The Robert Trownsell Collection of Civil War Uniforms and Cartes-de-VisiteCowan’s is pleased to offer the unparalleled lifetime assembly of Generals and Brevet Brigadier General cartes-de-visite together with twenty-four superlative examples of pristine Civil War uniforms representing the eminent collection of Robert Trownsell.The array of vetted cloth is stunning and consistently of high quality with several true rarities simply not available in today’s market. Fifteen of the uniforms are identified to their owners reflecting varied service histories from dutiful to commendable ranging across both theaters of war. All are accompanied by either ironclad provenance or a chain of ownership originating with the nationally known dealer-collectors who had first acquired them. The sale is highlighted by a Civil War major general’s frock coat found in a New England GAR Hall, with an early navy coatee worn by Captain George W. Storer, who joined the “old navy” during the War of 1812 at the pinnacle of the age of fighting sail. There are seven double-breasted frocks coats belonging to staff grade officers including Colonel Charles B. Stoughton of Vermont and Lieutenant Colonel Peter Osterhaus of Missouri. Identified company grade frock coats for infantry, cavalry and artillery testify to the valor of the captains and lieutenants—respected and prosperous citizens in their rural hometowns—who earned their rank by leading from the front with fearlessness. One coat worn by Captain William B. Chapman, 2nd Ohio Light Artillery still bears the seminal tear in the left hip where Chapman was struck by a spent ball at the battle of Pea Ridge. Captain Chapman retained the offending lead and it has remained inseparable from the frock over one hundred fifty years later. Two incredibly rare enlisted nine-button frock coats, artillery and infantry, are featured herein. Both uniforms are identified to their original owners including the heavy artillery frock coat, having descended in the family of the consignor. We trust that collectors will view the collection as an indisputable opportunity to acquire a significant uniform amidst a bountiful offering. The Trownsell Collection of Brevet Brigadier Generals and Generals is legendary. Inspired many years ago to replicate Roger Hunt’s seminal Brigadier Generals In Blue as a life-long collecting endeavor, the range of Brevet Brigadiers offered today—nearly 850 cartes and post-war cabinet cards with many autographed—is likely to be the foremost compilation of its kind. As most of the premier Brevet Brigadiers were wartime Colonels who saw considerable action before attaining the coveted star at war’s end, the historical importance of the personalities broadly reflect the gamut of the Civil War itself. Colonels associated with Gettysburg and the many campaigns of the revered Army of the Potomac are

bountiful. Officers commanding the stalwart regiments in the expansive Western Theater are perhaps less collectable, but most were worthy recipients of a brevet when the intensity of the marching and fighting from Missouri to the Carolinas is truly and fairly measured. The collection comprises about 61% of the roughly 1,400 views published in Hunt. The full roster of Brevet Brigadiers is comprehensive, but a handful of the most desirable cartes must necessarily embrace Gettysburg personalities like Lt. Col. William Dudley, 19th Indiana, Lt. Col. John M. Lindley, 19th Indiana, Col. Henry Morrow, 24th Michigan, and Col. George H. Ward, 15th Massachusetts, KIA Gettysburg. Other notables include the enigmatic Marcus Reno, Captain of the 7th Cavalry, and James M. Robertson signed as Capt. 2nd Arty. Horse Baty, later Chief of Horse Artillery, Army of the Potomac. Whichever Brevet Brigadier you are looking for, chances are at least 60% that it will be found in this sale! Nearly every general officer found in Ezra Warner’s essential Generals in Blue is represented in the Trownsell collection. As these officers are universally well known it is unnecessary to indulge in redundant biography. Suffice it to say that the most desirable Generals are the Gettysburg commanders, the autographed cartes, and the Congressional Medal of Honor Winners, offered for the most part as stand-alone lots. Collectors seeking a particular subject will surely be rewarded as multiple and alternative views abound. There are 668 individual CDVs of Union Generals, typically common views, again, with many signed and/or autographed with salutation and notations on verso—the essence of what sets them apart. Arguably, the premier carte in the collection is a rare ink autographed CDV of George Gordon Meade signed beneath portrait as Maj. Gen. Comm. A of P. Gettysburg collectors will note the equally rare view of Col. James Clay Rice, 44th New York, one of the pantheon of heroes on Little Round Top, while Lot 221 is a carte of the iconic Col. Strong Vincent, killed on Little Round Top as acting brigadier. Among the plethora of autographed cartes are: Hugh Kilpatrick, John Logan, John McArthur, Alexander McCook, “Birdseye” McPherson, Wesley Merritt, John Rawlings, John Sedgwick, Lovell Rousseau, George Sykes, Alfred Terry, Henry Thomas, James Wilson, Phil Sheridan, and two autographed Shermans—including other multiples.The final facet of the collection is composed of 173 otherwise miscellaneous cartes-de-visite organized by state or subject matter. Herein are a number of interesting identified subjects (an autographed Rear Admiral Farragut, Ulrich Dahlgren, and Lt. Col. William Henry, Jr. 1st NJ commanding at Gettysburg), a few battle casualties, and even a couple of wayward Brevet Brigadiers. Another compelling aspect of this batch is the wide array of different rank insignia (particularly shoulder straps), some corps badges, and specialty emblems worn by the signal corps and pioneer branches. Finally, there are roughly thirty-six outdoor group CDVs, all believed to be published, featuring various Generals and their staff (Grant, Wool, Abel Streight and fellow Libby escapees, J.W. Davidson, Isaac Stevens, Sherman, Dodge, Lorenzo Thomas, Casey and Logan). One worthwhile research project features a group of eight unidentified officers wearing 5th Corps badges. Another depicts the field officers of the 83rd Ohio taken summer 1864.The dispersal of the Trownsell Collection of CDVs offers a “once-in-a-blue-moon” opportunity to acquire some valuable and hard to find cartes. As many of you reading this have probably contributed to the Trownsell Collection at some point in the past, now comes the inevitable time to recycle and begin anew.

