Note Book of a Surrey Justice
By Granville Leveson-Gower
No publisher details; printed by Rowarth & Co, London, 1885. The author was 2nd Earl Granville, styled Lord Leveson until 1846. This is a presentation copy, inscribed "With the writer's compliments" at the head of the title page and presented to the Reverend Alfred Fuller, father of A.W.F. Fuller; the Surrey Justice in question is Bostock Fuller, an ancestor of the Fuller family. There is a further gift inscription on the facing-title page from the Rev Fuller to his son, dated 9 Jany 1914 "From Father". A.W.F. Fuller has added his own signature above this. Family notes are added to this page, the title page, and throughout, with clarifications and corrections by both Rev Fuller and A.W.F. Boards are brown cloth and are in very good condition with light staining and some fading to the spine; title page and end paper are heavily toned, suggesting this has been rebound. Internally excellent condition. With this comes two very interesting documents: firstly, a letter from John Fuller, of the 57th Regiment dated December 1767, and secondly, a "chitty" referring to cash expended by Lieutenant Colonel Francis Fuller in Jamaica in March 1795. A fascinating collection.
