manuscript, together with a corrected first 
proof and corrected revised proof by the trans¬ 
lator. These were presented to him by R. B. 
Marston, editor of the London “Fishing 
Gazette.” He also possesses one of the twenty- 
five copies of the translated edition. 
A presentation copy of Walton’s life of 
Robert Sanderson, bishop of Lincoln, has a 
special value because of the author’s initials, 
“ 1 . W.” Other autographs and holographs in¬ 
clude a signature and note written by Charles 
Cotton who added the second part of “The 
Compleat Angler,” and has indited the cryptic 
message, “I will meet you at the Crown,” and 
an autograph of Robert Venables, who wrote 
the third part of Walton’s masterpiece. 
Rev. Dr. Samuel Gardiner’s “A Booke of 
Angling or Fishing,” published in 1606, is one 
of three copies in existence, the other two be¬ 
ing in the Huth and the Bodleian libraries. In 
the Newport man’s library is also a copy of 
Lathy’s “Angler,” a poem in ten cantos; this 
single copy Thomas Cosden, a bibliophile, had 
printed on vellum and bound for his own de¬ 
light. There are supposed to be only two 
copies extant of John Whitney’s “The (jenteel 
Recreation, or the Pleasure of Angling,” a 
poem, and one of these is in Mr. Fearing’s 
collection. 
The first American book to give attention to 
the subject nearest the heart of the contempla¬ 
tive was “Ichthyologia Ohiensis,” a list of the 
fishes of the Ohio River, printed at Lexington, 
Ky., in 1820. There are only eight copies of 
this book. A book of a little later date con¬ 
tains the first treatise on angling bearing the 
American imprint. It is “A Natural History 
of the Fishes of Massachusetts,” by Dr. Jerome 
V. C. Smith, and was published by Ticknor & 
Field at Boston in 1833. The second edition, 
published in 1843, is much rarer than the first. 
Mr. Fearing has copies of both. 
These passing allusions to a few of the hun¬ 
dreds of wonderful volumes in the Fearing col¬ 
lection will serve to convey an idea of the im¬ 
possibility of giving even a cursory view of the 
library in its entirety. 
Whenever in any country a rare book on this 
subject comes into the market, Mr. Fearing is 
pretty sure to hear about it, and have an oppor¬ 
tunity to make a bid. Agents in all the big book 
markets know of his desires. He keeps standing 
in papers, American, English, and French, ad¬ 
vertisements telling of his desire for fishing 
books, and, as a result, has received letters by 
the hundreds, most of which, he remarks sadly, 
fail to offer him anything he does not now own. 
This is not strange, however, when the size of 
his library is remembered. 
Mr. Fearing’s bookplates carry a step further 
the suggestion that he feels at least a mild in¬ 
terest in piscatorial subjects. The larger one, 
showing a fish rising to a fly in deep water, is 
the work of a famous bookplate maker, Sidney 
L. Smith, and printed in green, as is the 
original, is extremely effective. The smaller, 
showing trout flies, is by an Englishman, W. 
Kirkpatrick, of Boston.—Providence Journal. 
ELEPHANTS AND “TOOTHACHE.” 
D. R. O’Sullivan-Beare. formerly British 
Vice-Consul at Pemba, contributes to the May 
number of Travel and Exploration, an illus¬ 
trated article on the Ivory Trade of Zanzibar. 
Ivory, he says, is subject to at least two dif¬ 
ferent kinds of disease, for which, however, the 
Indian merchants who control the trade have 
but one descriptive term—the Swahili word 
“n’dui,” which literally means “small-pox.” 
Both forms of ^ disease are the result probably 
of severe and prolonged inflammatory action. 
The existence of these growths and degenera¬ 
tive changes in the tusks warrant our conclud¬ 
ing from analogy that elephants are subject 
during life to “toothache” on a scale so extensive 
and in a degree so acute as to call for our 
fullest sympathy.