1 Early Naval Officer’s Coatee and Vest Identified to Captain George Washington Storer, USN Navy blue wool nine button double-breasted full dress Naval Captain’s coatee and vest with gilt and deeply chased naval buttons. Accompanying the coat are a pair of added lieutenant’s epaulettes housed in an earlier box marked: “One Pair Fine gilt Epaulettes/Captain” dating to the later Civil War-Indian War period, housed in a kidney-shaped pebbled composition box retaining papers trade labels. Buttons are marked “W. .H. Smith, New York”. Three-button serviceable cuffs with three gold bullion strips and a single bullion vertical strip to end of cuff indicating the relatively uncommon rank of captain. Collar is trimmed in gold bullion indicating rank. Back of coat has three seams that lead to vent and tails. On each tail is a row of four buttons covered by flap and trimmed in gold bullion. Two buttons at top and bottom of tails. Coatee is lined in white with wide quilted pattern in chest, underarms and shoulder blades. Sleeves are lined in white and on the inside of right sleeve is cloth tag in ink marked “Capt. G.W.

Has chest pocket and 2 front hip pockets. Buttons are attached by brass rings on inside and marked “F.I.F. & Co.” Gilt and chased buttons. Inside left breast pocket.Accompanying the coat is a later CDV by Anthony showing an aging Rear-Admiral Storer in full dress uniform about the time of his retirement in 1862.During Rear Admiral George Washington Storer’s visit to Portsmouth in 1789, he called on Mrs. Tobias Lear, mother of his private secretary Colonel Tobias Lear. An infant was presented, the son of Samuel Storer. Certainly inspired by heroes like John Paul Jones and Lord Nelson, naval service would encompass nearly fifty-three years before the mast, long cruises both monotonous and pulse pounding, sailing the reaches from the Barbary Coast to the Horn, on South American Station, and to Africa where slavers plied their vile trade.George Washington Storer was promoted Commander in April 1828. Storer centered on Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, the last nation which permitted the importation of human cargo. Captain Storer acted as flag officer commanding the Brazilian Squadron beginning in 1847 and was personally involved in the capture of four slavers before reassigned to new duties in 1850. Following extended leave, Captain Storer took command of the Philadelphia Naval Asylum, a new government hospital set up to care for infirm and destitute former sailors. In 1857 he became President of the controversial Naval Court of Inquiry enacted by Congress in 1855 to rid the navy of inefficient and incompetent officers. During the proceedings nearly 200 officers were dismissed from the service.George Washington Storer was promoted Rear-Admiral and officially placed on the retired list on July 16, 1862. He died before the end of the war on January 8, 1864 at his home in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The admiral is buried with his wife and several children in the family plot in Proprietors Burying Ground, Portsmouth, New Hampshire. George Washington s papers from the 1817-1868 period are housed at Princeton University. Descended in the Decatur Family. Meadows to Consignor 2009$6,000 - $8,000

3 Civil War Brigadier General Frock Coat Attributed to John Cook of IllinoisNavy blue wool double-breasted frock coat. Gilt Staff Officers’ buttons in rows of two manufactured by R&W Robinson. Dark navy blue velvet collar and non-serviceable cuffs. Lining of frock coat is medium dark olive green with a close-quilted pattern throughout the chest and shoulders. Lining of sleeves is an aged solid white. Skirt of frock coat is 21” to a rough edge. Elbow is bell-shaped measuring 10” in width. Brigadier’s shoulder straps have a single silver bullion star in center. Along the edge is a single large bullion with small lines on each side. Near the collar on each side is a stitch of thread that could be used for shoulder epaulets. Rear of coat has three seams leading to a large single center vent with two buttons at top of the vent and at the middle of the vent.This frock coat reportedly belonged to Brigadier General John Cook (according to the consignor), formerly Colonel of the 7th Illinois Infantry, although the partially inked and badly frayed name tag in the collar is, unfortunately, unreadable. This coat we believe to have been Cook’s interim uniform worn prior to his promotion to Major General in August 1865

John Cook (1825-1910) entered service as Colonel of the 7th Illinois Infantry on May 9, 1861. He led a brigade in C. F. Smith’s Division at Fort Donelson where he was commended for gallantry and was soon promoted to Brigadier general on March 21, 1862. Thereafter, General Cook was assigned to the Department of the Northwest seeing some action against Sioux before taking over command of the District of Illinois headquartered at Springfield, his hometown. He remained on administrative duty for the duration of the war and mustered out on August 24, 1865 with a brevet promotion to Major General. After the war he dabbled in Illinois politics and held the concession for supplying the Rosebud Agency in the Dakota Territory in 1879. In later years Cook lived in Ransom, Michigan until his death on October 13, 1910 and was buried in Oak Ridge Cemetery, Springfield. Coat shows that the lapels were worn folded over and buttoned as opposed to the normal buttoned-to-top look of most officers. Extreme wear on collar. Old repair to armpit of right sleeve. Two small repairs to chest area are very professionally done. Some loss of stitching to 5 of the button holes. Small seam open at the top of collar which could be repaired. Overall excellent condition is unusual for a rear General Officer’s frock coat.Sexton/Juno to the Consignor 1999$12,000 - $18,000

4 Civil War Officer’s Private Purchase Sack Coat Identified as Lt. Col. Peter Osterhaus, 12th Missouri Volunteers Dark wool body double-breasted 4-button coat with notched lapels. Buttons do not have any maker’s marks. Buttons have an “I” on the shield of the eagle’s breast. Major’s oak leaves with prongs that stick through the shoulder and folded it over. Dark olive lining with wide quilted patterns in chest and shoulders. Inside breast piped pockets on each side. Sleeves are lined in white. Small center vent. Non-serviceable cuffs. Elbows measure 9” in width. Peter Osterhaus (1823-1917) remains a relatively unknown Civil War officer whose excellent service is the Western theater has been largely ignored by historians. Having fled his native Prussian in the wake of the failed 1849 Revolt, Osterhaus settled in Bellville, Illinois and achieved a measure of business success while becoming a naturalized American citizen and dabbling in Republican politics. Having relocated in 1860 to nearby St. Louis with its large German immigrant population Osterhaus was soon embroiled in the lead-up to the Civil War, doing his part by secretly training medical students to be militiamen in order to protect the vital Federal arsenal there.Shortly after Ft. Sumter, he enlisted as a 37 year-old private in the 2nd Missouri Volunteer Infantry and was quickly elected captain and then major within a few weeks. Employing his former Prussian military experience, Osterhaus excelled in training the enthusiastic but raw “Dutch” recruits and being bilingual made him even more valuable to his commanding officers, since most of his fellow soldiers spoke

