Scrimshaw Panbone

Description
This panbone, or section of the back of a sperm whale’s jaw, served as the canvas for a whaleman’s freehand drawing of a busy whale hunt off the coast of the volcanic island of Ternate, one of the Spice Islands in Indonesia and the world’s main source of cloves until the 18th century.
In the lower left, a woman reaches out for her whaleman, who symbolically stands across the sea with one hand over his heart and a harpoon in the other. In her background is a tranquil domestic scene, probably their home. In the center, a fenced precinct labels the main scene. Above, on the right are the named whalers Margaret of London and Sophia of Nantucket. The remainder of the lively scene portrays seven whaleboats chasing a pod of six whales.
The artist has managed to convey loneliness between loved ones, great distance from home, an exotic and remote tropical locale, and a busy whale hunt on a single stretch of whalebone.

Face Vessel

Between the late 1600s and the Civil War, the rapid growth of the southern plantation economy and a sparse white population led to increasing reliance on the labor of enslaved blacks. Most were agricultural laborers, but a significant number were craftspeople.
Description
Between the late 1600s and the Civil War, the rapid growth of the southern plantation economy and a sparse white population led to increasing reliance on the labor of enslaved blacks. Most were agricultural laborers, but a significant number were craftspeople. Among these skilled slaves were a small number of potters working in the Edgefield District of South Carolina. Anecdotal and archeological evidence has been used to establish that enslaved potters were making face vessels in the Edgefield area before the Civil War.
The origins of the southern face vessel tradition are largely un-documented. Some enslaved black potters in South Carolina certainly began making face vessels in the mid 1800s, possibly inspired by African burial rituals or as charms used in religious ceremonies. The contrasting eyes and teeth on most of the slave-made face vessels are kaolin clay, a key ingredient in the manufacture of porcelain. The Edgefield area of South Carolina was known in the 1700s and 1800s for its rich supply of kaolin.
A number of face vessels have been linked stylistically to enslaved potters at Thomas Davies’ Palmetto Firebrick Works, which operated in the mid-1860s, and Lewis Miles’s Stoney Bluff and Miles Mill potteries operating from about 1837-1894. As late as 1900, ceramics historian Edwin A. Barber felt it was necessary to state that face vessels similar to these were not made in Africa, as was supposed by some collectors, but by African American potters who were enslaved at Edgefield potteries.
This piece, on the left, may have been at Lewis Miles’s pottery and came to the museum in the 1920s after the death of Mary Elizabeth Sinnott, a Washington, DC collector.

Presentation Trumpet, "Hibernia Fire Company"

As more American volunteer fire fighting companies began to form during the late 18th century, a need emerged for better organized efforts in combating conflagrations.
Description (Brief)
As more American volunteer fire fighting companies began to form during the late 18th century, a need emerged for better organized efforts in combating conflagrations. Engineers and officers would use “speaking trumpets” to amplify their voices over the noise and commotion of a fire scene to direct the company in effectively fighting the blaze. Two trumpet variants are reflected in the collection: plain and functional “working” trumpets that were actively used at fires, and highly decorated “presentation” trumpets. Presentation trumpets were awarded to firefighters in honor of their service, or between fire companies during visits, competitions, and musters.
This trumpet was presented to John M. Nesbitt of the Hibernia Fire Company by the Insurance Company of North America. The trumpet has decorative bands around the bell’s rim and the upper and lower portion of the trumpet. The bell also features a decorative band with a floral motif. The middle portion of the trumpet has an oval inset featuring high relief of a helmed Greek figure shown in profile view. There is a winged horse on the figure’s helmet and the oval inset is surrounded by decorative floral engravings. The other side of the trumpet has a diamond-shaped silver inlay with an inscription that reads “Presented by the Insurance Company of North America to John M. Nesbitt Esqr. of Hibernia Fire Company, Philadelphia.” A brown braided cord is attached to the trumpet by rings that are held by eagles’ beaks. John Maxwell Nesbitt was the first President of the board of directors for the Insurance Company of North America in 1792, as well as a member of the Hibernia Fire Company.

Description
Some purists say that powder horns cannot be scrimshaw in the strictest definition of the term as whaling ivory, but this little piece blurs the distinction on account of its nautical imagery.
On the outer surface a brig is engraved, with a small gaff-rigged cutter running before it. The cutter has an unusual, old-fashioned heeltapper hull, with a raised quarterdeck and a low waist. Each vessel has a human-headed sea serpent in the water next to it. Above the brig on the right is a winged horse with feathers or scales on its lower body; its tail and tongue end in arrow points. Above and behind the brig on the left is a crowned two-headed winged creature with a body shaped like a plump manatee; its tail ends in a ragged line. Across from its crown the piece is dated “MAY•12•1808”. A floral vine completes the remarkable freehand carving. A painted wooden base is tacked to the wide end as a bottom; any cap that may have topped the 3-3/4-in. high piece is missing.

Affectionate Sister
I am very full of business at present therefore I cannot rite you a long letter this opportunity. - however you may write me as long a one as you please in return for it—We sat sail from the point after I left my native habitation and we arrived in New York the Sunday morning following , where I found the family all well they were glad that I had got back they where very much In the in want of me to attend to the Store, &c . - - The passengers where Capt .

Hilcox and Peleg Wilcox the whole of us made 12 all on board a little sloop although we where crowded yet we had a good time the whole of the way down to New York,
The reason of our having so long a passage was that we had to stop In New Haven, for Capt. Pendleton had some business of consequence to attend to there , we arrived In New Haven harbour about sunrise on Thursday morning and about 9 oclock Capt. Pendleton went on shore, and was to be at the Coffee House at 3 oclock in the afternoon about 3 oclock Capt. Wilcox went ashore after him but no Capt. Pendleton was there after waiting some time for him Capt . Wilcox come on board again (for we were anchored out in the bay) and about sundown he went on shore after him again, but he was not there—nor had he been there; he then came back on board and staid till the tide and wind was fair, (which was about 2 oclock at Night)-·and then we sat sail and left Capt. Pendleton behind
We had a delightful sale down through hellgate , I had a perfect view of all the elegant houses, & Isaar, George & Nancy Randalls, Fathers house , amongst the rest had a share of the sight of my large eyes to view it. I think it a beautiful situation it is surrounded on all sides by lofty Lombardy poplar trees, but the house is not so elegant as the situation I think . I have not seen him yet to have any conversation with him, but he soon heard of my arrival, for___ not been home 10 minutes before he came __ to our house accompanied by a Gentlem'ln: and gat the letter I had for him: for I stopd to Uncle Roberts and waited till Mr. Chesebrough wrote him one; I did not think to write so long a letter when I began; but now the time draws near that I must quit my pen, and attend to the business of the Day. I had a very good time at the Point , I had some of the Crook Neck pears that Nancy Brought home. My best Respects to everybody & Love to all the family. Write me the first opportunity, for there will be on in a week from this date. God day.
