| Sale number: 81 Falkland Islands: Early Mail and Documents: 1847, handcarried envelope and enclosed private letter addressed to ''Richard A. Williams Esq/Port Louis'' from Governor ''R.C. Moody/Govt. House/29th Octr. 1847''. The letter records of the arrival of twelve of Williams' men, said to be ''quiet good men'' and that Moody has met with ''two Englishmen, ''Smith'' a carpenter by trade and a lad'' with whom Williams has had a ''difficulty'' which Moody feels will be easily rectified by following a ''few apparently trifling arrangements'' which Moody will suggest directly to Williams when he comes to Stanley. The letter reflects the difficult task for Governor Moody in maintaining good relations on the islands and his diplomatic skill. This newly recorded item is now the earliest surviving 'internal' letter sent in the islands. Price Realised £3200 |

| Sale number: 81 Falkland Islands: Early Mail and Documents: 1848 handcarried envelope addressed to ""Richard Williams/Hope Place/Falkland Islands"" and endorsed ""Forward by/J.C. Rennie Esq."", with enclosed letter from William Lafone dated ""Montevideo/8th July 1848"" introducing John Rennie to Williams, conveying general greetings and the message ""Don Juan requests you will send up the ""Negro Jose"" by the first opportunity offering for this Port"". The envelope address ink a little faded but a very rare and early incoming item, newly recorded. Photo. The Lafone family had a crucial influence on the development of the Falklands during this period and in November 1846 Richard Williams, appointed by Samuel Lafone to manage his cattle and other interests but regarded by many as an unnecessarily troublesome character, had arrived on the islands. Hope Place was the centre of the Lafone cattle enterprise and Uruguayan gauchos had been brought in to produce a regular supply of fresh meat for visiting ships and settlers by controlling and killing local wild cattle. The Lafones, originally Baptists from Liverpool, had moved their family interests toward Montevideo after the 'scandal' of Samuel's marriage to a Catholic lady from the high society of Buenos Aires. Half-brother William worked alongside Samuel and Don Juan Quevedo, Samuel's brother-in-law, had previously been despatched to negotiate with Governor Moody, with whom Williams had an uneasy relationship. John C. Rennie, subject of this letter of introduction, arrived in Stanley on June 18th on board H.M.S. ''Champion'' and was, it may be assumed, a relative of the new Governor of the islands, George Rennie, who had arrived in June. It seems likely that the Lafones were hopeful that Williams might form an improved working relationship with the incoming Governor, but this did not result. Price Realised £1600 |

| Sale number: 81 Falkland Islands: Early Mail and Documents: 1848, handcarried entire addressed to ''Capt. Lynch/Chilian Man of War Brig/Condor'' from M. White at ''Stanley 25th Sept 1848''. The letter ''will be handed you by Mr. Williams, who is Mr. Lafone's principal here'' who, it is advised, will be ''glad to treat with you for a cargo of spars, in exchange for his cattle, as pr. My statement to you, and H.E. Governor Mardonez, when at Port Famine''. Captain Patricio Lynch (1825-1886) served in both the British and Chilean Navies and was later one of the principal figures of the later stages of the War of the Pacific. In this year of 1848 the now abandoned colony of Port Famine (Puerto del Hambre) on the northern edge of the Strait of Magellan was deemed unsuitable for permanent settlement by the Military Governor, José de los Santos Mardones and was moved approximately 60km. north to Punta Arenas. In the National Archives in Port Stanley there is mention of a Captain White of the schooner ''Ariel'' that had come in from Patagonia at this time and was bound for Santa Cruz, who may be the sender of the letter. This newly recorded item is now the second earliest surviving 'internal' letter sent in the islands. Price Realised £2900 |

| Sale number: 81 Falkland Islands: Early Mail and Documents: 1850, legal document with outside title ""List of Furniture &c/Lavinia Cottage/Rofs Road/Stanley/E. Falkland/1850"", with watermark ""JOHN DEWDNEY/1849"", and headed within ""List of Furniture in Mr. Moore's House, Stanley, Falklands"" detailing contents of each room listed and overleaf a plan of the five lots situated on the corner of Ross Road and Villiers Street. Rare and most unusual. Photo. William Moore had arrived in Port Louis in March 1845 from Dublin to fill the post of stipendiary magistrate and had eventually been joined by his wife, Elizabeth, in 1848. Unfortunately both Governors Moody and Rennie had found his conduct highly unsatisfactory and in April 1849 he was suspended from office and returned to London. Moore had mortgaged his properties for the sum of £400 and it would appear that furnishings were included in the subsequent sale of his assets. Price Realised £350 |

| Sale number: 81 Falkland Islands: Early Mail and Documents: 1889 (Jan. 11) autograph letter written from his London home to a Miss Williams by Clements Markham in response to a fundraising request. ''I spoke to several people who had visited the Falkland Islands, and do hope that some of them would have sent subscriptions. I have been there myself; and am just publishing a life of John Davis who was the real discoverer of the Islands, which ought to be called Davis - not Falkland. I enclose my mite towards so good an object as that of building a church on those desolate shores.'' Sir Clements Robert Markham (1830-1916), geographer, explorer and writer, had been secretary of the Royal Geographical Society until the previous year when he had resigned, believing the Society to be wrong in favouring education over exploration. In 1893, however, he accepted the presidency of the Society and used his position to actively promote the exploration of the Antarctic continent through a series of landmark expeditions, particularly the National Antarctic Expedition of 1901-04, launching the career of Capt. Robert Scott. The importance of his influence and extent of his achievements are difficult to overstate. Photo. Price Realised £80 |