primarily German. After Major Osterhaus’ commendable performance in command of an infantry battalion at Wilson’s Creek in August 1861, General Fremont appointed him colonel of the 12th Missouri which he successfully recruited and trained. Still a newly appointed regimental colonel, Osterhaus soon was acting as a temporary brigade commander under Fremont. Three months later at the battle of Pea Ridge in March 1862, Colonel Osterhaus commanded a division where his conspicuous conduct on the field earned him a brigadier’s star on June 9, 1862. Up until then his rapid if fortuitous advancement in the burgeoning volunteer army had been virtually unparalleled as the Union girded for a lengthy conflict.From that point until nearly the end of the war, Osterhaus commanded at the division level, honing his skills along the way. He was particularly innovative, becoming noted for his skill in placing artillery and its rapid employment with skirmishers. Thereafter, General Osterhaus made significant contributions in several of the major campaigns in the western theater including Vicksburg, Chattanooga, and Atlanta.Promoted to Major General in July 1864, Osterhaus was elevated to the command of the 15th Corps, Army of the Tennessee, under O.O. Howard. Following the fall of Atlanta, the corps accompanied Sherman during the chase after John Bell Hood and later the March to the Sea. Once Savannah had fallen, Osterhaus was reassigned as Chief of Staff to General E.R. S. Canby, a commander with no battle experience higher that regimental level, and contributed his own

hard-won expertise to the successful capture of the forts at Mobile Bay, the last major campaign of the war. Osterhaus oversaw the surrender of the Confederate Trans-Mississippi Army under E. Kirby Smith and signed the final surrender documents as proxy for General Canby.Immediately after the war, Osterhaus spent six months in the grueling assignment of military governor of the District of Mississippi during Presidential Reconstruction. He was finally discharged from volunteer service in January 1866 and returned briefly to St. Louis. He then was appointed United States Consul to Lyon, France, a post he held for the next eleven years which included the Franco-Prussian War.In 1877, Osterhaus returned to New York City where for several years he engaged in manufacturing and exporting hardware. Afterwards, he removed to Manheim, Germany remaining in the hardware business and later becoming U.S. Vice-Consul at Manheim. He retired around 1905 and lived another dozen years, dying in Koblenz, Germany on January 2, 1917 just before his son, Rear Admiral Hugo Osterhaus, Commander-in-Chief of the Atlantic Fleet in 1912, was called out of retirement to assist in the war effort against his father’s native land. Shortly before his death, the enigmatic Peter Osterhaus was appointed Major General, U.S. Army, becoming the last survivor of the Civil War to hold that rank. Consignor relates that this informal sack coat was found in the attic of his former home. H. Deeks to Consignor 2003$6,000 - $9,000

Roberts and other artifacts now missing were owned by a Mr. John Vose of South Portand, ME who sold the frock coat to a Mr. Douglas Morr of Edwardsville, IL in June 1970. A series of five letters dating November 1969 to June 1970 attest to the particulars of the transaction. Mrs. Vose also forwarded to Mr. Morr a booklet entitled Memorial to the Second Maine Regiment of Volunteers published by the Mount Hope Cemetery Corporation in 1968 where Roberts is buried. Also, an original copy of Col. Roberts original MOLLUS obituary from 1898 is included. At some later date well known dealer, Dave Taylor, acquired the frock coat and sold it to the current owner, the consignor.

This extraordinary frock coat is a classic example of an officer who could afford the best that money could buy. Made by a New York tailor and having the finest appointments, the uniform stands in mute testimony to Colonel Roberts’ wealth. The coat bears Tiffany & Co. buttons and ultra-fancy colonel’s shoulder straps with a luxurious (and rare) cross belt baldric bearing the emblem of the State of Maine.The thirty-two year old Charles Wentworth Roberts (1828-1898) joined the 2nd Maine Infantry as lieutenant colonel on May 2, 1861. He was advanced to colonel on August 29, 1861 and commanded the regiment throughout the 1862 campaign in Virginia. He resigned from the volunteer service on January 1863 making the coat a fairly early war example. The Bowdoin College alum was brevetted Brigadier General on March 13, 1865 “for distinguished conduct at the battle of Hanover Court House, Va.” that occurred on May 27, 1862 during the Peninsula Campaign. After an initial assault by General Porter drove the Confederates from the field, the 2nd Maine and two other New York regiments under General Martindale were left behind to guard the road junction while the rest of Porter’s force pursued the retreating Confederates. This movement exposed Martindale’s small force to attack by the bulk of General Branch’s North Carolina brigade probing the road, and which Porter had mistakenly assumed was nearby at Hanover Court House. Branch hurried a weak attack that was repelled but a second attack was reinforced and supported by artillery and “Martindale’s force was almost destroyed by the heavy fire.” Union reinforcements were called back and the Confederate line “broke under the weight of the thousands of new troops and they retreated…”Colonel Roberts returned to Bangor where he became a successful lumber merchant and banker. He died there on October 22, 1898 and was buried in the local Mount Hope Cemetery (Corporation Grounds, Lot 423). This coat is arguably the finest in the collection from a quality standpoint.Mr. John Voss, Mr. Douglas Morr, Mr. Dave Taylor$6,000 - $9,000

Additionally, several conveyance documents including the original Bill of Sale to the consignor are included.Charles Bradley Stoughton (1841-1898) was a noble soldier who commanded a fighting regiment in the famed Vermont Brigade and spent much of the war winning back the family honor after his older brother, Edwin H. Stoughton, was cashiered. From Rockingham, the young Stoughton enlisted in the 4th Vermont as 1st Lieutenant & Adjutant on August 1, 1861. Thereafter, his exploits were inextricably linked to the unequaled fighting qualities of his state’s namesake brigade highlighted by his own daring and élan.Stoughton was promoted to Major prior to the Peninsula Campaign and was present in all of the regiment’s battles that harkened his promotion to Lieutenant Colonel on July 17, 1862. At South Mountain he led a charge that captured 121 men and the colors of the 15th Virginia Infantry.” He fought at Antietam and was promoted to Colonel on November 15, 1862 when his brother was advanced to Brigadier General. Colonel Stoughton led the regiment at Fredericksburg on December 13, 1862 where the 4th Vermont suffered heavy casualties,

later reporting: My colors were completed riddled with canister and musket balls. Scarcely hanging together. The top of the staff, upon which is a brass eagle, was shot away by canister, but saved and brought away.In March 1863 the hapless General Edwin Stoughton was captured in his night clothes at Fairfax Court House during a daring raid by the grey cavalier, John Mosby. General Stoughton was later cashiered. Thereafter, Charles brazenly took it upon himself to assuage the family honor. He fought at Chancellorsville and led the regiment at Gettysburg. During the lackadaisical pursuit of Lee’s army after Gettysburg, Colonel Stoughton was severely wounded on July 10 in a sharp engagement at Funkstown, Maryland losing his right eye. The wound forced Stoughton to resign his commission on February 2, 1864.Colonel Stoughton received a brevet brigadier’s star on March 13, 1865 “for faithful and meritorious service” during the war. Stoughton married and lived in Bellows Falls, Vermont after the war practicing law. He died on January 17, 1898 and is buried in Immanuel Cemetery in Bellows Falls.

