Burled Treasure
Rifles Given to Mikado
By Perry Said Valuable
"The most important piece I
picked up in Japan," said Frank,
"is this. I know it will surprise
you."
It did. Instead of a rare Jap
anese print, or an ancient bronze
or old brocade, the treasure he
held out to me was nothing other
than an old U.S. carbine a
Model 1840, as it turned out,
made by Simeon North on a pat
ent taken out by John H. Hall.
It was a regulation percussion
imoothbore, of .54 caliber, with
a 21-inch barrel. Two brass
bands bound it to the typical
walnut stock. It had the large,
quare-end trigger guard un
usual in such weapons, along
with the fishtail lever for oper
ating the breechblock.
There was no doubt whatever
of its authenticity. The barrel
was plainlv marked with the leg
end "U.S.S. NORTH MIDLtn.
TELEGRAPH COMPANY STAMP
The stamp Ted held out to me
was unlike any I had ever seen
before.
"I found this among some old
documents I bought last week,
and I was curious if you would
know any more about it than I
did, which was nothing."
I looked at the stamp and
ihook my head. It was a simple
enough item, and there was no
doubt as to its purpose, but be
yond that I knew nothing.
In the center of the piece was
the figure 10, in the style' of
block letters so popular back in
the 1870s. Surrounding the num
ber was a border of some kind of
vine leaves. Above were the ini
tials Ci.. & M. Below were the
words Telegraph Co.
Across the face of the stamp
were more initials, "P. L. W.,
but in blue ink and obviously
put on as cancellation.
"What outfit put it out?" I
asked.
"A California firm," he an
swered. "It was known as the
'Colusa Lake & Mendocino Tele
graph Co.,' and at the peak of
DEALER REGRETS REFUSAL TO
"If nothing but a set of 'mug' "
books," George i a i d, lying
down the eighth volume. "The
best I can give you is a dollar
each. Eight bucks for the lot."
"So they're 'mug' books," the
feller said. "But I can do better
than that." And he stacked up
the eight volumes in his arms
and took them out to his car.
George watched him go, with
too much of an air of satisfac
tion, it seemed to me.
"Hubert Howe Bancroft may
have been a great historian," he
said presently. "But he ran a lit
erary factory, and his eight
volume 'Chronicles of the Build
ers of Commonwealth,' put out
in 1891 in San Francisco, is pri
marily nothing more than so
many pounds of personal glorifi
cations of early Californians. I
got rid of a set, not too good con
dition, just a few months ago for
$50. But I'd had it for seven
years."
"But these were in good con
dition," I said.

ri
Conn." and I could make out
part of a date on the receiver, ap
parently an 1851. Besides, any
one interested in making fake
firearms would certainly pick
out something to counterfeit
that would bring a far higher
price than the usual top of $75
for the 1840 model.
"This has a very special sig
nificance to Navy men," Frank
said. "And the reason is that
when Commodore Perry, went
to Japan in 1853-54 to open the
country up to the blessings of the
West, one ' of his gifts to the
Mikado was several of these
carbines.
"I can't absolutely prove it,
of course, but the documentation
is pretty convincing that this is
one of those Perry gave the Em
peror! It's convincing enough,
anyway, so that I've had two of
fers for the weapon, one for S150
and another for $200."
SO RARE, NO PRICE NAMED
its operation before going out of
business in 1892, it was operat
ing 260 miles of wire, extending,
even into Napa county."
"It's a strange thing, to me at
least," he went on, " to think
that this long-gone telegraph
company operated for 19 years
and that this is the very first I
ever heard of their stamps."
I agreed that it was surprising,
feeling somewhat amazed at my
own ignorance.
"Yes," he went on, "it was
organized back in 1873 as the
Princeton, Colusa and Grand Is
land Telegraph Co. and then
changed its name when incorpor
ating some years later."
"But what of the 'value of the
stamp?" I asked.
"Very satisfactory. Scott's
United States Stamp Catalogue
Specialized lists the stamp with
out the blue initials they were
the superintendent's and were
put on when the stamps were
sold as being worth $500. But
with the initials it is so rare
the editors couldn't put a price
on it.
BUY SET OF 'MUG' BOOKS
' "I know," he remarked. "And
it's true I didn't try to sell that
set I had. Just let it sit on a shelf.
But 'mug' books get me down,
even though they do have a cer
tain value."
"I suppose I should have made
him a decent offer. Should have
bought them," he said.
When I went to see him a few
days later, I had occasion to
mention the name of Bancroft
again.
" George gave me a rueful look.
"Remember those 'Chronicles
of The Builders of the Common
wealth," he asked. "Well, there
they are." He pointed to a near
by shelf.
"I got an order for a set the
other day. The buyer will pay
$125 for it in good condition. So
I had to pay a competitor $80
for these. He'd bought them for
$40 from that fellow who came
in here."
