought before General Houston. When Houston went to New Orleans to recover from wounds received in the battle, Cooke accompanied him, but soon returned to Texas to serve as chief clerk of the War Department. In October 1836 he was appointed stock commissioner in Houston's first administration and was responsible for issuing stock certificates and certificates to fund the public debt. He served in this office until the spring of 1839. In November 1836, Houston appointed Cooke acting secretary of war and on January 31, 1837, inspector general, an office he held until July 31, 1837. Cooke then retired from the army because of ill health and opened two drugstores in Houston. On June 9, 1837, he was made official signer of the president's name to promissory notes of the Republic of Texas, a job necessitated by injuries to Houston's arm that were aggravated by illness. The position lasted until November 11, 1839. Cooke reenlisted in the army around October 1838 and received a commission as quartermaster general of the republic. In March 1840, Mirabeau B. Lamar named him commissioner to sign treaties with the Comanches, and in this role he took part in the Council House Fight in San Antonio on March 19, 1840. On August 18, 1840, Cooke was appointed colonel of the First Regiment of Infantry, the unit that laid out the Military Road from the Little River to the Red River. Fighting Indians and starvation along the way, Cooke explored and mapped much of north central Texas. He established Fort Johnson and Fort Preston on the Red River and Cedar Springs Post on the Trinity River; at this post were the first structures built by white men at the future site of Dallas. Cooke's success in this venture prompted a grand military ball in his honor, held in the Senate chamber at Austin on February 27, 1841, and a nomination for vice president of the republic. He declined the latter and accepted instead an appointment from Lamar in April 1841 as senior commissioner on the Texan Santa Fe expedition. Cooke assisted Lamar in promoting and organizing the expedition and was to have been the chief civil authority in Santa Fe. On September 17, 1841, he was deceived by the traitor Capt. William G. Lewis and surrendered the Texans' arms. Cooke and his men were marched to Mexico City and imprisoned in Santiago Prison on December 26, 1841. They were released on June 14, 1842, and stayed at Waddy Thompson's house in Mexico City and then in Jalapa, Vera Cruz, until passage could be arranged. Cooke arrived at Galveston aboard the United States brig Boxer on August 10, 1842. Ignoring his pledge not to take arms against Mexico under pain of death, he immediately joined with Gen. Edward Burleson to expel the Mexican general Adrián Woll from San Antonio. On September 22, 1842, Cooke was wounded in Capt. John C. Hays's charge on the cannon at Arroyo Hondo. On October 25, 1842, Houston appointed him quartermaster general and chief of the subsistence department, in which capacity Cooke helped organize the infamous Snively expedition and the Somervell expedition,qqv of which he was a member until February 1, 1843. Seeking further revenge, Cooke went to New Orleans to join Edwin Ward Moore on his expedition to the Yucatán. They sailed on April 15, 1843, in the sloop-of-war Austin. Cooke participated in engagements with the Mexican steamships Montezuma and Guadaloupe, and after the Independencia joined the Texan fleet, he twice accompanied her on raiding expeditions, hoping to capture prisoners to exchange for those held in Mexican prisons. The first expedition resulted in the capture of the Mexican ship Glide, and the second brought back news to Moore that Houston had declared him a pirate, charges against which Cooke later defended him. They returned to Galveston on July 14, 1843, and Cooke received an appointment from Gen. Sidney Sherman as adjutant general of the Texas militia. Cooke was elected representative from Bexar County to the House of the Ninth Congress on September 2, 1844, and served his term as chairman of the Committee on Military Affairs. Partly as a result of his efforts on Commodore Moore's behalf, Cooke was appointed by President Anson Jones in December 1844 to replace Morgan Calvin Hamilton as secretary of war. Cooke, who had become the last commander of the regular Texas army when the troops were disbanded in 1841, was now responsible for raising troops and supplies for the United States army of occupation under Gen. Zachary Taylor. He served in this office until the spring of 1846, when he ran unsuccessfully for the Congress of the United States. He lost to Timothy Pillsbury by a narrow margin. On April 27, 1846, Cooke was appointed the first adjutant general of the state of Texas by Governor James Pinckney Henderson. He served in this office until his death. Cooke died of tuberculosis on December 24, 1847, at his father-in-law's ranch in Seguin. He was buried in nearby Geronimo and, on March 2, 1937, reinterred in the State Cemetery, Austin. Cooke's Camp, near San Antonio, Cooke County, and Cooke Avenue in San Antonio were named for him.