in the various campaigns in eastern Virginia and North Carolina. Recently promoted Major on October 1, 1864, Titus was severely wounded at Darbytown Road on October 7, 1864 and captured. A lively biography published in the November 19, 1917 edition of the Marion Ohio Tribune related: Major Titus witnessed and participated in some noted battles of the Civil War. He saw the Cumberland sunk, and the Congress blown up by the Merrimac…(He) was wounded several times, the most serious wound being received on October 7, 1864, when his right arm was shattered and at the same time he was captured, taken prisoner and confined in Libby Prison. Quickly exchanged, Major Titus was hospitalized and later brevetted Colonel for bravery at Darbytown Rd. Released from the hospital just before Christmas 1864, Titus was invalided home and never returned to duty being discharged for wounds on March 11, 1865.After the war Samuel Titus lived in Marion County, Ohio engaged in farming and stock raising. He attained prominence and was elected to two terms in the Ohio State Legislature, served as deputy postmaster, and was still active as a probation officer well into his late 70’s. A Mason, he was also a member of the Cooper Post, Marion, Ohio, GAR, and served a single term as Senior-Vice-Commander of Ohio.Samuel N. Titus answered the final roll call on March 1, 1921. The newspaper said of him: (He) is noted for his reticence in discussing his Civil War service. With a splendid record of accomplishments and bravery back of him to be intensely proud of, he might well boast of military honors. But on the contrary he is never heard to mention them… Such is often a genuine hero. D. Taylor to Consignor 2004$5,000 - $7,000

9 Civil War Cavalry Officer’s Nine-Button Frock Coat Belonging to Capt. Henry B. Hays, 6th US Cavalry Heavy navy blue wool cavalry officer’s nine-button single-breasted frock coat with “Smith’s Patent” captain shoulder straps and custom captain cuff braids in black silk. Gilt buttons are marked “Schuyler Hartley & Graham N.Y.” Skirt measures 19.5” to rough edge. Bell-shaped elbows measuring 9.5”. Back of coat has custom braiding right below the color and above the center vent. Vent has two buttons at top and middle of the vent. Coat has three-button non-serviceable cuffs. The lining is a very dark olive, almost charcoal in color with a close quilt pattern throughout the chest and shoulders. Sleeves are lined in white and collar is lined in black velvet. On the left inside of jacket there is a leather belt with brass clip (right side missing). Marked on the inside of right sleeve in ink : “Captain H. B. Hayes 6th Cavalry U.S. Army.” Henry Blake Hays (1829-1881) was a Pennsylvania-born diplomat, soldier, and wealthy coal baron whose extensive business interests encompassed banking, mining and railroads. Hays is best remembered for opening up the coal fields of Allegheny region and by extension building the system of narrow gauge railroads that efficiently transported the coal from the mines to the market.

Trained as a Civil Engineer, Henry Hays started his career as a diplomat. In 1850 he was was appointed attaché to the American Legation in Copenhagen later serving a private secretary to the US Minister to Denmark. Thanks to his linguistic ability, Hays traveled far afield during his early diplomatic career visiting the cities of the Byzantine Holy Land, exotic Egypt, and the Russia Empire in the wake of the Crimean War. In 1857 he returned home to employ his civil engineering credentials and immediately set to work building narrow gauge railroads as the coal industry sat posed on the cusp of expansion.With the advent of the Civil War Henry Hays used his connections to obtain a regular commission as Captain in the 3rd US Cavalry in May 1861 which was rejected on the grounds of seniority by the Senate. On August 5, 1861 Hay’s was reappointed Captain in the newly organized 6th US Cavalry then being raised at Pittsburgh, but prevaricated and took over a month to accept. During Hays’ tenure the regiment served exclusively in the Army of the Potomac participating in over one hundred fifteen engagements including every notable fight and raid undertaken by the ardent troopers of Cavalry Corps. The Northern press soon became enamored by the exploits of the Cavalry Corps where glory abounded amidst reputations that ebbed and flowed among its flamboyant crop of leaders.Hays must have speculatively been perceived as something of an outsider—an untried regular—as he remained in Pittsburgh on recruiting duty until January 1862 and periodically thereafter as mustering and disbursing officer posted to less glowing administrative duties according to his Military Record (1873). However, Hays’ Dictionary of American Biography reads differently—as if it were embellished— asserting that he was present with the 6th Cavalry from “Williamsburg, Mechanicsville, Hanover Court House, where he was recommended for promotion, Malvern Hill, South Mountain, Culpepper Court House, Upperville, Chancellorsville , Brandy Station and Beverly Ford. Unfortunately, Hay’s National Archive military records seem never to have been acquired.The records agree that Captain Hays served on the Staff of General Pleasanton from October 1863 until July 1864. A well published Brady view of Hays sporting a luxuriant mustache in the company of Pleasanton and with other staff members illustrates that Hays deliberately stood out. The captain’s uniform coat sports non-regulation sleeve braiding with a large shield badge. He wears the mother of all slough hats, a Texas-style wide brimmed slouch hat with fashionable upturned sides featuring a target-sized oval embroidered crossed sabers insignia. The Official Records prove that Pleasanton though very highly of Captain Hays when the general later wrote to the Secretary of War: “A very gallant and deserving gentlemen, who served throughout the late rebellion in the regular army and has since resigned; was so distinguished for his zeal, ability and great gallantry that I beg respectfully to recommend his case for the following brevets…” The Dictionary of American Biography further asserts that Hays was awarded “gallantry” brevets for the Peninsula Campaign, Antietam, and Gettysburg, adding that General McClellan had previously recommended that he be brevetted for “gallantry” at Williamsburg. Not one of these brevets are confirmed in Heitman or the Military Record.Nothing in the short file of post-war paperwork that accompanies his resignation letter supports the multitude of battlefield claims and brevets excepting one endorsed by General Pleasanton, and never acted upon. While on Pleasanton staff Captain Hays served intermittently as ordinance officer and provost-marshal “and commissary of musters of the cavalry corps.” The enigmatic Hays obtained a surgeon’s certificate of disability and formally resigned from the Army on July 4, 1864. His biography, written when he had attained significant wealth and influence, also makes a number of post-war claims regarding subsequent military service as “inspector of Pennsylvania State troops…with the rank of lieutenant colonel” and afterwards into 1876 as “inspector general, department of Pennsylvania” as colonel. None can be verified with the records at hand.With the opening era of post-war industry driven by westward expansion—railroads and factories powered by coal—Henry Blake Hay’s was poised to achieve infinitely more success in civilian life. He soon became Owner-President of the H.B. Hays and Brothers Coal

