Dell'arcano del mare / Robert Dudley (junior) Earl of Warwick and Leicester, Duke of Northumberland

Sir Robert Dudleyn arvokas karttateos Dell´Arcano del Mare, osat I-III, on varhaisin koko maapallon kattava merikartasto. Se on myös ensimmäinen merikartasto, joka on laadittu Mercatorin projektion mukaan. Kartastoon on koottu yhteen kaikki silloinen tietämys merenkulusta. Se sisältää merenkulun ja navigoinnin teoriaa, laivanrakennusta ja astronomiaa käsittelevät tekstiosuudet, 145 merikarttaa sekä 180 kuvaliitettä, joiden tekijänä on tunnettu kaivertaja Antonio Francesco Lucini. Kaiverrukset, joiden tekemiseen Lucini oli käyttänyt 12 vuotta, ovat poikkeuksellisen hienolaatuisia, kuten teoksen muukin painotyö. Dudleyn kartasto kuuluu Kansalliskirjaston A. E. Nordenskiöldin karttojen ja kartografisen kirjallisuuden kokoelmaan, joka on liitetty ainoana suomalaisena kohteena Unescon Memory of the World –rekisteriin.

I.O.D.E. Duke of Kent Chapter Fonds, 1934-1980

The I.O.D.E. as we currently know it today was founded in 1900 by Margaret Polson Murray of Montreal, who recognized a need for loyal support of Canadians departing to fight in the Boer War with the Empire forces in South Africa. She encouraged the formation of a federation of women to promote patriotism, loyalty and service to others. The first chapter was formed in Fredericton, New Brunswick on January 15th 1900. Primary chapters were formed in quick succession across Canada. In 1901, Edith Boulton Nordheimer was elected the first national president, the location of the head office became Toronto, Ontario and the federation was incorporated as Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire and Children of the Empire Junior Branch. The Duke of Kent Chapter was formed in 1934 and was disbanded in 1980. During the 1970’s the name I.O.D.E. was officially adopted. It is a federally chartered not-for-profit, charitable organization. Structured to report under the jurisdiction of the National chapter are the Provincial chapters, the Municipal chapters and the Primary chapters. The I.O.D.E. is associated with the Victory League in England and Daughters of the British Empire in the United States and it is proud of its heritage and traditions. Queen Elizabeth II is the current patron of the organization and although chapters sometimes disband there are always new chapters forming, including e-chapters that meet through 21st century electronics.

James Monroe letter of marque, ca. 1812

James Monroe (1758-1831) was appointed Secretary of State by President James Madison in 1811. He remained in this position until March, 1817, with the exception of the period from October 1, 1814, to February 28, 1815, when he was ad interim Secretary of State. Monroe encouraged President James Madison and Congress to declare war on Great Britain, feeling it would be the most effective way to change offensive British policies. The United States declared war on June 17, 1812, after which he served as Secretary of War. Monroe later became President of the United States from 1817 until 1824.

James Monroe letter of marque, ca. 1812

A letter of marque addressed to Captain James Rogers, commander of the boat Retaliation, and signed by James Monroe, secretary of state. Letters of marquee provided legal authority for an armed vessel to capture enemy ships and commit acts which would otherwise constitute piracy. The letter has no date, but was likely created during the War of 1812, and authorizes the Captain to attack and capture enemy vessels.