Brevetted captain and major for gallantry in the Mexican War. He was in command at Charleston, S.C., in April 1861, during the bombardment and capture of Fort Sumter and rose to instant fame in the Confederacy. He also saw action at 1st Manassas, Shiloh, the 1863-64 Charleston, S.C. campaign, Bermuda Hundred and Petersburg. Beauregard was a railroad executive in the 1860's and early 1870's and later served as Commissioner of public works in New Orleans and Adjutant General of Louisiana. <u>Signature With Date</u>: 4 1/2 x 2 1/4, in ink, G.T.

This brown transferware plate measures 9 inches wide. Condition is excellent - no chips, cracks, hairlines, stains, or restoration. We love the star pattern. It consists of opposing scroll designs that meet to form petals that are filled with the same zigzag patterning found on the surround. That area also has floral stripes. It has an irregular scallop on the rim with white bordering - very pleasing. This pattern is very pretty. One might group it with other such patterns, many of which make star shapes rather than florals in the center. We tried to find out more about this pattern since we have not seen it before in all the many years of dealing and collecting; however, it was not in the TCC database nor could we find it in any of the Petra Williams references. By its dense earthernware body and careful potting and transering, we would date it to the 1830 to 50 era. Its transferware shield pattern includes tiny initials that look like TB or LB. At present, we have two of these plates and a larger soup plate of the same pattern, so contact us if you are interested in multiples.  This brown transferware soup plate measures 10 1/2 inches wide by1 1/2 inches deep.

A classic personal item of the Civil War soldier, these little antique oval tin boxes with the hinged cover were a popular item for the safekeeping of every sort of personal treasure. Most commonly seen in the Parker’s Pat. 1861 variety this is the seldom seen J. L. Harlem Patent 1864 example. Remaining in excellent original condition measuring 3 1/8 X 2 1/6 inches with nice patent date and maker markings, this example will be especially appealing to the period tin collector. A nice item appropriate to the display of tobacco, stamps or sewing items and such as were commonly carried by the Civil War soldier. With the period embellishment attachment of a Cavalry shell jacket size button, we have left this treasure un-cleaned and as found to protect the integrity of its originality. All solid and functioning the tin will clean to excellent with proper care but we would leave it as is. <B>Buy with confidence! </B><I> All direct sales are backed by </I> <B><U>no questions asked</U> three day inspection with return as purchased !</B> <I>Just send us a courtesy e-mail to let us know your item is being returned per these previsions and your purchase price will be refunded accordingly.</I>  Charles Scribner & Sons, New York, 1918 hard bound publication of <I>The Perfect Tribute</I> by Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews. Considered this author’s best work about Abraham Lincoln, this little forty-seven page book recounts the morning of November 18, 1863, when a special train drew out from Washington, carrying a most distinguished group of dignitaries. In addition to the U. S. Marine Band from the Navy Yard there were judges of the U. S. Supreme Court, governmental department heads, the general-in-chief of the army and his staff and members of the president’s cabinet. Oddly enough the most prominent personage in the group would have seemed out of place to one who would not recognize the towering awkward figure with the sad drawn face of Abraham Lincoln. The party was traveling to Gettysburg to consecrate the new national cemetery there. The authors narrative of the historic occasion is stirring in its simplicity and brevity while offering the reader a special insight not provided in the many other written accounts. Of interest to World War One and women’s history enthusiast will be that this volume bears the markings of the <B>Women’s Overseas Service League</B> library in Paris, France. The Women’s Overseas Service League was formed in the World War 1 era by and for women who served overseas with the Armed Forces. Library marked with natural age and minimal period wear, this offering remains tight and in pleasing condition with no tears, repairs or other condition issues.  A classic utility of the 18th century military engineer in his construction of breastworks and fortifications, this all original fascine (pronounced faseen) knife measuring just over 15 ¾ inches in total length with a heavy hand-forged iron blade. The leather washer grip with </>rat-tail</I> tang remain intact and solid with period field use wear. A classily shaped blade presents the telltale carbon pocking characteristic of 18th century hand forge and an attractive rich patina with no chips or dings in the edge leave the impression the massive knife remains just as it was used in the time of the American Revolution. Note: The heavy <I>Bill-hook</I> fascine knife was used to clear camp sites of saplings and construct fortifications from the freshly cut foliage. The green saplings were bundled and bound firmly together in five to twelve foot lengths, trimmed square at the ends and called fascines. These fascines were used with large woven tubes also fashioned from saplings and filled with earth to form breastworks for fortification.

Acquired in a period family album, this photo is by Wendworth & Taylor of Philadelphia and bears a family identification as <I>Uncle Will – Major William Porter</I>. Our research shows that our <I>Uncle Will</I> was William Vredenbrgh Porter who was commissioned in February 23, 1864 as Major U. S. Volunteer Paymaster’s Department. He mustered out after the close of the Civil War on November 1, 1865.