Railroad engaged in mining and shipping, and as a director of the Pittsburgh, Virginia and Charleston Railway, as well as several large banks—collectively netting Hays fortune and influence in the early days the “gilded age.”Hays married in the daughter of the former Mayor of Pittsburgh in 1869 and built a baronial county home that he named “Sutherland Hall.” He became a member of the prestigious MOLLUS organization, but his association with the GAR is only presumed. He died a few days short of his 52nd birthday on August 10, 1881 and was laid to rest in Allegheny Cemetery (Section 19, Lot 100), Pittsburgh. His widow, Mary Howard Hays, lived until 1921 and a surviving daughter until 1939.There are three lots (9, 10, 11) of Henry Blake Hays’ uniforms, all from the same source.

16 Presentation Civil War Artillery Frock Worn by Capt. William B. Chapman, 2nd OHLA when WIA Pea Ridge A remarkable and historic uniform, one of a few known and documented that shows the effect of a battlefield wound. Navy blue nine-button single-breasted heavy wool artillery captain’s frock coat made of a course cloth noted in other examples of early identified Ohio officer’s uniforms. Buttons are marked “Extra Quality.” Three-button serviceable cuff. Shoulder straps are red cloth with double gold bullion border gold bullion captain bars. The straps were clearly added to the coat after Chapman’s promotion in June 1862. Lining of coat is typical dark olive with wide quilted patterns under arms. White muslin lining in sleeves. Skirt is 16” to rough edge and sleeves are 8” at width. Three seams on back that lead to center vent. Vent has 2 buttons at top and middle of vent.This coat was presented to Captain William B. Chapman by the citizens of Conneaut, Ohio and was worn by him at the battle of Pea Ridge, Arkansas on March 7, 1862 where he was wounded in the left hip by a spent musket ball. Accompanying the frock coat is the original musket ball that caused the wound and the eagle button torn from the coat, both recovered by Captain Chapman and kept with the uniform. Also included is written provenance from a Chapman family member, significant documentation, and a deteriorating

19th century scrapbook containing a wartime albumen of Lieutenant Chapman wearing the very same coat with an old ink notation further documenting the provenance.Thirty-four year old William B. Chapman (1826-1895) was already “one of the foremost lawyers in the State” when he enlisted in the 2nd Ohio Light Artillery as 1st Lieutenant on July 20 1861. The battery was order to St. Louis where it served until October 1861 when it was attached to the Army of Southwest Missouri for field service. It participated in Fremont’s advance on Springfield before going into winter quarters at Rolla. The battery was commanded by Lieutenant Chapman when it joined General Curtis for the campaign against Sterling Price seeing heavy action at Pea Ridge, Arkansas on March 7, 1862. During the battle Chapman “attempted to repel advancing Confederate infantry who were trying to overrun his position. He was then struck in the left hip by a spent musket ball.” A synthesis of Chapman’s later account extracted from a newspaper informs us that “it (the ball) had sufficient residual force to knock him over. The impact severed the lower button of his frock coat. As the coat was a gift, he thought he had better try and retrieve the missing button. While looking for it, he spied the musket ball that had struck him still rolling on the ground. He picked up the ball and the button…”Chapman remained with the battery for just a few more months. He was promoted to Captain on June 19, 1862 when the 2nd OHLA was stationed at Helena but resigned and was discharged for wounds on October 11, 1862 ending his Civil War service.The family provenance consists of a short note penciled on the back of an older business card presenting: “W.K. Chapman, Chief Clerk/District Freight Office/The Pennsylvania Railroad/Telephone Blackstone 5111, Akron, Ohio.” The Pennsylvania Railroad was in operation from 1846 until it merged in 1968. The note is signed by Chapman and reads: “This military coat was presented to Ca W.B. Chapman by citizens of Conneaut, Ohio in 1861—he was wearing same when he was wounded in the battle of Pea Ridge in March 1862. (signed) W.K. Chapman.” In the same clear plastic sleeve is an unknown address for “Red Barn Antiques and Paul & Olive Benton.”An 5.25 x 7 in. oval albumen glued to a scrapbook page shows 1st Lieutenant Chapman at the time of his enlistment wearing the frock coat as well as a large hanging Masonic compass and square emblem The caption written about 1900 reads: “This is a picture of Capt. William B. Chapman taken July 1861. The coat worn was presented by the citizens of Conneaut and was pierced by an inch ball in the fight at Pea Ridge. He was a Past Master of Masonic Lodge No. 222 Evergreen Chapter at the time. The picture was taken at the request of the Masons and has hung in their hall thirty eight years.” The lead ball itself is approximately .69 showing oxidation from age, but no obvious damage. The eagle “A” button is undamaged. Both are contained in a 2.5” diameter machine turned treenware box with an orange/orange leaves painted on the lid. On judgment the common style of box dates from the late 19th century, but probably not earlier. The scrapbook with paper boards literally falling apart was compiled by Chapman’s daughter, Sarah Chapman Heyward, also contains an albumen of Capt. Chapman and surviving veterans of the 2nd OHLA at a battery reunion held at the daughter’s home in September 1897.Another item of interest in the scrapbook is a partial edition of the March 29, 1862 edition of Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Newspaper recounting the Battle of Pea Ridge, given to Sarah Chapman Heyward. A box of informative color prints from August 1973 show both Captain Chapman’s and Sarah Chapman Heyward’s homes as they appeared in 1973. One interior view of a 1970s-decorated

living room is captioned as the parlor where Captain Chapman’s body was laid out. Numerous prints of Chapman family graves are included along with photographs of an individual from North Versailles, Pa. named Bernard V. Lesniewski who we presume was the owner of the Chapman frockcoat in 1973. A published 1913 genealogy is also included.Substantial research accompanies the Chapman material comprising several files including National Archive Military and Pension records. A file titled “Copies of Newspaper Accounts” and another rather thick file containing copies of “Conneaut, Ohio Newspaper Accounts Incl. Chapman’s Letters Home.” A testimony to the souvenir bullet was described in letter dated March 9, 1862 written from Keits House, Keitsville, Missouri in which Chapman wrote: “When the last charge was made I was struck with an once round ball, just above the hip bone, on the lefty side, which came out about five inches from where it entered. I have the ball, and will bring it home when I come.”A war hero, Captain Chapman returned to Ohio in 1862 and resumed the practice of law. In 1873 he removed to Pennsylvania and in 1877 came to Bradford. The Captain and his wife Cynthia raised five children and attained prominence living in Bradford for the remainder of their lives. Captain Chapman naturally became active in the GAR and in many social and fraternal organization that fulfilled the aspirations of well-to-do veterans in the later 19th century. The local Bradford GAR Post was named in his honor.

William B. Chapman obituary states that he died on October 28, 1895 the “result of injuries received at Buffalo Oct. 18, when he was run down on the street by a passing carriage.” Private services were held at the family residence and afterwards the deceased was memorialized in a large funeral and public procession. The remains were transported via rail to Conneaut, Ohio for interment. Some years later Cynthia Chapman followed her husband in death on July 29, 1918. Turner to Consignor 2005$8,000 - $10,000

G, 8th New York Heavy Artillery and descended in the family of the consignor. Both coats belonged to the consignor’s Great Grandfather and came into his possession from “my Aunt Ida Belle Thomas Borell. Her name sake was her Any Ida Belle, her father’s sister. She sent me the families military material before she died.” Henry H. Thomas (1843-1908) was a nineteen-year-old artist (aspiring photographer) from Batavia, N.Y when he enlisted as a Private in Co. G, 8th New York Heavy Artillery on August 28, 1862. He served with the regiment for the duration, a lucky survivor of the deliberate attrition wrought by the grand strategy that drove Grant’s Overland Campaign. Thomas remained unscathed during the bloodletting at Spotsylvania and Cold Harbor, but his luck ran out when he was seriously wounded before Petersburg. Sent to hospital in Buffalo, N.Y., he recovered and returned to his regiment being appointed Corporal on November 15, 1864, then quickly promoted to Sergeant on January 1, 1865.The winter of ’64-65 saw the 8th NYHA ensconced in the misery of siege operations against Petersburg, finally emerging from the trenches to march in pursuit of the fragmenting but defiant Army of Northern Virginia during several brisk weeks that defined the forlorn Appomattox Campaign.

price of 361 officers and men killed and mortally wounded over eleven months of fighting. The survivors took part in the Grand Review of May 23, 1865 and finally mustered out on June 5.After the war Henry spent time working as an engineer in the grimy oil fields of Pennsylvania and West Virginia perfecting his knowledge of explosives, nitroglycerine and dynamite. He later relocated to Bay City, Michigan where he formed the Ajax Dynamite Works and built the first of several production plants specializing in industrial pyrotechnics. Between 1883 and 1905 Henry Thomas’ Ajax dynamite factory blew up or exploded no less than four times and burnt down a fifth…with fatalities. He accumulated wealth enough to regularly rebuild exploding dynamite plants while acquiring a baronial home in Bay City where he raised two surviving daughters from two marriages.Thomas was himself the victim of an early automobile accident. In 1908 his car was struck by a streetcar and “Henry was badly shook up but did not appear seriously hurt. He was confined at home and there suffered a stroke” and died on December 3, 1908.

It is, in fact, a throw-back to the style of construction prevalent during the Mexican War and before the adoption of the 1851 uniform regulations. A number of states recruited companies and regiments of sharpshooters including the 66th Illinois Western Sharpshooters and the 1st Michigan Volunteer Sharpshooters. Massachusetts raised a number of battalions and regiments designated “Rifles” as did Pennsylvania (1st Pennsylvania Rifles) The two famous regiments of green clad United States Sharpshooters were likewise organized from independent companies of riflemen.

CIVIL WAR UNIFORMS


William S. Harlan had early service with the 78th OVI having enlisted in Co. D. as First Sergeant on Oct. 25, 1861. He was promoted to 2nd Lieut. in December 1861 and was engaged at Shiloh and Bolivar, Tennessee in April 1862, being promoted to 1st Lieut. and Capt. the same month in the wake of several resignations that created vacancies. Captain Harlan may have been involved in early operations against Vicksburg but he, too, resigned his commission on Feb. 13, 1863. Harlan re-enlisted as Major of the 159th Ohio Infantry (National Guard) on May 5, 1864. The 159th Ohio was a 100-day Regiment sent to Harper’s Ferry and assigned to the 8th Corps, Middle Department. Almost immediately the regiment was broken up and served by company at various points including the defenses of Baltimore on guard and garrison duty. Major Harlan commanded that portion of the regiment detailed to Camp Bradford, Baltimore and is mentioned several times in Official Records correspondence during the July 1864 period. Another detachment of the 159th, about 100 men, were mounted as scouts and fought at Monocacy Junction on July 9, 1864. The regiment mustered out at Zanesville on August 24, 1864 so ending Major Harlan’s service.Parenthetically, Major Harlan’s wife was a Milhous and related to Hanna Milhous, mother of future President Richard Milhous Nixon. Another interesting aspect of this uniform pertains to its discovery and cleaning. The coat along with a number of other personal articles were discovered in the attic of an old home in Nashville, Tennessee. The frock coat had apparently hung on a wooden hanger for the better portion of a century. The consignor relates that the coat had so much dirt and accumulated grime “it could literally stand by itself.”

It was sent to the Smithsonian’s historical textile expert and cleaned using techniques similar to the period. “Five pounds of silt were removed during the cleaning process.” After conservation a fine quality uniform emerged. Sylvia to Consignor 2002$6,000 - $9,000

Ray, conveying the “coat, sword, and GAR cane” to the buyer, a well-known collector from Ohio. In the letter Mr. Ray states that “Sam Patton of Knoxville, Illinois...was my grandmother’s brother.” The letter further provides anecdotal information relating to the family heirlooms and the chain of ownership.

Samuel F. Patton (1839-1893) was from Knoxville, Knox County, Illinois where he joined Company A, 59th IL. as a private on July 17, 1861. Samuel served in the same company and regiment for the duration and took a commission as first lieutenant on October 10, 1864.

Serving primarily with the 4th Corps the regiment’s battle honors include Pea Ridge, Corinth, Stone’s River, Chattanooga, the Atlanta Campaign, and Nashville, altogether 109 battle casualties during its term of service. Post-war, Samuel Patton became a member of GAR Post #239 (G.W. Trafton) in Knoxville and served as County Sheriff in 1871-72. He died at Knoxville on February 13, 1893 and was buried in Lot No. 73, Westfall Cemetery, Victoria, Knox County. Decsended in the family to Strayer to Consignor.$3,500 - $5,000

Buttons are marked “Extra Quality” with all buttons attached by inside ring. Skirt is 18” to rough edge and 9” bell shaped elbows. Coat with typical dark olive green lining with white lined sleeves.

Wide quilted pattern in chest with close quilted pattern underarms. Piped inside left chest pocket. Back of coat has three seams that lead to center vent. Center vent has two buttons at top and middle of vent.Henry Sparhawk Hitchcock of Templeton, Massachusetts joined Co. A, 21st Mass. as Sergeant on July 19, 1861 and served with the regiment until it literally fought itself out of existence in August 1864. Initially, the regiment was assigned to Burnside’s Expeditionary Corps and the Dept. of North Carolina, seeing early action at Roanoke, New Burn and Camden. The Bay Stater’s then joined the 9th Corps, Army of the Potomac and were solidly engaged at 2nd Bull Run and Chantilly where the 21st suffered heavy casualties. Several weeks later the regiment fought at South Mountain and Antietam and just afterwards Hitchcock was commissioned 2nd Lieutenant on September 25, 1862. The 21st was in the thick of the fighting at Fredericksburg helping to carry Burnside Bridge with significant losses. After a short respite

the regiment transferred to Kentucky joining the 23rd Corps and was assigned to the defense of Knoxville during Longstreet’s brutal winter siege. On April 26, 1863 Henry Hitchcock was promoted 1st Lieutenant.The regiment then veteranized and reverted to the 9th Corps, Army of the Potomac following furlough. The 21st had been much reduced and returned to field duty numbering slightly more than 200 all ranks. The regiment marched with Grant into the bloodletting of the Overland Campaign and suffered from purposeful attrition in the Wilderness, Spotsylvania and the Bethesda Church with a grim determination. The regiment then transferred to the Petersburg front and participated in the chaos known as battle of the Crater on July 30. Here, Lieutenant Hitchcock was wounded. He remained in service month while recuperating and mustered out August 31, 1864. By August the 21st Massachusetts had been reduced to a battalion of three under-strength companies. Still, the battalion persevered and was committed to combat at the Weldon Railroad and Poplar Springs Church. The remnants were soon consolidated out of existence by GO dated October 21, 1864, forced to merge with the under strength 36th Massachusetts. The price of glory was 159 officers and men killed and mortally wounded.Henry Hitchcock returned home and lived the rest of his life in Fitchburg joining GAR Post #19 (Edwin V. Sumner) and answering the final roll call on December 7, 1897. Turner 1999 to Consignor.$3,000 - $5,000

543 Rare CDV of BBG Christopher “Kit” Carson, 1st New Mexico Cavalry Typical wartime copy shot of the famous frontiersman and Indian fighter, published by Anthony. Christopher Houston Carson (1809-1868) enlisted in July 1861 as a Lieut. Colonel and commissioned into F&S of the 1st NM Infantry. The following year, he was transferred to the 1st NM Cav. (F&S), then after the war he transferred into the NM 1st Battn. Cavalry. He earned his BBG in the “omnibus” awards of March 1865. He was assigned as commander of Fort Garland, CO in 1865. He resigned in 1867 because of poor health, and died the following year. Carson is probably best known as being in charge of the campaign against the Navajo, which resulted in the “Long Walk” to Bosque Redondo, and took the lives of hundreds of Dineh.Carson grew up on land purchased from Daniel Boone, and was a “native” of the frontier. At the age of one, his family moved to Missouri. Upon the death of his father, he tried to help support this mother and siblings. He became an apprentice saddlemaker at 14, but longed for freedom. He broke his contract and headed out on the Santa Fe Trail at the age of 15, working his way south and west doing odd jobs for whoever was also on the trail.He became a “mountain man,” trapping for Jim Bridger, the Hudson Bay Company, and others. When styles (and fortunes) changed, and the beaver were over-trapped, he started hunting. In 1842 he met John C. Fremont and was hired as his guide. He went with Fremont on two more journeys to the Great Salt Lake, and then to Vancouver. He later served as a guide for Gen. Stephen Kearney on his way to California.After the war with Mexico, Carson settled in New Mexico, and later became the Indian Agent of the Utes and Jicarilla Apaches. He learned to see the situation from the native viewpoint, and appreciated the impact of white settlement on the survival of the natives. He began to advocate for reservations for the natives, a view that would make him the obvious choice for sending the Navajos to a proposed reserve. However, since the Union was still at war, it could not spare carts, mules, food, etc. to make the journey easier for the natives, especially

the young, old, ill, etc. Although Carson was not directly involved in the Long Walk - he had left the Army and returned home - the Navajos still blame him for their hardship. And Carson, in turn, blamed the government and his superior officer, Gen. James Carleton, for not providing enough food, blankets, etc. for those at Fort Sumner/Bosque Redondo, and resulted in the deaths of hundreds more. It seems that the numbers of The People was seriously underestimated.At Fort Garland, Carson connected with many Ute friends from his days as Indian Agent. He escorted four Ute chiefs to Washington, DC in 1867. Shortly after his return, his third wife (Josefa) died of complications of childbirth, and a week later Carson himself died of an abdominal aortic aneurysm at Fort Lyons, CO. He is buried in Taos, NM. $400 - $600

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

By registering and bidding in an auction conducted by Cowan’s Auctions, Inc. (“Cowan’s”), bidders (whether present in person, by telephone, by agent, by written or telephone absentee bid instruction, or through a live internet connection) agree to be bound by these terms. These are the complete and only terms and conditions on which all property is offered for sale. Cowan’s retains the right to bar any bidder from participating in any auction and to exclude or reject any bid.1) REGISTRATION. All bidders must register their name, permanent street address (no P.O. Boxes), and telephone number prior to the auction. Unless known to Cowan’s, all registrants are required to present two forms of identification, at least one of which must include a current photograph. Bidders may be required to present a valid Visa or MasterCard. By registering with Cowan’s or submitting an absentee bid form, an individual registrant authorizes Cowan’s to obtain a copy of his or her consumer credit report and authorizes Cowan’s, at its sole discretion, to use the information contained therein to make business decisions regarding the registrant’s participation in the bidding process.2) ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS. Bidding on any item, whether in person, by phone, by absentee bid or via a live internet auction indicates the bidder’s agreement to be bound by these Terms and Conditions for Bidders. Any right of bidder under this agreement shall not be assignable and shall only be enforceable by the original buyer. The rights and obligations of the parties shall be governed by the laws of the state of Ohio. All bidders submit to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Ohio.3) TERMS OF SALE. Announcements made the day of auction take precedence over any previous communication. The auctioneer reserves the right to withdraw any lot at any time before its final sale and to reject any bid for any reason. The highest bidder for each lot acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the “buyer”. If any dispute arises as to any bidding, or between two or more bidders, at the sole discretion of the auctioneer, the successful bidder will be determined or the disputed lot shall be put up again at the last undisputed bid and resold.4) BUYER’S PREMIUM. (a) Buyer’s Premium for “Antique and Modern Firearms” auctions; the Auctioneer will collect and retain from the Buyer, as additional commission, a premium equal to 17.5% the Sale Price of each Lot up to and including $200,000, plus 10% of the amount by which the Sale Price exceeds $200,000. (b) Buyer’s Premium for “Fine and Decorative Art”, “Modern Ceramics”, “American Indian and Western Art”, “Fine Jewelry and Timepieces” , “American History” , “World at War” and any other specialized auctions; the Auctioneer will collect and retain from the Buyer, as additional commission, a premium equal to 20% the Sale Price of each Lot up to and including $200,000, plus 10% of the amount by which the Sale Price exceeds $200,000. (c) Buyer’s Premium for online, timed and other third-party bidding platforms may vary. 5) ESTIMATES AND RESERVES. Presale estimates are intended to be guides and may or may not reflect the ultimate hammer price of a lot. Cowan’s retains the right to change estimates on any lot up to time of sale. A reserve is a confidential minimum price agreed upon by the seller of the lot and Cowan’s. In the case of reserved lots, the seller has authorized Cowan’s to bid on seller’s behalf until the reserve price is reached. In no case will the reserve be higher than the low presale estimate. Cowan’s standard house reserve on all property at auction is one-half of the low estimate.6) WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS. Cowan’s makes a limited warranty only to the original buyer of record concerning the authenticity of each lot for a period of 14 days after bidder’s receipt of the purchased lot. If a buyer is not satisfied that the lot purchased is genuine, the buyer may, at his or her own expense, obtain the opinion of two mutually agreed upon recognized experts in the field of the disputed lot. If these experts determine that the item is not genuine, the buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the rescission of the sale and refund of the amount paid for the item. It is specifically understood and agreed that the rescission of the sale and refund is exclusive and in lieu of any other remedy which might otherwise be available as a matter of law or in equity, and such remedy is conditioned upon the buyer returning the property in the same condition as at the time of sale. Cowan’s shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential damages. All sales are final, with no returns or refunds except as provided in this limited warranty.Except as provided in the immediately proceeding paragraph, EVERY LOT IS SOLD “AS IS”, without any representations or warranties by Cowan’s or the seller as to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, condition or value of the property, or the correctness or completeness of the catalogue or other description of the property, and no statement, whether written or oral, shall be deemed such a representation, warranty or assumption of liability. Cowan’s makes no representation or warranty that the buyer of manuscript material, photographs, prints or works of art will acquire any copyright or reproduction rights.

Cowan’s reserves the right to hold a purchased lot until a check has cleared.A convenience fee of $15.00 will be assessed to all transactions made in the alternate payment channels: Phone payments are made available as a convenience outside Cowan’s Auctions customary payment channels, therefore these payments are qualified as payments made in the alternative payment channel. All forms of payment made using this method will be assessed the convenience fee.

By signing the absentee bid form or placing a bid by telephone, an absentee bidder authorizes Cowan’s to charge the Purchase Price for each lot for which such bidder is the successful bidder to the credit card number provided by telephone or on the absentee bid form, unless payment in full or alternative payment instruction is received within 14 days after the date of the auction. No property will be released by Cowan’s unless the Purchase Price has been paid in full.Institutional billing may be available, and should be arranged prior to the auction.Cowan’s may impose late charges of 1.5% per month (or the highest interest rate allowed) on any amount owed to Cowan’s that remains unpaid after 30 days.

Buyers are required to pay any applicable state and local sales tax.16) SHIPPING.

Cowan’s is in no way responsible for the acts or omissions of independent handlers, packers or shippers of purchased items or for any loss, damage or delay from the packing or shipping of any property.ADVICE TO INTERNATIONAL BUYERS. Cowan’s will not ship any package containing a firearm to any location other than within the United States. Buyers outside the United States must make their own shipping arrangements taking full risk for the transportation of any firearm.Property made of or containing certain plant or animal materials, such as coral, crocodile, ivory, whalebone, baleen, tortoiseshell, etc., may require a license or certificate before exportation from the United States and importation to another country. If you are purchasing items that contain these materials, you need to check the government wildlife import requirements in the countries from which and to which the item is being shipped prior to bidding. Since the export and import licenses are independently issued by the countries of origin and destination, obtaining one does not guarantee that you can obtain the other. Purchasers are responsible for making timely payments on items won at auction, even if a license is delayed or denied.17) SHIPPING CHARGES. Buyers are required to pay for all packing, shipping and insurance charges. Overseas duty charges are the responsibility of the successful bidder. Be aware that for larger and/or valuable items, shipping charges can be substantial.18) REMOVAL AND STORAGE OF PROPERTY. If purchased property has not been removed, or Cowan’s has not received shipping instructions within 21 days after the auction date, a $10 per item per day storage fee may be charged to the buyer.19) CANCELLATION OF SALE. If purchased property remains in the custody of Cowan’s for a period of 60 days following the auction, Cowan’s may, at its option, cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages any payments made by the buyer, or resell the property at auction or by any other commercially reasonable means, for the account and at the risk of the buyer, and in such event, buyer shall be liable for the payment of all deficiencies plus all of Cowan’s costs, including but not limited to storage and costs of both sales. This right of cancellation is in addition to any and all other remedies available to Cowan’s.Copyright © 2014 Cowan’s Auctions
